        The Boomers became Republicans when the GOP pretended to be sane, namely Eisenhower. That’s what their parents did, and that’s what they do. They also grew up in an area that produced males with John Wayne Syndrome: real men never admit fault, never apologize, fight at the drop of a hat like overgrown 15 year old boys, and never show any emotion except for anger and contempt. Empathy is for pinko commies, and women.

        The thing is they’ve been brainwashed by Fox, Right Wing AM radio, Right Wing news rags. Who know exactly how to pander to, and enrage these people. It’s intentional. It’s why those propaganda organs exist: to enrage old white people.

        It’s not an excuse, but that’s what’s happened.

        The only way to get through to these people is to fuck with their money, and their embarrassing gay, or interfacial lovin’ kids. And even then they’ll find a way to blame it on “The Libruls.”

          See, this is what saddens, and enrages me. Ivermectin does not work.

          They should be using WD-40 and duct tape. Any fool knows that!

            It’s all wrapped up with a beautiful bow, the biggest, best bow ever, people are saying that, a bow like you’ve never seen before, everyone knows there is no better bow in terms of wrapping.

                You know, I was going to think up a funny reply for this one but in truth, in 40something years, I’ve only seen the man cry twice. He is not someone who likes to display emotion (except for anger).

                So no, only weak men cry?
