MTG hits out at British Sky News reporter: ‘We don’t give a crap about the UK’

It works. People vote her in.
Yeah, the rest of the world forgets how many Ray-Ban and eagle and flag t-shirt wearing, truck driving, chubby, bearded, gym bro weirdos and how many vapid, bleached blonde, red lipstick wearing, pearl clutching Karen's there are in America. She's got their votes on lockdown.

I really hope that we can get all this trailer trash out of our government soon...
What a disgrace.

People are fucking stupid. The lack of school funding works.
The lack of education was always the plan. Keep white, straight (press x for doubt) America poor and dumb and isolate them further into xenophobia or the closet until they want to wage war against anyone that isn't white and straight. Meanwhile, the oligarchs preying on that get to profit off of the dumb isolationist hive mind behavior these people exhibit. It's a pyramid scheme built on the foundations of bigotry and cynicism.

God, we Americans are just pieces of shit aren’t we? I’m so sorry world, our representatives do not represent the majority.

She reeks of fear.

All republicans are.
Don't blame just Republicans, 100,000,000 people stayed home on election day. Not voting is a choice with consequences.

There’s plenty of blame to go around for the fucking fiasco we are now a part of. But this fucking article is about one of those goddamn traitor moron flag bearers.

Magic was the first thing i thought about too
Thank you all for making me feel less lonely in my dumbness.

Around 2015 someone (most likely Cambridge Analytica) found out that to drive engagement, all you need is outrage.
Ever since, it has influenced online discourse and politics worldwide. It's been a downright paradigm shift: suddenly the objective truth doesn't matter anymore. Reality is malleable.
Once you realize this you see it everywhere: engagement bait, usually in the form of outrage porn. That's the first step. The second one is echo chambers and polarization.Someone simply figured out how human brains worked and hijacked the system behind it. That's it, that's the whole deal. The world's best psychologists aren't employed by medical companiers or in academia; they've been hired by venture capitalists to find every possible flaw in the human psyche, in order to identify and then weaponize those, ad infinitum. This is not a battle than can be won by fact-checking and calling for decorum.
We've been at war for our very attention and insight for almost a decade, we're losing badly and no one even understands, let alone has a constructive way to fight back.
Apparently outrage isn't enough because we got stuck with this nightmare

MTG being an obnoxious jackass again.

"Signalgate" lol. Everything has to be a "-gate".

It's been a long time coming. Their "American Exceptionalism" thing has been leading this way for decades now. They're just not smart enough anymore to keep their fart sniffing and xenophobic comments among themselves anymore.
I think the rest of the world should just forbid all travel in and out of the US. Force them to stay in there.
-
We should replace that word with "always".

Hmmm don't they? hasn't MTG been reelected twice already?
I'm sorry but I am finding hard to believe this is not a reflection of the USA when it has taken about 20 years to get here after EVERY POSSIBLE WARNING. Best I can give you is that the majority may not be like this but could not be bothered ticking a box to avoid it

Someone must have told her that attack is the best form of defence. She obviously doesn't have much else.

"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened." ― Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

unfortunately when the nukes start flying, borders become irrelevant.
some of us are still trying to save us all from this clusterfuck and mitigate the immediate threat this administration poses. after that, idk.

This realization came way before 2015

It's like the times you want dessert and you've been given a choice between a cucumber and a rotten stinking corpse, and you say 'meh, I think they're equivalent, so maybe I'll sit it out this time'. And the other people pick the corpse and everyone gets sick eating it.
