In case you haven't already heard, you're living in an oppressive, authoritarian dictatorship now. Don't believe it? It's easy to see once you know what to look for.
The Babylon Bee has come up with the following list of telltale signs of dangerous authoritarianism:
-
Someone you don't like won an election because more people voted for him: This should never be allowed to happen in a democracy.
-
People walking around smiling and enjoying their lives: Those poor, uninformed victims of oppression.
-
A TV show that lost $40 million a year got canceled: What are late-night talk shows supposed to do now? Be funny?
-
Literal concentration camps being built in the imaginations of journalists: Few things are more terrifying than literal imaginary things.
-
A super-hot actress did an ad for jeans: No one wants to live in a world where they have to look at attractive people.
-
Police trampling on the rights of hardworking carjackers and muggers: True freedom means never being arrested.
-
Jews are openly welcomed on university campuses: How far the education system has fallen.
-
Funding for Iraqi Sesame Street cut: Who will teach the little children their Alif, Baa, Taa's?
-
Food stamps no longer allowed to be used for Skittles: Fascists are waging war on the rainbow in more ways than one.
-
People you disagree with get to say stuff: How can anyone think this is fair?

It's the BB, but sarcasm is, in this case, especially seems to be based on unfounded "But he's going to" bullshit.
Fun stuff. I do feel for those who are restricted to the "But Trump" faction.
I've seen a lot of video's on TT where they are crying about this. Every one of them have their nails done, hair done and using a $700 - $1000 phone to record themselves. Another common thing in these videos is they are all overweight.
Probably why some of them need to drive Escalades to the food bank.
People whining like little bitches about "Their vegetables will cost more" while eating a bag of skittles.
The liberal response to that ad was pure fkng hilarity.
