"He's probably just joking" is something I heard so much over the past few years about things the right has been spewing. THEY ARE NOT JOKING, THEY ARE NEVER JOKING! I don't know how this is a hard thing to understand.

Also, if they are lying about these things, why did they vote for a liar? A lot of people who called agenda 2025 fake or lies still voted for the party representing it.

Trump says 'I don't kid' after aides argue he was joking about slowing coronavirus testing.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

Also, why the fuck is it cool for a politician to joke about doing shit? Literally any joke is not cool.

Fuck, my neighbor says the same every time Trump says something awful. "Trump just talks a lot of shit, he's just joking."

Fuck you neighbor, you approved leadership from the guy who encouraged putting kids in cages.

I'm sorry I thought we were having an election for president, not jester.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 18 points 5 days ago

How can someone who is completely devoid of humor be joking?

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 18 points 5 days ago

They lie all the time.

we just don't get to know when it's happening. People that trust those guys go with a "this is too horrible, so they must be lying" heuristic, that has been proven not to work several times. The problem is that an heuristic is not supposed to be reliable, and it's hard to make them see beyond the noise.

For people who apparently joke so much they sure as shit ain't funny
