    I hope they seek the mental help that they so very clearly need.

    As someone from Washington state, I wish articles would specify D.C. in their titles. I’ve been seeing more and more omit that from the title. I guess it did the job of getting me to click for more information, I suppose.

      As someone from Maine, I wish articles would specify Oregon in their titles when mentioning Portland. I mean it was named after ours.

    I hope Trumps loss is the end of these idiots. We are not going back to the Handmaids Tale you sheltered morons.

      I worry that we as a society have turned a corner and these kind of folks have been empowered to the point there’s no going back. If they aren’t latched into Trump, it’ll just be the next DeSantis/Gaetz/MTG grifter they saddle up to.

      It was engineered in the 1930’s i keeping telling people to look into James W. Fifield Jr him with National Organization of Manufacturers (NAM) that put capitalism above Jesus in American Christianity. They did this becase churches pushing socialist community programs and collective bargaining. scared the hell out of robber barons liked JP Morgan and Joseph Pew. There is a unbroken line between Fifield and the people behind trump.

      There are some pretty hardcore Filipinos.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crucifixion_in_the_Philippines

      Crucifixion in the Philippines is a devotional practice held every Good Friday, and is part of the local observance of Holy Week. Devotees or penitents called magdarame in Kapampangan willingly have themselves crucified to reenact Jesus Christ’s suffering and death, while related practices include carrying wooden crosses, crawling on rough pavement, and self-flagellation. Penitents consider these acts to be mortification of the flesh, and undertake these to ask forgiveness for sins, to fulfil a panatà (Filipino, “vow”), or to express gratitude for favours granted. In the most famous case, Ruben Enaje drives four-inch nails into both hands and feet and then he is lifted on a wooden cross for around five minutes.[1]

          Yeah…I don’t know how long it takes for everyone, but another example:

          Gilbert Bargayo – crucified for the 15th time in Carcar, Cebu, and for the 17th time in Barangay Duljo-Fatima, Cebu City in 2012. Six-inch nails pierced his palms and feet, and took 45 minutes to all be hammered in.[21]

          I’m just kinda imagining someone taking 45 minutes to finish hammering nails through my appendages.
