English is a shitty language.

I thought "dumbest" as an adjective was an absolute, like "the highest level of dumbness ever".

How the hell do we live in the dumbest timeline and manage to make it even dumber every time?

    It's kind of like the Industrial Revolution.

    Early on, people gasped at the idea of travelling 30 miles an hour.

    Early in the Trump campaign, people actually thought him mocking a disabled reporter would doom his chances.

    If a Boomer doesn't understand why this is dumb because they don't know who these assholes are, say "it would be like inviting Opie and Homer Pyle to talk to the troops."

    The analogy isn't great, but how stupid that sounds might resonate.

    They went to a forest in Japan that’s infamous because people go there to die. Then they played around with and mocked the corpses of people who had taken their lives.

    What would these tools have to say to service people? What possible relevant wisdom could they have? Unless these worthless removed enlist, they should be afforded nothing but mockery and floggings.

    Fucking clown world, I swear.

    A YouTuber who fakes being a boxer and stages his fights, and another YouTuber who tastelessly filmed the suicide Forrest in Japan for views. Both being invited by alcoholic “secretary of war” Pete Hesgeth to talk, and it looks like the cold open for an SNL skit

    *Shitty YouTube social media influencers.

    There are good and decent people present on that platform, as well as a bunch of really neutral parties. These two are part of the absolute shit end of the stick.
