9/10 posts in this community are stoned people or edge lords. Not sure how they all seem to miss the mark of "shower thought".
Um, excuse me..
Since when does beauty have anything to do with political opinion?
And since when does political opinion have anything in particular to do with showerthoughts?

Just a thought. It's true for me. Just going plain statistics. The fact that Trump is still in this race has left a disgusting taste in my mouth that concerns about 1/3 the population. It's just weird to have such a solid number of these people self identifying.
I don't think Trump and his ilk are known for being attractive
Fucking WHAT 😂
Couches, I hear. Couches.
Sometimes also love seats.

Plain statistics. For every ugly MF there should be some privileged idiot with every advantage. 100 million people. Think about it.
Edit: sorry, didn't mean to hurt anyone's ego.
You should delete this post fam. You have some personal issues you're projecting on strangers. Probably not very healthy in the long run and seeking validation from us retards on Lemmy most certainly won't help you in any form.

Nah, I'm good. Chose a person and random. There is 1/3 chance they are a fascist. Does that not wound you?
Edit: or are you saying I should be stoic and not be envious in any situation despite my nature. Well I'm telling you I'm not because these are shallow pools.
For the record, the number of die hard MAGAs is smaller than that, it's just a subset of the gop. Then consider that a lot of MAGAs are duped into just thinking "oh, he jokes a lot, but he's a businessman so he'll do a good job!"
So the number of actual outright fascists is going to be pretty small when we weed out the people that just fall for their promises and lies. We need to distinguish between a fascist and a fool.
Defending people who would vote for Trump as poor duped idiots. Yep, not jealous.
Quit your envy of others and just vote mate. If your stats are correct, yould still beat them 2 to 1.
No. I dont give a shit. Just like I dont care about starving kids in Africa. Its both unnecessary and pointless. Most women aren't fascists and most dudes are fat and lazy. I'm not competing with any of them.
I'd say you might need some help.
Nice try champ.
You're so tuff, did you know that?

Bruh, I own this couch.
Edit: it's funny though. Like why are you so offended it's been ~~30 mins~~ a fucking hour, move on.
Edit2: I see an immediate down vote. Can't wait. Let's hear it. No?
I only checked my comment history, and found your weird comment chain.
You can let it go ya know. I don't even give a shit.
Edit: Downvote 2 (I wasn't the first to downvote)

Ok? How did I offend you so?
Edit: It's like this dude who thinks he's dunking on a scary woke liberal but really they're just making an ass of themselves.
You can't just say the word "Statistics" in an argument without actually citing a study. It's not some magic Win Argument button.
Just going plain statistics
And completely ignoring demographics.
First, a lot of people didn’t vote, period.
Second, support differs drastically by state. Let’s pretend we’re in 2020, right after the election. Are you in California? If so, a randomly chosen eligible voter has an 88% of having registered to vote. And a registered voter had an 81% chance of having voted. So 29% of people didn’t even vote. If they voted, they had a 34% chance of having voted for Trump. So that’s already reduced the overall chance that an eligible voter voted for Trump to 24%. But if they were younger than 30, that drops from 34% to 25% (overall: 18%). (Under 40? 29% (21%).) Or if they’re Black, Latino, or Asian? 21% (15%).
So if a 20-something Latino caught your eye, then there’s only a 17% chance he, she, or they voted for Trump. (And if you use different pronouns, there’s very little chance you voted for Trump.)
On the other hand, if you’re only into older white people (50+) who’ve been doing better while Trump was president, and you hold that not voting or voting third party is the same as voting for Trump (only a Sith deals in absolutes) then there’s a 61% chance he or she voted for Trump.
At least, I think that’s how those probabilities get combined.

I'm not sure not voting is much better.
Thanks for working this out, tho. Wish I was in California.
BTW its not really about sexual desire, used the phrase caught your eye. It's about disposition. I know every ITT are paragons of society but some of us, as hard and shameful it is to admit, are just scraping by. I apologize again because that last sentence was dripping with sarcasm and you've done nothing to provoke it.
I'm not sure exactly which variety it is, but I'm diagnosing you with derangement syndrome
lmao this post is a minefield. so, you wouldn't feel jealous if they're just beautiful and not fascist?

No, I might. Beauty provokes desire. That's human.
Then their beauty and your jealousy have nothing to do with their politic opinion and you're just mixing up unrelated things in the OP
Polticial opinion speaks directly to how ugly and distasteful a person can be. Viscerally, as the observer, shading someone's outward appearance with what might be inside changes how they appear.
You suck.
I do believe that Republicans have a higher ratio of blondes and cat haters. Not sure if those things are attractive.

I'm not so naive to think democrats have some sort of monopoly on beauty. Unless you're talking inner beauty.
What crap. Since when is appearance necessarily associated with intelligence?
