The whole "living in their parent's basement" thing is basically a gendered insult based around the social expectations that a man needs to be focused entirely on ruthless professional improvement, earning, and providing.
In other words, a fruit of the same poisoned tree which declares women must be criticized for their looks.
"They’re not real political players." - Pretty much is the root of every dog whistle the Republican party has used the past several years. If you don't look like them, you're dismiss-able, your vote really, at the end of the day, doesn't matter.
Dude, you have got to score an interview with State Rep. Mary Dye and find out if she was a virgin before she got married! (Also, get the moniker "Virgin Mary" to stick. You know, like "Buffalo Bill" in The Silence of the Lambs.)
Try this: "Hello, my name is Daniel Savage. I am a reporter and book author in Seattle and I write about family, marriage, and morality. I'm happily married with a beautiful teenage son whom I try to teach to do the right thing. I interviewed such leaders as Brian Brown of NOM during the fight to save traditional marriage. I would love to interview Representative Dye."
Apparently it's a sport, if the world's most notorious copypasta is to be believed
Hey Faggots,
My name is John, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it’s fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures on facebook.
Don’t be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I’m pretty much perfect. I was captain of the football team, and starter on my basketball team. What sports do you play, other than “jack off to naked drawn Japanese people”? I also get straight A’s, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just blew me; Shit was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening. Pic Related: It’s me and my bitch
that's a really good line, I have to admit. completely inaccurate, but really good. trump supporters are old fat white people, like all republicans who aren't rich.
@1: Cribbing from one of the happy mutants on Boingboing, there's a sad element of truth-
"He's basically describing young men who are disappointed and frustrated with their lives. If he went into it in more detail, we would probably find that they are unemployed or unsuccessfully employed. They usually don't have a great educational background, either.
In Syria they join ISIS. In post World War I Germany, they became Brownshirts. They're looking for a way to Be Somebody. They feel that certain parts of society are holding them back from achieving their true potential. A charismatic leader can swoop them up and wield them like a hammer."
They're proud authoritarian losers, and dangerous in how they've given up and who they'd give America up to.
I'd guess a lot of Trump supporters are really just garden-variety republicans who support whichever republican is the most popular, and don't pay lots of attention to politics in general.
A lot of democrats are the same, they'll vote for whoever's the democrat on the ballot, regardless of who it is (that includes me... I'd vote for a pez dispenser over any republican).
Gotta admit I kinda dig that he's actually concerning himself with "people who matter in the overall course of humanity", even if his take on matters is horribly skewed and backward. Always assumed repubs have a pretty difficult time seeing beyond their own doorstep, let alone taking into account the scope of human civilization.
Wow, is not one person here going to comment on the term 'childless' being used as a synonym for 'losers who don't matter in the overall course of humanity'?
It's interesting that this guy feels he can judge who matters in this overall scheme, and who doesn't.
I myself am so happily, blissfully child-free I can't tell you. Many more of us need to be child-free if our continuing existence as a species is of any concern (7 billion and counting/world population DOUBLING every 40 years, etc.). The idea that NOT having chosen to procreate somehow lumps us into a negative column along with, for this guy, masturbating (don't we all masturbate?) parents'-basement dwellers is just ... damn. Wow.
Yes but which anime are they masturbating too? The oldies like UROTSUKIDOJI? The new 'cute girls doing cute things' shows that have been popping up since the success of K-On? The 'almost porn but not quite' shows like Seikon no Qwaser? Some of 'em have got to be jerking it to Free! and the black-magic animation of One-Punch Man by Madhouse Studio.
Some of us are more intelligent than to vote for the epitome of cash-and-carry government that Trump and the GOP represents, but that doesn't mean we have enough money to do much more than sit at home and rub one out.
Honestly, aren't most Trump supporters more the Monster Truck rally types? A lot of anime has complex plot/character development. Nothing wrong with Monster Trucks, either, but anime is giving them a lot of credit...
@23 so you're saying that they masturbate at monster truck rallies? I can see that. When one of those big boys rolls up, with the raised suspension and the...uh... huge, knobby tires... oh yeah... spin out for me baby, crush those cars like they were toys... mmmgyEAH!!
The people I know who jerk off to anime are among the smartest, most imaginative, and therefore most liberal people I know. (They're capable of getting off to weird magical worlds with talking animals and stuff - why would they be bothered about what gender, or how many, people someone else wanted to get off with?)
I'd imagined that Trump supporters were more likely to be the sort of people who actually buy hard-copy porn.

At least, that is what Waifu tells me.
Maybe, but he's probably married.

@5 And at this ^_^

My dentist in fuckin LOS ANGELES, no less.
Where at least his vote does no harm, in the tidal wave of Democrats.
But I make him turn off Fox News whenever I have an appointment.

Whew. Now I feel better.
