Anyone else getting tired of the endless "MAGA FAFO" mockery?

[AStern]

I get that there’s a certain irony when people who bought into the lies end up suffering because of them. It is frustrating. But at what point do we stop pointing and laughing, and start recognizing the decades-long right-wing media machine that misled so many?

For 40+ years, there has been a steady drumbeat of disinformation, and the worst part? There was barely any real resistance. And when there was, it often felt like it was designed to fail. Now with the bullshit happening at the Washington Post, the defunding of NPR - it's getting worse! WAAAAAAY WORSE!

Just putting that out there.

[JustAnotherGen]

1. Me?

Never. I want the maga pubs to understand - they are guilty and there is no quarter for the unAmerican filth. Loyalty Oaths when the regime falls.

[Blues Heron]

2. What? It's the only thing keeping me going! Those stories make my day, please keep them coming! Thanks!

[Johnny2X2X]

3. I am

Because I know these Rubes will be back swallowing it hook line and sinker in 2028 to try to get Vance to finish the job of destroying the country.

[aocommunalpunch]

4. Not at all.

They live on mocking others and will only have a chance at learning when THEY are being mocked. Fuck em. It’s time to grow up.

[BannonsLiver]

5. Not even a little bit

And what would preclude someone from enjoying the FAFO while also acknowledging how they became brainwashed?

[Jerry2144]

6. They aren't self aware enough to know

The cause of their suffering. They’ll just believe the BS that it’s all the Dems’ fault they’ re suffering. Until we fix the media those people will never learn

[Torchlight]

7. They knew exactly who he was when they voted for him

Their votes weren't predicated on a lack of knowledge, their votes were predicated on hatred. I'll meet hatred with mockery rather than more hatred, but I certainly won't allow it tolerance.

[elleng]

8. Tired of the whole ball of crap.

Usually temperate and patient, but no more.

[Coventina]

9. Nope! Each and every example brings me joy.

Keep it coming, please!!

[MineralMan]

10. No, not really.

While it doesn't always happen that way, it does fairly often. So, calling it out seems appropriate pretty much any time.

The more the better.

[LW1977]

11. Hell no!

I say: bon appetit, leopards!

[Shellback Squid]

12. Nope and never, I see that you've been here since Jan 30th so be aware, we, as a group, are pretty intractable

at this point

[hatrack]

13. Nope. It's the nectar of the Gods and I enjoy it daily . . .

TBH, it's pretty shitty compensation for watching what was a pretty amazing place to live being destroyed by the minute by psychopaths and the mouth-breathing, toxic clowns who vote for them.

That said, I'll take whatever satisfaction I can find these days.

[W_HAMILTON]

14. Absolutely fucking not.

And how about this: we "start recognizing that the decades-long right-wing media machine that misled so many" when THEY recognize it.

Even those that are upset MAGA screwed them over are only upset because they got screwed over -- not because they came to some epiphany that they have been lied to all this time.

[H2O Man]

15. Does neatness count?

[EYESORE 9001]

16. Nope. It's just you.

Validation? Denied!

[Shellback Squid]

18. well said

[johnp3907]

17. We've recognized that all along.

That’s WHY we’re pointing and laughing.

[Phoenix61]

19. Not one teeny tiny bit. I relish each and every one.

They not only did this to themselves they did it to everyone else.

[purr-rat beauty]

20. No pointing and laughing here

I'm livid with these assholes empowering this monster and his ghouls. I'm convinced at their core they are cruel. You'd think mocking an individual with a disability would have lost his support, or the way he speaks about women, or elitist attitude towards us.

We're are the sane people scooped up into Jone's getaway or Koresh's compound. They are a deadly, hypocritical cult.

So no....fuck em, hope they get FO quite a bit, it's what they asked for.

[Autumn]

21. I'm good with mocking the fuckers. No pity, the truth was there. They followed

the politicians and talking heads that validated their racism. I'm going to laugh at them and enjoy any pain their party puts them through.

[EllieBC]

22. Absolutely not. Taking the high road did

fuck all for us, time and again.

So I’m going to enjoy watching the people who voted for Trump and the people who “voted their conscience” by voting 3rd party or staying home being miserable.

[JI7]

23. Nobody was misled. Trump's vileness was on full display for all to see

[obamanut2012]

24. no

[yardwork]

25. No. I'm mean that way.

I'm a deeply flawed human being whose immediate thought after Trump was reelected was "how can I get revenge for this."

I admit to hoping that all kinds of bad things happen to Trumpsters, especially the ones who are comfortable and well-off.

I don't wish ill on poor people who were desperate and believed his lies. I wish ill on people who were doing just fine under Joe Biden but greedily wanted more.

I recognize that my desire for retribution is a sin and I'm praying on it.

[Keepthesoulalive]

26. Everyday I go to YouTube

And enjoy the hell out of it. They voted to hurt others and it’s coming back at them like a flood.

[GopherGal]

29. They were/are so belligerent even when *gently* informed...

that I have little sympathy for watching them suffer the fruits of their belligerent willful ignorance.

[Keepthesoulalive]

31. And some of them are still proud and self righteous

I’m looking at you Dearborn.

[Duncan Grant]

27. We're not their parents. We're not mentoring them.

No. No. A thousand times, no. Such a bad idea.

[EdmondDantes_]

28. Yes. I've grown to the point that I don't want more suffering

Yes you can say they wanted it for others, but an eye for an eye just leaves the whole world blind. I'm not interested in punishing people because I don't think punishment alone works.

And it's not like just Trump supporters are finding out. For every instance of a Trump supporter getting deported, there's so many more who aren't Trump supporters. Same for people who will suffer from funding being cut, etc.

And then there's that when we get past this moment, if we want to rebuild America, our government, our society, that's only made more difficult if we get so invested in their suffering.

I get the appeal of wanting to see them suffer, but in my own life, my mental health got a lot better when I stopped holding on to wanting people who wronged me to suffer for it or even to acknowledge it. Instead I focused on myself, on making my own life better. The anger I held harmed me.

[1WorldHope]

35. I am with you.

We are living in an age where we are always targeted for some kind of manipulation. At the same time, I think it is getting harder to keep secrets of ill doing. I think we need to go back to the times like our grandparents and parents lived in where you did not talk about money, politics, or religion in public. Stuffing your racism works for me.
The real enemy to the people are the huge corporations who just want wage slaves. Its not rural v. urban, white v. black, immigrants v. citizens, USA against the world bc we are better than any country in the world. No. We all share one little planet together and the sooner we act like it the better.

[The Blue Flower]

30. Small satisfaction

But still better than nothing. You reap what you sow, fools.

[Think. Again.]

32. Those people weren't "fooled" by rightwing media as you seem to suggest....

Those people gleefully and willingly sucked up all the hate, racism, and cruelty.

They WANT to be able to get away with being hateful and malicious.

So no, I'm not tired of mocking them and rubbing their noses in their own putrid, vile, sadism. I enjoy watching pure justice being served to them.

[standingtall]

33. No and I want be tired of it until we are through this mess

Yes there has been decades of right wing media, but those people still have agency and therefore are responsible for their stupidity. Right wing media isn't the only source these people get information from. Some of these people have been told face to face up the bad things that would happen by their friends and even their families and chose not to listen.

[regnaD kciN]

34. Nope...

The only way we’re going to be able to save this country is if/when enough of them FO enough to realize they’ve been conned. Otherwise, will just get one Trump-clone after another.

[Biophilic]

36. Nope.

There are a lot of people going through a lot of shit from immigrants to old ladies like myself who feel deeply betrayed by so many. Before these people took power I would never have needed or even thought about taking delight in their eye opening moments. Now I look forward them. They brought hell down on us and they did it deliberately and maliciously. Nope, not tired of those stories.

[ecstatic]

37. not me. Keep it coming. Why? Because if you listen to the same

magats who are crying about getting fucked over, when asked if they'd do things differently, they always say no. Fuck 'em.
