This post is not a joke.

There are #MAGA proudly talking about #Trump wearing diapers, and wearing Trump branded diapers themselves:

To contextualize, his fixer #MichaelCohen confirms Trump sh**s his pants and journalists at his trial have complained about a certain smell.

Dear World:

I deeply apologize, as a mentally competent American.

This cult demon has a real chance of running our country again.

The stupidity in the #USA is beyond my comprehension.

More Trump Diapers At Pennsylvania Rally

After noticing a trend of pro Donald diaper merch at rallies throughout this year, I hit up President Trump’s latest event in rural Pennsylvania last weekend with the express purpose of seeing if his faithful were still flying their diaper flag. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint.Not only were there tons of diaper hats, shirts, stickers and actual diapers themselves, but one group had a massive probably six foot “Diaper Don” Flag that they were waving in line.What makes this even more in

clarifications:

is this fake?

could be, at first. but MAGA has no sanity checks or ability to tell truth from lie. so even if it was originally trolls cosplaying: MAGA sees, MAGA believes. it is certainly real now, either way

is this ableism?

the topic is those cheering incontinence, not Trump's incontinence. in fact the ableism is by MAGA: feeling shame over something there is no shame in, sensing abuse (because abuse is what they do: projection), and thus absurdly championing incontinence

@benroyce could be a troll for sure. If you see the world through webs of conspiracies before anything else, throwing one yourself wouldn’t be hard at all. In fact, it would feel normal, right? 🤔

@gimulnautti

We're dealing with people who accept as truth without skepticism whatever they hear, as long as the statement comes from their cult in-group and reinforces their cult adherence. This is the only metric.

Could be Faux News. Could be Russian Troll Farm cosplaying as Anerican MAGA on Twitter.

Under such criteria, they will believe anything. No matter how absurd and obviously false. They lack the cognitive capacity or desire to understand legitimacy. We see this time and time again.

@benroyce A lot of people can be convinced about anything.. But that’s actually always a minority.

What’s more people and more important is the amount of people that can be convinced to fall in line. Usually out of fear.

If you have the nuts convinced to lead something, and the followers doped up with dangers of societal collapse. Whoops! You might have a majority.

@gimulnautti Yup. And combine it with lies on social media, including foreign disinfo and psyop troll brigades. And plutocrat controlled infotainment channels instead of real news, and you have a recipe for, well, the zombie apocalypse, where the zombies are brainwashed fools

"It is an old tale.

Catastrophe assaults the senses of a free nation.

Fear, a tyrant's only ally, is seized.

Democracy, a despot's greatest foe, is assaulted.

The people, liberties only defense, are subdued.

All in accomplice of those sworn, upon death, to protect them."

@benroyce @gimulnautti The shorthand for that is 'confirmation bias'.
@benroyce can we still call Trump "Grandpa Poopy-pants", though?

@AnotherDayInHell @benroyce

I'd say yes.

The Lincoln Project has a great "commercial" for tRump Diapers.

@benroyce

It's a troll until proven otherwise.

@benroyce I swear we're in season 6 of Survivor where it's just performative outrage. They want to see if they can get on TV by being ridiculous

@pixelpusher220

The joke about us living in the movie "Idiocracy" is old. But it no longer applies. Because this is far stupider than anything in that movie or what any satire could devise. I just don't understand the level of colossal stupidity out there. I genuinely cannot wrap my mind around how just so dumb people are. It's a phenomenon beyond my ability to even begin to understand.

@benroyce yep, I go back to this as amazing foreshadowing of the stupid yet to come
@pixelpusher220 why does their t shirt show the democratic donkey as cool aggressive and tough while the republican elephant looks like it is hesitating and worried?

@benroyce @pixelpusher220

Most are not evil or stupid fellow citizen Ben Royce 🇺🇸 🇺🇦, they have just been misled.

But you are certainly correct, we are close to Idiocracy.

"Once again, here's how it goes. First, a tyrant 'suspends' just a 'little' liberty, to protect democracy. Then, a tyrant monitors everyone, everywhere, all the time, to assure freedom. Finally, a tyrant imprisons or executes all those observed in abeyance of authority, to uphold liberty. No step may proceed without the other, the accomplice of a complacent people, and the corruption of a civil state."

@benroyce no wonder they can't get laid
@Waterloosunset that doesn't seem to be problem because it seems like worshipping orange god emperor is more ecstatic than sex to them
@benroyce Those Trump supporters are very late with their April fools pranks this year.

@alterelefant But that's the thing. They're not joking. They're trying to get ahead of the mockery (something they would do, projection) by "owning" the fact their orange God emperor sh**s his pants. This is them recovering their pride.

I feel weird even typing the word "pride" here as I fail to understand the applicability of that word in this context in any earthly way, yet it somehow exists in their heads nonetheless.

@benroyce This period turns out to be a particularly remarkable page in human history. "You couldn't make this sh!t up."

@benroyce

America is just one big diaper for TFG. It may be a gold plated diaper, but it reeks nonetheless.

@benroyce Making fun of an old person’s medical condition is disguising.

@marshray

me or them?

i'm not

read what i'm saying

and we talk about ableism later in thread. read that

@benroyce Yes, I read it, and I told you what I think about it.

Of all the things one could criticize Trump and his supporters for, this one is the worst choice.
It trivializes the serious crimes and validates the “TDS” narrative.

It’s bullying worthy of Trump himself.
I’m not going to judge these people for pushing back on it.

@marshray

What do you mean by this:

"I’m not going to judge these people for pushing back on it."

Are you talking about Trump supporters? They're not pushing back. Pushing back would be shaming ableism. Which would make sense.

Instead they are they're embracing incontinence. Which is deeply cringe.

@benroyce I'm saying that making fun of disabled people is wrong and the discussion ends there.
@marshray then you're being dishonest because that's not the discussion

@benroyce I’m done talking with someone who accuses me of being dishonest.

Bye

@marshray

Then I'll have the final word

I'm not accusing you. Your behavior is objectively dishonest. Ableism is not the topic

If anything the ableism is by Trump supporters who feel shame over something there is no shame in, and sense mockery (because that is what they would do) and thus, absurdly, embrace incontinence as a point of pride

*That* is the topic

Now anyone else reading can see how you're railroading this discussion. You don't even try to understand the topic here

Bye

@benroyce This is the day, Friday May 3, 2024, when I'm finally like "okay this can't be real."

@MisterMoo here's the problem though:

Let's say this is all an elaborate fake

With the MAGA cult there Is no sanity check or even small attempt to tell fact from fiction. So are the ostensibly pro-trump social media accounts pushing pride in incontinence fake or real? It doesn't matter: the cult sees, the cult believes. Period, end of thought process

So even if initially fake, at this point it is as real as anything else in the insanity that is MAGA land

@benroyce I just kinda feel like Trump needs to acknowledge he's incontinent before his supporters would make flags?

@MisterMoo

Say you're a bully. Your game is harassment and mockery.

You sense somebody out there *might* mock you instead for something you hold dear.

The game here isn't making sense. Nor adhering to some ethos or set of principles. The game is protecting your precious feelings.

So turn the vulnerability into a point of pride, so no one can play your own game against you.

Make believe you're in the middle school cafeteria where teasing and name calling rules. This is the world of #MAGA.

@benroyce If only he had a sense of humor he could use the "laugh at yourself" strategy. "Two presidents walk into a bar and one of them is shitting his pants..."
@MisterMoo #Trump is a hardcore malignant narcissist. Laughing at himself is anathema to his entire existence. I don't even know if he can conceive of the concept of laughing at himself.
@benroyce I'm not even sure he's ever been seen *actually* laughing.

@MisterMoo fascists and humor don't mix

unless we're talking about being sadistic to ourgroups

@benroyce wait a minute! What in the…? Er… uh? Yikes!

@mazigazi

you may consider yourself a connoisseur of the absurd and the fictional

but nothing can top the reality that is the Trump cult

@benroyce exactly! A lifetime studying surrealism WON’T HELP!
@benroyce
Really, no bottom (literally)…
@benroyce I’m sorry for you, having to live with such morons. Excuse me, such stupid morons. 😞

@Esssie31

it's not right to call them stupid morons...

the proper terminology is extremely stupid morons

@benroyce I don’t even have words..

Many of the rest of the world is with you!♥️ what can we do..?

@stux

defeat russia (our shared responsibility, not something i'm telling you to do)

then russian troll farm will stop inflaming american morons

@benroyce Rule of thumb:

Diapers are no replacement for visions, programs & platforms to support all the people to become fit for a livable future.

While there shouldn't be any doubt, that brilliant Joe Biden would have no issues living & moving forward with both.
Because he's working for everyone's gain, not only his own.

It's social responsibility & compassion vs. sociopathy.

@benroyce this really saddens me. I don't see how we can continue to function as a nation state with a large portion of the population so clearly in a cult of personality. I feel like we somehow need to find a way to bring these people back into the fold but I don't see how to deprogram them. At this point I would be happy to have the entire right as Mitt Romney republicans.

@Pepperbike blame plutocrat controlled infotainment channels replacing genuine news

blame foreign troll farm disinfo and psyop brigades on social media

with the money and power feeding this, this is a concerted effort and there is no coming back

all we can do is hope enough sane lucid people exist and #vote to keep the mind controlled zombies at bay
