(32,645 posts)If you've ever tried to tear an envelope made of Tyvek - a synthetic paper - then you're familiar with this already. Synthetic papers and boards aren't fiber, and they can't be torn apart like paper and cardboard can.
This sign was probably screenprinted on fomecore or coroplast. The guy should have used a knife or else left it alone.
Hipsters and revolution. Gosh love em.

(14,577 posts)So this incel thing...now we're branding fascists as men who are sexually frustrated and thus involuntarily celibate?
OK. Can do.

(14,577 posts)I mean, words fail at the whole concept.
You know the irony here, though? If you really think it through, this is the group that so lacks empathy that they insist we all pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps - in other words be self-directed.
But these incel people are pretty darned 'other-directed,' blaming everyone else, and particularly women who refuse to have sex with them, for everything evil in their lives.
Think about that for a minute.
Sigh.

(60,010 posts)Actually publicly saying "we are so pathetic that no woman wants to be near us, but it's THEIR fault".
They all need to be locked in a detention center until they reconcile those 2 ideas.

Anybody know how I can watch this? My 'puter won't read tweets.
Thanks...

(82,849 posts)One of the big shots for their little group is an ignoramus named Joey Gibson in Vancouver, Washington. He's tried to stage some rallies in Portland (I'm guessing for the martyr value of getting his ass kicked by a bunch of crunchy granola types). The chap in the video is the epitome of the Patriot Prayer "movement." The fact that the woman videoing him laughs at him and offers to help him and then laughs some more prompts no response at all from this loser. It's hilarious.

Whatever that material was, they ought to make cars out of it.

(14,174 posts)Watching the slow realization dawn on him that he wasn't the smartest man on the street. Thats where these deplorables are the most vulnerable, having a liberal sound smarter than they are. They are like helpless children in a cloud. Thats why they hate facts and love using verbal diarrhea in any panel interview to drown others in. They think they deserve to win every time. They'll cheat to prove that point if they have to. And any even small victory for the other, anyone not in their tightly controlled sphere, is an abomination to them.
Watching the way he pathetically just kept going way past the point any normal person would have, because he didn't have a plan B. It was always plan A, which was the best one because he was the one that thought it up...., just like Trump's philosophy, which he would win at, of course, ripping the sign and go laughing down the street at the Libtards.
I can't wait to watch Trump's face when it is finally dawning on him that, no, he's not all that and a Trump steak. When his criminal behaviour finally catches up with him, at the worst possible time (for him).
