Trump Cultist Brother (old white guy) & Trump Cultist Sister

When we were discussing prison sentences, sex trafficking, rapists, etc, I brought up politicians who assault women ie: pussy grabber, (I didn't SAY "pussy grabber&quot he bellowed:

Him: I KNOW YOU'RE REFERRING TO AND I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT! AS SOON AS HE WALKED OUT OF THAT INTERVIEW, SOME WOMAN CAME BY AND RUBBED HER TITS ON HIM. WOMEN ARE SLUTS!

Continuing the convo about prisons and about their Social Security (prisoners lose theirs in fed prisons I guess?):

Him: SOCIAL SECURITY IS GOING BROKE IN 2035!

Me: It is NOT going broke and never will go broke. In about 2035 or so, EVERYBODY will get a 20% CUT in their benefits unless the cap is removed, retirement age raised, or tax increased.

THEY'LL HAVE TO RAISE TAXES OR RAISE THE RETIREMENT AGE TO 70! MILLENNIALS AIN'T GONNA GO FOR THEIR TAXES BEING RAISED FOR SOCIAL SECURITY!

Me: I don't know enough of them to know if they would or not but raising the tax, removing the $120K cap and/or raising the retirement age are all possibilities to cover the shortfall -- but it will NOT be "broke".

My dumbass Trump Cultist sister chimes in: IT AIN'T GOIN BROKE, THEY BEEN SAYIN THAT FOR YEARS!

Me (repeating for the brain-dead): It is NOT going broke and never will but in about 2035 or so, EVERYBODY will get a 20% CUT in their benefits unless the cap is removed, retirement age raised, or tax increased to cover the shortfall.

The belligerant STUPID is painful.

THIS is why I live ON. THE. OTHER. SIDE. OF. THE. COUNTRY. from these idiots.

They believe all women and girls should be enslaved to men. Elliot Roger, etc. Also sometimes called "INCELS" (involuntarily celibate). Whiney little self-entitled rapists who believe women and girls owe them sex as soon as they're of age + should have zero human or reproductive rights + believe women are the cause of all that is evil and bad in the world. They hate 'em.

EDIT: Not Dylan Roof but rather Elliot Roger (Roof was a white supremacist - just as vile but in a different way).

Info: https://msmagazine.com/2018/08/28/mapping-male-supremacy-movement-mens-rights-activists-pick-artists-rape-culture/

While incels are focused almost primarily on sex, the concerns of Men’s Rights Activists (MRAs) are broader: they believe men are being railroaded daily by scourges of feminism that include false rape accusations, alimony settlements and demands for equal pay. MRA leader Gavin McInnes neatly encapsulated the paternalism of their philosophy when he bragged that he was helping women understand the “dangers” of feminism.

It’s not unusual to find MRA and incel language on alt-right message boards. In one instance from altright.com, an anonymous poster berated white women for their selfish choices. (“Chad” is the incel term for a man who is attractive to women.)

Your ‘freedom’ has brought white people and our land nothing but hardship. You whores [are]… sieving our entire race just because you want to sleep with Chad for a night and have one of his criminal bastard genes, and then pretend to have a career, instead of going for a breadwinner and breeding six warriors while being a happy hausfrau.

Meanwhile, Pick Up Artists (PUAs) are longtime players in the misogynist manosphere—and their putative leader, Daryush Valizadeh, who goes by RooshV, has dedicated himself to decrying feminism, belittling women and teaching men how to be an effective sexual predator.

Incels and PUAs believe that date rape is not only defensible, but is a skill that can and should be taught. RooshV himself has publicly defended violent incel tendencies, including in a Twitter post the day after a violent incel attack in Toronto left dozens dead or injured.

Mine are COMPLETELY on the other side of the country. We should switch places. They're in a blue state and I'm in a red one (well, I guess more accurately, purple). They piss and moan constantly. They should go live in MS or somewhere.
