  • I am certainly no fan of George W Bush, but what I’m saying is that every single sensible person that can come out against this orange nutboy, the better. Even if 1,000 people who thought George W bush was awesome reconsiders their vote, it’s a good thing.

    Hey, you guys have been doing great with Arab and Muslim voters recently, right? I’m sure that more than 1,000 of them would change their vote after seeing you be friendly with Bush. Surely nobody would finally come to realize that Democrats really stand for nothing after seeing that.









  • Scheduling processes to balance out their CPU usage sounds too much like communism, so instead the processes using the most resources will be given an even bigger share, so they can use it to create jobs.

    Several worms come pre-installed, because the best way to overcome viruses is through herd immunity.

    Parent processes will not be able to terminate child processes, because life begins at execution.

    There is only HTTP and not HTTPS to make sure you can’t visit any un-Christian websites in secret.

    Multithreading sounds too much like multiculturalism, so it is not supported.

    Only ASCII characters are supported, so the computer can’t communicate with China and give them our secrets.

    Only available on CISC architectures, to make sure it can’t be infected by the trans agenda.




  • Remember when I was like “It’s weird that a lot of movies have villains that had trauma that ‘turned them evil’ as a trope”

    The thing is, this isn’t even true for Voldemort. By the text of the story, he was just Intrinsically Evil™ and even as a child he was always the one hurting bullying other people and not the one being bullied. So this is one of the worst possible choices of villains they could have used.




  • Migrant workers who produce half the food in the country: Not needed for the revolutionary movement

    Women who perform hours of unpaid childcare labor in addition to a 40-hour workweek: Not needed for the revolutionary movement

    White guys who are paid $200,000 per year to eat donuts and harass minorities: Absolutely essential to the revolutionary movement, even hinting to them that they should maybe re-examine their biases should be anathema







  • A liberal might think that Ronald Reagan was a great president

    It is true, of course, that if people want the government to act in illiberal ways — by, for example, censoring speech, violating the rights of religious believers, preventing certain people from voting, entrenching racial inequality, taking private property without just compensation, mandating a particular kind of prayer in schools or endorsing a particular set of religious convictions — liberals will stand in opposition.

    Hey, could you remind me what Ronald Reagan thought about apartheid South Africa?




  • Tech companies responsible for almost all of the most commonly used programs, including the operating systems of nearly every personal computer on the planet, originating in the US and regularly cooperating with the US government: Capitalist market freedom at work!

    Chinese company puts out entertainment app which is slightly more toxic and attention-grabbing than the ones that came out before it: This is a never-before seen threat to American security.
