"I am driving a lifted DODGE RAM TRUCK"

"My lifted DODGE RAM TRUCK has BLINDING WHITE LED headlights positioned EXACTLY at EYE LEVEL. "

"I am currently TAILGATING you in the RIGHT LANE even though you’re going TWENTY MILES AN HOUR over the speed limit and the LEFT LANE is OPEN."

"There are MONSTER ENERGY and FOX RACING stickers on the rear windshield of my lifted DODGE RAM TRUCK."

"There are PERFECTLY CLEAN mud tires and MASSIVE CHROME RIMS on my lifted DODGE RAM TRUCK."

"I make THIRTY-ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS a year and thought that that was a WISE FINANCIAL DECISION."

"I bring cases of BUD LIGHT to girls at high school parties while my wife and children are at home."

"My lifted DODGE RAM TRUCK has a GUN RACK which holds the AR-15 that I bought at WAL-MART."

"YETI COOLERS kick ass!"

Did...did you just fill out a madlib?

All that product placement just highlights how much of right-wing ideology is really just brand loyalty.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

I used to have fun with these guys.

I used to have one of the old Geo Metro cars from the 1990's. This was a 3-cylinder, 55 horsepower car that got prius-level gas mileage. The fun part is people who know what it is would break any law and do any amount of damage to their car just to avoid being behind it, even if I was going at or above the speed limit.

There was a spot in town that almost always had a cop running a speed trap. And early every morning on the way home from work, I would use the little car to bait Mr. Dodge Ram or Mr. Super Duty right past the speed trap at 70 mph.

How does this differ from saying that women belong in the kitchen, or that being black means you rob people?

Stereotyping has, for my entire lifetime, until the past few years (trump I guess, until trump...), been something you'd only really see happening among the Republican types.

Now it's become almost an exclusively Dem thing...

I get the whole "statistically speaking" aspect (I have a LOT of neighbors with lifted ram trucks on very clean mud tires) of your comment, but that same logic is behind all the other stereotypes as well... How is yours good and theirs bad?

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

What this moronic, completely asinine "argument" intentionally neglects to consider is that being a douchebag is not the same as being born to specific parents. No one here gives a flying fuck about your campaign to discourage votes for Biden.

"Judging me for what I choose is equivalent to me judging others for what they are!"

[–] HolyDiver@aussie.zone 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

the first stereotype you mentioned is a lot more harmful, and targets minority groups or people that faced lots of oppression through history so there’s an existing power dynamic that they reinforce, whereas the classic truck driving republican is a much more represented group that has never faced historic discrimination.

Another reason is that politically, their right wing ideology is definitively also a lot more harmful to many people as the core of right wing ideology is power through oppression, and so mimicking the forms of oppression they enact on others is somewhat empowering for less represented and less powerful groups.

That’s my impression of it at least

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

It's not even a logical comparison. They say a sign of intelligence is making good analogies...

[+] aelwero@lemmy.world -17 points 10 months ago (2 children)

So it's not wrong to stereotype, as long as you can claim "moral superiority" while doing so?

I personally think that's been the narrative the entire time... All I can offer as an ambivalent is that it don't make it right, but at least your version is less wrong...

I suppose that is what we vote on these days though, whatever's the least fucky...

[–] HolyDiver@aussie.zone 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

it’s a little bit more objective that “claiming moral superiority”, as one side does a lot more harm than the other

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works -3 points 10 months ago

Except that it puts us all on two "teams" which just encourages hate. Yes, the red "team" is worse in every way, but unless we make personal connections on both sides as human beings we'll just keep fighting each other and the ruling class will walk right past with their gobs of money and influence. Petty name calling plays right in to that.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Bad faith arguers are so much easier to spot than you apparently think

[–] CowsLookLikeMaps@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago

Ah yes, a copy-pasta about trucks is literally the same as oppressing women and black people. The long and brutal history of truck owner marginalization must be stopped!

Also jokes on you, I don't fit your stereotype of being an American on the internet.

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

You do you, my dude - happy holidays!

Incoherent screaming

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 15 points 10 months ago

I guess they must not care, because they put all that effort in and then wrote "I don't care" at the bottom.

[–] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

But that Grinch they used is the Christmas Hating Grinch, his heart is still 2 sizer too small.

[–] GrabtharsHammer@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

There's a big group of people out there who can read a Dr. Seuss book and still not understand it.

[–] downhomechunk@midwest.social 2 points 10 months ago

I thought Dr Seuss got canceled?

[–] Protoknuckles@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Is that not representative of the "I got mine, fuck you" conservative movement?

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 6 points 10 months ago

Meanwhile, that same person is offended by:

• TV commercials

• books

• cakes

• restrooms

• rainbows

• Barbie

And ironically…..

• “happy holidays.”

[–] IWantToFuckSpez@kbin.social 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So why the grinch then who hates Christmas. Also if they like the troops so much why do they keep voting for Republicans who deny healthcare for sick veterans. They only like the troops because of jingoism.

[–] 520@kbin.social 1 points 7 months ago

So why the grinch then who hates Christmas.

Because even Dr Seuss is too much for them to be able to read.
