Behind Enemy Lines: SERE for When You're a Trump Supporter ;)

**FromMyColdDeadHand** · 07-10-19, 19:14

Anyone got any good one liners for dealing with virtue signaling, woke & doped pseudo intellectuals? Some throw away lines for cocktail parties where you want to break contact and leave a nice dookie in the conversational punch bowl that people only realize after a fast five count?

It's not that I pictured Trump as what I wanted as a leader to counter the leftward lurch of the country, but he's what we got and he's works- kind of like those one bladed props for airplanes. I get people don't like him, but hatred of him is leading to hysterical logic blindness that is off the charts. Colorado is going red and Denver is going full stupid. I know I'm not going to change any minds and I don't want to get into long debates with people that I know aren't going to listen or change their minds. I end up in social situations that are kind of like a left-wing Klan meetings- you know the attacks on 'orange' are going to come, and people have NO CLUE that anyone would disagree with the 'fact' that Trump is as idiot, Russian agent, and all the -ists in the world.

Anyone got some good one liners with double entendre or some cunning linguistics that you like to use? Or do I just scan the crowd for potential sympathetic re-resistance co-conspirators?

Fletch gave us "Thank you very little", my grandfather gave me "If I wanted crap out of you, I'd squeeze your head" and my father gave me "That's an idea, but not a very good one"- but I'm going for a little more nuanced for the appetizer on one hand, drink in the other, shaking hands with your third hand crowd.

I know I should just keep my mouth shut and smile, but what fun is that?

If you were in Seattle I'd suggest "What's that in your ear? Oh, some moss must have come off a tree and started growing in your head."

"You know Cannibalism would solve both over population AND world hunger."

"You know, doctors have proven that liberalism is a mental disorder."

For instance liberals believe:

Cigarettes bad; marijuana good
Killing whales bad; murdering babies good
Assaults by Leftists (Antifa) good; 2nd Amendment supporters bad
Men in women's bathrooms good; Bibles in school bad

I keep it simple:

'I can keep explaining it to you, but can't make you understand or acknowledge the facts'...That is usually followed up by: 'Why are getting so upset?? It's not my fault you're wrong'

Why even engage these idiots? They will never get it.

A nice loud, pungent, eye-watering room-broom fart usually does wonders in getting them to take their toxic spew somewhere else... problem is, it makes all your friends hightail it too.

Pretty much.

Does anyone worry about snappy zingers when dealing with white supremacists? That's pretty much how much I feel about engaging with socialists, commies and other zealots.

Amen. When someone lets loose with an SJW screed or some liberal horseshit I just smile weakly and say, "I don't really get into politics that much." It's amazing to watch the air go out of their balloon, especially when you repeat it as they persist. It's like in their minds they have no defense for DGAF.
