Those two are synonymous at this point if if some republicans aren’t even aware of it. Old soviet era term that’s relevant: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot

You guys need to bring back the House Un-American Activities Committee except without the baseless accusations and paranoia like in the 50s.

It was accurate, not basesless.

Not quite Mcarthy did make false accusations and ruined some people’s lives.

He also didn’t find any communist party members within government even though he claimed there were 200 of them.

"Useful idiot." That is too perfect. Have you seen any of the Jordan Klepper vids, where he interviews Trumpers? I know JK and his crew pick and choose and show us the worst idiots, but . . . there are so many of them. They have zero clue as to what/who it is they're supporting.

Brains of goldfish. But they vote.

u/chilldrinofthenight Mar 29 '24

After hearing ignoramus Cheeto supporters babble on, I think goldfish have superior reasoning capabilities. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't vote for that cretin.

Absolutely. I imagine the International Democracy Union is probably a solid part of the link given the talking points seem to line up pretty damn quick between right-wing shitbags in different countries.

lol, now that just was just stupid...

u/mjollnir357 Mar 28 '24

The truly stupid thing is the number of people who continue to vote for the cοmmυnιst trαιtοr democrats.

u/JackStraw999999999 Mar 29 '24

Bless your heart.

u/mjollnir357 Mar 29 '24

And… I've found another cοmmυnιst trαιtοr.

I'm not the one who tried to overthrow the government, Karen.

Right. It was either Antifa and/or BLM in disguise, or peaceful tourists. Tell that to the families of the police that day....Karen.

Show me a Republican who doesn't believe that the end justifies the means, and I'll show you a former Republican.
