Republicans Are People Too

v. good poll

are white duh

i like the old time religious prejudice of 'are left-handed' but its hard to beat ARE WHITE in all caps

my favorite part is maybe how the beard they show is a goatee

but there are lots of great parts

they shdve used diff fonts to represent the diff races tho imo

At least the guy behind it is honest:

Minchillo is not advising any campaigns at the moment. That, he says, makes it the perfect time to start a grassroots campaign to change the Republican Party’s image. And yes, it is a grassroots effort—no Koch money involved.

But what if the Koch brothers did want to get involved?

“I’d just hand it over,” he said.

lmao

are grandmas' daughters' moms

i love how even with high production values it manages to strike such a relentlessly odd tone

it would probably be a wise investment for the koch brothers to just give this guy $50,000, take over for him, and never do anything with it again

'Republicans are white' is the 'I'm not a witch' of september 14.

a twitter.com user points out one does not assemble ikea furniture with a hammer, republicans hit furniture with hammers for no reason

Did You Know Moby Puts Together IKEA Furniture?

voted 'are black' as the one most easily proved to be irrelevant to any known reality

have feelings bc cmon guy

thinking maybe we shouldnt take the vid maker at face value and should consider thaat maybe republicans are not ppl

i mean how much more evidence do you need they are white and black

i know but what kind of person has to announce that sorta shit? i'll tell you who: nonpersons like robots and algorithms.

some republicans arent people theyre corporations

or liches like david koch

yeah like anyone was accusing republicans of being not people kinda a weird thing to get defensive about

i know i think im the only one with a "republicans are literally not people" bumper sticker, it is not a popular notion

Criminals are people, too.

almost feel like that "republicans have feelings" card is like what republicans think sensitive democrats sound like

like what do they do if theyre not going to the driving range or shooting ranger or endangering life on the planet shit they probably talk about FEELINGS lets put that in

it's like a creepily benevolent alien race that's recently arrived on our planet and gently inserted themselves into running the planet decided to beam this vid into the homes of wary earthlings.

that would explain why all these GOPers look like they are stifling agony in literally everything in this. like the lady at trader joe's is like FUCK THIS NATURAL DEODORANT MY MAN NEEDS MITCHUM or like the gourmet meal folks are some burned onions away from ordering papa john's

also there is literally no photo evidence of republicans recycling, just a picture of a blue bin and your imagination to fill in the rest

i mean ffs sake non-human theory supported by the fact that they think grandmas are another word for freshly baked cookies im done with these fools

their plan totally backfired

Republicans are people, but they're awful people.

i like some republicans

voted "are hispanic" in honor of hispanic americans everywhere

a twitter.com user points out one does not assemble ikea furniture with a hammer, republicans hit furniture with hammers for no reason

You need a hammer and nails to attach the backboard in several of their shelf models (including the ubiquitous CD tower).

Republicans give one percent of a shit.

Was stuck in traffic behind a Prius the other day that had homemade bumperstickers along the lines of "STOP THE GOVERNMENT WAR ON RELIGION!" etc.

have a feeling 'are white' is going to take this

any lottery number predictions while you're gazing into your crystal ball?

if liberals stopped pissing and shitting on my constitution then maybe republicans wouldn't need to be so mean. that's my 2 cents anyhoo

Maybe take your copy of the Constitution out of the toilet?

Honestly, all the welders I meet are right wing nutjobs.

it occurs to me that missingNO might be an infernal sockpuppet

since 2010? maybe just an idiot

Voting "and beards" in honor of the log cabin republicans left off this list.

or is pushing some awful 'satirical' project atm xp to self

actually yeah it's obv satirical

and shit

How do we sign an actual republican to ILX? Seems like it'd be fun.

There have been a number if Republicans here, usually of the moderate or libertarian variety. I don't think "Republican" is a synonym for "idiot monster to be ridiculed".

Voted Ikea for the sheer randomness of it.

Know Nothings Are People Too.

They shop at Trader Joe's....but not Whole Foods.....or that loser place down the road with the crazy hippies running it.

Do Republicans live in cities?

this is a perfect accompaniment to the RIP david brooks thread

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

good luck usa

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

turns out republicans are white people too after all

so the ultimate ilx non-republican is a tattooed Asian kindergarten teacher who separates her Sunday Styles sections and cat food cans into separate containers, helps donate to her daughter's fun runs, and welds on the weekends

oh wait, it's not that she's a mother it's that she's a daughter
so i guess she's raised by two dads in this scenario and she did the ALS ice bucket challenge

Are white was always going to take it, but a surprisingly low plurality at just under 30%

Which suggests if there had been another outstanding candidate to rally around, things could have been different. "Republicans are greedy", or "Republicans are cruel", for instance.

That's not really a joke is it? Just me saying I hate republicans. Ah well.

Republicans are white, have feelings and beards

i dont think i have ever met a republican

certainly not a self-annoucing one

wait is that literally true nakh? and you live in the us? it's hard for me to conceive how this happens.

i have lived in brookline ma my entire life

Republicans put together Ikea furniture... in public.

You've met some secret Republicans, nakh

Almost as bad as a Republican is a self-described 'centrist' who believes there's too much hysteria over sea level rise and thinks 'both sides are bad.'

i.e. a guy I met two weekends ago

moms
recycle

daughters
have tattoos

teachers
and cats
like dogs

welders
read the new york times
donate to charity
are asian

don't know why but i always assumed nakhchivan was a britishes

at least secret republicans know there's some shame they should feel about it

Well also half of the Republicans in MA would be Democrats in 40 of the other 49 states

true

my sister at vassar confused some people in her first semester by referring to herself as a republican without the prefix 'irish' (she is super into reclaiming the feminist dimension of the irish independence movement right now)

moms

i always assumed nakhchivan was a britishes

nakh has breadth as well as depth

republicans include people too

at least 27% and as many as 35% of republicans are people

oh positive womanpaws

i wonder if the original photographer is making more than like $0.25 per use of that photo

very obvs the whole thing was assembled from stock photos

The Republican Party might as well be assembled by stock photos.

They should have used those animated "caught dancing in the office" GIFs from that one series of refinance banner ads.

shdve used backpack girl "republicans wear backpacks"

Republicans are white, have feelings and beards
