Conservatives… 😵‍💫

While the right has spent so much energy agitating against outcomes that never came, however, the dystopian future that liberals have been warning about has seemingly sprung up all around us. These long-feared “Where does it end?” scenarios have led to our current era, which sometimes looks and feels like The End.

The left has warned against environmental, structural and financial deregulation—just to name a few issues—and now our buildings are collapsing, our trains are derailing, and banks keep failing.

They’ve been warning about climate change for decades and now the sky just occasionally turns red, and earlier this month Earth reached the hottest day ever recorded on four consecutive days and now July appears to be the planet’s hottest month on record.

The left warned that lax gun control would lead to more mass shootings and rage killings—which it continues to do—while the right thinks the real long-term threat is that the shootings will result in any gun-control measures whatsoever. (“Where does it end?”, asked Fox News’ Mark Levin about the response to the Parkland massacre in 2018.)

And then there’s the long line of liberal doomsaying around Roe v. Wade, which conservatives swore was settled law and whose removal last summer resulted in an ongoing human-rights crisis that threatens to get even worse.

“They’re not stopping here,” President Biden recently said, while marking the anniversary of SCOTUS striking down Roe. It was neither exaggeration, hyperbole, nor Chicken Little fearmongering; just a realistic assessment of how a 6-3 SCOTUS plays goal-line defense for progress, with the support of a fully emboldened, mask-off GOP.

Conservatives are not making practical, incremental measures toward long-term radical change. They openly aspire to resurrect a backwards version of America right now, and they don’t care whether there’s majority buy-in or not.

There is still hope, though, and it lives in Minnesota.

Democrats in the Land of 10,000 Lakes clawed back a two-vote majority in last fall’s midterms—perhaps not coincidentally soon after three GOP state reps discussed classroom litter box nonsense on the House floor—and proceeded to go on a legislative bender for the ages. Governor Tim Walz’s list of wins since then reads like a checklist of the average MAGA grandad’s worst nightmares, touching on everything from reproductive rights, gun control, recreational weed legalization, trans rights, green energy, and way too much more to mention.

Governor Walz and his team are not trying to “sensible” their way into making constituents’ lives better, they’re just doing it. They have seemingly realized that the kind of conservative who paints support for trans people as a pipeline to isn’t worth reasoning with or trying to win over with practical measures. The right fights each proposed incremental change as if it were a full-blown revolution anyway, so the only sensible thing to do is swing for the fences.

Where does it end? If other leaders follow suit after the next election, it will be fun to find out.

Where’s his horse to require heels that high? Fucking guy probably has lifts in there too.

Height enhancing boots, because he is short.. Maybe a wee bit taller than Tom Cruise.

So far though, DeSantis, unlike Donald Trump, has not felt the need to talk about his penis size from the podium.

As far as l know, Trump is the only president in US history who tried to tell the public his penis was not tiny. So, it must be... tiny.

So, why do conservatives feel so insecure about their height and their little genitalia?

Those remain boots, even if you want them to be something else.

Obviously, it is DeSantis who wants them to be more than something else. 🤣

Are those not heels? Are they not high?

You cannot wish them away.

Boots in that style have a higher heel than normal so they can stop a stirrup. That’s what they are for. Where is his horse? When they are worn with a fancy western attire okay, going for a look.

What dessntis is doing here? He’s wearing them to increase his hight.

High heels.

I’m surprised you recognize a boot that’s not at the receiving end of your tongue.

Anyway, moving on from the chryses show lest he gets any wetter…

Men love boots because the heels make you taller.

I love my handmade alligator skin cowboy boots. Besides making me 3" taller, they look great.

But DeSantis is reported to wear lifts in all his shoes. But. So what when compared with Donald Trump's internationally laughable hair twist to cover his bald head, and spray tan. Really? A man getting a spray tan? Nor very macho at all for the so-called leader of the rightwing branch of the GOP.

But with Trump being a cowardly draft dodger, spoiled brat, and notorious liar, he probably is best suited for leadership there.

This is very sad. Rightwing de-evolution at its' worst.

No such thing as an Amish doctor

Fuckin' Biden

He did everything right and they indicted him.
