It must be tough to be a right winger these days. They control the entire American government and still can't get anything done.

It's good that they spend all of their energy complaining about how oppressed they are or they might end up spending some time coming to terms with the intellectual bankruptcy of their positions and there's no safe space big enough for that kind of trigger warning.
 
If she was surrounded by "Syrian" refugees I would have blown a gasket for sure.
 
How many snowflakes? I see only one Brietbart guy triggered. That is supposed to translate I to "conservative snowflakes and Libertarians"? Or is there more here than was linked to?

I'm beginning to think I should invest in stock in companies that sell tissue paper. It seems like it takes less and less to send conservatives and libertarians (who are a completely different thing, honest!) into crying fits.

This time it was a magazine cover with Lady Liberty in the background.

So many tears.

Before I read the article, I was already thinking that the photo shoot had to have predated the Miller malarkey by weeks given magazine publishing deadlines...

Sure enough:

Zara Rahim, Vogue‘s director of communications, responded to Carney’s accusations by noting, “we shot this in June buddy.”

:hysterical:

FWIW, the photo is gorgeous

All the ones who read this guy's tweets and accept his outrage without critical thinking.
Not the thoughtful or rational conservatives, just the pushbutton snowflakes that WANT to be outraged by the constant libtard attacks on their patriotism...

It is called the Statue of Liberty not the Statue of Immigrants.

So?

It represents immigrants. It has represented immigrants for a very long time. We even put a poem on it to make sure everyone knows that statue is about the immigrants. Just because the French didn't originally intend it for that does not invalidate what it means to Americans.

If you don't like living in an immigrant nation, you are more than welcome to move back to whatever country your ancestors came from, because you sure as fuck don't belong in America.
 
Right wing triggering isn't anything new, and people should stop pretending like it is. Hell, if it had anything to do with President Obama these people were triggered on a near constant basis. His suit, his condiment choices, the angle of his flag pin, you name it. Hypersensitive doesn't even begin to describe it. Now, if a few brown people come into the country, the "home of the brave" run out to buy more guns and ammo. In my experience, it's the gun owners that flaunt it and love open carry that are the biggest, most fearful people around. They need guns to make them powerful, just like they need god to protect them.

What it means to many Americans. The Statue of Liberty obviously represents liberty, and that plaque was put on decades later.
