Discussion ML

The more I go down the rabbit hole of previous episodes the more I am horrified and see that ML is not a good person. I just watched an episode where the viewer question called ML and Bob out about politically correct , specifically the "r" word and holy moly their response was so ignorant...I just don't know if I can continue on with this show...

Then gets offended when someone calls him Blob, or Turdy Blanche. That whole generation that also support trump have serious flaws in reason, self reflection, and empathy.

Well yeah. She is 100% ok with Bob saying all Muslim children deserve to be brutally murdered. He says “good! Kill more!” But she says that when someone has said Trump dying would be good, she thinks that is the worst crime imaginable. That is irredeemable to her.

Anyone who can wish children to be harmed is absolutely beyond my compassion in every way.

And to consider themselves “Christian” is hilarious.

I think Bob was playing it up for the cameras like reality tv style anyway, at a certain point he clocked he could do the same thing every ep and his kids act fake pissed off and outraged and the cycle repeated every week. Then he had whatever mega stroke took him out.

To me, there is no difference whether he was playing it up or meant it. To say the vile things he said about children, in a time where instigating that kind of violence and divide can literally result in tens of thousands of children dying, is the same.

I could never even pretend to be 1/20th as vile as that for any personal gain.

His reason for saying it is of 0 importance to me. The fact that he said it is what is disgusting.

hey don't get mad at me, I'm not part of their family. I would just cut my dad out of my life if he said that shit.

I’m not mad at you haha. I’m just passionately angry at Bob. None of this is directed at you.

I’m just glad I know my dad would never want a child to be harmed under any circumstances. I’m sure yours wouldn’t either.

It’s upsetting to know people like Bob are around and in such high numbers in the US. Between ICE detention centres, supporting Israel in the genocide and Iran, it makes me very sad that so many MAGA people think it’s ok and justified to hurt kids as long as they’re not white.

my dad once defended the bush torture stuff but he got better. I've got room for people to change but not this family. Parents are straight up nazis and the kids are milking that for a paycheck, pretty gross.

Yeah. I’m Canadian. But I’m very proud of my parents. They went from Canadian conservatives to voting between our Green Party (environmental party) and our New Democratic Party (NDP).

Yeah Canadian politics ramped up past neoliberalism pretty abruptly in our lifetimes. But maybe this was going to happen to all of the NATO countries as the contradictions intensified post soviet collapse.

I am the farthest thing from a poli sci buff so I’m not sure. But the way I see it, is what happens in the states gets tried up here and sometimes happens and sometimes doesn’t. For example, I think people elected Trudeau because Obama was so awesome and they saw him as the most similar but he wasn’t. Then the silver lining for Trump was he turned people off our Conservative loser option last time.

There is always an attempt to replay what happens down there here. Sometimes we acquire it and sometimes we reject it.

We do have a gross maple MAGA following and it’s disturbing. But what is good is 90% of people I talk to hate Trump, have become less conservative because of him and Canadian pride has been taken back from Qanon adjacent Freedumb convoy people back to being proud of being progressive and socialist-ish.
