You're viewing a single thread.
Imagine being about to die any day now, and still using your failing, literally sputtering life force to proactively stand for enduring corruption even when you're gone and will no longer profit from it, as if the corporations that bribe the Republicans and Neoliberals will be able to send the bribe checks to hell or something.
There aren't many villains, even in fiction, that lack any nuance to this degree. McConnell truly is a palpatine-esque cartoon of malevolence.
He really is one of the most evil humans to ever exist in the USA. PLEASE can he die soon. PLEASE. The earth needs a win.
I'm convinced he's a lich and we need to find his philactery first
His philactery is a needle. The needle is in egg, the egg is in duck, the duck is in rabbit, the rabbit is in chest, the chest is buried under oak, the oak is on the island in the middle of ocean.
Somehow, McConnell returned.
Jesus, I can just picture the Heritage Foundation fascist thinktank rolling a screen onto the Senate floor that's some janky McConnell LLM Max Headroom looking AI to tell the Senate Republicans what to think.
Now that's an obscure reference. I was a kid in the 80s, and there were whole decades of my life where, if I thought about Max Headroom at all, I suspected I had just hallucinated the whole thing.
Honestly it predates me! I grew up in the 90s and saw so many pop culture references to it over the years that I sought it out. Really ahead of its time.
Also, it's apparently being rebooted. https://m.imdb.com/news/ni63708482/
