    These are young Republicans caught in a scandal where their private chat logs were leaked revealing disgusting hateful racist speech. JD Vance, the vice president, defended them as being just young kids who shouldn’t have their lives ruined over this. One of them is already an elected official and none of them are actual kids.

      I don’t condone body shaming but I am a big fan of realism and want to emphasize that they somehow think they are the Aryan race? wow talk about delusional

        Hitler thought the Proper Aryan Look was blond with blue eyes. If you’re not hard-mode cognitive-dissonancing, you’re not a fascist. They live in a fantasy world inside their heads. The problem is they want to force that world to become reality.

      And their fashion sense is atrocious.

      Just look at the shoes of the two outside dudes, for example. Who wears that shade of leather with that shade of suit?

    Right wing media media is trying to spin the Politico chat leaks as just “kids being kids” because of the group’s name, The Young Republicans, ignoring the fact that “young” here means 18-35 years old (IIRC) and several members implicated hold office or positions in the GOP

      Ooooh. Thanks friendo.

      Not sure being any age makes some of those messages remotely acceptable (I’m not enough in the loop to know much about it, other than a couple of things that were said).

        Well, if the person writing them was 5, it would raise a completely different set of concerns.

    Those grown adults are Nazis within the republican party. They’re being defended by the republican party for being Nazis, specifically as JD Vance put it: “Kids will be kids”.

    Which is to say that every child near the age of 30 is allowed to be a Nazi.

    According to our Vice President.

      But if you want to have sex with them, RFK says that girls start puberty at nine so that should be the line.

    Vance is only 41. I don’t think anyone should call someone else a “kid”, unless they are young enough to actually be their kid. Also, none of these people are couches.

      I think this is just what the average American looks like these days.

      But yeah, they certainly would not have been part of the Master Race ideal of the Nazis.

      From the outside, I really hope the tide turns. The only good Nazi is a dead one.

    JFC, WOOF.

    I don’t usually like judging a person by their appearance, but since I have literal proof that their insides match their outsides, I feel as though I’m in the clear.

    Man, I wouldn’t fuck any of these people with Hitlers dick.
