chasfh Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 I am convinced that when these misspellings occur, they are intentionally virtue-signaling to their modestly-educated, unsophisticated, poorly-read constituency they are all on the same side, and people who make fun of them for “honest mistakes” like misspellings are despicable elitist jerks. IOW, I don’t think the misspellings are accidental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I agree with that. “They make fun of us for being dumb. They make fun of our teeth. Yet they don’t say shit when they are stuck in a ditch and we pull over and use our truck to pull their suburu out”. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 Right. There are just too many misspellings and malapropisms, and the practice is too persistent, for them to be all strictly accidental. I mean, sure, they're relatively stupid people, but really: "Imeach"? Come on ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IOW, I don’t think the misspellings are accidental. I am the least conspiracy minded person I know, but I am beginning to wonder how many of these memes/stories with misspellings in them are from overseas & are being built to divide us. I don't think DJT has an original bone in his body, nor idea in his brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I have a hard to believing even Boebert missed that in a banner. I'm also certain she did not design the banner. It was an intentional misspelling. It was probably shared more on Twitter because of the misspelling than had it been without. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfife Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) it got a lot more attention for being spelled wrong than it would have spelled right. I could def see it being intentional. Edited September 27, 2021 by pfife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup - it's gotten to be a pattern that has become self re-enforcing because of it goes get more social media attention. Once is an accident, twice is a co-incidence. After that it's a plan.

chasfh Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 I've been saying here ... er, on MTS ... for years that these misspellings and malapropisms are intentional, and serve as a way to feed their insatiable need to be publicly recognized as victims of "liberal elitism", or whatever, in order to strengthen the bond between the Republican cons and their hapless red-hatted marks. Glad to see practically everyone else has come around to that idea. And yes, @djhutch: I too believe the strategy, if not always the output, emanated from overseas. And I think we all know which sea it came over from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Sonics Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Speaking of lunatics, a Democratic congressman from Illinois, Danny Davis, thinks R. Kelly should be given a second chance. He thinks Kelly would be "welcomed back to Chicago". What? Sure, Danny, we can start by sending your granddaughters to his place for the weekend. Talk about being out of touch. I'm not always into cancelling people, but this 80 year old dinosaur needs to just go away. What a turd. (Hey, we can say turd without being censored, I like this new place!)

Motor City Sonics Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 I am pretty sure that if Jesus returned and absolutely proved he was Jesus beyond any reasonable doubt and he started preaching Jesus-y things like loving people no matter what, whatever perceived flaws or differences they have with you, and aiding the sick and helping the poor by making sure they are clothed, sheltered and fed, and taking care of the planet, the only home you have, you know, actual stuff we've been told he stood for, the current Republican Right Wing Christians would absolutely shred him and pick Trump over him and then would still wave the Bible around to back it up.

Well since that is pretty much exactly what did happen in ~33 AD it would not be surprising if nothing has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfife Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) Deuces I for one am shocked that the dudes who fly the traitor flag and also the confederate flag, attempt a violent coup, colluded with Russia, and drove the country into the ground don't love the country.
