From Riley Gaines to OU, conservatives are making their failures everyone else’s problem. Never before have people become so famous for coming in fifth place or failing a homework assignment.

Damn, I should have posted my grades online when I was a kid, I was held back twice and never graduated. I might have been crowned king.
Republicans are like the person in the group assignment who doesn’t do the work but wants the same credit as everyone else.
>Despite their obsession with personal responsibility, conservatives can’t admit when they fail. It is the school’s fault I received a failing grade for the same reason it is the immigrant’s fault I can’t find a job — because to admit otherwise would show weakness, and weakness is something to be eradicated.
>It is not just grades, trophies, or jobs that conservatives feel entitled to. Their movement revolves around entitlement to land, to women’s bodies, to impose their beliefs on others, or simply to inflict the pain they feel on others. (You’ll notice that both Gaines and Fulnecky are women. That’s because when conservative men are confronted with their own failures or do not get what they want, [they become mass shooters](https://www.advocate.com/news/transgender-nonbinary-mass-shooters-debunked).)
Yup. Christian nationalists want to basically force people to worship their religion, and they get mad whenever we tell them we don’t want to. It’s honestly a form of spiritual assault, what they do. Yet, we can’t call it a genocide.
It’s MAGA. When all you’ve got are failures best you can do is celebrate the least terrible among them.
You don’t have to write about it.
That’s because Conservatives always need to see themselves as victims so they can feel justified in doing evil shit in return…
Republicans are the party of the worst examples of humanity
If it’s pathetic, evil, cruel, etc. then you can count on those losers to do it. There’s literally nothing good about who they are and what they do
And yes, I know they say that about us too but a quick look at their reasons confirms what I just said
The right wing grifting machine has an endless supply of suckers.
They’re not making it everyone’s problem. They’re targeting trans women. It only hurts cisgender people by accident.
She’s going to dye her hair blonde and become a talking head.
Gaines is seriously one of the most profoundly pathetic and embarrassing individuals in the public eye right now. Pushing bigotry and fighting for the deprivation of an entire group of people, all because you…tied for fifth place with a member of that group. like what the fuck
Still blows my mind she got 5th place and went ape shit.
Internationally failing a paper.
She had written 2 earlier papers in that class citing the Bible and got high marks on both.
>Now University of Oklahoma student Samantha Fulnecky is trying to get the Gaines treatment after receiving a failing grade for an essay that claims trans people are “demonic” and that gender roles are “Biblically ordained.” Fulnecky didn’t cite any sources — not even a quote from the Bible she claims to follow so closely — leading the multiple reviewers of her work giving her a zero.
She thinks she should pass because… that’s how she feels and has no evidence or proof to back up her claims?
Honestly don’t get the 5th place thing. It was never about 5th place. So now we look dumb and lose elections because of it.
Imo, Dems inability to separate Gaines from other issues is costing votes. Whether you like it or not, her position has more bipartisan support than just about every other Republican position.
And no one is surprised, especially when their orange godking gets participation trophies.
The problem is social media. When you allow the most ignorant to have the loudest voices, it brings down the entire ship.
Meanwhile, in the media: We’re all looking for the guy who did this.gif
Nothing worse than entitled white people playing the victim card.
And those are the same people who whine all day about young people receiving “participation trophies”.
They’d rather white mediocrity than multicultural merit
They’re simply emulating their blame-shifting Narcissist-in-Chief.
Republicans culture hinges on one main element for the rabble: you are the victim.
They really are the snowflakes they want everyone else to be
Republicans have always been stupid failures. Now they’re just proud of it.
Riley Gaines is such a loser if there was a competition to see who the biggest loser was, she’d get 2nd place. Loser.
If it wasn’t trans women, it would be something else. The grift never stops.
It’s about the cruelty and fascism.
You can’t debate these people…people keep trying.
The Germans had the same problem in the late ‘30’s.

It’s because all of the ‘issues’ that Republicans rail against are almost entirely made up.
It’s not that they think people like Riley Gaines are great messengers for their movement, it’s that people like Riley Gaines are literally the *only* ‘victims’ they can find. They have to make mascots out of the extraordinarily shallow victim pool they have.
Grifting conservatives is a highly lucrative business and the economy kinda sucks right now. Been considering getting in the game myself, I’m just one public racist rant away from being debt free
