Is it just me or does anyone else have to fight the urge to be horribly misogynistic to these Trump worshippers? I always fall back to my gender-neutral profanity (such as "Trump's shit-guzzler") but I just feel a deep rooted desire to be as maximally offensive to and about MAGA cultists and enablers as humanly possible. I know it's lazy but I mean if anyone deserves to be insulted in the most extreme way possible it's these creatures.

They're literal traitors to the United States of America that are attempting to dismantle its government, causing unimaginable suffering.

They deserve a lot more than being called mean names.

It's fine, you can call her a cunt

[–] IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 19 points 8 hours ago

Nah, she lacks the depth and warmth.

Call her a Nazi.

Unless you're Australian, then it might be seen as a term of endearment.

[–] Owljfien@lemm.ee 10 points 10 hours ago

Its fine, just preface it with shit. Shit cunts are not thought of highly

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 6 points 10 hours ago

The Aussie term for people like her is a fucking dog cunt.

Don't let them bring you down to their level. There's so many fun gender neutral insults.

  • ASVAB waiver
  • Middle School Drop Out
  • Failed Abortion
  • Incest Experiment
  • Good Idea Fairy
  • Shit Fucker
  • Couch Fucker <-- Thank you JD Vance!
  • Two Balls Short of a Spine
  • A family tree with no branches
  • Couldn't fight/talk their way out of a wet cardboard box

I mean really, there's just so many.

or better yet, Shakespeare Insult Generator! https://www.librarieshawaii.org/learn/brain-games/bardly-barbs/

  • Thou paunchy clapper-clawed boar-pig
  • You fobbing nut-hook carbuncle!
  • You paunch bilbo wag!
  • mew fut barnacle!
  • fawn bully angel!

Oh thank you, I've been looking for that! For totally not Bardly DnD reasons...

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

DND with Shakespeare insults would be hilarious. My DM playing a single sound effect on his phone was enough to end the session for 5 minutes of laughs

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

All I have to say is Vicious Mockery is back on the menu,

[–] chtk@feddit.nl 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)
  • Shit Fucker

Which of these words should I emphasise? Or would either work?

That doesn't sound too strange. Sometimes I want to use "f****t" as an insult, but I don't, because that would be homophobic and I'm not homophobic

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

I accidentally used cock sucker as an insult but I meant it in the billionaire-cock sucker, not the way it used to be used. There's nothing wrong with sucking dicks, but if you suck the dicks of billionaires then you're a problem. Still I recognize how it could have been taken and felt badly.

[–] NauticalNoodle@lemmy.ml 10 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

If you must give up your values then you might as well give them up in exchange for something in return. In this case you get nothing in return which is why I too recommend using gender-neutral insults.

You’re not going to be able to put them in their place better than they do for themselves already. Save the effort IMO.

Although, that being said… I have no issues with any kinda of ~~verbal~~ antagonism towards fascists. If a woman is a nazi, and we’re all saying it’s ok to punch nazis; is it ok to punch a nazi woman? I say yes.

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Yes but you're doing the punching on the basis of them being a nazi, not of them being a woman

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

They want you to lower yourself to their level. Wrestling pigs just gets you muddy. Please call them out though, it is important work.

Taking the high road has really been working out for us!
Might have our faces in the dirt but we can feel good about being the better person!

[–] kipo@lemm.ee 3 points 8 hours ago

Sure, but being sexist or misogynistic doesn’t actually help us. Getting dirty and stooping low in political ways though, to save the country from an authoritarian nazi regime? Yes, please.

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 0 points 8 hours ago

Nobody said anything about taking the high road...

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

Actually, no, and I'm an arsehole. I guess I learned something about myself today.
