What a great photo. It's like someone distilled bigotry into it's purest form and then fashioned a human from it.

He looks like an extra from Ozark, like he owns the car dealership that doesn't sell to minorities and he also has 20 kidnapped immigrants chained in his basement manufacturing heroin for him.

He’s like a caricature of an inbred racist Appalachian hick, but real

[–] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Hey! Not all of us Appalachian hicks are like that. Some of us clawed our way out and never ever visit their birthplace.

Ol’ Sourpuss looks like he lost his job at the urinalysis lab for sampling the wares

He looks like a henchman to a Disney villain.

Not far off from the truth, although both Trump and DeSantis may not like the association with Disney, even if they're both villains who spend most of their time in Florida.

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

I still can't believe DeSantis has me rooting for the evil mega corporation in a legal battle.

He looks like he manages a very old but sprawling manor on an ocean view cliff, all alone, yet chooses to sleep in the pantry for unspecified reasons, and late at night he touches the suits of armor inappropriately.

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

He looks like he just realized he forgot to wipe.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He looks like they programmed a robot to hate itself and everyone around it, then put it inside an ill-fitting skin suit.

[–] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

He looks like the bad guy of the evil corporation whose name you can't remember in a movie whose main plot involves a super cyberborg doing stuff. Just get that guy a large table for him to monologue at the head of to a bunch of other people who wear suits. Like flies to honey some weightlifter type will bust in heavily armed.

He looks like if you put a $5000 Savile Row hand-tailored suit on him it would instantly grow two sizes too large and a racist Chick tract would appear in the pocket.

[–] Icalasari@kbin.social 5 points 10 months ago

He looks like a depressed human Dumbo. Dem ears!
