people say he changed for the worse after his stroke, but it seems like he was always a bad politician and a teensy beensy bit of a freak who chased a black jogger with a shotgun.
so i feel its less that he turned bad and more like he got worse
One more stroke & he’s back as a progressive.
Monkey Paw:
He becomes so progressive, he’s now support giving voting rights to AI.
Yes, each instance of Siri, each instance of Gemini, all get a vote.
And now Tim Apple becomes POTUS. (Because the US has the biggest iPhone Marketshare)

Omg I would hate to be inappropriate and outrageous!!!
Nah, then he’ll watch. 🤢
You know someone’s no longer talking in good faith when they use words like “inappropriate and outrageous” to describe the suggestion of abolishing a department that didn’t exist 25 years ago. This is someone consciously and openly attempting to shift the Overton Window so that they don’t keep getting called on to defend the indefensible.
John “Trump Signs Are PA’s State Flower” Fetterman not talking in good faith? Say it ain’t so!
My favorite Fetterman moment was when he castigated Democrats for mentioning trump’s felony convictions, saying we were supposed to be the party of “forgiveness and redemption”. Imagine consciously throwing away a political advantage like your opponent’s crimes - it’s like refusing to blink when your opponent throws sand in your eyes.
If his wife really is an immigrant someone should report that. Maybe a lot. Just so ice has all the info.
And then call the local PD. 🍿

I still cannot believe how wrong I was about John Fetterman.
the alternative wouldve been MEMHET oz, but oz is in a position to do more harm than fetterman right now, it was a lose lose situation.
He was different before his stroke. There are multiple studies that correlate frontal and midline lesions in the brain with right-wing authoritarianism.

I guess but I feel like supporting Gaza genocide isn’t something you just stroke into.
Nah, they’re all having one while slurping up that Faux trooth.
I don’t know enough about Fetterman’s past to make a judgement on how his stroke affected him, but you totally could. Brain damage can fundamentally change who you are as a person on every level, from memory to logic, or even spirituality. It can change or entirely destroy your ability to feel empathy, damping some emotions while amping up others. Strokes that fundamentally change personality like that are rare, but certainly not outside the realm of possibility.
There’s a famous case of a guy who got a railroad spike blown through his frontal lobe and he basically became a huge asshole.
Phineas Gage if anyone wants to look the case up. Classic psychology and neurology tale.
Of course this happened before modern scientific standards and procedures were mainstream, so take everything with a grain of salt.
Actually, that’s kinda what these neuroscientists are finding happens.
Any evidence of it ever having the opposite effect?
That tends to happen with books, but wisely applying their contents to the dome.
Strokes can break your brain fundamentally change your personality and values. Idk if that actually happens or if he was always actually a piece of shit. It doesn’t matter ultimately. He’s a shithead now.
In our hate for Dr Oz, we accidentally raised up a separate monster.
Turns out both options were horrible monsters. As is tradition.
Sometimes the lesser evil is still really evil.
BOoOoOOoTThH sSSsSsSsiiiIIidESSsssSS
I mean, I thought he was the best option during the primary, that was definitely wrong. And not everything can be blamed on the stroke.
yeah now we have fetterman and oz is still in government.
You and me both sister
He started with a 180, and now I’m so dizzy I feel like Alice in Wonderland.
ICE is a bunch of cowards. If they were really removing violent and scary undocumented immigrants who break the law and don’t pay taxes, you’d hear about more shootouts with ICE. Instead, it’s farmers and young families who are working, or their kids. It’s such a pity such these cowards got such a huge funding bump.
ICE is a bunch of cowards.
Like all fascists.
Fuck ICE. The people that sign up for that sham of an organization peaked in high school and are mad at the world because of their irrelevance. Nobody loves or cares for these people. They exist to inflict pain to fill a void where a personality, ambitions, and empathy should be. They have nothing to give or contribute to the world.
“Fuck you, got mine.”
- those guys
Every “conservative” is a closet narcissist. The only difference is they now feel comfortable tearing the mask off and no longer hiding behind the presumption they possess empathy or want what’s best for other people.
Jesus, John – quit being a senator and just go record podcasts in your truck for a living.
Seriously fuck John Fetterman. What a bag of turds.
Turds’d make better fertilizer, but he’ll do.
Gisele should primary him.
Wish there was a 25th amendment for senators. This dude’s brain is melting out his ears
Nah, I think the whole progressive thing was his wife’s influence.
I’ve met too many assholes from York county who are just like him.
Maybe he’s sick of her
