Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 06, 2024

Mike Lynch (super yacht sinking), Hamish Harding (Titan sub implosion) – billionaires haven’t been doing so well lately. Now if fate could just take Elon.

But, but… pwning the libs is a time honored tradition and it’s so much FUN and it takes no effort at all… all you have to do is believe what the Fox Noose tells you!

Should old people vote for their own interest or the the interest of young people? It is not unreasonable to care what happens to young people.

I’m waiting for some well known US Democrat to state the importance of breathing clean air or drinking clean water. “Owning the Libs” on that point wouldn’t be the dumbest example for many of them.

I live a few blocks from Kansas, and YES I frequently wonder what’s wrong with Kansas. Of course, there appears to be an epidemic of people voting for corporate welfare queens who would gladly feed them to the deepest of all deep sewer monsters, and expect them to be properly grateful for the privilege…..

Mousetraps work because the mouse doesn’t know why the cheese is free.

Someone is going to make this political.

“Titanic IV: The Bloom Is Off The Rose”

Another cartoon magats will never understand.

They have no idea what their own interests are.

.

They know they are getting shafted and that they continue to get shafted.

But they have no idea how they got shafted and no idea who did it.

.

They actually believe that giant corporations, who offshored their jobs and brought in massive amounts of ‘legals’ to take jobs they couldn’t offshore are going to save them and restore them to their previous positions.

By giving even more money to those same giant corporations.

.

Meanwhile, their candidate is unable to answer simple questions and his vice presidential choice believes childless women should not be able to teach, vote, or hold any job with responsibilities.

.

And they believe Russia is their friend and Ukraine their enemy.

And that Trump is a Christian.

He won’t be voting at all if they don’t get rescued.

Lots of electors I know get really hysterical trying to work out whether they’d be voting against their own interests …

So great. Thank you.

And yet, they’ll vote against their interest this time and the next time and the next.

I wish I could “like” this a hundred times.

I vote against my own interests all of the time. I vote for a better economy. I vote for a secure border. I vote for fewer regulations. I vote for following the US Constitution. I vote for no censorship. I vote for a non-weaponized DOJ. I vote for lower taxes for all. I vote for a strong, non-woke military. Yep, those things are all against my interests.

Sounds like the cultists are getting nervous

I’m one “woke liberal elite “ who was really “owned” when MAGAts refused the vaccine and more of them died from COVID after it became available. They saw through our scam and realized science is a liberal conspiracy.

Texans have voted in Republicans to fix Texas. Republicans run on the fact they will fix Texas for the last 27 years or more they have been in power. I guess people just keep voting for them to see when this will actually happen.

If you are a parent who receives SNAP Benefits and vote Republican, you are telling your children that making billionaires wealthier is more important than putting food on the table.

At least he saved his hat.

Problem with catch phrases… a lib could be a librarian or a libertine or a libra or a liberationist. I’m so confused. Maybe I’ll just go and sit in the backyard for a while.

His Highness, Prince Buttercup. AKA Blahblah, the Worst is obviously failing mentally. The debate will be an interesting match up between logic and illogic. The ABC presentation will make a kind of history. Just hope they don’t follow the CNN example and load it with commercials breaks or allow space for the so-called ‘news analysts.’ Those things will break the thread of the debate and its tone.

Owning the Libs is what the Demoncratic Party does. Literally as well as figuratively.

I’ll vote for whoever can stop the wars before they become nuclear. That’s in everybody’s interest

OMG! Such delusion!Voting to defund the cops?! Voting in radical DAs?! Voting to decriminalize drugs?! Kalifornia/Oregon are the lands of “voting against you own interest”, and they not conservatives!

We should learn to measure individuals not by the amount of money they possess, but by the richness of their character, the value they place on humanity, and the investments they make in a future that benefits us all.

Yes. Vote for the ones who tell you the other side is bad, then usurp the other sides ideas. The ones who use the same tired tropes for the last seventy years while draining your bank accounts to pay for it.

I sense jealousy!

I don’t have to own anything. I just have to keep from being owned.

Nonetheless I do delight when I see the other side take yet another hit.

hey 81 million voters, this one’s for you…what can be unburdened by what has been…

oh, Wiley is gonna start a lot of arguments. LOL!

A great number of republicans coming out in support of Kamala Harris and growing every day. Welcome Liz Cheney.

Republican confederates want to destroy our democracy so they can be fascist dictators. Anyone who votes for an anti democracy insurrectionist is a traitor to the land they were born in.

Just don’t vote for someone who fell out of a coconut tree.

Let’s mess with the political process! RFK sued the state to get ON the ballot and now that the absentee ballots are already printed and about to go out he’s suing the state again to get OFF the ballot. The court said NO so, if at first you don’t succeed, appeal, and appeal again. They’re attempting to delay if not abolish early and absentee voting

Google: trump owning the liberals

He does. It is called “X”. He is losing millions but that is pocket change to him so he can get Trump reelected and become more powerful.

Don’t like pantsuits…

They do it all the time!

This is the guy who voted for cost cuts on building that ship.

It’s hard to get inside other people’s heads sometimes. The Echo can drive you mad.

I don’t understand why some people doing something stupid is “owning” anybody else

This Great Nation was Founded by Liberals and based on Liberal principles, Liberal Ideals and Liberal values.

conservatives opposed our independence in 1774. conservatives opposed our constitution. conservatives quit the U.S. in 1860. conservatives invaded, made war and killed U.S. soldiers from 1861 to 1865. A conservative killed Lincoln. Every Republican/conservative president since 1929 has had a depression or recession, some had two. The only president to resign his office in disgrace of being a crook was a conservative. conservatives opposed women’s right to vote. conservatives opposed, and still oppose, social security and Medicare. The only violent transition of power came in 2021 supported by conservatives and led by the fascist insurrectionist tRump. conservatives still defend and support him and his insurrection.

conservatives are the enemy of the United States of America, and have been since 1774.

You can’t fix stupid.

Ah, Darwin award winner eh !

I wonder if he’d refuse a ride from a couple of gay black men?

Republicans have to lie and cheat any way that they can or they will cease to exist. Intimidating voters and dropping people from voting rolls are just their methods. In phone surveys, when people are given a choice on issues that affect their daily life, taken from both Republican and Democratic Party publications, those who identify themselves as Democrats agree with the Democrats about 80% of the time. Independents do too, about 58% of the time. The weird thing is that 42% of Republicans agree with the Democratic positions too, unless they are told which is which. Then they fall into line and agree with the Republicans 78% of the time. People who identify as Republicans make up somewhere between 30% and 42% of the voters, depending on the year. It’s currently way down. 78% of 42% is 33%. The Republicans would never win another national election with those odds. So, the Republicans have to keep as many people from voting as possible, and keep the rest of them confused enough to vote against their own best interests.

Let’s get in the swim of things

Democrats are always happy to vote against their rights.

Whatever happened to “pwn?”

Don’t count on it lady, but you know what you and your friends and their friends and their friends all of us women, we can vote for our own interests and not just for president. We can vote for senators and governors and congressmen and state legislators. We can vote for judges that will protect the rule of law. We can vote for the future because We are not going back.

Don’t forget HIM the pumpkin head.

Space Cadet?

Some people shouldn’t vote. On all sides. Interesting take on a trope Gary Larson is still the master of.

This is the mistake Democrats always make. These Republicans are NOT “voting against their interests.” Rather, their interests are not the same as yours.

You might value things like economic prosperity, women’s rights, freedom, equity, and the like. But they don’t. They give up so much in order to get what they want even more. Stop seeing them through your filter and values, and try to see them through theirs. You don’t have to agree with them, nor even accept their views. But if you’re striving to understand why they do what they do and support whom they support, it will help you to stop evaluating them with your values.

Now that the lecture has concluded, here’s your homework: What DO they value and vote for? (C’mon, it’s an easy one.)

Sorry Wiley as someone that is living on social security as compared to a millionaire such as yourself we’re going to have different issues

Ratkin: It’s idiots like you that are ruining this country!
