Mike: wait what happened?
Jerry: Well to put it into Laywoman’s Terms, she told me that she “had a dream that I cheated on her with her friend Nichole who is a Scorpio born on a full moon, and her amethyst crystal said our relationship was incompatible”.
Mike: that makes no god damn sense.
Jeremy: exactly

The Weaponization of the term 'Anti-Semitism'

Oh, what!? They're just weaponizing the term!? They're just using it completely arbitrarily to demonize their political opposition!? Wow! Boy-oh-jeez I wonder where they got THAT EXACTLY IDEA from... 🤔 HMMMMMMM.... It's a head-scratcher... God, well... I just- I just don't know! Who could they POSSIBLY have gotten THAT from.... Hmmmm...

Hym "Oh no! Wahappan? Wahappan guys? You see, it's usually the right-wingers who are the Anti-Semitisms. But now they're calling US that! What... What's going on!? I don't understand! Literally ALL I care about in life is 1. Not being a racism and or making sure other people aren't even racism-adjacent and 2. Taking money from people who have more money than me and giving it to the poor for my Robinhood fantasy! That's literally just politics is Robinhood fantasy versus The Punisher fantasy. But where did The Weaponization of the term 'Anti-Semitism' come from? Who gave them that idea? God, it's so weird! Just calling someone a phobe or a bigot just, you know, entirely arbitrarily... Who could have possibly given them THAT idea? Cus it's the right wing that is all the racisms... I don't know. Maybe write a book about it. Get the historical precedent or something because the shit-libs aren't the ones who get called Anti-Semitisms. You guys get all the Anti-Semitisms and my side is all the good people, right? That's how the team works. My team is the good one and YOU GUYS are the Anti-Semitisms. You don't call me the Anti-Semitisms cus that's not how this works."
