In the wake of last night’s missile strikes on Syria, Trump is declaring “mission accomplished!” (Haven’t we heard this before?) Meanwhile, his fans on the far right, from literal Nazi Assad lovers to not-quite-Nazi America Firsters are crying foul. Alex Jones is literally crying.

Alex Jones seems to disagree.

Apparently it’s all the fault of the Deep State.

Meanwhile, every right-wing shithead that has spent the past several years demonizing brown-skinned refugees as terrorists is suddenly a humanitarian.
The Alt-Right is shedding crocodile tears about Syrian civilians dying in Trump's bombing campaign, despite having spent years calling all Syrian refugees murderous rapists.

The weirdest thing about Trump’s base coming unglued about him violating his America First principles by bombing Syria is that they really believed he had principles.

Among those feeling betrayed, Ann Coulter, who spent the day retweeting angry alt-rightists denouncing their former God Emporer Trump. There is a slight irony here.
The author of a book literally titled "In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!" continues to be SHOCKED that Trump is an unprincipled liar. https://t.co/5zcWJzcv2U

Coulter also retweeted this legitimately cute video, which I thought was a nice change from her usual horribleness.

Not all right-wing racists are mad at Trump, though.

There are several problems with that last tweet, not least the fact that this is not actually a picture of Damascus.

Back here in the US, Starbucks is calling the cops on black men for … going to Starbucks? And the cops are arresting them.

Starbucks needs to buy them free coffee for life.
From somewhere else, so they don't have to go to Starbucks.

OH SHIT IT’S CHIO. Hi! =D
If you’re taking about Mrex, don’t worry, she got banned.
Hi Chiomara. Nice to see you pop up again.
@SFHC
I was, but sockpuppets are a thing.
Starbucks is one of the several places which donates to Israeli soldiers to continue to murder Palestinians so it’s obviously just another islamphobe/racist being an idiot thinking Arabic writing is herp derp terrorist writing something or rather.
It’s not new here is another example of Anything Arabic=terrorism
https://www.reddit.com/r/ShitRedditSays/comments/7zibx7/re_a_handbag_with_a_joke_in_arabic_on_it_its/
This is what happens when you don’t actually do research. And btw the irony is we already have a “Sharia law” here it’s called the “Alt right”.
@Fruitloopsie
The donuts story is even better, its not even in Arabic its in Elvish!
Apparently its from a shop that makes novelty donuts and that one is a LoTR reference.
Yeah, it’s a donut version of the One Ring. ^^;
When Alex wasn’t crying this week he was telling tall tales about how when he was 13-14 all this 17 year old hot chicks wanted to date him but then after a few dates tried to convert him to Satanism, like multiple times. Like 14 year old Alex Jones is like “oh, here she goes with the Satanism pitch, I should’ve known.”

@JoeB
I have a hard time believing that. Jones was a 14 year old at one point?
What happened, did he regress or something?
“The horse clans will engage the Enemy in a diversionary battle at the Black Gate, while Toruk Makto flies high above Mount Doom and simply drops the donut in!”
“Are you sure he can do it? One does not simply fly over Mordor!”
“It’s not impossible, I used to bullseye womprats in my T-16 back home, and they’re not much bigger than two meters.”
… I’ll show myself out now.
@Chiomara
Oh my stars you’re back it’s so good to see you again!

Christopher Cantwell, Alex Jones… for being all manly men, these right-wingers sure are quick to tears when something goes wrong….
re: trump,
“The Farce is strong in this one…”
Welcome back, Chio!
I am not a fan of writing in foreign languages just for the hell of it, but that handbag is cool enough for me !
Why would Alex Jones convert to Satanism when he’s already a demon?
@buttercup

@Chiomara
Nothing really surprises me anymore. Anyone who REALLY wants to know whats going on should definitely check this out, its a pretty scary warning from a history and religion professor. Pretty damn eye opening: https://ancientprophecy.weebly.com/
@Surplus: don’t go yet! You haven’t left delivery instructions for that internets you won!
Usually, the story is that the guy converts to Xtianity to date the pretty Xtian girl.
I find it so amazing that men will happily admit that they think with their dick instead of their brains and yet still claim they are more logical than women.

Awww super cute kitty!
@Ryan:
The link there is one more layer of nested URL shorteners/trackers than I’m able to unravel without just rolling the dice on it.
What is at the center of the onion, a Rickroll?
@Surplus to Requirements, Observer of the Vast Blight-Wing Enstupidation:
See, that’s the conspiracy. Everyone *thinks* the Bilderberg/Illuminati/Jooz/Lizards are controlling the NWO, but it’s actually Rick Astley.
“Surrender your dark power, Lord Astley!”
“Ha! I shall NEVER give you up!”
@shadowplay I have a hard time believing he’s grown past 14
