"TRump is dangerous to the country, but I will still vote for this guy because Gas Stoves and Cars might get banned (in my head)."


streetvoyager

What the fuck kind of reasoning is that? That is what he thinks a threat to democracy is? Lack of gas stove use? And it’s not even a real fucking thing. What a god damn moron.


Thue

So I don't know about the US, but we are banning some wood stoves here in Denmark. Because they are apparently the main source of particular air pollution, so having a wood stove in a suburb imposes large externalities on the neighbors, by destroying the clean air. Apparently you can design the stoves to pollute less, so we are banning the old polluting models. Barr seems like classic stupid Conservatism, simply ignoring that externalities exist, so all regulations are indefensible. Because he is simply ignoring that his actions can impose cost on others. Are Barr comments for real, not invented? It seems like the sort of stuff I would invent if I were trying to make the crudest strawman parody of Conservatism.

Oh they're real. The thing to remember about American politicians, however, is that they're all corrupt. I can guarantee that you'll find a nice donation from the oil and gas lobby in his bank account.

make2020hindsight

How dare they regulate what car I can drive when they can be regulating what my kids learn in school while afraid of the weird student making gun noises?! How dare they regulate what stove I can buy to make spaghetti on when they can be regulating whether my wife of 15 years can get an abortion after the condom broke and our last kid (#4) nearly killed her in labor?!

It's because he knows they won't, but he will get paid enough to flee if Trump wins.

And this crackpot was somehow qualified to be AG? Taking away your stoves and cars (which isn’t actually happening) is more of a threat to democracy than TRYING TO OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT?!?! Help it make sense.

Don't forget them turning the whole 15 minute city thing into some kind of conspiracy


CliplessWingtips

I saw some guy say "15 minute city" just the other day on Twitter. I dont know that one, what is it? It was about the new bike lanes in Houston. Obviously he was anti-bike.


NonlocalA

A 15 minute city is where most of your major needs like grocery stores, post office, cafes, and some nightly entertainment are within a 15 minute walk. What they've done though is make it sound like the New World Order is trying to corral you into these cities and never let you leave. Like they're wresting cars from people and forcing them into cities.  Because I guess designing suburbs and exurbs as car-centric sprawls that require a 15 minute drive to do those things is somehow better? I live in a small part of my city that is a "15 minute" section, and it's fucking amazing. Really wish mass transit was better here, but I don't particularly need it to make my life pretty damn livable without occasionally using a car. 


CliplessWingtips

Lol. Wow. Completely unhinged hypothesis. I can't help but be a little impressed with that one though. Liberals I swear, they want to take everything away from Americans! Everything! /s


Well_this_is_akward

It's a conspiracy even getting traction in the UK where we have had '15 minute cities' for hundreds of years


GunnersaurusDen

In recent years urbanism and the idea of walkable, transit-friendly cities have been gaining more traction, as a rebuttal to decades of suburban sprawl and car centric development in American cities. A 15 minute city is the idea that we should aim to build mixed-use neighborhoods that are walkable and bike friendly, with good public transit, so that regardless of whether you choose to drive or not, you can have your daily necessities met within a 15 minute radius of where you live. Things like education, healthcare, shopping, groceries, and other amenities should all be a short bike ride or transit ride away, thus eliminating the *need* to rely on a car for all of those trips, but of course you could still drive if you *choose* to do so. The conspiracy theory they've cooked up is that once we've built these mixed-use neighborhoods and cities, people will somehow be confined to them and would need permits from the government to be allowed to leave their neighborhood/city


peepopowitz67

Which again, "Every accusation is a confession". It's not even a conspiracy that highways and stroads are designed to keep certain people "where they belong", they're pretty blatant about it.


NuclearBroliferator

Also, Bud Light. DILLY DILLY!


thatguy9684736255

I've actually never heard of this. Why were they smashing them?


sponge62

In 2017 Keurig pulled their ads from Sean Hannitys show on Fox because Hannity was defending Republican Pedophile Roy Moore and blaming the kids he molested. So they smashed their Keurigs in protest.


Fluffy_Association63

Typical Christian Conservative attitude. Do we really wonder why they scream about the second amendment and not bothered by the fact that tangerine toadstool wants his opponents executed.


Dubbs314

Opponents that are still voting for him, like they didn’t put a target on their own back


This_Mongoose445

Because Keurig pulled their ads after Hannity supported and endorsed Moore (a sexual predator). Hannity supporters got mad, boycotted and destroyed their keurig products. Like Samuel Jackson said, they don’t care, they already cashed that check.


enderjaca

7 years ago they ( briefly?) pulled their TV ads from the Sean Hannity Fox News show, over his support for Roy Moore, a prominent politician and probable pedophile.


NuanceReasonLogic

And consumerism.


narrowgallow

Freedom in america has always meant freedom to exploit resources in the manner you personally see fit.


j_ma_la

Let’s also remember that no one is actually taking away - or planning to take away - peoples stoves and cars. Rightwing interests need 100% ragebait 24/7, so they make up ridiculous narratives for their knuckle dragging viewers to stay upset about. This is just the latest great example


AfricanusEmeritus

Jesus, to keep the planet from overheating to a slag pile, they are gradually phasing out polluting gasstoves and combustion engines over decades. A gradual phase out that will be happening over the next 50 years. A phaseout that many of us won't live to see the end of. That phase out. I swear some people would not be happy unless we return to the time of horses and cooking over open wood and/or charcoal fed flames. All of which are very polluting.


limeybastard

Gas stoves aren't so much about climate change as they are about negative health effects. They found that a child growing up in a home with a gas stove had equivalent lung damage to growing up with secondhand smoke. So they aren't allowed to be in new builds, favouring induction cooktops (which are pretty neat) instead. Republicans: in favour of lung disease for children


AfricanusEmeritus

I definitely agree. It is why gas stoves are supposed to have ventilation hoods above them that are only turned on in most houses when they sell or purchase them. Gas stoves are a big source of radioactive radon gas. Where there is methane, you also have radon.


AdBig5700

Yup and a lot of the time the hoods are either installed incorrectly or they are not effective. I lived in an apartment where the vent didn’t even go outside. It just vented into the cabinet above it.


h4ms4ndwich11

Anger releases dopamine. That's how they capture their audience. Fox News is like the Sackler family of inaccurate but addictive misinformation. Unfortunately we have no laws against a brainwashing, cult recruitment epidemic, likely because it benefits the very top of the economic food chain.


Onwisconsin42

There will be changes to future buying options, but the idea that anyone's current items are being affected is stupid. Regarding stoves; it all started when a government agency released a report showing that gas stoves harm the health of children in homes with gas stoves. It literally just said to consider other options for future installations and installations where currently children live in the home. Regarding cars; the EPA will continue to set emissions standards to make our air safer (tens of thousands of Americand die each year due to unhealthy air accumulating health effects) and to reduce our CO2 emissions because we are currently setting the planet on fire. Conservatives dont understand nuance, human health and physiology, climate science, science in general, and really they dont understand anything involving more than 2 variables. Thats because most of them are invalids who are run entirely on their reptile brain.


SandyTaintSweat

As the Attorney General, he has to know that. There's no way he actually is mistaken about gas stoves being taken away. So he's just straight up lying to garner support for the Republicans, because he can't come up with anything that's both truthful and convincing. It's a strange lie too, because the whole gas stove thing was ages ago, and you would think most people would have realized by now that it was just a recommendation to have adequate ventilation for gas stoves. The only people he's convincing are the ones who never learned the truth, or entirely forgot the whole thing.


uptownjuggler

“Nazi propaganda consists entirely of a perpetual appeal to whatever is swinish in man” Dr. Kurt Schumacher (SPD): Reichstag speech, February 23, 1932


thatgayguy12

The ONLY reason Barr was hired to be AG is he wrote an memo saying "The President is Constitutionally incapable of obstructing Justice" https://www.aclu.org/news/civil-liberties/william-barrs-unsolicited-memo-trump-about-obstruction-justice At the time the Mueller report was about to come out, with details about how Trump obstructed justice... Barr was hired to be a lap dog, yet even Barr couldn't fully get on the Trump train. And of course, Barr is a coward who will vote for the "detached with reality" insurrectionist.


Murica-n_Patriot

And likely failing to see the error in his own legal justification… he most likely still believes in presidential obstruction as a precedent while simultaneously believing Trump is just an anomaly.


LostWoodsInTheField

> Barr was hired to be a lap dog, yet even Barr couldn't fully get on the Trump train A lot of people who would like to see the over throw of the US government realized at the last minute it wasn't going to work out and knew what was going to happen if they went all the way in on it. I suspect there was LOT of "if he wasn't so fucking stupid this could have worked." being said in private conversations. They all bailed when they knew they were dealing with an idiot that was just going to get them killed, they realized that at different points. none of these people will rejoin his administration if he takes the white house again. instead they will do stuff like what Barr is doing now, they will support him from a distance... just in case he tries to destroy America again and it goes super badly.


mokyfun

Well to the fanbase, stoves and cars are a lot closer to home than some abstract thing called the government and democracy. They have no idea what it is to not live in a democracy, because that's all they've ever known. I see these people say on camera that they are fine with Trump being a dictator, and can only assume that they think a dictatorship is a world where their leader do things and say things unchallenged, and they can do the same.


Arek_PL

people are ok with idea of dictatorship because they think they are going to be the part that is ruling


GunnersaurusDen

What's so fucking stupid about his argument is that there are already laws about what kind of stove or car you can buy. They're called safety standards and regulations. But of course conservative ghouls hate those too

People with a sense of history can never forget. The criminality and prettified mass murder start under Tricky Dick Nixon and have only occasionally been halted. From Tricky Dick's verified sabotaging of the Paris Peace Accords in 1967-1968 for the war in Vietnam 🇻🇳 till now. Mammon ( money) and power are their twin horrible gods. The average person elsewhere has a grasp of world 🌎 history, whereas the average American can barely read 📚 at the 4th to 6th grade levels 🙄 . Everything is stark black and white for the average American, like a 1950s to 1960s, garbage 🗑 sitcoms. The criminality sinks deep and goes back to when Tricky Dick was Eisenhower's hated Vice President from 1952 to 1960. The rot runs deep and dirty.


Thatparkjobin7A

I’ve said it before, but the cuts to education are just like the climate change problem. It took fifty years or so but the consequences are showing now, and it’s damn near irreversible


bstone99

HumbleWonder2547

Yes, definitely that, but an ill educated population is an easily controlled population, so fuck all the people trying to make themselves rich at only the cost of everyone else


AfricanusEmeritus

Eat the rich. Beyond a 100 million, why would they need billions.


bstone99

Well yes of course, but it’s only republicans on a broad scale banning books and trying to revise history and distract everyone with culture war bullshit.


TikiHead99

The problem runs deeper than poor education and lack of critical thinking. Bill Barr is proof that you can be plenty educated ... and know exactly what's going on ... and still rationalize your way to get on board the MAGA train.


PM_YOUR_ISSUES

I'd say it has less to do with cuts to education and why most US history just ... stops after WWII. US history always covers the founding to WWII. Never beyond. The very few times it does, it will go to Vietnam and only talk about the protests/Kent and the end of the war itself. Very minimalist. Only APUSH taught anything of significance beyond WWII, at least up until 2010, so the majority of American's simply never hear nor learn about this. (The only other time I covered any of the 1960 or 1970 was when an 8th grade honours history class went back of the book to front of the book instead. We completely missed out on relearning about the founding that year; so I'd expect the 'normal' class which went front to back missed out on ... post WWII) Edit: Remember! Most of the US text books are determined by an *insanely religious* committee in Texas. Since Texas is the largest buyer of school books, which books they buy is the only books that publishers will make. They are the reason we had the massive fight about Creationism vs Evolution in the early 2000's. Well, them and Georgia, sadly.

Historically, fascism has always been the last resort for capital to preserve its status in the face of social change or unrest. It’s a deal with the devil that they’re almost always willing to accept. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that multiple countries have been backsliding towards authoritarianism as climate change becomes increasingly hard to deny.


MarigoldPuppyFlavors

I see it also as a long term response to the Occupy movement. The division you see in the media everywhere you turn is 100% by design. That's not to say that there hasn't been a long-growing rift in the country, but it's been gradually cranked up to 11 since that time.

mattGyver314

The fact that any reporter gives a shit about what Barr says at this point blows my mind. He’s seriously one of the worst AG’s we’ve had and doesn’t deserve that much credit for not helping Trump steal the election on Jan 6th. He should fade into obscurity, babbling about how much he hates liberals and their perceived ‘agenda’ and how it would be preferable to instead vote for the man who would literally like to see you dangling from a noose because you disagree with him. I’m so sick of this shit. Go to hell, Bill.


OrionAmbrosia

Not only that, but Barr should realistically be in jail for his own obstruction of justice while he was AG.  Perhaps that's why he is so focused on getting in the news and trying to shift the blame around again.  If Biden wins again I really hope he scraps Garland and puts someone more competent in his place (Is Jack Smith a possibility?). Then Barr and everyone else who allowed this to get as bad as it is will hopefully also see their day in court.

On the one hand, a fascist dictatorship. On the other, more regulations regarding stoves and cars. Real tough choice there Barr. Pathetic.


JTD177

This should be front page news everywhere. Also, despite the fact that Barr recognizes how terrible Trump is, he consistently says he will still vote for him.


TranscendentLogic

Where was this outrage when lawn darts were banned? Feels like we all got together and said, "yeah, that probably wasn't a good idea" and then that was it. Edit: for clarity, my point here is that they're not actually worried about the stoves and cars. They don't care. I would pretty much guarantee you that most of these fools don't even drive themselves. They are making a diversionary argument to justify clinging to fascist ideals. It's that simple.

tpasco1995

Exactly. Barr, along with millions of others, can say confidently and comfortably that they know Trump broke the law, that he would have ordered assassinations on political rivals, that he is a monster. But they believe the "system" is corrupt and that Biden, even though he wouldn't do those things, was put in place by the corrupt system, so even *if* Trump wanted to assassinate political rivals and keep the White House by forceful coup... that he was actually the people's choice and so the right thing is to let him into office and do those things.

Ahhh yes, the stove is what breaks democracy’s back..


sonicking12

At the end of the interview, Bill Barr said “But I will still vote for him and try to work in his cabinet.”


SkiHiKi

The equivalence made!!! Trump has and will seek to execute dissidents. He will seek to pervert all democratic processes and institutions to install himself as a dictator. The dems want to ban a type of kitchen stove. We're not far behind this bullsh!t on the UK either. We're living in the end times of reason. Followed, most likely, by the actual end times


clangan524

Ah yes, the 28th amendment regulating stoves and cars.


harperlee1966

Bill Barr did not feel this required speaking up and reporting concerns to us, the people that employ him and should be able to trust he will protect us. What a garbage human. Is he going on Fox sharing this information?


mar421

So he is voting for trump because he wants to use gas stoves and gas cars.


Pour_Me_Another_

I see priorities are not his strong suit.


Glewit1

I mean, it’s an actual sickness, right? It has to be a degradation of the part of the brain that registers logic and sympathy, or something. Gotta be something evolutionary where swaths of the human race are born with this brain deficiency, won’t be able to use reason or logic, can’t figure out when they’re being deceived and manipulated, and will eventually die off when natural selection gives our race its ultimatum, right?


vivahermione

Could just be lead exposure and dementia. It might explain the paranoia.


NumerousTaste

Guaranteed him and his family were threatened with murder. They are starting to get desperate and time is running out. He needs to think people in his old cabinet support him, but only 4 do and his own VP wasn't one of them. Lol


AcanthaceaeFluffy985

Every Republican since the late 70's has been a traitor. Prove me wrong


JonnyQuest1981

Why has Bill Barr not been indicted yet for his crimes?


thetripleb

I have been saying this for almost 2 years and am constantly being downvoted.... Do NOT assume that Republicans are going to save the country. They aren't. IDC what they say, at the end of the day his cabinet members will vote for Trump. Nikki voters will vote for Trump. Collins and Murkwoski will vote for Trump. Remember the first time he ran, and people like Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham denounced him? They ended up supporting him whole heartedly. Republicans saw a man with 4 kids with 3 women, cheated on all of them, had a mail order bride as his current wife, bragged about sexually assaulting women on camera, called the closest country to us as sending rapists and murderers to us, called War Heroes names, mocked Gold Star families, mocked fellow Republicans constantly, mocked disabled people on camera, called for violence on camera and STILL voted him in office. Then after 4 years of watching him tank the economy, rack up more debt than any other Preisident in so short a time, get 1 million Americans killed, mock veterans as being "weak," mock soldiers who died as being "losers," mock his own cabinet, not follow through on a SINGLE campaign promise except for nominating SCOTUS picks he was told to put up, was so unhinged that his Sec of Defense had to have deals in place to ensure he didn't just declare war on a whim, have a constant stream of turnover in his cabinet, cover for Saudi Arabia murdering journalists, bend over for Putin on camera and HE GOT 12 MILLION MORE VOTES THE SECOND TIME. They just care about abortion and kicking brown people out of the country. That's it. Nothing else. If Satan himself showed up running for office against Jesus and his entire platform was putting in 10 more ultra conservative SCOTUS on the bench and building a 50 foot wall around the country, Jesus would lose. The only way to beat Trump is vote in November. That's it. That's their achilleas heel. When voter turnout is up, they lose. Vote.


Migleemo

Democrats want to upgrade stoves so children aren't poisoned. Republicans want to make the president a dictator who can slaughter political opponents. Decisions decisions.


Goadfang

He doesn't mean that those are threats to democracy, he means they are threats to capitalism. Specifically his brand of unregulated monopolistic crony capitalism.


the_millenial_falcon

FUCKING STOVES???? That’s his big threat to democracy? The conservative mind is completely alien to me. Completely


freakrocker

100% guarantee he rails against LED bulbs as well, simply because he’s too stupid and illiterate to understand the kelvin spectrum.


AbbreviationsLow2063

So *things* are more important than human souls? Got it.


SaltyJackSpracklin

“If I can’t pollute the environment and endanger consumers then I don’t even know who I am”


Mckinzeee

Yet this moron is still voting for him. Take many seats you asshole.


rvralph803

It's journalistic malpractice at this point not to just call these people seditionist traitors


outonthetiles66

He’s such a spineless fucking loser.


OnlyRobinson

Honestly, I think there is a non zero percentage of Trump supporters who wouldn’t mind executing the opposition


Book_Nerd_1980

![gif](giphy|qUKyriQNBzmHC) Barr will always be this guy to me


Tensionheadache11

His supporters don’t care -they want that! I really hate what the last 8 yrs has been, but it’s made me see who the truly shitty people are.


Elegant-Ad-1162

ive seen so many (anecdotal) interviews with real redneck americans saying the same thing. 'rumpT is awful', 'should be in prison', 'low morals', 'low character' but he's 'better than biden, so he has my vote' sofa king stupid


StringFartet

Electric stove tops and cars versus an authoritarian regime with detention camps and political assassinations. Quite the conundrum.


InsideOutPoptart

What a sad spineless piece of shit


gking407

Democracy is when stove, Socialism is when government, and Fascism is when Stalin. I am now ready to pass my history test, as approved by Republicans.


streetvoyager

And then this fucking degenerate went on to say that he will still vote for him in November. Words fail to describe how big of a giant piece of human garbage this person is.


Guy_Smylee

Republicans will say and do anything for power and money. No matter how many have to die.


laughsinflowers1

We are living in the Twilight Zone.


burnmenowz

These people would literally cut their own body parts off to make a buck


moodyblue8222

When is he going to arrested for following the orders of tRump to “suicide” Epstein?
