Is this another Jewish space lasers thing?

[–] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 33 points 2 months ago (2 children)

They’re eating the dogs

They’re eating the cats

They’re buying all the houses

They’re monopolizing government services

They’re controlling the weather

They’re starting forest fires with Jewish space lasers

They’re taking our jerbs

Oh she was talking about Orcs.

Honestly, that's still racist. 😕

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They prefer "Uruk", or so I hear.

[–] Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's only Saruman's folk. Most others consider the term "Orc" or "Ork" to be correct.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Saruman's folk are Uruk-hai.

Those come some 1000 years after the first orcs called Uruks in Middle-Earth. https://lotr.fandom.com/wiki/Uruks_of_Mordor

But also I was making a reference to the Rings of Power.

Some people eat dogs. Some people eat cats. Just not the people she’s claiming.

They are buying all the houses, with they being Marjorie’s donors.

They are monopolizing government services, with they being Marjorie’s donors.

They are controlling the weather through pollution, industrialization of green areas, and slew of other problems, with they being Marjorie’s donors.

They are starting forest fires because of their weather control from the point above, again, they are her donors.

They are taking all of our jobs. Guess who they is?

In each case, “they” are the corporatocracy, the ruling class, the billionaires that she panders to.

It’s the G.O.P. mantra: Gaslight. Obstruct. Project.

No, but she wants funding for a space laser to control the border to Mexico.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 13 points 2 months ago

Its been a while since my feed was violated by this crack head, I had forgotten she existed.

Man if THEY are powerful enough to change the fucking weather how the fuck you think the USA is remotely close to beating THEM. Even if every country in the world combined forces they couldn't defeat such a powerful foe.

"We" do exert some control over the weather, in the long term.

She just admitted to believing in climate change.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 9 points 2 months ago

“They” do in a way. But not the they she means. She’s part of the real they.

[–] JimVanDeventer@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Look who's using pronouns.

[–] formergijoe@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

No I think "they" refers to the people who control the space lasers.

[–] shoulderoforion@fedia.io 3 points 2 months ago

the jews are tired man

Who's "they"? Midi-clorians or misi-formatians?
