      I have a feeling they’re going to define anyone who has a college degree and leans anywhere to the left of conservative extremism “low IQ trash”.

        Yep, the Nazis defined socialists as degenerates, so I expect any sign of empathy to be seen as a sign of low IQ.

          They’ve thought this for decades. Tradespeople have been resenting college nerds who don’t have common sense (funny thing is I’m both of those things). And the cheaters (like tax cheats and grifters) think that the rest of us are dumb for not cheating to get ahead.

          I mean this is less of a “government funded” thing and more of a “you get it done or we cut your balls off ourselves”.

          And personally, I’m of the opinion that now that they want undesirable people sterilized, I won’t submit. The worst thing we can do right now is give them anything.

        Yeah, that’s why they’re trying to make questioning Trump’s greatness a mental disorder. So they can identify us as irredeemable to dispose of us

          Ironically, many of the Republican asshats have degrees, even from (gasp! shock! horror!) Ivy League schools…

          He also attended a white nationalist rally that got him fired from his job as a Trump speech writer, suggested rewards for sterilization like “air jordans”, and a few more pieces that suggest he’s got a pretty easy way to determine who is “low iq” at a quick glance.

          He wants to euthanize non white people

          Edit: Sterilize, not euthanize. I’m sure he would hate to kill all of them

          “Like” as in, present tense?

          I liked it as a kid but I think I outgrew it…so I guess I’m good?

          Doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile…

          Ahh shit.

      Most of Trump’s base was probably cheering him on until he got to this part:

      “The same low-IQ trash who watch the fast and furious franchise.”
