Most of the other responses are about their choice of fireball. One good house party would change these nerds' lives.
Leftists really should embrace monster trucks. I've been saying this for awhile.
I once had this idea to crowd source buying this giant Lenin head and mounting it to a monster truck frame:
ShowWould be even cooler if you added custom laser eyes and flames shooting out of his nose or something.
I need it to fit a months worth of fizzy water cases in (I'm trying to cut back on drinking)
That thing is fucking massive! Like thousands of feet tall. Those sparks would melt the crowd
How to convert large swaths of rural America to communism. They are already called REDnecks.
Maybe you already know this, but the term redneck, used derogatorily, has roots in anticommunism. It's not a coincidence that RED is part of the insult.

I figured. There's a book called Hammer and Hoe about southern communists I want to read.
Those little Suzuki cars were one of the best models ever made. They were virtually indestructible and like 8k new. You still see some around today.
Eh, it's all aesthetics.
"Slamming a cold one into the capital", monster trucks, and the "dudes will see this image and say hell yeah" type of dudebro humor is really just one degree away from early 2000's "epic bacon" style comedy. If you're guy and don't like these things, you pretty much just politely get told you're gay because even innocuous forms of masculinity demand compliance.
On the other hand, calling it "redneck shit" is just naked classism. While I also don't find a truck with big wheels to be rad, arguing about it is just a platform to be condescending.
I don't even know why I wrote this out. I was gonna stop reading after I saw "look, he's probably fascist, BUT..."
In my personal experience, at least some of the performative masculinity dude bros are actually pretty okay because they just want people to have fun and they cant conceive that people have fun in ways different to theirs.
On the other hand, fun police libs almost always come from a place of wanting to wield a modicum of perceived power over others and are fucking insufferable to be around.
In my communist utopia, the only cars that still exist outside of necessary work functions are monster trucks. If I can't watch truckasaurus eat a smaller car, what's even the point?
I hate how libs dismiss so many people as white trash or redneck or whatever. A lot of those people are reactionary, but it's just classist to assume they are all idiots beyond redemption (actually libs).
Maybe it bugs me so much because my family is basically all redneck. I swear libs would try to classify rednecks as a separate inferior subrace if they could, like they do with slavs.
Compare liberal hatred for poor Republicans to wealthy Republicans. It's clearly classism. Flimsy support for pseudo-progressive causes is just what they use to convince themselves of their superiority over the poors.
They do try to classify them as inferior. They call them inbred
We could start a redneck-is-an-ethnicity movement and watch absolute chaos unfold.
Lots of shit rednecks do isn’t reactionary inherently but is actually fun as hell, and liberals just have a cultural and class aversion to it. Guns, horses, getting drunk at a trashy party, farming - there’s nothing inherently rightwing about any of that but Liberals certainly act like there is
oh lol iirc that guy actually got banned from like half a dozen instances and even from shitjustworks for posting multiple extremely transphobic rants
Edit:
ShowShowShowMfw transphobic scratched libs pretend to care about trans rights so that they can justify being genocide joe fanboys
They must have been really bad, because in my experience most instances don't care about banning transphobes. Not a shocker that he's still posting on .world, because they definitely don't care over there.
I went to a monster truck rally with my kids and it was better than any ballgame I've ever been to hands down
Same here. They know how to entertain a crowd and seem to actually care about the fans.
Old lady neighbor got free Monster Jam tickets and gave them to my family when I was a second grader. One of the best memories I have from my childhood. I was obsessed with the Yankees, but Monster Jam was way better than watching the Yankees play
I went to a demolition derby with my dad once, I came home smelling of beer cuz some drunk guy in a track suit carrying a 4 cup carrier spilled half a print of Miller on me. Great time!
Also why isn't Figure 8 racing more popular?
Dudes will see a truck with giant tires and say "hell yeah"
And tbh why not? Dudes rock, lemmy.world libs do not!
How we feel about seeing a truck with giant tires crushing junked out cars, they feel about voting and Harry Potter merch 🤢
Fireball isn't for all night, it's for starting the night.
It's just fun
I hate normal daily car commuters much more than I hate midnight street racers. Monster trucks very rarely kill pedestrians.
I took my daughter and niece to a monster truck rally a few weeks ago and it was pretty fun. They did flips even, we were freaking out.
Fuck, it's been years since I've been to a monster truck rally. The massive noise'd probably do me in these days, sadly.
Oh I'm very sensitive to sounds, I wore earplugs the entire time.
I imagine I'd have to double up on earplugs and muffs like a range trip
Monster trucks are cool. F-350 super duties with a lift kit and obnoxious mods are anything but cool.
if one in ten US reps isn't regularly plastered on the house floor, i'd be very surprised
Obama ruined all of his relationships being addicted to coke, I'd assume it stayed up in the white house
The only fun you're allowed to have under liberalism is going to see Hamilton and then having brunch after!
Even Liberal entertainment is becoming much less fun. The point of Hamilton isn’t sincere enjoyment but a sort of self-flagellation and moralizing didactic lesson telling hour. It’s a Liberal ritual to rekindle the Civic Religion in their hearts with a new “cool” version of the founding slavers
Fireball is the most basic white girl alcohol possible. You want to impress me? Slam gin, tequila, or absinthe in a federal office. If not for how much sugar's ramrodded into that synthetic cinnamon 'whiskey' shit, I could replace my water canteen with it.
basic white girl
uh oh it’s time for part 2 of the pumpkin spice wars
Okay but what about boofing fireball with squee and the boys?
Jager, Goldschlager, and Rumplemintz was a popular shot when I was in college. I think it was called a dead Nazi with a gold tooth.
They literally had to start adding gross stuff to antifreeze because it was so tasty
My monkey brain gets happy when I throw shit and hit something, and gets excited at loud noises. There is simply a best way to throw shit and hit stuff far away, and get a nice loud noise to go along with it.
Flying Squid is a fucking turbolib, ignore them. I've seen them before, they only have haughty libshit to say.
