Last week, Tracy and Dale McMullen sold their vacation home in Buckeye, Arizona, a property they owned for five years. The Alberta residents, who usually spend four to five months in Arizona a year, said they are not planning to come back.

“We decided to sell the property after the current POTUS took office,” said Dale, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump, who was inaugurated for the second time in January.

“It was time to leave. We felt we could not trust what he might do next to us as individuals and to our country. We no longer felt welcome nor safe.”

“Too bad, so sad” - JD Vance

Another social media user who can't resist mimicking JD Vance and behaving like JD Vance. The "JD Vance" mind virus has got you. You have brought the JD Vance thinking, JD Vance values to Lemmy here this morning on Wednesday April 23, right here, right now.

That's how the people behave, they become like Donald Trump, Elon Musk, JD Vance in behavior, thinking, and electric media communications.

Yes, my impression of JD Vance is what is offensive here. Strange take.

Offensive? no. Bad.... anti-intellectual, copying the mannerisms and your brain adopting Donald Trump behavior.

Strange take.

Yes, it isn't Twitter-thinking Twitter-length copying and mimicking the behaviors of Twitter users like JD Vance and Elon Musk and Donald Trump do in the White House / on the world stage of Fox News / CNN / other media systems, including Reddit, Lemmy, Bluesky.

Get off your high horse.

Rambling, repetitious, pretentious blocks of incoherent text aren't a sign of some greater intellect, just that you're full of yourself

Get off your high horse.

Yes, join you down in the Elon Musk, Donald Trump, JD Vance anti-thinking reactionary hate harder values you are wanting and craving in April 2025.

Rambling, repetitious, pretentious blocks of incoherent text aren’t a sign of some greater intellect, just that you’re full of yourself

Ignore my personal writing if you hate so much that I don't communicate in the shit-talk and hate-speech of JD Vance that you have adopted since 2024, read the books and content I keep referencing and pointing to every day. This is my personal diary, why can't you engage with great content instead of repeating JD Vance and worshiping his shit ideas, thinking systems, and messages? Why can't you dust off Neil Postman's 1985 book "Amusing Ourselves to Death" and use Neil Postman's professionally edited words to describe April 2025 social media society instead of shit-talk me on Lemmy, as your brain is locked in junk meme consumption like Donald Trump does on Truth Social and Twitter?

Rambling, repetitious, pretentious blocks of incoherent text aren’t a sign of some greater intellect

You are the one with Twitter-length brain mirroring the social machine usage of Donald Trump, JD Vance, Elon Musk. I'm doing everything I can to get people to stop being in JD Vance meme stupors. You are inside the Russian simulacras and unable to escape.
