It's not only that you Progressive wankers have no real organizing principles other than resentment. It's not only that you are completely unequipped to defend your own arguments without melting down into an indiscernible puddle of "racist, sexist, homophobe" on the floor. It's that you are so smug and condescending while doing it, so fricking comfortable in your Ruling Class delusions. That you praise yourself with such third rate confirmation-bias satire as this, kind of says it all about not only your intellectual "failure to launch", but the fact that you are damn proud of it. In the end, all you have is resentment and snark: LINK


quote:

LONDON (The Borowitz Report)—The theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking angered supporters of Donald J. Trump on Monday by responding to a question about the billionaire with a baffling array of long words.

Speaking to a television interviewer in London, Hawking called Trump “a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator,” a statement that many Trump supporters believed was intentionally designed to confuse them.

Moments after Hawking made the remark, Google reported a sharp increase in searches for the terms “demagogue,” “denominator,” and “Stephen Hawking.”

“For a so-called genius, this was an epic fail,” Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, said. “If Professor Hawking wants to do some damage, maybe he should try talking in English next time.”

Later in the day, Hawking attempted to clarify his remark about the presumptive Republican Presidential nominee, telling a reporter, “Trump bad man. Real bad man.”


Keep smugly consoling yourself with the self-conceit that you are enlightened and double down on that trade-marked snark. Just make sure to look up every once in a while and notice that you are getting your arse handed to you.

That proves Hawking doesn't know everything about how the universe works.

Good points, Pimpness. Just don't mention this to any of your female Democrat friends.

Democratic women 3 times more likely to unfriend you on social media

Does Hawking's knowledge of current events come only from what his caretakers show him?

Given his severe physical limitations, it could be that his information about Trump only comes from the MSM and that is the only lens that he has viewed from.

Hawking is such a vulnerable and dependent human being that it's no surprise that he takes the easy road, the way that gets the most praise from his smug colleagues. He would never come out strong in truth, it might offend too many of his caregivers.

Andy Borowitz is a comedian and The Borowitz report is satire.

I love how dems label all Trump supporters as low IQ and then pander to poor African Americans and Mexicans. Just incase they're not aware those are statistically the lowest IQ groups in our country.

Hence the following in the OP:

That you praise yourself with such third rate confirmation-bias satire as this,

Funny that you would think that other people didn't get that obvious fact.

While I appreciate Hawking's contribution to the scientific community, ironically he comes across like just another melting liberal trying to revive his declining relevance.

Hawking's comments show that even an intelligent person who is handicapped can be a member of C.U.N.T. (Cucks United to Neutralize Trump).

He always looks so disheveled and lost in thought...just playing up the "eccentric scientist" shtick?

You people do realize this is satire correct? Sadly judging by the comments probably not..

Maybe the comments are satire..double satire phenomenon..like an inverted herkimer, only not inverted, but double. Did you realize that possibility??
