F you, Taylor Swift!” shouted Megyn Kelly, “and f all of the people who want to see these children have body parts chopped off.”

For those not fluent in Republican crazy-speak, Kelly’s meltdown was triggered by Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris the night before, barely one hour after Trump all but face-planted on the debate stage. Kelly was especially triggered by Swift highlighting her appreciation for vice presidential nominee Tim Walz’s support of LGBTQ+ rights.

Other right-wing commentators, like Ben Shapiro, took another approach: making fun of Swifties. “Note: if you vote for a particular candidate because your favorite singer is doing so, please don’t vote. You are too stupid to vote,” wrote Shapiro on X. Meanwhile, Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet, threatened to impregnate her.

    One of the Republican talking points in this election is that parents are sending their kids to school in the morning and they are coming home with their dicks chopped off in the afternoon because Democrats are performing operations on them to turn them trans. Yes, it is very weird and completely untrue.

      Conservatives consider this made-up conspiracy more serious than the actual school shootings that leave kids dead every week.

        No, those children would have crippling medical debt for the rest of their lives if conservatives had their way.

        What if…and I’m just spitballing here…dicks got shot off during a school shooting?

          Maybe if we start calling mass shootings “post birth abortions” Republicans will start giving a crap about trying to stop them.

      LOL. I see the connection now. I knew all of the pieces but I guess it takes a psycho to put it together.

      It’s depressing that you have to even say that it’s untrue.
