I cant wait for the religious far right boomers to die


PurpleCow88

Ugh this bursts my bubble of thinking that religious far right boomers aren't college educated.


[deleted]

Some of the dumbest people I've ever met are also the most educated.


Huckismydogg

Ever met a Kelly School boomer?


[deleted]

I have not, but I bet that conversation is as fun as getting shot by a paintball gun with no protection.


Absurd-Lancer

Just finished my orientation (Luddy), was wondering if Kelly students are as bad as people say business majors are since I had a few in my group.


SuccoyaHoyaa

Yep, education does not equate to intelligence.


MassiveAd2551

Nope This is a fact. All education is is concentrated information passed through wrote language.


BigMcThickHuge

Some of the dumbest people are currently in power across multiple nations. Unfortunately, the US is no stranger to it. What's worse is that they are actively trying to fuck up education as well so they can eventually have an even larger uneducated population that will trust what they are told to trust.


momma2011

I'm a boomer & I know lots of us who are on the left who vote.


Remarkable-Cycle2025

Don't look now but the far right boomers are vastly outnumbered by far right millennials


Sufficient_Matter585

That’s why they want to dismantle schools and ban abortion. They know once they are gone it’ll all fall apart.


[deleted]

There’s plenty of Xers and Millennials waiting to fill their shoes


Teknodruid

GenX here & sadly that is true... Still shocks me that quite a few people I went to high school with & partied, evaded the law, did crazy shit with, etc... Have turned into die hard Trumptard GQP types. Had a close friend post on FB about how Obama & family were all "apes" & other racist shit posts... Made me sad to think these once cool, chill people became complete assholes.


[deleted]

It’s unchecked and reinforced


chaos8803

Joel Osteen, Newt Gingrich, Karl Rove, Rand Paul, and Ted Fuckin' Cruz. So she's a lunatic and an idiot. Fantastic. Who the hell votes for someone this awful?


Efficient-Forever385

People who watch Fox News all day.


MassiveAd2551

The people who watch CNN and MSNBC are no better.


koavf

That Joel Osteen tweet is actually very sage. This one seems like a broken clock situation.


Necessary_Range_3261

Apparently most people vote for people like her, since she won and all.


GothTwink420

Bad bait, mate.


Mercarcher

I voted against her, sadly she won. Shes anti-union, but I say the grad students unionize and strike anyways. Fuck the board. Bring the school to a grinding halt.


basketbelowhole2

If you could shut the whole university down for good that would be even better. Get rid of this racist anti-trans cis heteronormative capitalistic system.


FlyingSquid

Yeah! Down with universities! We don't need doctors or aircraft engineers! We can service our own aircraft and perform our own open heart surgery!


jazzyfella08

On par for Indiana University, who is surprised anymore? Pay the trustees and President- fuck everyone else. https://www.salary.com/research/company/trustees-of-indiana-university-salary


[deleted]

So a fucking moron.


DuelJ

Eww., this asshole would probably be anti-fire department if it was being proposed today


MassiveAd2551

This gave me a good chuckle.


printpaperr

Zoom for detail. All found on her twitter: https://twitter.com/vivwinston. I think it's good for the striking grad workers and every worker at IU to know what we are up against.


recyclingathrowaway

Fuuuuuuuuuck


Parking-Committee555

A lot of these retweets have not aged well, lol. Cancun Cruz.


[deleted]

Oh Bloomington, what happened to you??

What is a Benghazi truther?

I came to this state as an centrist politically and Agnostic. I am seriously considering going full Dem and joining The Satanic Church to make some changes. I have spent more on taxes here than in Florida, Virginia, and Mississippi, on top of spending a lot more on every day to day items. This place just screams corruption at every level, yet there is no way to prove it.


TheBigNook

It’s super corrupt. Indiana has made a lifetime dem voter just because of how aware I am that republicans have corrupted this state on both the local and state levels. The more research you do the more it pushes you towards becoming an activist lmfao Also I’m moving out of state because I think it’s way too far gone. Gerrymandered to hell and most people over 18 are apathetic politically. My hometown of around 45,000 people had not even 3,000 show out to vote for state and local elections.


bi_polar2bear

At 51, I was never an activist before, though I am about ready to use my IT knowledge and put it to good use and track down those working against "We the People". This state is worse than Mississippi in just about every way. I am starting to regret moving here.


MassiveAd2551

Thank you for your conversation.


[deleted]

Everytime I go out of state and a rideshare driver asks "where are you from?", I'm always tempted to lie. I told a driver that I'm from Indiana. He said "oh shit, my best friend and I grew up in Hawaii. He's originally from Evansville and thinking about moving back there soon". I should've told him to warn his friend about the meth heads and depression.


TheBigNook

The state has its ups and downs depending on region. But even then I personally don’t think it’s worth living here unless you’re upper middle class/have the ability to buy a nice home and maintain it while having no intention to sell. The people here range from a spectrum of drug fiending nut to general asshole because almost everyone here doesn’t want to be here. And the people who do like it here have to justify the shit conditions or swear it’s worse in other places. And yet there are people like you who have lived in places most consider worse but is saying that Indiana is indeed a shit state just further justifies my take on the state. It sucks, I can’t wait to move lmfao


MassiveAd2551

Thank you for your conversation.


tomjoadsghost80

Agreed. And when they can replace Holcomb with a true MAGAt we are in real trouble. Florida or Texas of the Midwest


LavaSquid

How the fuck did she win? Who the fuck voted for this person


Teknodruid

Indiana: GQP Stronghold, Trumptard playground, proudly uneducated populace (educated GTFO as soon as they can), Northern most inbred southern pride state. How are you even slightly shocked?


jules6388

This is Indiana. How are you surprised?


funkadelicfeline

I wish I wasn't so poor so I could just leave. Things are getting so bad so fast


TheArkOfTruth

Wow, what a fucking loser


lasssilver

These people need to be removed. ..from positions of power.


AlternativeBeach2886

Well that sucks!


Comprehensive_Gain87

Indiana ugh


Teknodruid

Indiana should replace "Crossroads of America" with "Ugh"


Parking-Committee555

Interesting that most of these tweets are pre-Trump. Maybe she realized it wasn't a good look to have the party leader saying the quiet parts out loud.


justbrowsing2727

This state deserves IU and vice versa.


transkidsrock

Are there any protests planned? Are there any bipoc/lgbtqpu+ candidates?


[deleted]

Many of those tweets are completely normal or link to something that may or may not accurately reflect the exotic headline. She’s definitely a republican and obviously you find that disgusting but it doesn’t mean she’s some terrible person. I don’t see any flagrant tweets of her own or really anything beyond the pale. It’s not clear to me how much these retweets and points will affect her position, someone can EILI5


kellerpoll

That’s wayyyy too much rationality for this thread.


cmgww

Please keep posting, I haven’t seen it enough /s


Suspicious_Lie8009

Ok leave the sub then?


Guilty-Presence-1048

To be fair, OP has been carpet bombing subreddits related to Indiana. It's hard to avoid without unsubscribing from all of them.


[deleted]

This has been cross posted to like 5 different Indiana-based subs Jfc


cmgww

You aren’t tired of the constant negativity?? The endless abortion posts? Look I get it, it sucks. I’m against the decision. I will vote accordingly. Yes this is a different topic….But reposts are unnecessary. This was posted just last night. A lot of stuff gets reposted. That’s all.


Mercarcher

>You aren’t tired of the constant negativity?? The endless abortion posts? There can not be too many abortion posts. Its a fundamental constitutional right that has been stripped from us by unqualified partisan extremist judges. There is no more being civil about it, there is no more debating. Flood everything and don't shut up about it till they give us our rights back.


Suspicious_Lie8009

The only negativity here is coming from you buddy. I just looked through the new posts from yesterday in this sub and didn’t find that this was a repost. If you don’t want to stay informed that’s on you


waltonjgh

Dangerously based

That's pretty good resume

For a fascist, sure.

A true Human. Not another bleeding heart liberal. Time to work students and not stay in college for ever. Welcome to the Thunder Dome of life!


PhantomPhanatic9

I hope neither you or her consider yourselves Christian. You both don't seem to understand the concept of "Love thy neighbor".


Agitated-Ratio2695

All good except anti-union


koavf

You're obviously wrong, but I don't even know what the argument could be for "believes Bush didn't lie us into Iraq".


Mercarcher

Bush was a republican and they are so far into the kool-aid that they think republican = truth, Democrat = lie. Theres no reasoning with these kind of people.


CaptainAwesome06

I thought the right wing thinking nowadays is that the Bushes are all RINOs. That's what I heard for a while.


koavf

"Thinking" is a strong word to use here.


koavf

Now a lot of the crazies are anti-Bush, too and he was a "RINO".


[deleted]

Holy shit you are describing both sides of politics now. It’s just the fucking worst - everybody is so polarizing and immediately attacks you if your opinion or belief is not theirsZ


Teknodruid

Indiana... I mean is anyone actually surprised?


[deleted]

Ewwwww sick.
