Seriously, at one point I did a quasi-serious census of 20 posts and there was 1-2 apolitical ones, maybe one where republicans were treated fairly, and rest were all something that should be on r/RepublicansPostingTheirLs instead.
Posting here because topic. LeopardsAteMyFace is almost exclusively "person against my politics had something negative occur to them", when LAMF is really a monkey's paw, per their own sub description;
I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party. Revel in the schadenfreude anytime someone has a sad because they're suffering consequences from something they voted for or supported or wanted to impose on other people.
The main post on the sub is even a sticky explaining the nature of it, front and center;
So it's supposed to be about, say, a senator banning chicken subs from being too dry and then a month later blasting subway on Twitter for drenching his food in sauce and oil. Yet here's some trending posts on the front page from yesterday;
The first does not fit the mold, in any way. There is no reversal, there is no hoisting oneself by their own petard, it's someone not wanting to join forces over a common enemy. It tracks pretty well with wanting to get away from troons actually, the person is already exclusionary and further wanting to be exclusive in their associations.
The second is just le right = bad. Kristi was not encouraging animal cruelty and then wandering why people weren't supporting her, she wasn't advocating for beating your dog, she does did in private and it leaked.
The third is actually a democrat, so good for at least showing an air of impartiality, but even then it doesn't actually fit if you read the story. The line about him declaring the rape law which he voted for (true) unconstitutional is
not directly attributed. The hyperlinks to other stories from the NY Post also don't have that quote. Someone made this up out of thin air, when the reality is that that embellishment and reddit tier title wasn't needed; the guy already qualified for LAMF by signing into law an act that removed the statute of limitations on rape and allowed a case against him just before the extension was due to end.
Again, hahaha muh yt colon eye zer, but the oldest English people alive today would not have even had been a twinkle in their father's eye when the colonizing period was
ending - in fact the eldest Britains today voted to decolonize or are descendents of those who did so.
This is just a super editorialized news headline - is it LAMF because you took a job and then left it when you had a disagreement with your boss?
Obvious bait/sarcasm posted as if real. Also not a LAMF moment if you sour for someone you voted for - the requirement is not liking a specific policy/thing you explicitly supported. An idiot absolutely could vote for Ron and then get mad he wants to ban teaching kids about goatse.
More WhitePeopleTwitter than anything else. Just more evidence for the rotting and enshitification of reddit subs from their purpose.
Barely LAMF material, but the comments are tasty;
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS HURTS MY SIDE THIS ISN'T LAMF ANYMORE NOOOOOOOOOOO
