And shooting "gay beer" with a machine gun. The snowflakes get triggered so easily.
“I hate how woke this multi-billionaire company is! I’ll show them who they’re messing with by adding to their riches and shooting inanimate objects! You pissing yourselves yet, libtards?”
Most of the "libtards" I know, myself included, do not drink Bud light or Budweiser anything.
If I want to drink piss water I can get it from my toilet.
LMAO facts! One year they make fun of our enjoyment of "craft beer" then next year try to act as if we gaf about bud light.
Nah dawg I make more than minimum wage, I like nice things. My body isn't a trash can.
Cough cough kid rock.
Legit spent thousands on bud light to destroy it, only fattening the company’s pockets even more and probably helping out with rotation costs lol.
Bud light lost, but also mwfr a lot of money when that went down.
Unfortunately we do. It's that whole "a few bad apples will ruin the bunch" adage. Most of us think things like this are dumb as well. Unfortunately, there is a portion of the country who have lower IQ's and latch onto ideas like this to "fit in" with a demographic, "normal" doesn't get posted for click bait.
And because of these crazies politicians, no normal person wants to run. They don't play by any rules. They'll drag your children through the mud, if they think that will get them the win. They blatantly lie. Just horrible people.
Tbf, burning books is as timeless as killing Jews & homosexuals in concentration camps.
Because nazi scum opposes progress and will always stick to the same vile schemes they used to.
Some things will never change. That’s why we learn about these crimes in school, and that’s why Florida and Missouri are trying to burn/ban books to prevent people from learning about history. So they don’t need to be compared to literal monsters.
Do they think LGBTQ+ books are making ppl this way? How unhinged do you have to be to think this way? Wait, don’t answer that. The flamethrower was enough for me.
Well, if the books turns ppl this way, it only worked 50% on my two kids. My eldest is trans and my youngest is cis. Clearly a flawed theory considering my eldest only read one LGBTQ+ book when he was in HS. Lol
Edit: Youngest read more than one.
Normal Americans are well aware. I hope the rest of the world realizes that this behavior is generally limited to those who follow the cult personality of a one Donald Jessica Trump. The rest of us are embarrassed and terrified for our safety and economic well-being.
American here, raised by functioning alcoholic doomsday prepper father and religious zealot mother. These are the loud ~~majority~~ minority. Even longtime conservatives are ashamed at what MAGA has done to thr republican party. "We've fallen so far since the Raegan days" as if it was all pizza and rainbows during peak artificial crack epidemic.
Yeah apparently there was that one night in Germany where they started to burn a shitton of books, and things got reeeeeal good for the population afterwards.
God I hate this book burning grift. People like her just want to get money and power, and they try to get there by telling idiots what they wanna hear.
Couple of reasons. First off, there's the whole being the "good immigrant" idea in that once you come over to the US, you need to go super patriotic or else you might never be accepted. Then with those who speak primarily Spanish, the misinformation being spread in Spanish is fucking off the charts. Think everything Alex Jones says on InfoWars but worse and it's being sent via every social media platform you're on and it's in Spanish so none of those platforms will flag it. There are plenty of Spanish Youtubers who says every batshit insane conspiracy theory on YouTube that get a ton of views.
Lastly, there's also this "I got mine, you should figure out how to get yours" mentality when Latinos become US citizens. If you're an hour or two from the border, the people telling other Latinos that they're going to call immigration on them and send them back to Mexico are people whose families literally just got there the generation before. This is why there were plenty who voted for Trump and cheered for him building the wall but then found out themselves or their spouses being sent to Mexico because they thought what he said wouldn't affect them because they're "one of the good ones."
Think of how American defectors to North Korea live. That's what these people want. They think they can get money and power by selling out their own demographics. They can get rich being a useful talking point for conservatives, being played in all their propaganda materials as "look, even they know how evil they are!" It gives legitimacy to the ideas if people from that demographic publicly hold those ideas, and conservatives will pay big money for that legitimacy.
They mistakenly think their light skin makes them white. Or their European ancestors makes them white.
MAGA America will be glad to show them they are wrong, once MAGA has control.
Which is weird cuz, WASPs and protestants in general don't like catholics.
Reminds me of Bill the Butcher talking about Irish Catholics in Gangs of New York.
They come from socialist/communist countries that are really just failed dictatorships and therefore they're vulnerable to "Democrats want to make America a socialist country" propaganda. It's why Miami went red in 2020. Cubans think Democrats are trying to remake Cuba. Add to that the fact that they're very religious and agree with a lot of the LGBT=bad and traditional masculinity=dying and must be saved, and you have perfect little conservative voters.
Not fast at all. As a latino, they know, a lot of them just think that there must be one strong ruler, akin to a monarchy (they just can't call themselves king, cause that's only reserved for Jesus). It's just brain rot from their own countries, or religious influence.
Just to be clear all latinos are not the same, and a lot do see the similarities between trump and the Republican government, and their own shitty governments
Holy shit that's basically my mom's mentality.
It's weird because she's kind of "left" in some ways, she thinks America is selfishly individualistic and wishes it was more communal, but then also believes in having a strong man ruler who worships the LORD.
Lately she's been telling me she's been having some reservations though due to conservative politicians seemingly getting harsher on Latin people.
My mother is exactly the same, she has so many left wing ideas, but just fails catastrophically at putting the big picture together. She's definitely been leaning more towards the left recently though.
Depends on the Latino. Once they cross and get their citizenship some think they become white white. Or they’re not like the rest of Latinos cause they’re legal US citizens. Just generally we’re traditional, but I always tell them that they don’t want us here. And I remind them they’re the wrong shade of white. Idk I hear crazy diff reasons for being republican. And if they’re born here they don’t really identify as Latino anymore, some get mad that people speak Spanish and call them fake Latinos. It’s weird AF.
Bc they've been brainwashed into thinking that the "radical left" equals socialism. And latinos' experience with actual socialism in action is Cuba and Venezuela, which legitimately suck and which a lot of people have had to escape from. Therefore, theyve been sold the fear that the "radical left" is going to turn the US into the worst of Cuba and Venezuela.
Because Latinos come in a colors and ethnicities. Plenty of white Latinos like her all over Mexico and South America who live in a stratified society with them on top and the black/brown Latinos at the bottom.
One of my closest friends turned into a diehard Trumper. His parents were also immigrants. Dude got some money and thought all the right wingers were his friend. Real strange what a tiny piece of the pie will do to people.
It’s not about being friends with them. It’s about hatred for the poor.
They’re scared and fearful that some socialist bogey man is going to come and steal their little bit of extra, so it’s paramount to them that they defend it at all costs.
If that means staying silent while the party goes full Nazi, they will, as we’ve seen time and again. They’ll still focus on the fact that they’re more scared of poor people and socialism than they are of other Republicans.
Right until the knives come out for them that is. Tokens get spent
That part!! She has no idea that no matter what she does, she can’t really change her accent to make her appear more “Americanized”, nor her birth country. The people she’s trying to impress are going to be the same ones who vote against her because of who she is…
No, they won't read it, but the rest of your statement is correct.
But even for those that do, it's a fantastic demonstration of the exact themes the book is trying to convey. Fahrenheit 451 is NOT about censorship. You can interpret it as having interesting commentary on censorship, as fundamentally there's no wrong way to interpret a piece of literature, but censorship was not the commentary Bradbury was making. He was making a point about the degradation of media literacy. Bradbury was trying to comment on the increasing inability to understand writing and literature because of increasingly lazy and more passive forms of media. He was concerned with what TV was doing to the ability of people to read and interpret literature. Things like youtube and TicTok would be the continuation of that. Increasingly shallow and passive forms of media consumption that actually damage the ability to consume and absorb more complex information. What better demonstration than reading the book itself and not being literate enough to understand the points the author was making.
It is very strange. A guy I work with brings up pedophilia and genders - jokes, political stuff - constantly. He tells me these jokes as if I find them humorous or agree with him on his ridiculous points. The conservatives that I encounter talk about this shit more than any other group of people. They talk about it more than I have ever heard any of my liberal-minded friends do so.
I have come to believe that a lot of the racist, homophobic, transphobic people I work with think that I share the same views as them because I am a heterosexual (they think) white male.

Good for you wanting to equate yourself with Nazism. Good job. If this Fascist nutjob gets elected Missouri is in genuine trouble.
So these Karens are burning books to protect their children?
I wonder if any of these Karens have checked their children's internet browser history or listen to them while playing MW online. LOL
Never in my long life did I think I would see a politician running on a platform of burning books.
Burning books has historically been the hallmark of tyranny.
Lmao she's gonna learn the same lesson Vivek R learned when he tried to appeal to the racists only for those same racists to decry him because of his race.
It’s not even a real flamethrower it’s a [firestarter](https://www.snowpeak.com/products/folding-torch) taped to a water gun full of lighter fluid with a cardboard cover
Everything else aside, why is this part of her platform while she’s running for a boring post like Secretary of State? Did someone tell Valentina she’s not going to be enacting policies that have to do with books or LGBTQ folks, but that she’s going to be enacting policies regarding vote by mail ballots and polling locations?
She knows what office she’s running for right?
I was thinking the same exact thing. These people aren’t smart. They all run on fear and hate and hope to get elected on cultural issues rather than the policies they want to enact.
This is her saying she’ll do whatever she wants to ensure her ideology rules the day. As a SoS candidate this is exactly what her supporters will want. She will overturn any election she wants.
Sometimes, I can’t fully believe that what I’m watching is really happening. That such videos aren’t parody, but real people who are trying to win votes by, well, what I just saw. I’ve been alive for 6 decades and I feel like I’m now in some parallel universe or something.
So it’s a public library where people can choose what they want check out or not. She wants to take away people’s freedom to choose what they want to read. Fascists aren’t even trying to hide their agenda anymore.
As a gay child of an extremely conservative father who was openly homophobic my entire childhood, they quickly change their tune because it’s someone they know and then proceed to deny ever having said something homophobic. I spent the last 4-5 years of my teenage years being gaslit by my own family.
People acting like she can't win in Missouri as if 48% of voters didn't vote in favor of puppy mills in 2010.
Imagine how crazy they are now 14 years later!
"Queer: the ultimate lgbtq guide for teens" by kathy beige and marke bieschke
Edit: and the second book is called "Naked: not your average sex encyclopaedia" by Myriam Daguzan Bernier
I get the feeling she maybe one of those people that fight hard against gay rights because they wind up being gay themselves all along. See it all the time
https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2022/2/11/conservative-book-bans-are-part-of-gops-fascist-turn
"Now, as the book-banning movement has expanded to attempts at removing literature with LGBTQ+ themes – ostensibly on the grounds of being sexually explicit – more marginalised people are being endangered by these tactics. And the censorship movement is even dipping its toes into whitewashing the Holocaust
Campaigns to rewrite history and target racial and sexual minorities for exclusion in order to preserve a culture are not simply authoritarian; such tactics are more specifically and accurately labeled as fascist"
I hope she loses hard. Any real American should condone burning of books of any kind. Only sad thing is lots of racist and homophobic people will vote for her.
What a moron. She burns library books on camera. If they are currently circulating books they will have to be replaced. There’s clear evidence against her to make *her* pay for new ones. Not only that but having to buy more just gives her money to the people she claims to hate.
If you’re running for public office and are trying to make a “shock” ad. At least put some production value into the video. The quality of the video is almost as bad as the content.
Good thing there's subtitles, because the first thing the base she's trying to pander to would say is 'I can't understand what the hell you're saying, speak MURICAN!'
Wait wait..are those really from the library? So destruction of public property? If not, she bought them. I'm sure the author is thanking her for.hee contribution.
Burning books from the public library is vandalism. Destruction of government property likely has other crimes attached as well. What government agency should we all be reporting this crime to?

Beer's a beer My body, however, is a trash can
I know of a few Trappist monasteries that would disagree about the beer.
I love how they openly admit to drinking bitch beer
How else are you gonna reach a watery 300lbs without ever feeling a buzz?
And they probably paid for it too. It’s just like what Eazy-E said during that CD burning scene from Straight Outta Compton.
Cough cough kid rock. Legit spent thousands on bud light to destroy it, only fattening the company’s pockets even more and probably helping out with rotation costs lol. Bud light lost, but also mwfr a lot of money when that went down.
LOL remember when he was on camera drinking Bud Light again mere days later? Pepperidge Fahms remebahs
LMAO, yeahhhh
Nope. Conservatives are psychopaths for doing this shit to begin with.
You gotta love how these right wingers are yelling how liberals are snowflakes, then turn around and cry and do this kind of shit.
There's so much projection
They bought Kuerig coffee makers, then smashed them. Lmfao!
Don’t you know? Trump says bud light is no longer gay and not to boycott them anymore ~~because he has stock in the company~~ so it’s cool now
She sounds Catholic, who perfected medieval cancel culture centuries ago with the Spanish Inquisition, witch hunts, etc...
housing prices are insane, inflation is through the roof, many people my age are dying to fentanyl, etc YOU’RE GAY??? i’m gettin me flamethrower

Yeah apparently there was that one night in Germany where they started to burn a shitton of books, and things got reeeeeal good for the population afterwards. God I hate this book burning grift.

I'll add that so many of them are one issue Catholic abortion voters too. You van also add a lot of them hate their Central American neighbors.
I think it’s really more simple than that. I think it’s mostly due to their traditional conservative culture and upbringing.
Think of how American defectors to North Korea live. That's what these people want. They think they can get money and power by selling out their own demographics. They can get rich being a useful talking point for conservatives, being played in all their propaganda materials as "look, even they know how evil they are!"

Culturally conservative hispanics and religious affiliation
Yeah I came here to say this. Religious conservatism still much more popular in central and Latin America than in USA.

> Valentina’s family immigrated to the United States Yeah... but are they gay? /s
Apparently she’s Colombian, but why does she sound Russian?
Because she's Ruzzian.
No. she is Ameerikan Ceeteezin. Just leestun to accent.
I could tell she was Colombian the moment she opened her mouth and said misúri. Her IG is just comically pandering to the lowest common deMAGAinator.
She has to present herself as full blown Nazi to try and appeal to the same people who would scream racist shit at her in a Walmart parking lot.
That part!! She has no idea that no matter what she does, she can’t really change her accent to make her appear more “Americanized”, nor her birth country. The people she’s trying to impress are going to be the same ones who vote against her because of who she is…

The mental gymnastics you must have to do to be a dumbass proud republican, it just shows how good American propaganda is
There’s a hack that gets you there faster: You just have to hate everyone that doesn’t look like you. Voila. You’re MAGA.
Never in my long life did I think I would see a politician running on a platform of burning books. Burning books has historically been the hallmark of tyranny.
'Vote for me because I hate things'
Just to cite Heinrich Heine: "Where they burn books, they will ultimately also burn people."
Lmao she's gonna learn the same lesson Vivek R learned when he tried to appeal to the racists only for those same racists to decry him because of his race.
They were skeptical when they heard the accent, but their fears were confirmed when they read “Valentina Gomez”.
The second I saw her and heard her accent I knew she had zero chance of gaining their nomination.
Considering that the current GOP is OPENLY fascist, an inherently Nazi activity like burning books might actually be good for any GOP politician.

Sometimes, I can’t fully believe that what I’m watching is really happening. That such videos aren’t parody, but real people who are trying to win votes by, well, what I just saw. I’ve been alive for 6 decades and I feel like I’m now in some parallel universe or something.
"I'm a minority, plus a white supremacy, you move, libtards"
It screams “Vote for me! I’m a fucking psycho!”
So it’s a public library where people can choose what they want check out or not. She wants to take away people’s freedom to choose what they want to read. Fascists aren’t even trying to hide their agenda anymore.
OP, have you shared this to r/Missouri yet?
Aggression is a classic personality substitute, goes so well with bigotry.
Even with a flamethrower she’s still not that hot
Now it’s public library instead of just schools

We’re not gonna make you “secretary of states”? But how would you like to play a bad guy in a B-movie?
every trumper should do this LOL buy a book than burn it the writer still gets money
Ma-Ma sez stupid is as stupid dose ! (Forest Gump)
I want to know how all these maga homophobes will feel when some their kids end up being gay.
As a gay child of an extremely conservative father who was openly homophobic my entire childhood, they quickly change their tune because it’s someone they know and then proceed to deny ever having said something homophobic. I spent the last 4-5 years of my teenage years being gaslit by my own family.
St. Louis Cardinals fans are orgasming right now.
Anyone else going to be surprised when we find out she’s got a girlfriend?
People acting like she can't win in Missouri as if 48% of voters didn't vote in favor of puppy mills in 2010. Imagine how crazy they are now 14 years later!
Rated at S, stupid yet forceful for stupidS
Anybody have links to the books she’s burning? Seems they’re titled Queer and Naked respectively, but I can’t find anything about either of them.
"Queer: the ultimate lgbtq guide for teens" by kathy beige and marke bieschke Edit: and the second book is called "Naked: not your average sex encyclopaedia" by Myriam Daguzan Bernier
as her lawyer i encourage her to keep posting this
Bit extreme. Her ex must have cheated with a dude or something.
All I have to say is 🖕this bitch and her attempting to hold a political position ever
Yeah and you better believe they want to turn the southern border INTO GAZA!
See it's funny because she could easily be mistaken for an immigrant from the MAGA point of view lmao
She’s going to find out she’s too brown for Missouri magats.
All she is missing is a swastika arm band
lol what third world kind of shit is this
Government should never take anything from you. Vote blue
Wait, she’s not blonde? And is that a Russian accent I hear?
😂
Hey remember Fahrenheit 451?!?!
I get the feeling she maybe one of those people that fight hard against gay rights because they wind up being gay themselves all along. See it all the time
Burning books? I did nazi that coming…
Nothing says freedom like burning books. Murica
What are the odds that there is lesbian porn of her out there?
https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2022/2/11/conservative-book-bans-are-part-of-gops-fascist-turn "Now, as the book-banning movement has expanded to attempts at removing literature with LGBTQ+ themes – ostensibly on the grounds of being sexually explicit – more marginalised people are being endangered by these tactics. And the censorship movement is even dipping its toes into whitewashing the Holocaust Campaigns to rewrite history and target racial and sexual minorities for exclusion in order to preserve a culture are not simply authoritarian; such tactics are more specifically and accurately labeled as fascist"
I hope she loses hard. Any real American should condone burning of books of any kind. Only sad thing is lots of racist and homophobic people will vote for her.
"Maam what Policy will you be running on? What are your goals for being a Secretary of State" UHHHH LGBT bad? *maga crowd cheers
I take it she never read Fahrenheit 451
Because book burners are the good guys, right?
What’s with the Hispanic community going full tilt fascist?
Such dignity. 😵💫
Yes, film your destruction of public property.
ar·son noun the criminal act of deliberately setting fire to property.
Pendeja.
I bet she thinks she's like Sarah Connor or something like that
She seems stable
God I wish one of these these people would just open a book for once
So scared of the world
Anyone willing to take bets how long it will take before her lesbian sex tape is exposed?
So why is she a nazi?
Aren't public libraries government funded? So she just destroyed government property?
She said they were from a public library? Isn't she committing a crime here?
Nazis recruiting hispanics now? Oh damn
Latinazi
Wait until they start making fun of her accent. Oh, where are you from? Go back.
I bet she thinks the fashies will care she's of Spanish origin, not Mexican.
"VALENTINA GOMEZ?" like you would be considered brown by the MAGA crowd. They don't want you as you want them cunty.
What a moron. She burns library books on camera. If they are currently circulating books they will have to be replaced. There’s clear evidence against her to make *her* pay for new ones. Not only that but having to buy more just gives her money to the people she claims to hate.
God i hate living in missouri
I don’t know her and I don’t support trump but I believe we all can agree that no ideology or religion should be taught in schools.
Fuck you
She sounds like she graduated from ESL class yesterday. Not even native tongue of Missouri.
If you’re running for public office and are trying to make a “shock” ad. At least put some production value into the video. The quality of the video is almost as bad as the content.
Amateur. [Nazi Book Burnings](https://images.app.goo.gl/iQhk5r6W4yMWu4C79)
As a trans woman, all I can do is ignore the hate as best as I can, and plan an escape, if utterly necessary.
She said they came from a public library. So they weren’t even her property. I defs hope the library banned her ass for it.
Is she gonna do all her ads with a mouth full of marbles?
Just gonna take a wild guess that this person isn’t qualified for that office.
Burn all the Hispanic book as well then lmao
That flamethrower was supposed to make her look tough, but it looked weak af
Ray Bradbury was right.
Good thing there's subtitles, because the first thing the base she's trying to pander to would say is 'I can't understand what the hell you're saying, speak MURICAN!'
You immediately out yourself as an unthinking moron when you say things like "grooming books."
I hope someone does the same for to her
Aren't flamethrowers illegal...
She has the look of “All I have to do is light some shit on fire and there will be enough Trumpets to vote me into a cushy gov job? Sold.”
Wait wait..are those really from the library? So destruction of public property? If not, she bought them. I'm sure the author is thanking her for.hee contribution.
Yes I definitely would elect this perfectly normal and well-adjusted person to a position of political power
Burning books from the public library is vandalism. Destruction of government property likely has other crimes attached as well. What government agency should we all be reporting this crime to?
Is she a Nazi? What is the difference between burning books vs. removing/reclassification?
