Are MAGA cultists suffering from a mental health disorder? Rick and Tim discuss Donald H. Christ (our criminal ex-president) and his big announcement of running for president again. The question is, did Donald make his announcement too soon? The damage Donald Trump has caused, and his platform of hate are returning in the next election cycle. Who coined the term “Make America Great Again?” Hint: it wasn’t Donald Trump. Were the Obama years as bad as conservatives say they were? Has our country been pulled so far to the extreme right that moderates are now looking like the extreme left? The absurdity of Ron DeSantis suggesting he was sent by God to be a fighter is talked about and deservedly laughed at. Tim admonishes Rick for objectifying people and that is an example of what America has become today. Rick is unapologetic and disagrees and says it’s not wrong to objectify people who are harming people’s lives in a profound way. For example. Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump. Rick doesn’t think they deserve any respect. Tim concedes that if done for the purpose of comedy, then it’s okay, as long as it’s not taking away from the importance of the topic. The use of the N-Word is heavily discussed as to why Rick and Tim despise its use. Tim wants a culture shift to happen in our country where our politicians work for us and not fight for us in Washington and gave his classroom’s fifth-period lunch as an example. Rick confesses he is suffering from anxiety because of FOMO: Fear Of Missing Out and Tim offers an intervention. The subject of Elon Musk is discussed with what he has done to Twitter along with Joe Rogan making an ass out of himself in regard to his claims about Oregon and conspiracy theories. Rick shares what it is like to return to college as a middle-aged man getting his bachelor’s degree and Tim talks about what it’s like as a teacher losing students to gun warfare. In this week’s “Let’s Trigger Rictor” segment, Tim asks Rick about his thoughts on animal cruelty. Does Tim succeed in getting Rick set off? The subject delves into Portland State University’s lack of ethical conduct in preparing students for graphic content in films teachers present in class. An incident made Rick take an issue all the way to the Dean of Students in regard to the African film, Touki Bouki (1973), for which the class was assigned to watch without being given a disclaimer for its graphic and disturbing imagery. Because of that, Rick shares a story of animal cruelty that he, unfortunately, witnessed as a seven-year-old boy which has traumatized his entire life. The impact of social media also reinforces trauma with graphic videos being blindly shared on newsfeeds. Clips include The Daily Show with Jordan Klepper interviewing uneducated brain-dead MAGA cultists, Joe Rogan’s podcast, various MAGA TikTokkers and MAGA politicians, CNN’s interview with Oprah Winfrey and the use of the n-word, and most importantly a clip of the late Dr. Maya Angelou educating us on the power of words.
