Why does she still get attention?

She speedran meaningfully damaging an already damaged economy when given power in days. Her ideas demonstrably lack merit.

Unless her following is literally just people waiting for her to say something else stupid

Mostly because she says stuff like this, and it gets attention.

It is pretty funny. Outside of the current global climate, it's pretty funny.

Probably because she is the second third* ever female UK Prime Minister.

That alone means her (incredibly stupid) comments have public interest.

*I have been reminded again that I can't count (fair).

She’s the third female PM, Margaret Thatcher was first and Theresa May second.

I'd like to say that I didn't count Thatcher as a human, but the truth is i just totally forgot Theresa May.

Corrected, cheers.

I'm not sure she was even human. Might have been an MI5 project to create a lifelike android to infiltrate and take over Parliament.

Holy shit, and here I thought organized trans crime conspiracies were exclusively American Republican. Why does everything stupid or regressive that comes out of the USA get parroted over here.

quick note, if anyone wants kitkats at a super low price hmu

Hold on, ensure Nestle loses money, and you’d fund trans people? Fucking sign me up! This is a fantastic idea! We need an underground trans mafia that steals chocolate to resell.

Where do you think America got their stupid people from? Did you think Europe stopped making them after they sent them here?

Looks like it's already in full swing. Just in case you're looking... I have a very reputable kitkat source for the next few weeks...

Wait it's not real? It got me. The world is really in a state if I can read this and think it's real. I'd never heard of this woman but the shit that some people say made this just on the edge of believability. I feel like in 2000s or the 90s people weren't so stupid.

Sorry it was me, I spilled my breakfast on the cat and exclaimed "bloody underground trans mafia strikes again"

Honestly, that would be a hilarious trade. A transgender mafia trading chocolate for estrogen.

15

Are you kidding me? Shot day is when I crave chocolate the most, I'm not giving that chocolate away.

mad-libs headline?

also kudos to truss on having no shame and still showing her face to humans

That sounds... awesome! Like, I want this to be true, underground transgender mafia, hell yeah!!

No one knew what the fuck you stood for. Political fucking mist - no substance, no weight. You've got all the charm of a rotting teddy bear by a graveside.

So now, please, just fuck off back to your hole you headless frump, and prepare for your column in Grazia."

She's got a good narrative name, and she could have rode the decaying lettuce meme. She's otherwise awful, as a politician. And I'm from the u.s.

Imagine for a second that you were rewarded for spouting insane bullshit.

Why she does it isn't the question. The question is why does it work. The people who read this are definitely eating paint chips.

Yeah I know, this was supposed to be satirical way of me acting as if it is true but me trying to cover up all connections.
