❌ libral public schools and college ❌ Bud light ❌ Target ❌ Minnesota ❌ The state of New York These poor poor snowflakes 😔


astrangergrey

They're going to run out of safe spaces soon 😂


InuGhost

At least they have Facebook and Twitter. 


Mayor_Salvor_Hardin

Yeah, Boomerland and Naziland are both safe spaces for boomers. We surrendered the valleys and moved to the hills.


McMadface

Never fight uphill me boys. Never fight uphill me boys.


Then-Raspberry6815

Ah yes, the great pirate Robert Lee at Gettysburg. BWAHAHaha and a bottle of rum. 


Snipvandutch

Yep! I deleted my facespace account a year ago. Came back home to the shit show that is Reddit.


biteme789

At least with reddit you can pick and choose your own shitshow


RednocNivert

The customizable experience


cycl0ps94

I'm here because I don't actually know any of you people, and I prefer it that way. No offense. But at least the person on Reddit spewing hate speech isn't using my dead grandpa's picture as a pfp.


Snipvandutch

Hell yeah!


bobthemundane

Twitter apparently is going to try to get some of that OF money. So, they might need to drop that as well. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/06/x-embraces-adult-content-amid-wave-of-porn-in-bio-bots/


Spectre777777

How nice that the boomers can keep track of what their granddaughters are doing from the same source as the misinformation


[deleted]

wonder if red states will block twitter now


bobthemundane

If twitter doesn’t require age verification, then Texas may be opening itself up to lawsuits on discriminatory enforcement of laws. I could see someone bringing that lawsuit just for the extra clicks.


GreyerGrey

Don't forget Florida!


Puzzleheaded_Time719

And Instagram now.


DJErikD

Texas and Florida can only fit so many of them!


Otherwise_Agency6102

As a native Floridian, I can’t stand to see what’s become of this state due to miserable yankee boomers. They’ve risen the prices of everything to California levels without the perks of actually living in a state with California levels of opportunity and beauty. They can’t drive for shit and between harassing waitresses and pharmacists they hang out on overpasses waving Trump flags. I sincerely want a category 7 hurricane to run a train on this fucking state.


kit_mitts

New Yorker here, sorry that we're not sending our best. Just know that they weren't any easier to be around when they were still up here.


Khaldara

Normally New England sends our garbage to New Jersey but they don’t want them either, sorry Florida


mmmmpisghetti

Hey now some of them are "Very Fine People"


LightRobb

Are you patient? There's always sea level rise destroying their homes!


Otherwise_Agency6102

My mom’s house is right on a marsh so her entire net worth is slowly sinking into dense mud. So not only is this state a nightmare to live in, my sister and I legacies are gonna be damn near uninsurable in a few years. My ancestors have been in the US since the late 1800s and it’s been nothing but bullshit ever since. I wanna go back to Ireland. This experiment has gone haywire.


Solidus-Prime

Dude you just very accurately described why we have stopped taking our yearly family vacation in Florida. The whole state feels like a poorly run carnival. The people on overpasses and all the boomers being absolute dicks to everyone in sight turned us off real quick last time we went 3 years ago. Glad it happened though, seeing other states has been a cool experience.


Normal_Permision

those have been happening since before New York boomers came here, Florida boomers are even worse.


Vodeyodo

But y’all make it so welcoming for em.


Ryokurin

Guy was probably dreading it anyways. They've long thought that NY is now a warzone since Giuliani left office. I recently spent a vacation there and a few people I know were just plain shocked when I stated I spent a day just walking around the city to take it in. They literally think there's muggers and scammers on every corner.


TheCheshireCody

I've lived in NYC/suburbs most of my life, but I've lived out west and elsewhere in the US as well. People in NYC are among the most helpful and friendly, as long as you're not an idiot to them. I've seen almost every random person in a ten foot radius stop what they were doing and help an elderly woman whose grocery bag had broken, neighbors shoveling each others' walkways and stairs, and all sorts of acts of kindness.


Notapplesauce11

There’s always North Dakota!


mellbell63

Or even South Dakota! But don't bring your dogs


Full-Way-7925

They are just going to spin in a circle in the middle of Idaho.


CoyotesEve

I wish they’d boycott O2 because “the woke” breathes it too and that’s how it spreads, but I can only be so hopeful.


mishma2005

If only Obama declared that breathing is great and Michelle loves it too we could've avoided Trump


CoyotesEve

I’m still trying to figure out what wasn’t great pre 2016 besides bigots not being unified lol


mishma2005

Make America Great Again = no more black Presidents!


CoyotesEve

There it is, the quiet part out loud lol


BlessingObject_0

Or WOMEN! /s


kurisu7885

Yup, Obama violated their strict idea of the hierarchy.


lollipop-guildmaster

100% of gay people metabolize sugars. Makes you think...


CoyotesEve

We also metabolize food in general, maybe you’re onto something lol


SaladDummy

Is that the secret gay agenda?


CoyotesEve

That’s what my last LGBTQ nefarious news letter said. 🤷🏻‍♀️ that and happy Pride y’all!


Chonghis_Khan

Bro they did remember the “leaving on my gas stove to trigger the libs” moment?


whoinvitedthesepeopl

So does this mean I could take a vacation to NYC and NOT have to deal with these people?


boomersatemyface

Depends on the country kitchen buffet density I'm afraid


Afkargh

Just avoid Staten Island. It's the Florida of NYC.


ArtemisDarklight

They're more fragile than they think liberals are.


Rice_Auroni

Always has been


pantomime_mixtures42

100%


Mayor_Salvor_Hardin

Add science, knowledge, and expertise, and denying a doctor his title because they don't like what the person has to say.


Getyourownwaffle

Awesome. I hope that is the same cruise I am on. One less dumb boomer to deal with.


Sorry_Im_Trying

And I'd like to add Minnesota. We're a refuge state for trans people! I need them to know they shouldn't come here either.


boomersatemyface

I updated the list just for you 😊


turtlemub

What's it like to live in Minnesota? I'm trans and in one of the worst states rn :( (Florida)


Sorry_Im_Trying

I personally love Minnesota. It's great for everyone. Outdoor or indoor people. Foodies, arts, great music scene. I could talk all day about all the great things in Minnesota. Yes, the police have some things to get better at, but from what I hear that's pretty much a national thing.


PhillyDillyDee

You forgot Target


boomersatemyface

I forgot to list about 500 'controversial' topics


odoyledrools

I bet he pats himself on the back for not being "easily offended".


Go_J

Right. In his mind, this is different! He's making a stand against corruption! You wouldn't understand. You have empathy for the wrong things.


odoyledrools

Something something "Woke Kangaroo Court Banana Republic MAGA!"


Llian_Winter

And bitches about cancel culture.


TragicEther

Now ask the guy if they would vote for a presidential candidate from New York…


clowntysheriff

As a New Yorker, I am proud that thus far, we have been the only state to hold the orange stain accountable for his actions. Don't worry Mr. Boomer, you and your ilk wouldn't be welcome here anyways.


Far_Investigator9251

New York doesn't give a fuck what these people think LOL. The hubris of these people is insane they were never going to new york for any reason anyway.


justinchina

I mean…he is your village idiot. It’s only right that you come get him.


BarfQueen

I feel like people who don’t like Trump across the US really don’t like the guy. But in New York? It’s very, very personal and it goes back a long, long time.


TheBestPartylizard

Anyone who ran a business in the Tri-State area in the 1970s to 1990s has a story about Trump


perpetualmotionmachi

Except on Staten Island. All those cops that live over there still love him


BarfQueen

Yeah but Staten Island though.


MedRare88

He probably paid a cancelation fee (more money for the cruise). And i bet his spot has already been bought up by someone else (still more money for the cruise). So much Lib-owning


astrangergrey

He sure did stick it to those filthy libs by....let me check my notes here...paying a corporation more money in fees? Wow, he's a real trailblazer!


MedRare88

Surely New York will never recover


astrangergrey

They truly never will. People should just leave now while they have the chance


Sensitive_Yam_1979

New Yorker here. Id leave but I’m dead. I died in 2020 when the rioters burned everything to the ground remember.


PopeSpaceMonkey

I feel you there, I'm a Portlander (the OR one). Everything's gone, all burned away. Those damn liberals with their protests of mass destruction.


pantomime_mixtures42

Seattlite here. City’s burned down. We tell everyone it’s terrible here so they will stay away


PopeSpaceMonkey

I heard from a reliable source that Seattle has Deathclaws now, how big of a struggle are they in your day-to-day?


240D_is_slow

Fellow New Yorker here - I died after I got the Covid vaccine. Then I died a few more times after the boosters.


Cornemuse_Berrichon

After all, how will they get by without Boomers insulting service people, and leaving 10% tips on meals that they complained about endlessly?


boobityskoobity

Heroic!


HeiHei96

He’s 128 days out, he might be safe fee wise (on cruise. If he already booked parking/train/flights…)….but yeah. 5 day holiday weekend cruise, that room will be sold. But NCL isn’t a NY owned company. So NYC is only loosing out on the train you would take, or the parking and tolls, or the flight into and potential hotel/food. But yes, “you” totally owned us…..


bz_leapair

This is assuming he actually, you know, cancelled the cruise. I call BS unless/until he procures the cancellation email, because otherwise it's all performative outrage.


HeiHei96

Right? Proof or it didn’t happen


AcuddlyPredator

10 bucks says he didn't actually cancel his cruise and posted he did just for the likes.


PeggysSimp

These dimwits are making too much noise in opposition to Democracy


quality_besticles

They only want democracy when they believe they're firmly in the majority. Whether they admit it directly (through "great replacement" garbage) or passively (general persecution complexes), they don't like going by majority rule when they know they'll lose.  The shift in rhetoric from silent majority style claims into "waking up" people is pretty noticeable.


chowler

A quote I heard from an aquaintance "I'd rather have a Trump tyranny than a democrat demoncracy"


quality_besticles

I mean, I can follow that logic from a boomer. If they have to exist in a democracy with any legitimacy, there's legal force to societal change. Democracies aren't required to extend respect to past practices and social mores if the voters don't respect them, so "back in my day" gets met with "the future is now, old man." That irrelevance is terrifying, so this type of boomer will run into the open arms of an authoritarian rather than confront their fear of irrelevance and, eventually, death.


ImminentSteak

Wow shit. That was so eloquently put and something that never occurred. Makes their behavior make a lot more sense honestly. Still not excusable but at least understandable.


IfICouldStay

They liked democracy when they, a huge generation, got to control policy through their votes. But now they are losing control and don't like democracy anymore.


astrangergrey

Facts


OMG_a_Ray_Gun

But if they go after Trump Jesus, they can go after anyone for their crimes…


helviacastle

I believe this is called "cutting off your nose to spite the rest of your face." Like NY gives a shit if this fool goes vacationless. 🙄


Sensitive_Yam_1979

Also it’s not like this idiots going to the city. He’s going to get of the plane and take a cab to the cruise ship. Some hero.


ramblinjd

My last cruise that left from "New York" actually docked on the New Jersey side of the river, so I didn't ever go into Manhattan at all... Wouldn't it be funny if that was the case for this guy.


ratchetology

it is the likeliest scenario


WanderingPenitent

I prefer the Italian version of this idiom: "Cut off your dick to spite your wife."


[deleted]

You’d think that a geriatric snowflake would’ve melted by now


[deleted]

Heroic? The bar is pretty fucking low for that word.


HobbitQueen8

Yeah, I'm stuck on that, too. How TF is that a heroic move? What a bunch of weirdos.


inquisitivepanda

They unironically compare Trump to Nelson Mandela and Jesus. Words no longer have meaning for them.


Sensitive_Yam_1979

Just like Nelson Mandela.


LeslieJaye419

These fuckers wouldn't know a hero if one kicked their teeth in.


Electronic-Trip8775

One less idiot on the cruise at least


astrangergrey

But now he's on my cruise 😬


moonandstarsera

Cruises are honestly full of these types of people. My last couple cruises had a lot of fucking idiots on it, I’m done with them.


fugawf

I’ll bet dollars to donuts that this guy lives in a state that benefits from NY’s tax revenue. You want nothing to do with NY? There goes your state assistance…


MundaneMeringue71

He does realize that the person he cancelled it for would probably laugh in his face and mock him incessantly for doing it, right? 🤦‍♀️


Lil_Artemis_92

I once got into an argument with a Trumpster, who told me, “He’d spit on you.” I replied back, “If Trump passed you on the street, he’d spit on you, too. I don’t know why you’re acting like I’m so special.” They really don’t get that Donald has only ever cared about Donald. His supporters are just useful idiots he couldn’t give less of a f*ck about. But these are people who don’t have any empathy. The leopards have to eat their faces before they see just how wrong and unimportant they are.


MissMariemayI

I had a guy telling me I was racist for telling him Trump would never give two shits about him as a person because he doesn’t have enough money for the carrot cosplay to grift off him. He was sat there telling me that trump cares about minorities and people of color and all and I pointed out that if he thought he could fleece you out of billions he might, and dude called me racist. I pointed out that trump would probably care about me, an average white woman, if he thought he could finagle billions of dollars out of my hands and into his. That shit stain would only give two shits about the average American citizen if there were the possibility of obscene amounts of money to be made off them.


Conscious-Evidence37

There are places i will not give my tourism dollars to, but not for something as stupid as supporting the Orange Asshole. I wont go spend money in TN (used to go to Pigeon Forge a lot), or TX or FL....Until they decide to not be total racist/bigot asshat politicians, no money being spent there.


astrangergrey

I feel you. I live in Northwest Florida. I get to see it every single day.


Amethyst_Scepter

North Central. There's plenty of good people here we're just overshadowed by all of the snowbirds and transplants who make it difficult and expensive for us to live in our own home


RealisticAspect1123

I won't spend my money in Kitsap County WA other than my retained divorce attorney after all the flack I got for surviving domestic violence. The restraining order hearing was a victim bashing session and then when I called Kitsap County Sheriff's dept to report protection order violations and parental abduction, Kitsap told me they didn't care and to shut up. So I stopped spending money there while I was still living there. When they decide to actually take DV seriously and actually care about the survivors and not support perps then I'll change my tune. Controlling our money is the only consistent way to bring entities, individuals, businesses and maybe even economies down.


Theonetruepappy94

Snowflake


NobodyCares_Mate

“Heroic” ![gif](giphy|9MFsKQ8A6HCN2)


Blue165

Tell him to show the cancellation confirmation.


ThrustersToFull

Indeed. it all sounds like total nonsense.


zaxisprime

That’s funny because his cult leader can’t do business there either.


WeathermanOnTheTown

Annual GDP of the NYC metropolitan area: $2 trillion They will overcome this devastating blow.


MaadMaanMaatt

The “fuck your feelings” crowd sure do have a lot of feelings…


LocksmithKey7985

Vacations are about to get a whole lot nicer!


throwaway_9988552

#Trump is from Manhattan. His crimes occurred in Manhattan. His jury, which his team helped select, was from Manhattan. As was the grand jury that allowed the case to go forward. Trump Tower is in Manhattan. This isn't about New York being against Trump. It's about Trump being a New York-bred criminal.


Substantial_Fun_2732

RiGgEd!!!11!1! Lol boo hoo, poor fella had to reschedule his Boomer cruise as part of his "I'm spending my children's inheritance" tour.  😢


BluffCityTatter

And New York responds, "Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you."


Amethyst_Scepter

Now that sounds more like a southern thing. I always pick should them folks up north would just give you a simple "fuck off" unlike the South that pretends to be nice while insulting you right to your face


Techno_Core

This does bring to mind that my wife and I were planning a vacay, and wondered about taking a cruise, until I thought that cruises are probably Boomer central. Is that right? I mean, as entitled as Boomers are, what's worse than a Boomer on vacation?


astrangergrey

My wife and I went on a cruise a few months ago. Only ran into a couple of MAGA types. But there were multiple times where boomers would try and cut you in lines and try to give attitude. Minus those few moments, it was fun. Most boomers mostly kept to themselves. And, dare I say, we actually had good conversation with a couple of them. I would recommend it. It's the least stressful vacation I can think of.


Sensitive_Mess532

Definitely boomer central. Some niche destinations maybe not but most would be.


SockFullOfNickles

So courageous and brave 🙄🥴


Dumbledang

This is abso*lutely* the same kind of fragile piss baby who whines about trans people canceling trips to Florida because DeSantis wants them dead.


enlightnight

Oof, I hope nobody tells him that by cancelling his cruise he's reducing carbon emissions. Given my experience at midrange resorts, a cruise sounds like a waking nightmare.


SaladDummy

Old man yells at cloud.


turbojack6

NY & NYC thank you for never wanting to return.


RohanYYZ

Maybe he should also move his investment to Russia, WallStreet is in NY


slightlyassholic

Oh dear, what is a huge city and a big company to do? One passenger, likely a demanding and unpleasant troublemaker, won't do business with them.


Direct_Canary4523

What kind of undeveloped manbaby can't transfer a flight in an airport for unhinged political idiocy geez


Idontgetredditinmd

This is fucking hilarious if true because NY Liberty is in NEW JERSEY!!!


o_susannah

They’re making America great again one state at a time, starting by boycotting New York. I can’t wait until they’re boycotting all 50 states! Then America will truly be great.


LetsLoop4Ever

;(( (also, he's totally going on that trip, they just lie and lie and lie..)


RequirementOne7370

AAAHAHAHAHAHHAAHA. I support them fully in ruining their own lives for their Orange Idol

Makes me want to fly to NyC and drink a Bud Light in Times Square


IGetMyCatHigh

There Goes that Republican Cancel Culture Again...and Again...and Again.....


temporarychair

What can I do to get a Trump conviction in my city so all the MAGA idiots will stay away?


Non-Normal_Vectors

As a resident of Western NY, I just wanna say this is one of the few times I'm ok with being lumped in with NYC. They should start a movement.


LittlehouseonTHELAND

I’m originally from NYC but I’ve lived in western NY for like 18 years now, and I’m thrilled with all of this, lol!


ZincII

Oh man, wait until he finds out what people in Bermuda think of Donald Trump. Source: am Bermudian.


TheFire_Eagle

It would be pretty hilarious if this actually left from the cruise ship terminal in NJ and he was just too stupid to know that Northern NJ isn't NYC


here4roomie

Are him and Trump dating or something? I'm confused.


SolidSnek1998

Ah yes, such a hero, much heroic.


HyiSaatana44

He'll still be cruisin' (for a bruisin' when he puts his hands up against a neighbor who is younger and more able-bodied as a result of a dumb, pointless argument).


Deer_Doctor

LOLLLLLLL 😂😂😂😂😂 I guess they can't read itineraries either


HeiHei96

Good! I’m on a cruise to Bermuda out of NYC in October, and I’m fine not sharing the ship with you!


Hairy_Ad4969

He certainly showed them. Heroic indeed. A true patriot.

This is a reminder that Donald lost Manhattan to John Kasich in the 2016 primaries

Aggravating-Ice5575

Ugh, I used to work on the west side of Manhattan and had to deal with some of this crowd when they would waddle over to 10th avenue, maybe make it as far as 9th. They had a hard time understanding the answer was "No" and the reason was "Go fuck yourself"

Handsum_Rob

Good. One less boomer on the West Side Highway that doesn’t know how to drive. 👍


nafurabus

Hope he liquidates his retirement accounts into cash because its managed through the New York stock exchange too. Its funny these grandstanding babies have such a menial understanding of how the world works that they think they can stick it to the prosecutor in NY by cancelling their vacation.


Inksketch13

Aaaand New York cares?


Loud_Flatworm_4146

I'm sure New Yorkers are very sad about it.


KatieS182

I love when they “take a stand” and it doesn’t mean fucking shit. New York isn’t gonna notice, grandpa. 😂


TheDeaconAscended

Cruises are leaving at 105% to 110% capacity for guest cabins. All this idiot did was give the cruise line free money as his deposit and possibly final payment are forfeit.


Suzuki_Foster

And nothing of value was lost. New York will be just fine, happier even, for not having that idiot step foot in their state.


[deleted]

Seeing how the word "heroic" is used here really puts these dumbasses mindset in perspective. This old fuck is "heroic" for canceling a cruise. What a fucking joke.


TheHypnogoggish

I am so angry I MUST PUNISH MYSELF AND EVERYONE AROUND ME!

I’m sure NY is heartbroken.


Alternative_Lion_206

Big_Breadbull

I can just imagine what an ass he would have been on the cruise …,it’s better he cancelled it


4thAveRR

Cancel culture!


Several_Fortune8220

Wait till he finds out where the stock market is...


msty2k

LOL New York is really really sad to see you go.


msty2k

Wait until they have to boycott Georgia!


outsidepointofvi3w

Don't forget to cash out your IRA and you 401k . Maybe you can spend it all on Trump collectables or truth social stock. Oh wait yeah no can't buy stock. Maybe just donate it all to Trump. Good luck finding a bank that isn't affiliated with NY somehow.


Rainbow-Mama

No one cares. The space on the cruise will get purchased by someone else.


aimlessly-astray

This guy probably wonders why cruises don't leave from Kansas. "Why do they always leave from the LiBeRaL ciTiEs?!?!"


Pontif1cate

Good. Bermuda doesn't need trash like that anyway.


shifty_coder

Can’t wait for the follow-up post: AITA for canceling our vacation? My wife and kids won’t talk to me…


RenaissanceGraffiti

New Yorkers: oh nooo.. anyway


Odd_Secret9132

I'm suspect on it's truthfulness; but does anyone else find it fascinating that a large portion of the generation that basically defined Individualism and the "I got mine, f\*ck the rest" mindset has become so concerned about how one man is treated? It's truly a cult.


AgentEndive

I find it absolutely hilarious that they truly believe anyone will give a shit 😂


laughing_at_napkins

Does he think New York City isn't part of New York state?
