And was shaken by how clearly impaired Fetterman is currently. He mumbled, got lost in his thoughts, stammered, stared off into space. He was not all there.

He even looked like he was about to burst into tears when talking about how Democrats are losing men.

Circuits are fried. There is something wrong, wrong.

48. Maher or Fetterman?
Mon May 11, 2026, 08:44 PM
4 hrs ago

Maher is just a misogynist. Fetterman is emotionally dysregulated.

The claim they make is that the current crop of adult males (those maybe 10-15 years younger than I) were raised on media that portrayed men-as-husbands being bumbling jokes. Think Malcolm in the Middle's dad, or Homer Simpson, or any number of commercials where men have to ask their wives how to use a laundry machine.

This is manifesting as an inferiority complex and defense mechanisms that are amplified with social media and online parasocial relationships.

It is a reasonable hypothesis, but I'm a man and I'm not wounded by these depictions. Like yeah, it is an overcorrection from I Love Lucy, but since when did us dudes become such snowflakes?

Obviously, the blind spot in this reasoning is the ~4000 years of women being disenfranchised and viewed as the 'pot of dirt' that a man's seed grows in.

Fetterman, though, had trouble talking and looked like he was going to cry. It was painful to see. He didn't cry like Jordan Peterson (who cries in anger like a lunatic).

Had Fetterman not been a party to murder on the streets by a paramilitary, he would be the subject of pity. He is a tragedy.

As much as I want him to resign, and as much as I like heaping scorn on him, I have to admit seeing that look in his eyes as he tried to form thoughts and have them slip like sand through his fingers... it was sad. He is on a track and can't steer.

I want Fetterman to go home and be with his wonderful wife and family. He is ill and shouldn't be in a position of power.

Bill Maher? He should drown in a river.

why no one who MATTERS is calling him out on the OBVIOUS impaired speech and thinking processes. He's STRUGGLING and short tempered.... and his frustration with himself is obvious.

I wonder how his wife is coping?

I wouldn't be surprised if a divorce isn't in the offing in the next year. (I'm sure Gisele can handle the physical disability and slowness) but the anger and personality changes would be a deal breaker, especially with children also trying to cope with those obvious differences from 'dad before the stroke'.

And I am a "Pttsburgher" and voted for him and was a proud supporter. But this iteration of Fetterman I cannot abide. It's time for him to be stepping down in order to address his own health, his marriage's stability, and what his children must see as a changed dad.

There is nothing that can realistically be done -- advise him not to run for reelection because the DSCC won't fund him, but beyond that they really can't make him do anything. Take him off committees? Ooo less homework

If we win the senate with only 51 seats, we will be back to a Manchin situation. I do think if he starts mucking everything up in a situation like that, it would be best to publicly throw him to the curb. Manchin and Sinema really helped killed momentum and motivation among Dem leaning voters.

Mon May 11, 2026, 07:02 PM

From wikipedia:

Disinhibition, also referred to as behavioral disinhibition, is medically recognized as an orientation towards immediate gratification, leading to impulsive behaviour driven by current thoughts, feelings, and external stimuli, without regard for past learning or consideration for future consequences.[1] It is one of five pathological personality trait domains in certain psychiatric disorders.[1] In psychology, it is defined as a lack of restraint manifested in disregard of social conventions, impulsivity, and poor risk assessment.[2] Hypersexuality, hyperphagia, substance abuse, money mismanagement, frequent faux pas, and aggressive outbursts are indicative of disinhibited instinctual drives.[2]
