Canada is right here, guys, and we’re only sorry we don’t have free college. Free dental is coming, though.
I mean, it’s obviously fake, but on the other hand, it’s disturbingly close to something they’d actually show to rile up their not-so-smart-or-empathetic viewers.
if “tampon tim” is an actual thing in their toolbox, then literally anything could be
The wingnuts are so messed up I had to read this twice and really try to reassure myself it wasn’t real.
I realized when I got to “couches.”
I could tell by “LGBTQIA+” and “Rights”, also the phrasing of the medical care one.
Nice the market is all green which is also satirical. It was not.

My single favorite report was on this one.
Misleading title, it’s not clear this is a parody post.
For those that don’t know, it’s a parody.
Honestly the only thing that threw me off is taxes on couches. Otherwise I would’ve thought this was real
Nah I was completely ready to believe that Fox News would take a joke Walz made about couches (which I knew he did) and claim it was an assault on money and freedom.
That was where I figured it out too.
It is obvious because of “couches”, but apart from that, it could have been 100% Fox “News”.
Making parodies in modern times is a difficult business. You make up a joke, just to see that reality just overtook you with the pedal to the metal.
It sucks that I was unsure at “unemployed minors,” because the party is overtly pro-child labor and that bad at optics.
I honestly didn’t believe you until I saw the “Tax on corporate profits, couches”
I really can’t tell with this reality anymore
Meanwhile Trump is proudly sharing clips of his promise to start the largest mass deportations in the history of the country.
Both sides though.
This isn’t weird at all, lol 😝🔨
that’s satire, right? has to be. please. “unemployed minors”, that’s just a fancy phrase for “children” who ARE IN SCHOOL
“taxes on couches”
The question stands 😂
You mean “fun money”
The taxing of couches is legit!
What about renting for an hour?
Asking for a friend.
Who among us was not a confused and horny young man, left alone and unsupervised for a few hours, and allowed for a wandering mind…
I feel like this could be on fox news and they would lap it up.
I feel like this will be shared uncritically by people who sincerely oppose women having “unsupervised female health decisions” et al.
I rarely see anything Fox says for about two decades, and I’ve felt much better ever since.
Unsupervised female health decisions? Is this a real thing you would see on the television in the USA?
If it had been real, they would have chosen different phrasing, but mean the same thing.
Its sad that we are at least two who would legitimately not know if this is a meme/joke or irl in the US…
Edit: seems like we’re more than two…!
I thought it might be real until I got to the taxes on couches.
Still sad that its this far down the list and that the rest could have been true
Couches. If it’s a couch, it’s probably parody.
Remember, trump has said they’re not talking about couches.
Edit: For the record though, look for the “what a monster” interview. I can’t seem to find the original clip
Still scary that its only one word from being almost impossible to tell from parody
Pretty much. Yes. Terrifying.
You are really skirting the edge of Poe’s Law here. Not sure you could cut it any finer.
I think the issue is with debt. Both parties are positioning themselves as populists and are going to increase spending but the money has to come from somewhere.
In the fiscal year of 2022, Minnesota’s state debt stood at about 17.75 billion U.S. dollars. Comparatively, the state’s debt was approximately 5.6 billion U.S. dollars in 2000.Jul 5, 2024
These stats mean absolutely nothing and give zero context with how you’ve presented them, and you couldn’t be bothered to clean up your comment when you copy/pasted or give a link so others could follow.
How does this compare to the average increase of debt in other states? What kind of increase in budget did his programs add compared to other programs states initiate? What kind of impact or votes did Walz conduct that actually affected the budget and in what years?
Debt increases, we get no new programs. Minnesota’s debt increases, they get free school lunches, healthcare products, etc etc. Not really a convincing argument presented here or anything to even have a conversation about.

Your voting is showing. Debt is the short-attention fixation of the greedy.
What is my vote? How is it showing? Debt is a major concern in the USA with the highest debt to gdp ratio that has ever existed. We exist in a high inflation environment so running large social programs will exacerbate inflation and harm everyone.
Is that a real screen? Some of those seem mask off even by Fox’s standards.

Seriously, I wouldn’t be shocked if it was real. But it definitely looks fake. Especially with the couch bit.
Gotta think about it because the ‘right’ ‘wing’ is pretty weird and fox is a fire in a bin outside a Gregs in Rotherham but no, the couch fucker tax is a giveaway.
No
