Wasn’t there a recent conspiracy theory that the establishment doesn’t want Trump (hence the assassination attempts) because he’s an easily manipulated loose canon who doesn’t follow orders like a good shill should lol?
Point being that dems lost this election because they are inherently more pro establishment and have been for a while.
The top image gave me flashbacks to reddit, r/chodi, and the wave of Indians spamming r/Pakistan complaining about “love jihad”
Love jihad (or Romeo jihad)[5] is an Islamophobic[11] conspiracy theory[22] promoted by right-wing Hindutva activists.[25] The conspiracy theory purports that Muslim men target Hindu women for conversion to Islam by means such as seduction,[28] feigning love,[30] deception,[31] kidnapping,[34] and marriage,[37] as part of a broader demographic “war” by Muslims against India,[39] and an organised international conspiracy,[42] for domination through demographic growth and replacement.
It was funny because there actually were several studies and polls that suggested women in India preferred Muslim men because they were well groomed and more respectable than their Hindu counterparts.
Forgot the JVM eating the entire machine’s RAM for breakfast
Bruh it was a placeholder cuz it took me a sec to find the meme lmao
I heard the DoD actually started aaking about that too for new hires lmao
No it’s more because these typa comments are showing up after 13 straight months of dems giving a free pass to Israel and then expecting demanding people to vote for them.
The jackass in the mcfatnolds oversized gasoline powered truck acting like his steering radius is somehow larger than a semi by refusing to rotate his steering wheel more than halfway
Lol I remember how this dude only lasted a whopping 5 seconds pretending to be a progressive before accepting a shit ton of AIPAC money and talking about how much we need to defend Israel.
I think that’s actually what caused him to tank in the primaries in 2016 as well.
It’s about playing with your friends but I also despise default sticks as an analog input lol (especially coming from a mouse).
Either shape it to conform to my thumb like the cheapo one on the 3DS, or give me a Dpad.
Aside from the ergonomics, there are a ton of games out here commiting the grave sin of mapping analog to digital inputs.
Nintendo even got rid of the dpad entirely, so now you have no option but to use the crappy c-sticks for everything. It is a pain to use in something like smash bros which 99% of the time takes 8 directional inputs, not a continuously variable swipe.
The best part is the republican crowd is cheering and the democratic crowd in booing lol.
I know people here are laughing but they’d probably offer something serious.
Solar power blew up in neighboring Pakistan because the government forgot to make a reliable power grid, so now even the cheapest homes have an array on the roof.
Taliban probably want some of that action and will look to see where they can buy.
Don’t know why this is getting downvoted when it’s literally the core reason she lost.
Trump did bargain basement campaigning whilst Harris told the entire uncommitted movement to fuck off.
Like yeah no shit all the swing states went red, you alienated your own voterbase and then demanded votes because “the other guy is worse”.
Even a seasoned Democrat would at least go through the effort of pretending to care about issues and demands to get votes (Obama?). She straight up dropped actual constituents for chump change in PAC money like that somehow substitutes the electoral process.
It’s been 5 days and lemmy is still getting spammed with braindead posts blaming the 5 communists that live in the US along with concluding 20 million Democrat voters were actually just Republicans in disguise.
It almost feels like reddit again where people can’t put two and two together.
Yeah their immigration website crashed in 2016 when Trump won the first time.
So I will be sitting over here in the corner watching the repeat of history and people’s short term memory.
See you all in 2028 for Covid 2: electric boogaloo.
This is the same woman who told her constituents to “go back to China” after they so selfishly demanded a ceasfire in Gaza.
Al Capone watching his successors continue his legacy by smuggling PS5s and pirating games lol
Yes, read history or take a serious gov class.
This was almost a 1:1 repeat of 2016 and yet lemmy is still getting spammed with denialism posts with hundreds of upvotes.
Trump is representative of the systemic issues America has left unresolved, not a cause, and the writing has been on the wall for decades; so much so that people think old media (ex: simpsons) was very cunningly predicting the future when in reality it was parodying the same issues at the time.
The one key difference has been the rather recent introduction of the internet. You can often find both much more reliable and higher quality information in less than a minute that what you could get from something like 10 newspapers combined 30 years ago. Especially for the younger generation, not everyone is falling for the same stupid tricks anymore.
Great example is Washington Post. People think it dropped in quality after it was bought by Bezos, but ask any international academic and they’ll probably tell you WaPo was always hot trash.
All this stuff you see being “worse” has been predicted for years on end, so while you can technically say it is “new”, it’s nothing unexpected. Even the next level filthy mouth ramblings of Trump are just something the previous guy did off camera (cough bush).
To quote a user from another thread:
Theyre not the ones that need to learn. Voters need to learn DNC is a bunch of wealthy moderates grifting voters.
Love this comments section in denial because they refused to read past the title in both the post and article that clearly states most Palestinians don’t expect a difference.
The Palestinians in the biggest city on the West Bank seem to have already come to a provisional consensus: that the US election result has no real impact here because things could not possibly be worse.
The recently fired Israeli defense minister was allegedly claiming all the military objectives in Gaza were achieved, and that there’s no need for ignoring a hostage deal.
So I’m really failing to see how this isn’t already rock bottom.
13 straight months of giving Israel a free pass, Trump literally can’t improve the maxed out arm sales even if he tried.
And I can bet you my life saving Biden will do jack shit to stop Israel in his remaining 3 months even though he has nothing to lose.
Me trying to find the restrictions in question just like me trying to find Biden’s red line and also just like me trying to find Blinken’s endzone and also me trying to find the consequences of Israel’s actions for the past 13 months.
What a joke lol
