Right now, polls are showing the race between Trump and Harris to be nearly deadlocked.

Jesus Cocksucking Christ, America. Get your shit together.

Wish we could, but a huge number of fear-addicted dimwits with swollen amygdalas have been brainwashed into profound bigotry.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 46 points 1 month ago

Don't use the passive form.
They aren't victims, they're perpetrators.
Of course, when all this is over, they'll claim they "didn't know", were just "following orders" or "it was legal".

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

Indeed, they are active participants in their own brainwashing. It is a cult, they have willingly abandoned both truth and reason to be members.

Ah, the Eichmann defence. Didn't work then, don't let it work now!

[-] hemmes@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Get your shit together. Get it all together and put it in a backpack.

Tribalism is a hell of a drug.

Jesus Cocksucking Christ sounds like a niche parody black metal band.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

wait I thought all black metal bands were parodies

[-] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

There are some that play it kinda straight, but yeah most are. Its just that most folks arent really familiar with black metal so I added that to further get my point across.

Jesus Cocksucking Christ

In the name of the Marilyn, the Manson, and the Brian Warner. Amen

Republicans are not a political party, they're a brand... that's the sad truth and why people are loyal to them.

“No, I’ll let you know when I will be. I will be someday, we all will be someday, but I’ll be the first to let you know,” Trump added.

"Trust me bro"

Me and my gf just cackled at that for about 25 minutes. Thank you

[-] TimeSquirrel@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 1 month ago

He actually said "Micheal Bolton" instead of John. 😂

"You know, you can just call me Mike..."

Death stare from the Bobs

[-] whostosay@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

That was my first thought too, we had just watched it two days prior as well

[-] GottaKnowYourCHKN@lemmy.world 57 points 1 month ago

Isn't this the same guy who thinks Kamala shouldn't be president because of her laugh? Or hates Obama because of a tan suit? THIS dude thinks people are being too hard on him?

[-] ech@lemm.ee 18 points 1 month ago

He definitely hates them because of those reasons and nothing else that they possibly have in common. Just those things.

[-] GottaKnowYourCHKN@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

PERSON! MAN! WOMAN! TV! CAMERA!

[-] elvith@feddit.org 7 points 1 month ago

See, he called it back then! He knew he would be campaigning against Harris! It's a prophecy!

A PERSON moderates a debate of a MAN and a WOMAN on TV - obviously they're in front of a CAMERA for it.

What else would it mean?

For weeks and weeks, I’m up here ranting and raving.

Well, he's certainly got that right!

"Let's just listen to music..."

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That would go fine with the old lady boomer saying incomprehensible things and the caretaker saying "lets get you to bed' meme.

Is the last one jazz hands?

[-] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 month ago

... wh... hrum.

Wait, this isn't an Onion headline?

Oh fuck, I was never in a coma, this is all real!

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

Guys.... This is the bad place!

[-] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 11 points 1 month ago

I am totally here making it great Hanable lectern. These imigants are terrible. - Donald Trump

[-] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

He has always been cognitively impaired! The first time he ran for president, and now! I dont know why people dont see that.

He was slightly more coherent the first time around, but he has always been like this.

I always found his rambling to be generally incoherent. But people i said this to at the time didn't see it, and i thought i was taking crazy pills.

[-] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah if at any point you listened to this guy and thought anything other than "what a moron" you were lying to yourself.
