Now now, you can’t hog all the generosity! I too would like to donate.

Maybe we need some kinda program to help patriots who want to kindly donate to help the media, like a journalist tag lottery.

Then you know how many journalists you are allowed to help out for the season.

In that case i'd say the rule needs to be updated then to mention that jokes about any of those things is also not allowed since that is not specified anywhere in the rules and, just my 2cents, at the moment it seems like it's being applied unfairly as the previous comments look to be breaking rule 2 (main comment is promoting the idea and the second is endorsing it).

Joe Biden has been president a mere 88 days.

Biden literally Hitler confirmed.

Considering how much journos like to circlejerk about Nazi dog whistles they sure love to use them themselves a lot.

Uh... You sure about that? We started on 4chan after all (I was one of the first 10? 20? members of the group that started the whole phenomenon, no joke). I'm not exactly right wing but I've been a veteran of GamerGate, support Trump, and I frequent TD.W, so pretty much everyone would call me right-wing.

Not all of us.

I'm not exactly right wing

It's almost impossible to tell right-wing from left-wing these days, at least on the anti-wokist movement, because they have largely converged on a sort populist (e.g. anti-big business) and anti-identitarian synthesis. I do believe this is the future of what is now known as 'the right'.

??? You're a brony? Lol, interesting. I was referring to the whole fandom, though, not every individual person. It started off on 4chan regardless of where you started.

And huh, that's a good observation, and accurate to me. Although I no longer really believe in optimism and believe that only extreme violence can solve the oppression we're going through, what you said does make me want to be a bit more optimistic.

– 1776ReasonsWhy 1 point 5 years ago +1 / -0

I found this fairly accurate in 2017 when I saved it. I think people mistake Bronies as Leftward-leaning because they're viewed as "challenging masculinity" or something when they just liked a cartoon show. Incidentally, the pony the FedEx guy liked was the country Pony with a generic southern accent. Most of the Lefties I've met in my 4 1/2 years in the enemy territory of Portland routinely virtue signal about how The South is the single worst cause of all the suffering of the country, and if we could just dispose of them, we'd all be better off.

For what it's worth, I myself identify as more and more right-leaning as the months go by simply because there's little other political option besides glowing, or retreating to the mountains and hoping the barbarians never come to find me.

I brought up the "southern pony" because it was the one that the shooter you mentioned liked the most, and directly posted about before he did his dirty deed. I brought it up in order to compare my experience with Lefties hating what they think the south is, and contrast it with your statement about him being leftwing, even though he obsessed over the southern stereotype character.

I don't have twitter, and I never used reddit for politics, just video games. Good try, though. I am further unsurprised that a TV show with an age range of 3-10 would be considered 'infantalizing.' I didn't expect your reply to be so pissy. :/

Harris isn’t in charge either. She was literally picked because of her skin and genitalia since Biden promised his running mate would be a “female of color.” It’s more likely a group of people high up in the dnc are calling the shots, not a cackling wine aunt and a dementia patient.

Nah, because he didn't hide his other radical influences. Openly mentored and praised Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright (the former of which is just mainstream nowadays),

The whole Obama story (and to a lesser extent Sotomayor) are just kind of eerie when you think about them.

Child raised by a single mother in the poor side of town gets into Harvard and becomes a senator at a young age. Serves one term as a senator and then is rocketed up to presidency.

You can't see any grades or records or transcripts, though. You just have to trust he earned his way through the whole way.

Its kinda like Pizzagate. Even if we accept "well this theory isn't true" there is so much fucked up stuff, so many coincidences, and so much suspicious shit that doesn't pass a sniff test that it is nearly impossible that something isn't fucked up in there.

Just because a conclusion is false, doesn't invalidate all the evidence that pointed to it. So even if Obama was born in America, there are clearly elements that would be suspicious even on their own let alone as a group.

Pizzagate was the first time I got to see a conspiracy theory get destroyed by outlandish claims in real time. All the weird potential codewords and costs mentioned in the emails and stuff certainly pointed to something, but it spiraled into the devil worship and satanism stuff so fast, then the guy shot up the one pizzeria so now those are the only parts anyone talks about.

He didn't just shoot computers -- he fired a shot at a computer that CONVENIENTLY hit Alefantis' hard drive inside the computer, rendering investigators unable to retrieve the data from that computer.

All the cameras that could have captured the incident on tape were also conveniently down for repair for that particular day and that day only.

It's like he was a hired hard drive hitman... with an IMDB page.

and so much suspicious shit

Then focus on the suspicious shit and not on a pizza parlor with no basement!

permalink parent save report block reply
▲ 11 ▼
– Adamrises 11 points 5 years ago +11 / -0

When you have tens of thousands of autists weaponizing that shit, you will have plenty of ones whose speculation goes awry, come to weird conclusions, and become certain of things entirely based on their hunches. That's the trouble with conspiracies, you are building narratives from fragmented, coded ideas and then welding it together as best you can. Sometimes it uncovers reality (McCarthy) or sometimes it becomes something beyond reality (later McCarthyism).

That's not even getting into the idea that the entire pizza parlor was a false flag, which even if the idea itself wasn't, the shooting almost certainly was.

permalink parent save report block reply

– throwawayaccount2037 5 points 5 years ago +5 / -0

They did. That's exactly what /r/pizzagate was doing.

The media was the one blasting the pizza parlor nonsense about the basement because it was a convenient strawman to attack because Comet Ping Pong had no basement. That wasn't even the main investigative point of the /r/pizzagate sub.

In fact, the day the sub was shutdown they were crowd-sourcing cross-reference material between the 24,000 names that the hackers uncovered from the pedo network spread across Twitter with the names in the Wikileaks e-mails from John Podesta's account.

There were even a few crossover hits, like the guy with the distillery in Hawaii who was selling "cheese" and other odd items on eBay for $10,000.

If Jack Ryan hadn't tried to get Seven of Nine to go out and do kinky shit, he may not have even gotten that senate seat. It's funny (in that "coincidental, not ha-ha" way) that Jack's sexual proclivities got dragged out of the woodwork of his sealed divorce proceedings right at the same time he was gunning for that senate seat against the liberal Lord and Savior...

1/3 of a term.

He was elected in 2004, took office in 2005. He started campaigning for POTUS in 2007.

You can't see any grades or records or transcripts, though. You just have to trust he earned his way through the whole way.

The fact that he was successful at everything he tried strongly suggests that he earned his way through the whole way. Whether by charisma, or intelligence, or whatever.

No, that just means just the opposite. Someone who earned their success always has failures. Someone with no failures means that someone else with lots of power was removing obstacles from his path.

Compare Obama to Elon Musk, or Donald Trump. Both have had plenty of failures. Musk blows up a new rocket every other week, and Trump had multiple million dollar ventures go under.

Where were Obama's failed campaigns? Where were Obama's failed companies?
Where were Obama's spectacular explosions? He never earned shit.

Someone who earned their success always has failures. Someone with no failures means that someone else with lots of power was removing obstacles from his path.

Or it could just mean that he was extraordinarily lucky. Imagine the string of good luck that he had: historically bad and scandal-ridden opponents, charisma, his race.

Compare Obama to Elon Musk, or Donald Trump. Both have had plenty of failures. Musk blows up a new rocket every other week, and Trump had multiple million dollar ventures go under.

Trump, in my opinion, is not a terribly successful person, except in politics. If he had stuck all the money that he inherited into an index fund, he'd have more money now than he earned with his business dealings.

Where were Obama's failed campaigns? Where were Obama's failed companies?

Not failing enough is not an argument against someone. Let's say for a moment that someone truly extraordinary showed up, and I'm not saying Obama was that guy. And he managed to succeed at everything, because of his extreme talents. By your standard, you would be mistrustful of him, because he did not fail enough.

Correct.

The Law of Large Numbers is inviolable. There is no such thing as luck.

It is only your magical thinking that allows you to believe that Obama was legitimate in any way. And it truly is magical, because Chicago is the most corrupt city in America. It is legendary for its corruption.

CNN staffer boasts to Project Veritas that network peddled anti-Trump ‘propaganda’

By Mark Moore April 13, 2021 | 5:53pm |

“I had so many arguments about, like — my dad would be like, ‘You’re, you know, you’re voting in Kamala Harris because he’s going to die in the presidency,” Chester told the woman. “And I’m like, ‘He’s not going to f—ing die.’ But I’m OK with that. I’m OK with that. She probably could be a b—h in, like, a board meeting, and you’d hate her as a boss, but she’s f—ing real, and better than what we got regardless.”

If Biden's gaffes are due to a stuttering problem, why is it that he wasn't making these gaffes during the Obama administration? No one can watch a Biden speech from even 2015 and a Biden speech from 2021, and honestly claim that there's no difference between the two.
