Also I remember looking it up for someone complaining about Kamala Harris being a "DEI hire". Can't remember if it was someone here or another random twitter shitter

Prior to 8 years ago, these kinds of statements would have easily been disregarded as sarcastic

Hurricanes hit Blue States.
Republicans: This is because God hates the gays!

Hurricanes hit Red States.

In case someone thinks you're joking, this is actually a narrative that the melted brain Trumpists are pushing.

Wrestlers are famously stupid, but the WWE training center in Orlando is famous for developing complete Trump pilled Qanon pilled morons, and here's the latest:



"Do your own research" = listen to the Joe Rogan Podcast

Haha all these do your own research people, I bet so few of them did any post secondary or they're lucky if they even have a GED... but suddenly they know how to effectively research and form a narrative about something in a well thought out way...

......because of all the training they had failing to do exactly that in the public education system? And suddenly now they're good at it? What?

I cannot believe how much chem trail and sky manipulation talk is out there. Just unreal.

The internet did an amazing thing giving everyone the chance to be connected… but it’s greatest failing has been providing a platform for fucking morons to spread their stupidity.

Your thoughts about this article? Would Hurricane Milton give Cheeto a political opening to attack Harris and the Democrats? He's already blamed Biden and Harris as being incompetent when Hurricane Helene hit North Carolina.

Storm politics:


https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/09/polit...sis/index.html


Boy, I wish that Milton would go beast mode on Palm Beach and destroy
Mar A Lago. Milton does a number on Trumpy's private club hahaha.

FYI: Milton as a category 4 hurricane means that wind speed is 250km. A Cat 5 hurricane has 252km or faster winds. Yikes.

The Republicans were already trying to blame the storms on Democrats by saying they haven't funded FEMA.

https://www.newsweek.com/how-republi...helene-1965729

Jesus fucking Christ, the Republicans were the guys who wanted to defund FEMA, and have historically tried to kill the agency.

When you see stuff like what Skinny posted, it makes me start to wonder why I even care about any of this stuff.

We as people are just fucking stupid, dumb apes that evolved too quickly, maybe we deserve the bullshit governments we vote in.

This is what pisses me off the most, not just in the US but this happens in Canada as well.

Shameless politicians lying through their teeth to pander to their uneducated base, which in turn just adds fuel to the misinformation fire, further causing divide.

And it's becoming more and more blatant, because they keep getting away with this shit, there's zero accountability for lying anymore; brain-dead morons would rather believe jets sprinkling magic poison is the reason their life is shitty, instead of the people they continue to elect.

This is the only thing that I respect Elon for doing in the wake of the hurricanes that hit North Carolina and Florida.

https://thehill.com/policy/technolog...mergency-help/

Free activation of the Starlink satellite services for Florida and other state residents who use T-Mobile or other cell phone carriers. -could save many people's lives if they lost their 5G signal on their cell phones.

Fuckin had it with the second you're not hard right you're trust all government far left soft on everything... whatever happened to just being NORMAL.

This was semi-debunked, as it's not entirely free. If anything it's almost predatory.

Maybe Elon thinks that he can invent a new SpaceX or Tesla super drone to ship a base to new Starlink customers during hurricanes haha.

Elon has been one of the main drivers of the hurricane misinformation too

The Elon dickriders are looking worse and worse with each passing day. Normal people can see it, why can't they?

Trump's ground game is quite poor, so the Democrats might have a slight advantage in getting voters to the polls. I also think Trump's attempt to attract younger voters might fail because, let's be honest, what guy living in his mum's basement, sitting on Twitch all day, is actually going to go out and vote?

Why is nobody talking about Trump's "Coachella" stunt.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-b2628775.html
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-coa...132134719.html

tl;dr:
- Trump holds rally in "Coachella", which is not where the music festival is held, but a ranch (ie. an empty field), 5 miles from parking.
- MAGA morons are lured to attending by being promised free shuttle rides.
- The theory to this is that this way, they can't leave in the middle of the rally.
- Unrelated, hardcore republican with multiple loaded guns gets arrested.
- Once rally is over, MAGA morons find they have no ride back to their cars in the middle of the night, in scorching desert heat.
- Many of the attendees that were stranded are elderly (surprise surprise)
- MAGA morons begin rioting, assaulting two of the bus drivers. (3 buses to take people out, vs the 30 that were used to bring people in.)
- Turns out bus company refused service because Trump campaign ignored payment requests (again, surprise surprise)
- Trump lies and says 100,000 people attended. Turns out capacity to venue is 15,000.
- Morons think their hardship is due to a conspiracy by Democrats, and will continue to vote for this fuck.

You can't even make this stuff up.
