Imagine that job though. It is your job to be a scapegoat for traffic collisions.

This wasn’t how I expected GenAI was going to start killing people but it will do the trick.

I feel like he was hoping someone would associate what he was doing with the Democrats, like he hoped someone would catch the alias but not know who was behind it.

I think a big part of why it’s funny is because the original was so very NOT funny. It was such an intensely dark shift in tone, a deliberately serious dramatic beat, in a comic that was all silly fun, completely unexpected and out of place.

If it was just a miscarriage joke then yeah it’d just be purely fucked up, and pretty quickly forgotten. It’s the meta context that turns the whole thing into more of a joke than any single comic could tell.

You’re only proving that you don’t actually have any idea what’s going on here, acting like we’re resting on our laurels because there was a big protest. Nobody here is thinking “Yeah we made ourselves heard, job’s done!” Nobody here says the fight is won, but you’re out here acting like nothing is being done at all.

What may have been the largest organized protests in American history were just a few days back, the president has record-breakingly low approval, even his own party’s talking heads are turning against him. If you’re not going to be satisfied by anything short of armed uprising then at least be brave enough to say as much, but pretending that Americans just don’t see anything wrong and aren’t doing anything is an act of wilful and blatant ignorance.

Meanwhile their vote or lack thereof directly empowered someone who actively encourages it, they just don’t want to take responsibility for that part.

Even if you had heard of it, an overwatch copycat is hardly a premise to grip the attention of the masses.

The Pentagon has contingency plans for every situation they can imagine. This is not news so much as it’s just another example of Hesgeth being a fucking moron. They have plans to invade everywhere, they have contingency plans to counterattack against a Canadian invasion for fuck sake. They have these plans because if a situation arises, you don’t have the time to be cooking up new plans. Hesgeth acting like this is actually a plan that’s being considered it just another example of why he’s not fit to manage a godamn Mcdonalds, much less anything important.

OK boomer.

Clearly they should just make their own coffee and cut the avocado toast right?

Honestly, not nearly enough times.

So they added one thing, but you’re complaining they haven’t added literally every other improvement you can imagine?

The traditional 2A guys are on the side of the tyrants. It was never about resisting tyranny, never about freedom. It was a combination of “I like guns, fuck off,” fear of the world around them, and fantasizing about violence against liberals. The government they want to violently resist is the kind that’s forcing them to surrender their home to immigrants or trying to make their kids gay. They daydreamed about shooting rainbow-haired liberals trying to flounce in and steal their guns, not police and national guard following orders. Tyrants sending immigrants to concentration camps and making “the gays” legal targets for persecution are exactly what those traditional 2A twats want.

It’s why leftists and LGBTQ+ arming themselves is so important. We cannot count on the 2A Old Guard to protect us, their rhetoric about resisting tyranny and keeping the government in check was a lie. Given the chance they’d gladly join the MAGAstappo instead of lifting a finger to protect actual freedom.

They think Chemtrails are different from normal contrails, like there’s a secret switch ion the cockpit of certain airliners that dumps mind control drugs into the air. They don’t actually have any interest in reducing emissions, they’re just mad about the liberal mind virus spray.

Sometimes I think about how if any previous president had done, over the course of their entire career, the things Trump does in the average week, or sometimes even just a single day, it would have immediately ended their career. If a previous president had openly stated that if a specific person funded their rivals there would be serious consequences, that’d be it. They’d be done. Impeached on the spot, out of office, blacklisted by their own party, and shamed for all of history.

The news cycle crucified Obama for wearing a tan suit. They raked him over the coals because he was so out of touch that he asked a burger place if they had Dijon mustard. What do you think they’d have done if he openly promised retribution against those who dared disagree with him like this?

And Donald motherfucking Trump does this crap all the godamn time, and he just gets away with it because the Republicans like that it’s their tyrant, the Democrats are afraid of actually doing anything, and by the time the public can mobilize against one thing he’s already done three more things that make the past look trivial.

Maybe if we’re lucky they’ll all fall in the pit and disappear together!

Well the thing that made it blindingly obvious was that it was a 30 second video of a tall truck driving full tilt toward a low bridge, so obviously something was about to happen!

He might be, but that’s a chance I’m willing to take given how fucking terrible Trump is.

Gosh I sure hope Harvard can find some top-tier lawyers willing to come to their defense!
