POG Politics Thread Version 3

Biden out!

Nailed it.

maybe it was just that she was polling 3rd? I'm talking about 2020 or maybe even 2016. she was behind sanders and warren in her home district!

she is not popular in Oakland.

or it could have been a district attorney race. Google was useless

basically, rich people voted for her as AG to lock up poor people. poor people voted against her.

she kept prisoners locked up past their release dates to keep them working as slaves, putting out fires in CA, and whatever other slave labor they did

This coconut tree expression of Kamala's is catching fire already!

Oops there goes another coconut tree plant

so Netanyahu spoke to Congress or whatever. and everyone kept giving him standing ovations. but like 150(or whatever) politicians refused to go and listen to him talk.

and they fill the empty seats with whatever replacements. and the replacements stand up and cheer when he talks about genocide.

but what I really do not get is why tf don't you go?!? like if you really oppose the guy, then go!!!! like Rashida tlaib did! go and boo. be disruptive. actually oppose him you know?

same with when whatever artist/athlete lib turns down an invitation to the white house to make a point. I don't get it. if you want to make a point GO TO THE WHITEHOUSE! spit in the president's face. tear down the paintings of the monsters Washington Jackson Jefferson lincoln Roosevelt. piss on the resolute desk in the oval office

there's a lecture on YouTube where some ruffian does everything but piss on Lacan's desk while he's trying to riff on Language and the Unconscious or whatever. Lacan asks him what exactly it is that he wants us all to know and the guy says something like Culture is a Spectacle* but Authenticity is possible if we reject given forms**.

*in the Debordian sense
**Authenticity is not possible

I wish I understood that. it sounds great

Wow, Tucker Carlson now has the #1 podcast; overtaking Joe Rogan. This world is crazy.

That's really sad. These people are who Americans choose to listen to. Develop their identity around..

99.9% of people in history are right wing

Not exclusively, though! We have single cat ladies who form their opinions based on watching The View.

and some others who get their opinions from birdman

Can't join em either

These JD Vance couch memes are funny as hell.

Trump has to be regretting picking him.

yeah the couch jokes are great

I saw betting lines have him 13% to replace vance

healthcare

clean air and water

access to education

democracy

kindness

man, being against all those things... mark is a monster! :p

and like tbob said, good luck joining the billionaires. let me know if you do, I'm gonna come over and hang out on your yacht

I've only seen one couch meme so they must be a small section of the Internet. Also I thought it was fake news

About 96% of what's out there between now and November will be fake news. You may as well just start assuming everything is propoganda ... because it is.

Grrr.

what happened was the AP posted a headline that said "no, jd Vance did not have sex with a couch"

then people pointed out that was a terrible headline because there is no way the journalist could know. so the AP deleted the article.

then people made some great jokes

Wait... are you guys getting amplify posts? Why is no one reacting to this?

Amp! I've missed you!
