Not sure if it was posted here yet but apparently luminary of our time, Ben Stiller, said he's ready for change and that's why we should vote for Kamala.
He thinks she cares about democracy or something like that.

US election: Actor Ben Stiller throws weight behind Kamala Harris​

Hollywood actor Ben Stiller has joined the list of celebrities throwing their weight behind US Vice President Kamala Harris in the race for the nation’s next leader.

TMZ reports that while hopping on a Zoom call for Monday’s “Comics For Kamala” event with other celebs, including Ed Helms, Jon Hamm and Whoopi Goldberg, Stiller pledged his support for Harris and announced a donation to her campaign.

The Locked Down star revealed that he would give $150,000 to the democratic nominee while sharing how excited he was at the prospect of Harris beating her opponent, former President Donald Trump.

While encouraging everyone to rally around his candidate, Stiller described Harris as a “decent person” to take over the White House because she cares about democracy.

Speaking further, the actor referred to Harris as a historic Black and Indian candidate who is everything wrapped up in one individual.

“I’m Jewish and Irish… I wish I was black, every white Jewish guy wishes he was Black,” he added.

Anybody getting pissed at the remark is either in the dems spin cycle or Vance's comment hit too close to home. And before somebody gives me shit, the whole childless cat lady gargling on francia also applies perfectly to the soyfaced faggot that collects funkopops.

I don't understand why so many people buy Funko Pops at all. Sure, when they first came out I can see some people thinking they're a bit cute or something and wanting to buy one of their favourite character but how did it not just get old fast and be a fad that died within a year? And pretty much all of them are the same damn figure just different designs!


 
Boy, they're really trying to pretend that we don't know that she's just Biden 2.
They're trying to get everyone back to the wonderful "vote blue no matter who" state where it doesn't matter that she's Biden 2. Remember, if you vote for them "no matter who" then they have absolutely no incentive to earn your vote. They LOVE that.

I could understand having like one or two as some sort of desk decoration but I don't understand the autistic collectors.
 
They have an unrealistic expectation where they think it would somehow piss trump off.

These are the same people that 100% believe in their heart and soul that Trump threw spaghetti at the wall and choked a Secret Service agent unconscious so he could ride around in the presidential limo. When Colbert and those guys made fun of his "tiny hands" and John Oliver tried to make "Drumpf" a meme they truly believed it was making Trump seethe. It's almost juvenile humor, but some juveniles would even tell you that shit's cringe. Even recently at the DNC with Obama going full "MUH DICK" to try to "own" the Orange Man, it just falls flat repeatedly to anyone not already totally submersed in those echo chambers.

Men with disposable income and no real social life, not that hard to understand. Most are just filling a void because they either don’t have a wife/kids, or are in a miserable marriage. Now they retreat to nostalgic IP and try to collect them all to have some form of purpose.

Sad, but given the state of America it is understandable. At least it is something to keep them semi-productive rather than going Elliot Rodgers mode.
 
Even recently at the DNC with Obama going full "MUH DICK" to try to "own" the Orange Man,
Its one thing when some late night show host does it, another when a former president does it on stage at the party convention. Then it just looks pathetic. Man who know America's secrets, one of the most powerful people to ever live and he's making dick jokes? That's just sad.
 
The cartels are as powerful as they are in Mexico because they are so entrenched that they can get by with that shit, the police know they outgun them and the government is bought off.

For all their bark and all the trouble they cause, they wouldn't be able to get by with that kind of escalation and survive. The Taliban were hard to defeat because they were fundies who believed they'd go to heaven for fucking blowing themselves up in the middle of a convoy, the cartel soldiers have no such radicalized belief system. They believe in money and profit.

They're the ultimate anarcho-capitalists and an example of why anarcho-capitalism is actually retarded. It would just end up like Mexico but worse as there wouldn't be a government to even moderate things a bit. You would just have cartels ruling and paying off anybody who might otherwise try to stop them.

But Trump demanded two scopes of ice cream!!!! Hitler!

Does Stiller not realise Kamala is the current administration? It doesn't matter. He's just blindly supporting and acknowledging that things are bad and need to be changed. He's been told to support Kamala. If anything it's more of a slip but it doesn't matter. The machine has told him to support Kamala and is a blind sheep as to why.

Which is something scary about this modern world. People just get told what to think and they do it uncritically. It's not new, when I first became more politically aware was in the lead up to the Iraq War. It was utterly apparently, transparently so that they were lying about WMDs. You just needed to actually listen to what they were saying, pay some attention and look at different sources. Think. Yet people just uncritically accepted the narrative.

What has gotten worse now is that we have information overload. There's no excuse for not understanding the bullshit, yet people have chosen and/or been manipulated into needing even less information. They question nothing the establishment tells them. Back in the days of the Iraq war lead-up, I'd at least get into arguments with people where they had some basic understanding of why they supported the thing. Even if they had incorrect information. Now you can't even do that, people have opinions strongly, they support things and they don't even know why. Yet as it's such a concrete belief they are distrusting of any counterargument. You mention something that is a 100% undisputed fact, they'll be distrusting and think you're pulling some tricky mind game on them.
