US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[CAPTAIN HAPPY]

Trump keeps killing my digital elf in world of Warcraft and keeps fucking up my dishwasher filter!!!

Trump ate my homework.

They still exist lol. You just have to press an extra button to see them.

I have it checked but it's not working

Some (all?) of the Settings/Preferences options don't work for me, either. I haven't tested that one, though.

You know, after this whole Hurricane fiasco, the first thing Trump should do is dismantle FEMA or at least rip them a new asshole, just to set an example for the other groups/agencies that have been fucking up.

So Elon is supposedly angling to be brought in to reduce waste, and FEMA just very publicly made fools of themselves in front of him, at the cost of taxpayer millions and the lives of hundreds if not thousands of citizens. (It's also important to note that FEMA does not actually have any enforcement ability. You can ignore them. It's legal to do so. At least, for now it is. They do, however, often work with local law enforcement, so... pick your battles.)

I fully expect, if Trump gets in, FEMA will be done and gone. They'll probably try and reform as another organization, however.

If Trump gets in, I hope he gives Elon Musk defacto dictatorial power to cut ALL government agencies. ALL of it.

I honestly do not know what the CDC, FBI, the DHS, the CIA, FEMA, pretty much every agency operating outside of the control of the government does. I am aware of what they are SUPPOSED to do but other than the arrest of the fucktards who were swatting people in the US, what else have they done for the people of the US?

Maybe I'm just taking Terrypills here I legitimately cannot think of a single thing other than the one I mentioned where they did something not-monstrous to their own people. My literal first exposure to what the glowniggers could do was 9/11. Even if they were doing good deeds behind the curtain, the US has gotten objectively shitter with each year, so I don't buy it.

Ashville is a lefty enclave, Buncombe County went 57% to Clinton, and 59% Biden. Ashville itself went about 80% Biden.

You get a lot of the starving artist/hippie librarian/barista types up there.

> vote for chaos
> get it
> blame the people you didn't vote for who have no power

I'm really sick of libtards, guys.

I think it has been like that for decades. Even if they were doing good deeds behind the curtain, the US has gotten objectively shitter with each year, so I don't buy it.

Mostly they embezzle money and rig elections and other sociopolitical events to ensure their own survival.

It's still funny knowing how fast that "weird" shit died

It's alive and well with the bots on preddit but pretty much nowhere else because most people realized how much of a self own it was

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

We literally have a duty to overthrow this corrupt government, a mandate from the better men who founded this country, and we slack off on it every day.

Happy Saturday.

He meant there's a page where you can see them inside you're account. You can't get notifications for them, but if you go to "Reactions received" they're all there, in chronological order. Null intentionally broke the counts, but you can see when someone reacts still by just refreshing that page.

Bruh this is the standard libtard tactics and it's universal. Just look at Canada. Libtard govt still blames their problems from a decade ago on conservatives. It's just their standard motto. They never ,ever take responsibility for ANYthing.

 

[Soycast Guy]

They are already saying that Trump (and in some cases, Elon) is spreading dangerous rhetoric about FEMA and that FEMA has been helping all this time even though there isn't a single clip of this happening. Conveniently ignoring the people on the ground saying that they haven't received any help from the government and that 100+ pilots stated that they weren't being allowed to land by authorities.

They also say it's a lie that FEMA doesn't have funds but that as well requires you to ignore logic since, if they actually had the funds then they would be out there helping right now.

I'm not saying it's working, but that's the narrative being pushed at the moment. The democrats will believe anything anyways so not really surprising there, the issue is what everyone else thinks.

This whole situation is reminding me of something. But what was it? Ah, right, Maui!

I drunkenly reread the entire declaration on Thursday night. It's so unspeakable based. The left would unironically label it some variety of hate speech today.

 

[Betonhaus]

Jeeze, I woke up this morning to lots of stories of FEMA and Democrat officials arresting people trying to help in the disaster and impounding their equipment. One tried to arrest a helicopter pilot who had left his son on top of a mountain to help with rescue efforts while the pilot made a quick trip, despite the pilot having all the paperwork and permissions.

When this percolates through it should wake some normies up

 

[LurkTrawl]

I offered to clean my neighbors' gutters for free because I was teaching my nephew how to be useful. They all said no. Their gutters were full of mud and leaves and sticks.

To be fair I'd have turned it down too, some people are landmines waiting to go off when they think someone "owes" them something from a 'free' favor.

I would refuse it simply because there is a non-zero risk of injury and lawsuit and/or property damage.

Point taken and I'd probably think of that too, but I haven't experienced that so it didn't immediately come to mind.

It's more the 20th century's idea of what art has to be. There's a Catholic church near me that has an incredible painted ceiling. It went up in the last twenty years. That doesn't count as "art," though, because it wasn't produced by a heroin addict so a Jew could sell it at an auction as a tax dodge. Same with new music. My church publishes lots of new music every year, but since it isn't for providing the sound track to drunk twentysomethings looking for somebody to sleep with, it's not "art."

I keep harping on this because it's true: a good chunk of what people think about art and also censorship is a result of astroturfing.

Yeah like the notion it was somehow always important to laypeople to have million-dollar portraits in existence. Or that the average joe in the Renaissance gave a shit about piano.
