How do these people explain the fact that they're currently alive in a world where Trump was president from 2017 until 2021? Being able to continue believing the narrative in the face of one's own recent life experience is probably the most amazing part of TDS.

"Oh! It's so STRONG!"

Um ackshually chud, even noted magazine of record the Economist is touting the current economy.

Not sure if showing burning dollars is conveying the strength they think it shows.

And it's been decades, but I'm pretty sure I remember an episode where the main villain was going around spreading AIDS. (WTF 90's?) Which political party is it that thinks it should be legal to knowingly spread AIDS again?

WRONG! You're HIV positive!

You might be confusing it with the episode where Verminous Scum invented a drug and then got everyone in Washington DC addicted to it.

In the AIDS episode, he just outs a kid for having it.

Do you think any world leader is going to want to deal with a mental defective like Kamala? At all?

I keep seeing this point being brought up and while I absolutely agree with your take I would like to add that there is a bit of a loss in her not being president.

You've seen the meltdown on Fox, now imagine if she had to deal with this guy:

(Argentina's president in case any of you have been living under a rock, and no the crazy face is a feature not a bug)

Not saying you should risk your country going down the shitter over it but it would have been a really funny interaction (ditto with Giorgia Meloni), a shame it's never happening.

The whole Brat thing was really badly advised.

If you have children, a brat is a small child that desperately needs backhanded because they break shit, throw fits over the dumbest shit (Like not letting them climb into the oven to watch the cookies bake), demand treats constantly, and want every single desire and whim catered to.

To parents, saying someone is a brat is saying that the person needs a good smack in the mouth and then stood in the corner.

To adults, brats are the little shits throwing a tantrum in the store, screaming at the top of their lungs for some stupid shit. Brats are their dumbass liberal/fundie sibling's retarded indigo child or out of control little shit.

NOBODY likes brats.

With one exception.

But there's another meaning.

A brat is a submissive who lets their dom know they need attention by acting up. By disobeying or being 'naughty' in public. It's a sub/dom relationship bit.

The number one thing you do with brat when they act up is spank them.

Either of those is NOT a good look for a female president.

Throwing ineffective tantrums and screaming to get what they want OR misbehaving so someone stronger and more dominant will spank them.

Yeah, that's going to work great as the President.

The only people that thought this was a good idea was childless weirdos who smell of stale boxed wine and urine soaked kitty litter.

One more little thing: Do you think any world leader is going to want to deal with a mental defective like Kamala? At all?

You want to see American isolationism as countries just start ignoring the US because there's a wet-brained drunken retard in charge?

Elect Kamala, who will probably get pissed that people laugh and hang up the phone on her, ignore our diplomats, and laugh at our ambassadors while they do what they want and Congress/Senate sends them whatever they ask for.

You'll see American isolationism.

In the event of what is looking increasingly likely like a Trump win, the post-mortems of Kamala’s campaign are going to have to reckon with this. Give me rainbow reacts but we might have seen the last gasp of relevance of the pop culture obsessed AWFL. They will still be an important electoral demographic just by virtue of their number and propensity to vote, but they will never be let in positions of power over a major political campaign ever again.

The whole Brat thing was really badly advised.

The Brat thing is dumber than that. Basically, a British pop star named Charli had released an album called Brat that got popular and Kamala tried to coop it much akin to Hillary and Pokémon GO. Charli (being a UK libshit) dipped her toes into endorsing Kamala but backed out when she got backlash and realized the potential shitshow that was going to start.
The passage on Wikipedia about it is kinda funny.

In July 2024, she appeared to endorse Kamala Harris in her presidential campaign, stating "kamala [sic] IS brat".[222] In August, she stated that she did not expect the tweet to be construed as an endorsement, but that she was "happy to help prevent democracy from failing forever."[223]

Jeeze these people are delusional. We are going to be feasting on salt for literally YEARS if Trump manages to stop the steal this time (and it's starting to look a lot like he might.)

You know, glad to see her being herself, honestly. And at least she's having, y'know. Fun.

You know, no one has talked about Kamala’s stepkids.

We have talked about her stepkids before. I've shat on her daughter's fashion and put her in a 'We Will Not Go Back' edit. They just don't matter and aren't really relevant to conversations and the thread. I think a lot of people just also don't like dragging in the family of politicians into this.

I for one welcome the Captain Planet talk over talking about a politician's kid. ...Because Captain Planet is campy schlock and REALLY fun as a concept.

...Well, except Tim Walz's daughter, Hope. Who SUPPOSEDLY, APPARENTLY, helped rioters by snitching on when police wouldn't be active or some shit. Wonder where she would have learned that type of behavior.

Mods are asleep

A brat is a submissive who lets their dom know they need attention by acting up. By disobeying or being 'naughty' in public. It's a sub/dom relationship bit.

The official campaign explanation (a) for brat had something do do with an album cover.

Charli told the BBC's Sidetracked podcast that brat is a concept that represents a person who might have "a pack of cigs, a Bic lighter and a strappy white top with no bra".

It has been deemed by some pop critics as a rejection of the "clean girl" aesthetic popularised on TikTok, which spurned a groomed ideal of femininity, and instead embraces more hedonistic and rebellious attitudes.

“You’re just like that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things some times,” Charli explained on social media.

“Who feels like herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But kind of like parties through it, is very honest, very blunt. A little bit volatile. Like, does dumb things. But it’s brat. You’re brat. That’s brat.”

To be honest "a pack of cigs, a Bic lighter and a strappy white top with no bra" is a terrible look for a president and I'm assuming it was only used briefly to bootstrap basic bitch democrat supporters to cover for the actual internal coup.

I literally think his skull-fucking of the entire Republican field during that time is what got me into politics to the degree that I currently am.

Nothing can ever truly recreate what happened in 2016. It's not yet in the past enough to be looked at objectively, but I would describe it as biblical in proportion.

The sheer denial at what what happening versus the momentum of support. The way they just continued to feed him coverage and support. The narrative they spun, that life was just like an awesome story, and hilly defeating trump would mark a symbolic moment of progressive ideals defeating everything they said was wrong with america.

At every point, everyone around me said that the trump campaign was supposed to just fizzle out. And the sheer fallout that happened afterwards rocked the nation to it's core. People were left in literal shock, and I don't think they ever snapped out of it.

I am so happy that we're Captain Planetposting on a Friday.

In more relevant news, the Wisconsin Senate debate was a little spicy. Baldwin (D) and Hovde (R) were at each other's throats the whole time, including swipes at Baldwin's dyke wife who is a hedge fund manager. It got down to them arguing over who went to University of Wisconsin. They both got petty.

All of the questions were softballs to Baldwin.

Prelude to massive, limitless salt on November 5.

Kinda wild that we are 2.5 weeks away from the season finale of this retarded shit cycle. Biden's term has felt like this weird time dilation where it felt like it was lasting forever while it was going but it aged us even faster.

Regardless of what happens I'm glad I got to live in a timeline where a leading candidate for a presidential election remarked that one of his competitors uses tampons and embarrassed Chuck Schumer to the point of sneeding.

If you've never seen the anti-drug episode of Captain Planet, you should go find it. Washington DC is invaded by literal drug zombies. Linka gets hooked on Verminous Scum's made-up drug (named bliss) because her cousin snuck it into her food. Then he dies of an overdose in front of her.

The 80s and 90s are full of cartoon episodes like this.

 

[Jet Fuel Johnny]

Wait, so they redefined "Brat" as a party-slut with emotional issues, and STILL thought it was a good look?

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAhA!

Holy shit, her whole campaign is nothing but wet brained retards.

For me and the other 99.9% of people who have never heard of that album, what comes to mind when they say “brat” is “spoiled brat”.

I'm sorry, I haven't watched an episode of Captain Planet since the mid/late 90's. (Not that I don't still watch cartoons as a grown ass man, but Captain Planet was just a show I watched on Saturday mornings waiting for Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers to come on.)
I vaguely remember they switched the theme song to an obviously gay man rapping about how much he wanted to fuck captain planet, and I think I stopped watching after that.

I remember being upset that my parents wouldn't let me watch Captain Planet because it was blatant leftist propaganda. I was a faggot and they were totally right.

Covid made everything feel like it lasted forever.

It felt like I was a freshman in highschool waiting for my dad to pick me up before I could drive. Just waiting for him to get out of work and him texting me that he was 10 minutes away when he was 2 hours away. If that makes any sense.
