Still browsing the discord dump, saving "memes" as I go.
All of the following images come from a channel called #meme-bank. Make of that what you will.

Every single one of these is utterly cringe-worthy.

The left are so fucking humourless and always have to get their shitty "messaging" into everything.


Bit rich of Antwan Kumia to criticize someone for being inappropriate with a child.
 
Reading up on the last 20 pages, there has apparently now been some sort of controversy about Sleepy Biden calling trump supporters "Garbage", I don't know why they of all people are now getting assmad about this when Trump has been known (and loved) for flaming his way into the presidency.

Trump Supporters seeing their guy talk shit all they want, but NOW they get offended when the other side makes a relatively mild statement about them now.
You're right, "garbage" isn't that bad compared to everything else they say and do. But it's Biden that said it, not a celebrity or newscaster. People just expect Trump to act a certain way and that's kind of immunized him from a lot of criticism from minor fuck ups. But Trump doesn't usually go after half of the electorate, he goes after individuals. A throw-away ad hominem like this towards a group of people is a fuck up for the "Party of (D)ignity's" sitting President and people are clowning on them for the fuck up. The actual garbage comment won't make undecideds clutch their pearls, but the subtext of such poor planning and damage control from the Harris campaign may leave a bad taste in the mouth. Trump's garbage truck gag is the non-diet, zero-aspartame Coke to wash it away with. That's what will have more impact than Biden's little slip.
 
The Colorado voting machine stuff is stupid. Regardless of the state of them and any exposure, Colorado will always be blue in everything for the next thirty years.

Why? Because Denver is full of boomer retards who think republicans are all bad from their shitty teenager years and can’t grasp that things change over time - and expat Californians. Both the worst things on earth. It’s all old white libshits watching MSNBC and refusing to open up to any other form of information thinking Grateful Dead and Zappa are still in peril if those republicans get power, killing their rock bands. That and spoiled trust fund LA kids trying their best to turn the state into a somehow shittier version of the coastal California cities they fled.

Colorado despite being red everywhere else doesn’t matter, only Denver and luxury ski resort towns do. The state is fucked and will continue to be fucked for years.

I think it's more about the contrast between the massive spergout the Harris campaign had over a joke nobody laughed at that sparked the whole thing. Of course when the sitting president sticks his foot in his mouth a day later the Trump campaign is going to latch onto it. It sucks all the energy out of the initial push to make the whole MSG rally about Puerto Rico being a swirling pit of garbage and gave Trump an excuse to do a goofy garbage truck thing, which is supporters seem to love. I thought it was funny after all.
 
Trump is hilarious and your pre-election events and celebrations are absolutely high energy. Obviously given the artificial migrant crisis going on and poor economy, urgent measures in internal politics will be priority for his administration when entering office. However, they will have to deal with external politics sooner or later so I'd like to know whether you believe Trump can handle Cheenah and the world conflicts going on and if you do, why and how? Feel free to bring up trade wars and various other examples from his first presidency.
 
Two words: communist infiltration.
Communism as a mainstream ideology practically died with the eastern bloc when the whole thing fell apart in the 90's, any other surviving "Communist" states have either silently went along with the global free trade order established by the West see: China, Vietnam, even Cuba to some extent (North Korea is kind of an odd exception)

Socialism is the word you want to use, but even then they are also a fringe group in the context of the US political ecosystem
 
I swore to my fiancee that when I died, to have me cremated and spread my ashes at the base of the Unisphere in Flushing Meadows Park. It killed me to wake up one day two years ago and finally admit the painful truth that it wasn't my NYC anymore and I had no business being there. Nothing there except memories. Can't even revisit anything because this city knocks down and destroys everything the minute it's not viable anymore.
I know that feeling.

I grew up in Flushing Queens near the Cemetery and PS 107 between 46th and 45th. Kissena Park was my park that I would al,ways go to with my parents to play. 162nd Street used to have some nice places you could walk into, including a small video rental store that was nice and roomy on the inside.

You go to 162nd Street now and the koreans/chinks have completely taken over it. You had north and turn left into Northern Blvd and it's much worse. Crowded and congested as shit. Roads look like crap. It's like I'm in a completely different country, like i warped into some bughive or something. Kissena Park isn't even safe, before everyone left the wildlife alone, and now they're all fucking fishing in that pond catching god knows what. I'm pretty sure the poor turtles are a victim of them too.

How about we split the baby and call it Marxism?

Interestingly, the trade war between the US and China never actually stopped when Trump stepped down and Biden took up the mantle, it was just a little less loud than when Trump was making his rah rah speeches about sticking it to the ChiComs.

In general, the foreign policy of trump never deviated that hard from the standard US neocon playbook, I think people (lefties specifically) were just getting overly worked up on how much he was being a dick about it, this aspect of his presidential agenda is the most bipartisan.

I guess the one thing you shouldn't fuck with, Dem or Rep, even as an outsider, is to deviate the interests of the Military-Industrial Complex.

This hits it pretty close.

The whole angle here is that the Democrats had already said that referring to anywhere or anyone as garbage was totally out of bounds, unacceptable. I'd been getting texts all day about how "Puerto Ricans like us won't stand for Trump's insults! Donate now."

They determined the terms of acceptability and that "garbage" was a monumental insult not to be borne. That was their choice. Then they decided to use the same term against the entire other side. That's why the objections are being raised. They'd just said this was such an unacceptable term for a comedian to use that it should compromise the campaign, then when the actual President of the United States uses the same term to refer to his opponent's supporters, that's (D)ifferent. It puts the hypocrisy front and center.
 
whether you believe Trump can handle Cheenah and the world conflicts going on and if you do, why and how?
yes, we already have his track record of his first 4 years. First president in my life time where russia didn't grab land. First pres to walk into north korea. He knows the right words to say to em, as he elaborated on rogan and other podcasts.

It comes from dealing with them realistically rather than the view of them you get from living in msnbc lala land. They harp trump on this for always saying xi or putin are smart but the reality is he's right, these are sharp ruthless mofos and you have to ackowledge that to deal with them properly in international politics. You don't get to run a country of a billion people without having some smarts and toughness. The world does not, by default, run on just smiles and good intentions like that, as much as trump's detractors would like it to be the case

Please don’t include me in your stupid “meme,” why do they keep acting like every woman loves sacrificing children to Moloch?
They believe they speak for all women. Same with minorities. But just you step out of the party line and see if that mutual feeling remains.
