They cannot help themselves but to parrot the idea that Elon is the "unelected President", lmfao.
It's actually so pathetic.

I've heard this everywhere by lefties. Why do they say that? What gotcha do they think that is? I really don't understand it.

 

[Harvey sheckelburg]

I'm glad to see the dems learned nothing from the last couple years.

 

[SpergioLeonne]

Here's the thing though. Sometimes propaganda can be true. We aren't forbidden from saying things just because someone else you don't like said them. It's whether or not those things are true that matters.

Oh I totally agree. Gorbachev was a true believer in converting the Soviet Union into a western democracy, and he got the majority of Russians to go along with it.

What did we do? Stab them in the back to expropriate their manufacturing base, using venture capital to buy their industrial equipment and ship it to other countries

It's like what SpergioLeonne stated, it's meant to "attack the ego" of Trump. Even though it's very obvious that he just does not care, and is focused primarily on the policies he set out to do since the beginning.

 

[Jace on ice]

It's shocking how intellectually vapid and deficient our ruling class is.

Many of these people cannot speak properly, use proper grammar, and freeze like a deer in the headlights when asked very simple yes/no questions.

At this point the incestuous nepotism in the Fed can only be cleared away by going full scorched earth.

Communism is cool until you start running out of other people's money.

lol another mushmouth on the doge hearings

We get aluminum by melting a crushing up a rock called bauxite and then running a lot of electricity through it to trigger the chemical reaction that produces an aluminum oxide which is later turned into pure aluminum.
It takes like zero energy to recycle aluminum through and it's practically infinitely recyclable.

Yeah just like in Satisfactory.

This plan makes complete sense if your only source of news was late night shows who brought you classic hits like... Tiny Hands, Drumph, Cheeto Hitler, Putin's Cock Holster, and many more!

I say let them continue this strategy because it is going to work this time!

 

[George Lucas]

Yeah, same. I was actually waiting for the interviewer to say "What do you mean by 'aluminum is electricity in solid form'?". But she never did!

What would it take for her to ask her to clarify? Would she just sit there nodding if she said "Our plans for tariffs is burpa durpa bing bong shamalam"?

Aluminum is used as a conductor, but it’s kind of a shitty one. I don’t think it’s the main use. I think food equipment is the biggest use, or structural stuff.

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it was because of Biden that peace talks fell through, yes?

Not really, and I don't really mean in the sense of "Biden was never in charge" I mean that the USA wasn't really involved in the talks and couldn't really be bothered.

It was Boris Johnson who flew into Kiev in early April 2022 and killed the peace talks going on in Belarus by promising Zelensky to back him all the way, because the Brits are still worried about Russia being the Continental Hegemony and despite the literal 210 years it has been since the Congress of Vienna still want to keep The Great Game going.

 

[he who has thus come/gone]

So Bernie Sanders officially backstabbed Tulsi by voting against her. Any Bernie bros who still exist out there are pathetic.

 

[Prince Vegeta]

Communism is cool until you start running out of other people's money.

Reminds me of that dude that went to a campus and interviewed kids there about whether they'd prefer capitalism or socialism. They all replied socialism. He then suggested they make GPA equitable too, so that they give up a bit of their GPA to students who have lower ones, and they all started protesting "no, I worked hard for my GPA, you can't just take it away and give it to lazy students." It's all fun until someone wants to take something from them.

SHE ECHOES RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA!

He's not calling her a liar, though.

Possible although I’d more likely chalk the weird number up to an exchange rate thing. Like an even 1000 rubles works out to $51.80 or something like that(made up number of course. I’ve got no clue what the exchange rate is)

Her story sucks. I wonder if she felt pressured by her peers in the US to make that donation, too. $51.80 is a weird number to donate, so I wonder if it was a "I'm not like the other Ruskies" payment.

It was $50 + $1.80 processing fee at the time

whoever this Cohen guy is, NOBODY say anything mean to him online, he gets easily hurt

this guy
he was very upset about how there was an uptick in mean tweets at him after Elon took over

The guy who brought chicken to mock William Barr, while looking like a Jewish stereotype, is a spineless bully? Say it ain't so.

 

[Dammit Mandrake!]

That's in St. James LA and the rust powder coats everything for miles around. You don't want to live anywhere near it.

Definitely not.

But I do want that in my state.
