Front page of reddit right now. They truly are living in an alternate reality:

I remember when the front page of reddit used to be filled with whatever was trending, or unique finds. Now it's nothing but a hug box for shitlibs and bots to regurgitate mainstream media talking points.
I talked about this with some other people who watched. They had nothing but contempt for zelensky. After this I legit can't use r edit even for other things and or listen to anyone that defends zelensky at all is just gonna be written off by me for being worth listening too
 
Because the theatrics of this asshole constantly dressing like he just came in from a bunker being rattled every 30 seconds by artillery strikes are fucking gay. He's not a warrior, he's not coming in from the field, and he's nowhere near danger, and many of us are sick and tired of him maintaining this charade in public without anyone saying how fucking ridiculous he looks.
I fully agree with you. The way he dresses is very important as you could give it a pass for a while, not for three years. Put a shirt on, he looks like a slob.

Even Elon Musk, who dresses like a slob who gets his clothes at Goodwill, has the good sense to pull on a rumpled sports jacket when he goes to the White House. He may have forgotten to return the loaner suit coat from some steakhouse 10 years ago, but he's polite enough to wear it while in Trump's presence. Unlike Zelenskyyy.
 
Zelensky really should have gotten a translator. His English is poor and he struggled to make a point. His worry about Russia not being a reliable deal keeper really could have been expressed quicker and better . His comment about US possibly being attacked by Russia one day came across as a threat.

His body language was awful. I don't know if Trump and Vance have been media trained but they both had their arms and knees opened when they were sitting down and Zelensky was just all closed off.

Also, Zelensky came across extremely self entitled. I mean he can't demand that the US keeps fighting Ukraine's war. Has he not figured out that it's a proxy war and that the outcome was decided probably years ago?

Ukraine was given so much money and so much help, they clearly aren't going to win. And while my heart bleeds for all these poor civilians who've lost everything, the truth is that Ukraine is a shitty invaluable country with nothing to offer. Zelensky needs to stop acting like he's a leader of a western global superpower.

Reddit aside, but the comments everywhere else seem to be siding with him and outraged about Trump's behaviour. Im really not getting it.

Zelensky has never been able to handle the media he had some serious issues during Biden's term with having to be coached up by them on what to say and to not crash out like he did today. If you are seeing comments supporting him you are just hitting whatever algorithm for libtards or are reading MSM tbh even fucking neocons are dumping on Zelensky for what he did.

What probably happened is when he did his big meeting with senate/house Dems before meeting with Trump he got gassed up to go sperg out and ask for more money/troops just like he did 2 weeks ago after Rubio/Vance met with him and when he went after Biden on that phone call for more gibs. If a peace deal is going to be done it's going to have to be behind closed doors because he is going to sperg out the second he is on camera.

Also every single time Zelensky has some sort of meltdown stopping peace every single EU country puts out a tweet of support so I guess when nearly every country kneels before you anytime you fuck up and get more of your own people killed in a pointless war you would think you did a good thing.

They just don't like trump, that's really what it is. They will soon anything to make trump look bad instead of the truth.
 
Zelensky never should've argued to begin with. It wasn't a twitter slap fight, it was a meeting with the President of the United States about the future of Ukraine. If you disagree with Vance, just keep it quiet until you're behind closed doors. It boggles my mind that the entire planet is melting down over Trump and Vance when nothing would've happened if not for Zelensky wanting to argue in front of the media.

All platitudes though.
It isn't going to matter if the prime minister of Denmark tweets about supporting Ukraine if they're just going to ship them some guns and ammo to let the bloodbath continue

Yep, it's default. He could come out and say Jesus is proven the Lord, Moses was right, mohammed was 100%, all of it. It doesn't matter whatsoever what he does or says, they're all NPC's that'll just bash cause orange man bad. The amount of groupthink and cult behavior is maddening. Even during W some on the right would criticize him.

I don't know what it is about Trump that garners so much devoted hatred. Especially from his first fairly calm first term. I guess Elon's right about some woke mind virus cause it's been nuts.

My best hope its 90%+ of reddit and DU and BS and left reddit are just bots. They all follow the exact marching orders. Trump says sky blue, liar it's red. Same over and over. He's a nazi he's evil. Even hard rightwingers didn't go this insane over Obama. It's fucked! And I don't think they realize how they have zero critical thinking which is what they always boast about. It's all mindless bots.

Why is it BASED and RED PILLED for JD Vance to adopt the exact same words and tone as one of my shrill middle school teachers lecturing me for being late to class?
Because clearly it needed to be said just like you needed to get to class on time you spiritual spic.

I'm still so disappointed he didn't issue a press release during his first term simply stating "the sky is blue" just so we could have been treated to endless articles and news broadcasts breathlessly explaining to us how it's not. I would have died a happy cow having footage of a news anchor having to lie to the cameras about how the sky isn't blue.

Eric Videos is a pretty good mocking left site lately, he's been really mocking the dems. He's a bit more of a rightward asmongold in his analysis mocking them

Because he was lecturing someone acting like a bratty retard middle school student who was late to class for the twelfth time in a row and making demands of the teacher as soon as he stepped into the classroom
