We need to ensure that we maintain the notion that an administration saying things like “suck it up” is never accepted as normal.
The memes are funny, yes- but the more this becomes a joke, the more we begin to allow for it because that’s “just what they do.”
That may be just what they do, but accepting it as commonplace doesn’t have to be just what we do.
Use THIS to speak your voice and don’t accept this administration’s attempts distract us by dumbing our politics down to memes.
They're so tone-deaf and under-educated, they have no clue that the things they say are not only lacking in humor, but lacking in any connection to reality, humanity, and they don't even understand the concept of empathy.
That administration and their remaining followers have no value for life of any kind.
We can't forget that.
It can be both. Let's flood them with memes.
It has been proven over the past decade that memes have real political power.
That was a serious statement and not a joke.
[if] we pursue those energy cost reducing policies...
I see only energy cost increasing policies, the recent forced shutdown of that 800 MW offshore wind farm, no more land leasing for renewables, policies to increase water pressure (=more energy required for pumps and for treating the water), and so on
The first president of Estonia after regaining our independence, was once quoted saying "The situation is shit, but it's the fertilizer of our future."
The meaning is very similar, in that he was saying that the hard times need to be suffered for things to get better, but what's different between him and the current American administration? Well, for one, the situation wasn't shit because of his personal ego trade war, it was shit because the economy was shit in every ex-soviet nation for a time. It took time to accustom to independence and free markets. But most of all, he spoke from a place of respect, not one of disrespect. Him saying that was his honesty to the Estonian people. He didn't lie and say everything would get good quickly. This was also a man you could simply approach publicly and he'd answer your questions. Didn't need to be a press release and you didn't need to be a journalist or a celebrity.
What I'm saying is that dear Americans, your current president and vice president simply don't respect you.
JD Vance was justifiably bullied in school
Pope killer
imagine if biden said that
"God, I wish that I didn't have to meet with this Vance person."
Yahweh's finger curls.
So what is the actual strategy at this point? They are being way too bold about this. Like I'm worried they have an escape pod that they're planning to hop on/fly away while they flip us all off and leave us stranded on a smoldering earth.
That’s fine because if musk is involved I’m sure it will explode
The goal is to cause civil unrest, to declare martial law and violently put down the unrest. To fragment the US into micro nations, tech cities governed by oligarchs, as well as Christofascist Gileads.
It’s accelerationism, it’s been accelerationism, the weirdos on /pol/ and Mencius Moldbug have been pretty clear on that.
Well I know that, but how does a statement which actually serves to in-group most of America against the administration actually achieve that?
Dividing left and right and instigating a civil war fits with the plan. Splintering factions within the left, white collar vs blue collar, college educated vs non college educated, all of that seems to fit with the accelerationist plan. If you don't keep your base and or military happy though, who fights on behalf of the elite?
Fuck you, JD
funny, I'm sure they in return can think of a thing or two you can suck up yourself, you pope killing couchfucker weirdo.
"Let them eat cake."
That's a funny way of spelling "go fuck themselves"
pretty standard when they want it to be on OTA TV IMO.
Not that I am against the article but this is nearly 3 weeks old. Is it news at this point?
This is SHOCKING
Please tell me more about how deregulation will save American workers money and not lose them more limbs, jd
I am so fucking glad this dipshit can not command the cult of MAGA they way Trump can.
Seriously he has the charisma of a burnt chicken nugget at the back of the oven.
That’s why the pope died.
JD Vance sucked his last will to live right from his body.
The D stands for Dementor.
Welp, time for him to suffer similarly. As a public employee, his salary should be $7.25/hr, and have $10 in his checking account.
Screw that! He should be put on SSI! $2k cap on assets & forced to spend a third of his income on rent or forfeit it. See how fun this economy really is!
Wait, you guys have $10? /s
$2.92 til Friday :,-)
Due to inflation, it's now only worth three fiddy.
No wonder the pope had a stroke after talking to this guy
I hope Pope willfully took an exit to talk to The Guy about this couchlover.
the guy that killed the pope is funny
