There is no difference between this and Kim Jong Un.

Still unbelievable what US Americans voted for.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

How long before you get run over by the "I didn't vote for this " crowd who sit home and watch desperate housewives while typing furiously.

The refrain of the American coward: “how dare you suggest I’m not doing everything I can? What have YOU done, big shot?”

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Haha also true

Why did they use his 'I'm currently shitting myself' expression?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's his official photo. The same thing in an 8x10 frame is hanging in every Federal building.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That just makes me wonder why they used his 'surreptitiously shitting' expression for the official photo.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

From what I've read, he wears diapers, and regularly shits himself. I want to believe this is the truth, because it would be funny.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I think it has to be. This has been corroborated as far back as when The Apprentice was filming.

Someone had the nickname wet wipes because it became part of his job to change him from time to time when he shit himself. He also completely ignores it, or might not be aware it's happening.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

It leads credence to the story that he smells really bad

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago

Like a scene from a dystopian scy fi movie

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I wonder how flammable something like that is.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I'd give 20-1 odds that it's a Chinese-made print on petroleum-based material, and highly unlikely to be canvas. So it would make beautiful art as it burns and drips.

Edit: picture this- this building with this banner at night. The banner in flames at a rightward angle. At the bottom of the banner where it's burning, the cheaply made plastic based banner melts as fast as it burns. Dripping, black molten plastic stalactites feed tiny black plastic stalagmites below. Freedom and law are seen in burn barrels behind the building.

No they aren't the Itilian one would go hard as a bit of art for an anti-fascist punk album. The other one belongs in the margins of a middle school history book so you can see this weird shit.

Paint ball target practice.

Someone needs to draw a big cock and balls directed at that mouth on that face.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Iron Cross or the Reichsadler seems more appropriate

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

That wouldn't anger anybody. Left or right.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is fascism.

How are there still people in denial about it?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

Denial? They'll argue with you about it.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Well if that isn’t the most Orwellian thing I’ve seen IRL I don’t what is.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's not orwellian, it's just fascist. Check out what mussolini was doing

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The banners remind me of 1984.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

They remind me of FUUUUUUCK!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm sure it's made of fire-retardant material. But maybe we should test it just to make sure.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Idk about fire retardant but there sure is a picture of a retard that should be fired.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Fired at. By real assassins, not the ones they planted, including the SS' gun holster/belt that 'shot' his ear
