I wish both of these boomers would just fucking die already. And take Nancy Pelosi with you too and Chuck Schumer.

I've not seen a ton of reactions, but the only people shitting on Biden for having cancer is Hasanabi & friends (the second-largest political streamer, BTW).

Why maga a her instead of literally any of the magas available?

I'm here for the observation but don't do my girl dirty like that. She's been through enough.

Dunno but commenter above you probably means the fact her image was used for rabid feminists for hella long time, mostly in memes but not only.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

And if you watch the original video she isn't rabid at all. They just took some unfortunate stills

I was blown away went I watched the source material, and kind of pissed it took that long for me to see it.

She was so nice, and these people were having honest discourse.

Story of 90% of internet memes, ain't it xD

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago

This and all of the above, exactly. She did nothing wrong but some frustrated idiot managed to find one frame, and from then on that frame was plastered all over the internet to mean "insane triggered feminist" or whatever. I'm sure this person is sick and tired of seeing her face be used for "triggered feminist", not sure she'd like it to be used for "triggered MAGA" too. I'm sure we can find an actual triggered MAGA since persecution fetish is their favorite thing.

In a just world both would have been executed

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

Unfathomably based.

Everyone should be outraged that Biden got to live old enough to be a dementia stricken cancer patient. The man is scum of the earth.

Even democrats who support him should be mad: a prostate cancer is TRIVIALLY easy to detect, they must've known about this for years. And yet, they lied to their base to push that Joe Biden should run for presidency again.

What does 8647 refer to? I feel like I'm missing something obvious.

Also not sure about using the picture of the manic looking liberal lady as a template for this. She probably hates Trump as much - if not more - than you. Plus she's had alt-right people posting these unflattering pictures of her online for years.

I was thinking there's nothing particularly bad or menacing about "8647" as it just means getting him out of office.

I suppose spelling it out in shells creates an implication of how he would get removed from office, and could definitely be considered a threat.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I did some thinking and I think it is a reference to '86ing' someone which is slang for kicking someone out. I only heard it used in the 2004 Leisure Suit Larry reboot (probably because I have never been kicked out of a bar). 47 is Trump since he is (unfortunately) the 47th president. So basically saying to kick him out.

Thanks for explaining. Using numbers as political messaging is a bit weird. I'd only ever seen alt-right/crazy people do it before with 1488.

Edit: I believe you'd call it a shibboleth

1+4=5

2(8-5)=6

Trump will have three terms so 666 mark of the beast.

Trump is the Antichrist!

it is a common bit of lexicon in, at least, the US service industry. Places like bars, restaurants, etc. are where you are most likely to hear this used normally.

I do not shed any tears for the politicians and leaders that croak. Perhaps, I will when for the one who builds a socialized healthcare system for every single legal US resident based on the same healthcare former President Biden is receiving.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 15 hours ago

I'll say it here because it's not ever said.

Republican's cannot appreciate what Americans built because they didn't sacrifice anything to build it.

Democrat's cannot appreciate what Americans built because they believe they were the ones that built it.

Americans can't appreciate what we built because both Republicans and Democrats want us to believe we are powerless.

We need to ignore our government and do what we as Americans believe is the best course of action. A government is empowered by the people for the people. If our government has chosen to ignore the laws we as a country have agreed to abide by, then we have the responsibility to return the courtesy.

I'm not advocating for lawlessness, I'm advocating for Americans to stand up against fascism and tyranny. Tyrannical rule doesn't follow laws but one. Strength over subjects comes to those who wield it.

I refuse to be oppressed and subjugated by a tyrant in orange face paint. I refuse to be subjected to the corruption of this cabinet of thieves.

Carter was good. Better than most deserved.

Obama tried to get health care. I wish he’d speak out more over the current situation in the US

"Imagine if I had done any of this"
