return2ozmaBiden campaign joins Trump’s Truth Social platform
Expert trolling.
A true Dark Brandon move.

Hahaha that’s hilarious. Good move.
“A thing about campaigns is sometimes you just do things for the lolz,” Rob Flaherty, a deputy Biden campaign manager, wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, of the decision to join Truth Social.
This guy knows what’s up.
Rob is right around my age and the millennial influence is obvious. The progressive millennials have always ran circles around their foolish republican counterparts. The memery and clowning on silly republican bullshit is effortless. When it comes to social media the right loses every time.
No clearer evidence of that then let’s go Brandon. A true honest to god meme that the right got handed naturally. They lost their shit and beat it to death. I literally saw some loser in head to toe let’s go Brandon clothes.
Of course it got co-opted into Dark Brandon and they ended up only improving bidens image.
I hate that we even have to talk about political meme strategies but here we are. And there’s no one better than the dead inside chronically suicidal for the lulz millennials to lead the change.
Let them clown on the right. They deserve it.
st3ph3nSaw some douche in a pickup with a Let's Go Brandon banner on the rear window yesterday, It was accompanied by a chromed plastic 'FJB Edition' badge on the tailgate. Classy.
Saw someone with a Proud Boys decal on the back window. Took everything I had not to call the FBI tipline going 75 down the highway.
I live in the heartland of the south and see trumped out cars everywhere. I’ve seen people with q anon stickers. One guy had like 15 ‘extreme maga’ magnetic decals just sort of slapped on the vehicle all around. Like what the fuck is even that. Even if you are convinced d trump is the savior that’s just… unhinged behavior.
It’s such a perfect litmus of who is an idiot and who isn’t. If your dumbass took the time to slap a q anon sticker on your truck and keep it there all this time, you are extra Fucking special.
Unfortunately we have a Republican population here, so there are Trumpers about, but for the most part you can’t pick them out unless they start talking to you… but there’s this one lifted pickup truck with huge tires, decorated in Trump decals and flying multiple Trump flags, and most of the time when you see it, they’re hootin and hollerin about something that’s just different than what’s usual around here. It’s just the weirdest thing to see, people will stop and stare at it as it goes by and then will be frozen in place looking at each other for a few moments after it’s gone.
On another platform I run a page called Actual Trump Derangement Syndrome and it’s just pics of that sort of psychotic bullshit
The Brandon chant is proof that the right can’t meme. The left literally out-memed their boomer humor at their own game. Lol
I agree, but the right really isn’t good at processing humor or art. In their minds Let’s Go Brandon is still the epitome of satire. It’s playing chess with a pigeon.
These are the same people that think attack helicopter is hilarious.
Political memes are nothing new. “I like Ike” is as much a meme as dark Brandon.
TIL!
The advertisement’s memorable jingle turned “Ike for President” into a popular catchphrase; its final line was described by Paul Christiansen as a “party-transcending appeal to voters”.[1] Adlai Stevenson II, Eisenhower’s opponent, felt that the ad trivialized serious political issues and referred to it as the worst thing he ever heard. Eisenhower’s organization planned to broadcast the advertisement five to six times every night during the final two weeks of the campaign in a few targeted areas. Eisenhower won the election in a landslide, though his campaign’s advertising expert thought the ad made little difference. Time magazine later ranked “Ike for President” eighth in its list of the top ten campaign advertisements
It goes even further back then that with “Tippecanoe and Tyler too”. If I’m not mistaken, that was the first campaign slogan. “Tippecanoe” being William Henry Harrison.
Holy shit, he really did say that.
They’re about to start bringing Dark Brandon back!
Dank Brandon
He has to do the weed thing, then he gets to be Dank Brandon.
CileTheSaneDark Brandon is the profile picture they used.
“Old Men Yell at Cloud”
TropicalDingdongI wonder if they’ll be able to flag things as hate speech violations, and force the platform to take action against its own members…
AmberPrinceOoh I like this. I mean, hypocrisy means nothing in that bizarro world but it'd still be nice to see.
As in, flagging posts that aren’t hate speech? Because I thought the hate was the point of the site.
gregorumMight as well have a little fun before it goes under.
JaysynI bet they're daring the platform to ban them, so they can go "Hey ... you're not trying to silence your political rivals, are you?"
FizzI’m interested to see if he gets banned from truth social.
I think ToS said you can’t criticize ol’ Donnie D
So it’ll be interesting
Does it actually say that?
If he gets banned it will be great for shutting down my dad when he pipes up about free speech
CurlyMoustacheEeeeh, will it…?
To him no but to me yes
i see now that you’re just a normal dude talking about your own dad, but you did sound a lot like eric
Every little bit helps
Biden’s gotta be trolling him.
Flying SquidThat’s exactly why they joined. They said “Converts welcome” and showed video clips of Trump being more of a dumbass than normal.
Realistically is there userbase even very big?
There are dozens of them! Dozens!

these are just estimates, but similarweb gets it pretty close on the sites where i know the actual traffic numbers.
Sad to see it that high.
LOL. someone is reaching
Yeah, you.
ooohh …guess you burned me good job
I wonder how many democrats use that platform.
At least one.
I mean just imagine if even one person changes their vote to Democrat based on something they read on truth social, it would all be worth it.
What about Lemmy, though?
I hope the staffer running the account has a good therapist. It could be quite harmful to deal with that much stupidity.
