mannycalaveraI actually love the BMX Bandit film. It was Nicole Kidman’s debut role.
I also enjoy the homeless guys (I smell sausage rolls!!) and the repulsive snooker commentators (that was a bad miss)

kittehxHey Ronna Romney McDaniel is probably really annoyed they’re giving nazi salutes behind the presidential podium
Like, so tacky you guys OMG.
It’s going to be 4 years of memes at the expense of the yanks, lads!
Sorry US friends, just going to have to suck it up this time around. Maybe don’t elect a Nazi next time?

Next time?
We should be so lucky.
Joke’s on you: Americans are memeing about it too. Because at this point, our only two options are basically “meme about it to stay sane” or “overthrow the entire fucking government.”

MathiasTCKThey have proposed a plan where a president who has served two non consecutive terms could then serve a 3rd.
They still fear an Obama comeback.
It’s almost like it’s a perfect distraction for an easily angered Left. Anything to help deflect from the exec orders and pardons and damned if it doesn’t work painfully well.
With the added bonus of making the Left sound hysterical so as to make persuadable centrist/moderates less likely to listen when there are real actual harms.
Dude played us like a fiddle.
Did you notice how more than half of voters voted for trump?
Mainstream America doesn’t agree with us on the fascist accusations. Screaming about things with which the majority of voters disagree with us on isn’t a recipe for success and makes them less likely to believe us in future.
A wrong answer is not a meaningless one.
Whether or not people are duped into believing something wrong doesn’t make it more right.
It’s still wrong, it’s still a lie, it’s still incorrect.
The truth of our world will always find its way back to the light, because the people who strive for truth have a will and ambition like no other, regardless of whether they’re wrong at the moment. A few may keep themselves in perpetual darkness, but they know in their heart of hearts that reality. It’s why they so fervently clutch for the phantom of a truth before pulling a Luigi.
Did you mean to comment on something else?
Just want to make sure you’ve got the right post.
More than half of voters did not vote at all this election. Of those who did, both republicans and democrats got less total votes compared to last time.
It’s not that American voters don’t believe that republicans are fascist, I think many are aware of that. They also see the fascist tendencies of Dems, and recognize that for 50 years now, Dems haven’t really done much to improve their material living conditions either. If Dems ever have a chance to do so, there’s always several corpo dems ready to torpedo bills over some nonsense, or the senate parliamentarian won’t let them, or some other bs.
Trump at least said things to his base indicating he recognizes the pain points and promised to address them - even if those more discerning among us realize he will do the opposite, the important political aspect is that he had the right optics by addressing the real issues for the working class. Dems could not be bothered to do this, and instead insisted they wouldn’t change anything, again. And further, made it a point to team up with neocons like Liz Cheney, and kiss billionaire asses like Mark Cuban’s.
So, if you have 2 fash candidates, both courting their rich donors, and one is saying more of the same, while the other is campaigning on fixing your issues and is positioned as a political outsider…why not vote for possible change? Don’t try to blame the voters - the blame for this outcome rests solely with the DNC, and the corruption endemic to politics via legalized bribery.
Lastly, look what happened on day one. A mile long list of executive orders, many of which targeted the issues Trump’s base wanted. Sure, some might not stick, but he actually delivered on those campaign promises on day 1 just like he said he would. When was the last time a democrat ever did something like that for their voters?
About 60% of eligible voters, votes in the 2024 elections (slightly more or less depending on methodology.)
But I think your larger conclusions about voters deciding both parties are fascist is unsupported by reality or evidence.
I’d agree they’ve grown disenchanted but that’s very different. Unless, we’re just in this new stage where anything we don’t like is labelled as fascist.
DarkFutureSo, by this godawful trash logic, you’re saying 1930s era Germans shouldn’t have spoken up, because the majority of Germans were onboard with fascism?
Please seek a better education.
No… You are absolutely missing the point.
Calling the Republicans nazis is going to convince zero people they are nazis. What it will do is make all those Biden-Trump voters, or reluctant republican voters discount what we say when it matters.
If we scream nazi when Elon trolls us, people are much less likely to care when we scream it again about detention centres.
Unlike you, I understand the danger this administration poses and the importance of addressing it in a meaningful way. Letting Musk troll us into throwing temper tantrums ain’t helping.
ikiddNo, it’s checkers. The same checkers I played when I bullied my sister as a kid.
Elon:
It’s not complicated, not brilliant but goddamn are we taking the bait like my 10 year old sister did.
Do something you could interpret as a nazi salute.
Wut
Well, frankly he’s pretty fucking uncoordinated if he was trying to do a sieg heil. Like, getting shot by the SS bad at it.
Which is the point. By making it close but passable, we freak out, moderates roll their eyes and the Left gets discredited.
I really thought we’d matured beyond falling for stupid shit lile that but I guess I had too much faith in people.
Look. He did “do a sieg heil”.
He did.
No “maybe”, no “tried”, no “looks like” - NONE of that.
Ya boi straight up did a nazi salute. Because he’s a massive racist. If you can’t get there, we can’t go any further.
If the richest human in existence, who will have an official position in the White House, performs multiple Nazi salutes while standing behind the presidential seal at a presidential inauguration, on national television, we HAVE to talk about it.
Not sure why that’s difficult for you to understand.
I guess that’s why the internet advice is “DO feed trolls.”
The whole point is to make us scream nazi so that everyone else goes “oh the fucking left, they spent 4 years screaming fascist and then we had another election. Now those idiots are screaming nazi…”
It’s really not complicated and my God are we taking the bait hard. It hurts to watch, we shouldn’t be this stupid and gullible but here we are.
