I am pretty amused the biodiversity of this shit storm.

I don't really care about any of this drama it just seems a little boring.

But it looks like you did a lot of work gathering it together so I just wanted to say good work and hopefully you'll put as much effort into your next post.

r/wholesome_r_Drama :3

Not r/wholesomedrama

REEE

I dunno, I usually say R drama in my head for some reason.

Well it's too late for me to change the name now, jerk

Keep yourself sale.

never thought id say it but sexual assault is getting a little stale

Its a side effect of the modern 24/7 news cycle. Everything gets played out so quick.

its time for mass shooting again (?)

I downvoted him for too much tryharding.

thank you

Aren't they gonna install that nice colored Muslim boy now?

Inshallah

Oh man Ellison would be great for drama.

Nice effort post, good job.

Implying r/politics isn't always in total meltdown

It was always terrible but it's been full tilt since Daddy won the nomination. It's been exhausting just hate-reading it, I cannot imagine how tiring it must be to actually read and post earnestly in it every day.

That's something I just don't get about those subs. Do they just have a constant refill of users? I couldn't gather enough energy to seriouspost all the time.

Some are being paid Sorosbux. Some, I assume, are good people.

Poor assumption

You forget autism and garden variety stupidity.

i think it's a testing ground for neural networks and AI

I feel like it used to be a strongly left leaning political sub, but not anything more than that.

It's a forum based upon conspiracy theories and witchhunts now, and I don't mean against Trump. Anyone who doesn't completely toe the line is accused of being a secret Trump supporter. It's actually fascinating.

I missed the Ron days.

RON PAUL 2012 END THE FED REVOLUTION

INVEST IN BITCOIN BUX

fuck me I would make 10000 dollar if I invest just 3$ for lolz.

you only had to listen.

it very hard to listen when you have negative money.

They seemed pretty quiet for a day after the election. Almost as if they were awaiting some sort of order.

dude if I was be in payroll like them. I would take a unpay break after watching all that work went to nothing, spend entire day play minecraft like nobodies bussiness.

/u/magneticent Lost a good one today. I hope he runs again to take back his spot

lol, are you literally retarded? Why would he resign if he planned on keeping "his spot"?

So instead of dragging the party down in the 'scandal', Democrats can get work done.

People of Minnesota love Al Franken, and it's easy to see why, he oozes integrity. I bet he'd get reelected.

he oozes integrity

Does he wipe it off on womens asses during photo ops?

r/shitliberalssay

That's actually a commie sub, in communist lingo, "liberal" is anyone who supports capitalism and private property.

In communist lingo, "liberal" refers to anyone who supports capitalism and private property.

Um... you do realize that this is pretty close to the text book definition of a liberal? I mean, throw in something about universal suffrage and you'd be pretty much spot on.

Yeah, it's the original definition of liberal. He was using it like Americans use it though, like a synonym for Democrat, or, more often, to refer to anyone on the left.

Well, yes, but Burgerfats are retarded.

But hes a Mexican

Just as fat tbf

I prefer amerifat you shit

Democrats can get work

Yeah, but they may have to learn a trade.

he oozes something

yeah his cum hehehehehehehehehe

LOL

are you literally disabled

do you leave the house and say things like this

leave the house

Imagine being this retarded

You physically sat down at your computer, wrote something that dumb, looked at it, smiled to yourself, thought "what an excellent post I have made," and hit the save button.

Then you got pinged here, and did the same thing, except, now it's even dumber.

You're a fascinating person.

please make sure to upvote him so he can KEEP DOING IT

But what about muh feelz? How will he know I'm offended if I don't downvote him?

if you get legit offended by something someone says on reddit then you should probably go right ahead and press that downvote button

Then consider how charming you'd look wearing a columbian necktie.

Yeah, stop downvoting the lolcows you spergaloids.

Congratulations, you've been hired by Shareblue.

But I can't! If r /r/politics is right, I'm a Russian bot!

what

You’re a complete dipshit if you actually believe this.

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:

Al Franken Part 2: The Comeback Kids

Al Franken Part 3: Frankening to a New Dimension

Al Franken Part 4: The Final Franken

Al Franken Part 5: Fuck lol

I have a dream that Al Franken will run for President on the DNC ticket in 2020.

2020: Predator vs. Predator.

Whoever wins we lose was 3016's slogan.

the dream of a franken- stein ticket is still alive

/u/adrian1234 people tried due process against Hillary, but they all ended up committing suicide by two gunshots in the back of their head :(

Arkancide, it's a horrible disease with no known cause. It has affected over 100 people since it's discovery in the late 70's. Please donate today to the Arkancide Relief Foundation and help us find a cure. 1-888-254-6866. Thank you.

So I tried calling that number, but it turned out to be a pitch for vacation condos in the Ozarks.

Or the classic barbell being dropped on the back of the neck.

Al Franken would not have resigned if the governor of Minnesota was a Republican. This doesn't give the dems any moral high ground against pedobear Roy. I'd rather have a child molester ephebophile senator than a commie senator. At least with Roy you know he will always think of the Children.

As Rich Evans, our shining joy, once said, " can't fuck em I'd they're dead".

ephebophile senator

*libertarian senator

Oh, come on, we know it's not about communism, you just like young bussy.

Just posting to thank OP for digging through the pile of shit so the rest of us don't have to.

Thank you!

LIBTARD TEARS GIVE ME STRENGTH!

Saying libtard unironically is libtarded, that's how stupidly shit that word is, you can use it as an adjective for people who think it's cool?

I don't know man rethink your life or something, cause it reads like a bad caraicature some D-grade writer wrote for their awful sitcom that has a 15 second bit about idiots on the internet.

Found the libtard. What's it like being a brainwashed lemming?

I know you're idiot because you can't think of a good insult. Those are rehashed boring phrases you've picked up, maybe by osmosis but that's probably giving too much credit to your brain. Be creative, have an original thought, dig deep and try to be mean to me. Not based on your assumptions about libtards but on the things I've said in the past.

Good one! You got me good!

Fucking got him right in the commie

You go sista!

You trolling?

Unironically: Sadly no. people like u/MrBallsackEyes make up the retarded right wing now.

Ironically: daddy defense team coming out strong

MUH 50% OF AMERICANS ARE RETARDED

Fuck off back to the dipshits, retard.

Somebody exactly like you came up with this political flyer: https://www.theroot.com/a-racist-flyer-might-cost-doug-jones-the-election-becau-1821065764

Democrats are pure human garbage.

As near as I can tell, Moore was heading for a loss until that obviously forged yearbook passage was released. The sheer audacity of it, with two different colored inks and an obvious change in handwriting, made it easy for anyone who wanted to vote for Moore to look at the whole thing and call it a hoax. So a Republican will win in a Republican state.

Don't fake evidence. Don't hype obviously faked evidence.
