I thought freedom fries was the dumbest thing i've ever seen out of washington... well until now. 4 more years of this BTW.
Fun fact about World War One, the US started calling Sauerkraut by the name of Liberty Cabbage. We don't have fresh ideas.
The Gulf of Liberty Cabbage
Welp, I know which name I'm going with.
I'm going with Gulf of Mexico, with Gulfy McGulfface being a close second option.
I'm in NZ. Google maps says its Gulf of Mexico (because that's its fricking name).
Hopefully, it's only 4 more years.
if we're not in some kinda post apocalyptic scenario in 4 years i'll be pleasantly surprised
That's the shit that has me up all night.. Fricking lunatics have escaped the asylum again, but this time they're prepared. This ain't "Joker 2" muthafricka!
Four years, give or take a /r/collapse
This was only the first week. ugh
4 more years so far...
Yup. Just the first week. Im so sick of the darn trump show and it doesn't seem there is a way to unsubscribe, disconnect, turn the channel, unplug the tv etc. His brand of stupidity is fricking everywhere.
4? Try 8 when vance gets elected
Hopefully you'll still have a country that resembles the US in 4 years.
They ruined the Dixie Chicks' career because they spoke out. Turns out we should trust some musicians for our foreign policy.
Just because some are sometimes right doesn't mean we should generally trust musicians.
The overwhelming majority of musicians are not geopolitics experts, or at all informed on political issues.
The fact that we constantly expect celebrities to chime in on issues they have no expertise in is one of the reasons politics is so toxic and polarised today. It's contributed to the dumbing down of political discourse.
But also, being a musician does not disqualify you from having and expressing political opinions, nor does it guarantee that you are politically illiterate.
The world might be a better place if pop artists were more inclined to sing about politics than vague romantic notions.
real big "shut up and dribble" vibes coming from that dude
: Rich people are out of touch and have no idea about reality or what the common people are going through! Guillotine them all!
: Actually, more celebrities should lecture people on how to be hecking good human beans, after all they all agree with me. Tee hee!
The funny part to me is that "America" isn't even the name of our country, it's the name of the continent. We're the United States. 'Gulf of the Americas' kind of makes sense, but has nothing to do with the United States of America.
I could see that if it was the gulf of USA but Mexico is part of America
In Florida we just call it "the gulf".
Not any more - we'll be sure to add "of Mexico" for clarity from now on.
Seems confusing. How do you know which gulf you're talking about?
What an absolutely brilliant question. Your mother must be so proud of you. Do you go poo poo on your own too? Awwwwwww.
Woosh
Awwww, not yet? You'll get there.
They are so angry they just attack each other for no reason
Everyone who matters will call it the Gulf of Mexico, at least.
I hate to break it to you but everyone matters, not just those that agree with you. That was made very evident with the election. Just because in your mind you can just tell yourself other people don't matter, they actually do. And sadly, their decisions can frick up the world for you.
I think he/she might mean those in communities that actually deal with the Gulf like those in the scientific communities, not just the average layman.
Sure, that's perfectly possible. However, that doesn't counter my point at all. The entire idea that some matter, and some don't, is how we ended up in this mess in the first place. It turns out, everyone actually does, and if you don't believe that, your world can get pretty fricked up by that disbelief.
Give up brother this place is like a blindfolded circlejerk
Leftists purity checking each other over things that aren't even disagreements
Americans don't matter to me any more.
What irrelevant country are you from?
The great thing about American exceptionalism is that it can never have any negative consequences of any kind. Good luck with that!
I will. Frick that nazi. Gulf Of Mexico.
Oh so you like deadnaming now, interesting.
This is exactly the kind of high-level international trolling we need. Show Trump for the pathetic man-child that he is.
: So you guys agree that we should be same the country then!
But _I_ don't desire they use that name, and I'm American. Can we, like, petition Google to not be punks who do what the totalitarian wants?
Lmao. The Google CEO was front row at Trump's inauguration. Best of luck
Maybe constantly bitching about CEOs/rich people/important people even when they're on your side could have some unfortunate consequences?
Californian checking in. It's the Gulf of Mexico.
Google is the scariest of all tech companies. They are essentially our library. They have the ability to manipulate the narrative on a different level. For the vast majority they are our dictionary, our encyclopedia, our Library of Alexandria. They are THE reference for day to day life. Our last arbiter of truth.
We are already aware that weighted searches are for sale.. but them kissing the ring is scarier than social media techs doing so. By my estimation, at least.
That's why I periodically download wikipedia
Stop being anti-corporations and maybe they'll like your side too
Why do people think this ends when trump ends? It doesn't. It's being set up so it doesn't. We will get Vance, who is more cognizant and has the potential to be worse.
True but, I don't think anyone but Trump has what it takes to rile up the morons enough to get out and vote.
It's comments like this that make me think you people still do not understand the magnitude of this election.
Every single lever of power in the government that matters is now firmly controlled by people who are perfectly fine cheating in broad daylight with a violent mob to maintain that power.
They are not going to let themselves be voted out of that power.
Maybe choose an actual candidate next time instead of an identity checklist?
I think his cult followers can absolutely be manipulated, post Trump Death, into turning on themselves. I don't think they're accept the Charisma vacuum as the next leader.
I think the internal MAGA civil war will tear the movement apart.
You just have to hope that they haven't destroyed democracy too much post that point.
Like how you guys lost the election?
People want to believe that Trump is pulling the strings. They don't want to believe that there's a group of people putting EOs on his desk to sign without reading
Fricking wingcucks lmao
Now factor in the very best healthcare that money can't buy.
COVID would have killed him if he wasn't POTUS. Sad this dude keeps escaping death. It's always the evil ones that live the longest. :/
Even the best medicine can't do miracles.
Ah, frick, who am I kidding, modern medicine is a miracle. We're fricked.
[Karma] Doesn't exist.
I mean⦠it does. You'll see. And even if you don't believe, when bad things happen, I can assure you us real Americans will be cheering
I'm a real American too but I don't believe karma is an actual thing. If it were true, why would such monstrosities be done to innocent people over the course of history? What did they ALL do to deserve slavery/torture/murder/r*pe/genocide?
I meant real in the sense cheering for karma to happen to dotard. You are also assuming you know exactly how something you don't believe in actually works. Bold assumption
Do you know exactly how it works then?
I know what I believe, but is it what religious adherents believe? No, don't think so.
How is that any different than what I said?
Cause I think my version is real or is to me at least. You said none of it is real.
Hippie with exotic beliefs meets edgy reddit atheist. The argument goes past this point btw
Regarding the BMI, I get the impression he's been taking Ozempic or something. He seems to have been slowly thinning out
Maybe but elderly people often thin out for a variety of reasons, most of which are not good.
Yeah that's usually a sign of deaths door
