The only way shit could possibly get better than this would be if we got all three of the very specific front-page obituaries that shall not be specifically named all happening in very short order.
This isn’t reddit, you’re allowed to name them. I’m guessing you wanted Trump, Miller, and Hegseth?
Hegseth derives all his power from Trump, so if Trump’s gone, he’s rendered irrelevant. None of the GOP establishment likes him. Miller can definitely continue to do damage on his own, though.
Don’t forget that scumbag that’s a life appointed judge now. Emil Bove or whatever his KGB lookin ass’s name is.
Alright alright that’s a fair point, the mods here aren’t corpofascist stooges like on Reddit.
- Trump, pedophile and protector of pedophiles.
- Putin, butcher of multitudes of his own people.
- Netanyahu, inflicting a Holocaust on Palestine.
That’s a good list!
I’ll name them, though I don’t condone violence since that almost always martyrs them and makes things worse. Just will be happy when they die of old age or McDonald’s.
USA edition:
- Trump
- Stephen Miller
- Russell Vought
Int’l edition:
- Trump
- Putin
- Xi
You missed one potential party who MAY be referenced in this context:
Netanyahu is literally inflicting a Holocaust upon the Palestinian people, and his would definitely appear on the front page.
too bad hakeem isnt any better.
It’s giving me the best kind of whiplash.
Oh cool, it’s my turn to find out someone died from a meme.
Glad I could help
Honestly this is just how I receive all my obituaries now
RIP ur grandma 420 swag

The dutch had an election last week and seemed to shift from extreme right to more middle ground parties, with “dutch trump” losing his majority and two center parties gaining loads of votes. Now they just need to find a way to form a working government with 4 (or even 5) different political parties needed for a majority.
That was such great news! I had already been bracing for an overtly racist NL, so happy they didn’t go that far right!
It’s sweet to see you all getting so happy like there’s hope.
If there wasn’t hope they would spend so much money on propaganda.
That does that even mean?
Part of the propaganda’s aim is to rob people of choices. Letting them think there is no hope is a key factor. The message overall is “this is the only way”, stamping out all other possibilities.
I don’t have much hope, but seeing the propaganda machine going full force for the NYC election actually made me feel like the was a chance for change. If the results didn’t matter or were obvious, they wouldn’t have cared to meddle.
Ahh I see. Thanks. My guess is he will never see office. I don’t know what they will do at this point, immigration thing or maybe just kill him. ~60 days is a long time from now.
Gosh, you are way more negative than me… fingers crossed that it doesn’t come to that
I’m not negative. My views are based on what the Republican Party has said and done. Expecting reality, even if it’s dark, doesn’t mean I’m negative.
Yeah man! Tell them losers!
Y’all are so uncool; living and shit. You should all be dead like me.
Username checks out
Haha. I love how sad y’all get when you’re reminded of reality.
Nobody ever managed anything by deciding up front it was impossible - that ensures defeat! If you’re not dead yet, it makes no sense to give up unless you choose to stay defeated? In which case OK, if it’s preferable to trying again? It sucks but you are allowed to lose all hope.
It might be a silly question but are you depressed? It’s hard not to feel pretty depressed about the state of the world, and I make no judgement on someone for feeling depressed. I would be more surprised to meet someone not depressed at this point! It happens to most of us.
Sorry to hear that you’ve lost any hope of having an impact yourself though, that would for sure feel pretty demoralising.
I hope you won’t give up forever - you are needed!
Fine, get excited. Just know at this rate, fascism is inevitable. Be happy for yesterday… but by tomorrow you’ll need to focus on the road ahead.
I’ve known fascism was inevitable since I started studying it as a teenager in about 1994. It’s also why I know it will be beaten, and why even then it will still need to be fought again after that. Fascism has probably been around forever in some form, long before it had this name.
You’re not convincing me with your combination of “there’s no hope” and “focus on the road ahead” though because it doesn’t seem like you believe in a road ahead?
I’m focused on the road today, not on what I think isn’t possible or is too late to bother about.
Fact is, you aren’t dead yet! So are you going to live it or spend your days trying to convince others to give up too?
Your position makes no sense unless you have already given up and accepted defeat prematurely… which is basically enabling fascism by default.
So now you know why fascism always gets a foothold! Kindly do something differently, then?
You’re right. I’ve already started the emigration process. I’m outa here. Good luck voting again!
I don’t live in the USA, but I have a lot of friends there so I watch with concern and try to support from afar. Good luck emigrating!
We get it, you’ve given up without putting up a fight.
I think you are very confused and just hearing what you want to hear. Which is also what I think you’re doing with this image.
Sounds like projection to me. You’re going out of your way to be a huge Negative Nancy. Like I said, you sound sus af.
You are absolutely entitled to have your opinion, but as I said in the other comment, your goal is to be mean to me because you don’t like the way I think. Everything you say from here on out is specifically tailored to get that dopamine you desire
I don’t like the way you think because you make no sense. And I’m only being mean to you because you’re actively trying to be destructive. Get it straight.
Defeatism is not helpful. Oppose what’s happening, don’t appease the executive. Allow there to be some way to betterment before all you can do is say ‘there’s no hope’
Actually, it’s quite helpful.
Defeatism : an attitude of accepting, expecting, or being resigned to defeat
How is that helpful. The dictionary definition has nothing regarding pushing back
That’s the word YOU choose to use, but “defeated” would only be true if we sit back and deny unpleasant truths.
Why do you feel the need to discourage people? You sound like a propagandist.
Sometimes discouragement is encouragement.
Please walk me through that logic of yours.
Why would I do that? We both know that you are just here to attack me, and no matter what sense I make your goal is to get dopamine.
As I thought, a propagandist trying to make sense out of nonsense.
Your comprehension skills are nonexistent
How am I supposed to comprehend something you’ve refused to explain? Your communication skills are nonexistent. 😂
is pelosi actually retiring? i thought she said a couple days ago in some interview that she’s considering running for reelection!
Dick Cheney was among the worst in an administration that disrespected human rights, international law, honesty, trustworthiness and set the US reputation as well as the fight against global warming way back.
Usually, that probably would have been my last thought of him.
Except, we have this crazy timeline. This timeline, in which he was able to stand out just by pointing out that he is still in favour of free elections. At least that was still a given in his time, even though the decision about the loss of Al Gore was considered controversial by some back then.
A low bar, a low bar indeed. But here we go, on this positive note: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6Nq9SpGzic
administration that disrespected human rights, international law, honesty, trustworthiness and set the US reputation as well as the fight against global warming way back.
Dick Cheney and George Bush the guy who said “fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame m–, you can’t get fooled again”.
I thought was the lowest point for America. But Trump made George Bush seem like a rocket scientist, and yearn for the good ol days.
I remember when I earnestly believed it would possible to have a country with an elected leader that was dumber than George bush.
I remember thinking in the lead up to Iraq war 2 that we had entered the post-truth era. Little did I know how much further we could go.
Didn’t he shoot a guy in the face once too? That was a fun time
Yep, but here’s the kicker. He got the guy he shot to apologize to him!
Not only did he shoot somebody in the face, he probably never apologized.
In a 2010 interview with The Washington Post, when asked if Cheney had apologized, Whittington declined to answer.[6]
An old San Francisco Bay Area emmigrant, I hadn’t heard about Pelosi. That’s such good news.
I really expected someone would have to pry her office titles from her cold dead hands the way we had to with Feinstein.
WAIT, PELOSI IS RETIRING TOO?
What a fan-fucking-tastic day!
looks like it’s a “rumor”
my guess is she’s realizing people don’t want a corrupt sack of bones representing them.
Like she gives a shit about the people
She probably just realized that she actually wants a retirement and to not end up like Dianne Feinstein.
We need to get the zombie voters out of congress desperately.
let me rephrase. She doesn’t want the humiliation of getting her ass primaried as people decide to fuck it all to hell; causing her to lose.
This way she can go out on her own terms and pretend like she’s not part of the problem while living off the shitloads of money she scammed from us.
If she had the capacity to make such profound insights she would have gotten out of the way a long time ago.
Mikie Sherril won as goober of NJ, too.
EDIT: Obligatory: DingDong the Dick IS DEAD
Tbf, Nancy didn’t announce her retirement. The voters finally did it for her.
Schumer needs to be next and Jeffries can join him for early bird specials and get the hell out of politics - this is a serious time and you have nothing to meet this moment.
Yes, Schumer next please.
I think Jeffries is a good rep but bad leader. He doesn’t need to retire, just let someone else take the leadership role.
Jeffries voting record on Israel is not good
On 4/20/2024 he voted yes on H.R.8034 to give $26.38 Billion in Additional Weapons “Aid” to Israel
9/23/2021 he voted yes on H.R. 5323 to give the Israeli government $1 billion more for their Iron Dome military system
7/23/2019 he didn’t vote on H.Res. 246, which passed - H.Res. 246 - Opposing Global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement targeting Israel
About damn time that old bitch retired.
Let’s hope every time one of the old shriveled turds kicks it things like this happen.
Dear diary, today wasn’t shit. Thanks!
