This would be a funny bit if you weren't being sincere.
It's no secret that the majority of all these "But Biden Bad" posts are written by right-wingers trying to sway voter opinions and shift attention away from Trump's evilness. It's the same playbook as in the run-up to the 2020 election.
Lol. Yeah, and my barber is a secret CIA agent and the checkout clerk at the grocery was secretly a lizard person, of course I don't have a shred of evidence and there's no evidence that could falsify these beliefs, but it's consistent with my previous encounters with lizardfolk and CIA agents.
What a truly fascinating worldview you have.
Because right wingers never misrepresent themselves online but the lizard thing is totally plausible ;)
Obviously they do, but it's immediately transparent when they do (as it is in that tweet). Conservatives are too stupid to formulate a leftist criticism of Biden, they are incapable of entertaining an idea they don't agree with and their brains have been melted by a never-ending stream of culture war bullshit, and are just as incapable of comprehending politics outside of Democrats vs Republicans as y'all are. Even in the example you used, it's not impersonating a leftist, and it's not saying to stay home or vote third party, it's just doing digital blackface while voicing their own opinions.
Conservatives also frequently pretend that leftist criticism of Biden doesn't exist and will assume anyone on the left is automatically a Biden supporter. I have no idea how you square that with what you're saying.
Tbh I can only assume you've never met or interacted with a conservative, at least an American one. I can assure you they're completely politically illiterate and that you're vastly overestimating them.
I do appreciate the mental image of a couple of "good ol' boys" getting together for a book club and reading like Simone de Beauvoir in order to better infiltrate the left.
A minute ago it was absurd as the lizard thing, now it's obvious they do but only if it's painfully obvious... that goalpost is on wheels ;)
Thanks for that laugh!
CIA agents also exist and go undercover, that doesn't mean my barber is one.
k- but why does a lizard person work at a grocery store?
Gotta pay the bills somehow.
Yeah but couldn't they get a better job with all that lizard person knowledge? Thought they were usually in positions of power.
If you can imagine a conservative being able to convincingly pass themselves as a leftist then I can imagine a working class lizard person.
Your confidence is your blindness, but what else is new...
You seem awfully confident that my cashier isn't a lizard person and my barber isn't a CIA agent. Your confidence is your blindness.
Yeah I'd love to meet them.
And I'd love to meet these supposed conservatives masquerading as leftists on here, can you point me to one?
Tbh I really enjoy encountering them, it's always very funny to see what they think leftists believe, during the five minutes it takes for them to drop the act and start shouting racial slurs.
Still funny you said you thought I'd never met a conservative. Your opinion of them is as cartoonish as the image of you the smart conservatives sell the dumb ones.
Though tbh you don't make their jobs too difficult- you are kinda cartoonish.
Still very unconvinced you have.
Have fun with your unfalsifiable conspiracy theories, I guess.
Likewise!
COUNTER-THEORY: all of the 'but trump worse' posts are written by fascist dickheads trying to guarantee the palestinian genocide keeps happening
See how unfalsifiable that is? Almost not even worth saying, if you ask me
You are projecting so much
No, u?
Israel is the west's vehicle for imperialism in the middle east. It was created by the British through imperialist action and the US has been one of the biggest supporters since. So yes, the US has a huge say in what Israel can do because Israel owes its entire existence to the US and the west at large. If Israel feels so mighty and independent, then they're free to return the hundreds of billions in aid that we've given them and to stop receiving the billions we send them every single year and to not have us fight wars for them.
“Awww mummy Bidin make me de ow-ow! Pwease can you kiss de spot make de pain go bye bye??”
Israel is practically an American vassal state (or the other way lmfao all things considered) so the USA has a very material power in stopping it
Can we stick to the facts please?
Their (Israel) entire army would dissipate into thin air if the US stopped funding them. If the US wanted to, it could end the whole fiasco with a phone call.
"Were there not an Israel, the United States of America would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region." - Joe Biden, 1986
Ok now go back to Nick Fuentes to collect your pay.
Nick Fuentes is a Zionist.
I'm either very confused or you are very dumb.
It’s the first one
