It needs a big club. Right upside the heads

Remember this meeting? https://www.politico.com/story/2018/12/11/trump-pelosi-schumer-meeting-oval-1056862

Picture is from 2017.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 17 hours ago

Ahah, that's relevant. Though the only difference this time will probably be Schumer having less facetime because the Democrats having vastly less power in Congress/the Senate. Nobody in the room is making any decision that would meaningfully worsen their conditions or those of anyone whose conditions they care about.

I'd like the context of photo please. I am not history-learned. Only spark-notes-of-history-acquainted.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not sure of the origin of the photo but it's been around for some years now as a meme showing how media can be manipulative.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Ah I understand now. I filtered out the two photos on the side, figuring they were just an aesthetic choice.

Not sure about baldy

Man, Armagastan is such an accurate name for what America is these days.

It even eludes towards Armageddon, it's perfect.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 17 hours ago

Baldy looks like it might be General John Kelly... Even though most pictures of him have some hair.

Picture looks adversarial af. Caption: They're all friends.

Yeah, okay.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Trump's embracing Schumer here, I'd rate this 0% adversarial because I'm a sicko who's seen their body language/interactions which were well documented during the first Trump admin.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 17 hours ago

Schumer has got a scolding finger up in the way of the attempted nonconsensual embrace.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

I'm sure a certain narrative will be curated here.

Being cordial at work: ITS A CONSPIRACY

[–] [email protected] 8 points 17 hours ago

This is just your average liberal "democracy" where both the ruling parties work for their corporate backers. What seems like a "conspiracy" here?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago

You didn't even try with that one. You ok, kiddo?

Website doesn't exist or something.
