why does it say 2056 when this is already happening in 2024

[-] Squirrel@thelemmy.club 59 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Obnoxious, lying, seditious, narcissistic, rotting corpse vs. tired, confused, rotting corpse.

[-] Hoomod@lemmy.world 46 points 3 days ago

You forgot felon and rapist for the first one

[-] Squirrel@thelemmy.club 16 points 3 days ago

Ah, so I did. Not sure how I managed that, considering how relevant those points should be here.

[-] lath@lemmy.world 61 points 3 days ago

You discriminating against the dead? Lifeism enabler!

[-] Objection@lemmy.ml 20 points 3 days ago

MY rotting corpse just has some stiff joints, that's all.

But Slightly More Rotting Corpse has the better environmental policy which we'll need before the last remnant of Florida is fully swallowed by the sea in the next 4 years.

For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium, for whom a thousand souls die every day, for whom blood is drunk and flesh eaten. Human blood and human flesh – the stuff of which the Imperium is made.

Biden should be the last time the Democrats put forward a senile old man as their presidential nominee. Even if he wins this election, there will be another one to fight in 4 years time and the fash might not lose again.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

It should be the last time they put a candidate that nobody wants. Remember 2016? They don’t.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 4 points 2 days ago

That's not totally true, it's just who the ownership class wants. They're the only real people anyway, we're all just labor.

Old people primary voting: See if you can stop me choosing the next old man from your house! Ha!

I'm concerned about the less rotted corpse employing living humans. Sounds like nepotism to me.

Glad to see things will improve in the US!

Remember the good old days when we got to choose between a giant douche and a turd sandwich?

[-] ssj2marx@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 days ago

Lemmitors: You don't understand! I'm not voting for Slightly More Rotting Corpse, I'm voting for the Slightly More Rotting Corpse administration. Yes it's true that both of them support nuclear warfare along the Mexican border, but Rotting Corpse would be dropping more nukes with higher frequency on the climate refugees so we have to vote for the lesser evil.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 19 points 3 days ago

What would be the alternative

[-] force@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Shoot them

We're allowed to kill Abe Lincoln and JFK, why aren't we allowed to kill these guys? Why does Reagan get plot armor out of all the presidents? Who wrote this shit?

To be fair JFK getting shot was pretty epic though. He almost caused nuclear holocaust (although a more rabidly anti-communist president may have definitely caused nuclear holocaust), war crimed the South Vietnamese a ton, and stabilized Israel. RFK getting assassinated was less epic because that gave us Nixon

When the American populace as a whole is brainwashed into believing the only choices are red and blue, you have to accept that whining about it and voting green (or not voting) is going to accomplish nothing.

So make your colorful allegory and feel good about yourself on the internet. In the end, you are accomplishing less than the people you look down on who recognize the shitty reality of our situation.

[-] ssj2marx@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 days ago

If choosing red or blue doesn't work, and choosing another option also doesn't work, then what good does feeling self righteous about your decision to pick one over the other do? Unless you're suggesting that the shitty reality of our situation is that we're fucked and nothing will work at all no matter what - which is a level of defeatism that I don't think is very helpful either.

"Rotting" is a state that won't last past the middle 30s. By 2056 they'll be fully decomposed.

[-] Tixanou@lemm.ee 33 points 3 days ago
[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 days ago

A friend of mine just sent me a Facebook link that says that decomposed candidate #2 was caught taking bribes from corporations ...... and that they're a communist.

[-] acetanilide@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

They both start with C, so it sounds legit.

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 days ago

Who do you want running the country? The litch or the revenant?

[-] ssm 10 points 3 days ago

If you've ever watched Overlord you'd know the dead deserve to rule over the living

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Anime has a disgustingly right wing bent, which should be expected from a country that's been run by the right since 1955 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1955_System.

[-] rockerface@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

It's almost like the main cast is supposed to be the bad guys

[-] ssm 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I've only finished the anime up to season 4, but I don't think the theme is that "Nazarick is evil and evil skeleton overlord is fun", but rather "do the ends justify the means Nazarick takes", given that Ainz wants to create a utopia where all races live in harmony. It's very interesting writing given how much time and humanity is given to side characters that are eventually destroyed or imperialized by Nazarick.

[-] rockerface@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

They are somewhat nuanced and ideologically motivated bad guys, I'll give you that. And it does make the anime interesting, especially compared to your standard isekai/VRMMO anime

For someone that hates the right you make a lot of generalizations. Every country with power is a mess politically, but that says nothing about their art.
