Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

omg dude can't just say "yeah he was a business associate, so were a bunch of people" and then just get indignant about being acused of being a pedo

like that's it. his fanbase would just melt back into the default mode

but instead he's alienating his most frothing, loyal, conspiracy brained supporters by just telling them they are all fools and suckers. fools and suckers for either believing him or being "tricked" by the dems (which by extension means Trump and co were tricked for like almost a decade)

you've demolished all the bridges donny boy. closed the paths out. sure you'll wiggle out of whatever but when you have Rogan acolytes calling the DSA the only true america first party you might have done fucked up

What are they going to do, not vote for him? Lmao

Really?

I will say, I have plenty of friends who are Rogan heads…the Rogan bloc is amenable to whichever group will court them and the republicans are really huffing their own farts if they think these people are solidly their base.

I could easily see them get radicalized towards more left wing positions

[–] Des@hexbear.net 10 points 5 days ago (1 children)

he'll never lose his true fanbase, the actual MAGA types, no. some might disengage and get lazy about electoralism. but yeah the Rogan libertarians will probably split: some will disengage, some go back to reason.com libertarianism to fret, and some remember their stint as Bernie bros but just like the Rogan sphere podcaster, see Mamdani as the new model of politically giving a shit.

i mean he's got fit, he's effortlessly masculine, has a classically beautiful wife, more radical then Bernie (for now..), and the State (and by extension, the Elites) are all united against him. dems hate him, which makes him anti-woke.

one thing I agree with Sam Seder on is that when these guys say "woke" they mean "weak".

it will be the subset that are the least racist, most amenable to pro-Palestine/anti-Zionism, and disillusioned with capitalism. it will be those mythical "white men" the dems want but they don't really want

Also he's really good at talking. Check out his interview if you haven't already

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Really?

I think she's referring to a recent interview where I think it was Charlemagne Tha God who was making that argument.

It is frustrating the see the maga base crumbling and still have blue no matter who folks not helping them open their eyes even further.

[–] Des@hexbear.net 1 points 3 days ago

one thing that sets liberals apart from leftists is they just see revenge, leftists see opportunity. it's why liberalism is utterly stagnant

making a big collage of his buddy-buddy pics with epstien and going up to him like "this you?"

“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump booms from a speakerphone. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”

Lmao alright, nah, there’s no way these chuds actually care about the Epstein controversy

[–] OldSoulHippie@hexbear.net 16 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It wouldn't matter. He would just walk out of the interview and we would wake up to news that crickets are spreading whooping cough and we can't go outside anymore.

Who is the last person to shrivel into a corncob because of a picture of them doing something not great? Al Franken?

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 13 points 5 days ago

Then his groveling to Bibi and isntrael with Little St. James Island building color coded with the Pissreal flag, Epstein obvious Pissreal connections.

President Pedo

[–] HarryLime@hexbear.net 28 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I know this point has been made, but he was saying they don't exist a week ago. This is the worst possible answer he could give, like it's designed to make him look guilty.

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 18 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

inconsistency and hypocrisy are a benefit in fascism or whatever internet-delenda-est

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 10 points 5 days ago

He had been saying for much longer that "there's a lot of fake stuff in there," though. Probably because he understood that his connection was obvious and wanted a backdoor for himself.

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 27 points 5 days ago

I can't believe Obungler used the Jade Helm time machine to trick Trump to hang out with Epstein at parties.

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 16 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I have no doubt he'll wriggle out of this one again because this has been obvious for years, but I do wonder specifically what mental gymnastics the chuds will come up with to rationalize this. Last time it was that he's a "white hat" pedophile, who was out to expose the others, so it'll have to be something even stupider.

[–] gueybana@hexbear.net 7 points 5 days ago

It’s stretched so far beyond parody at this point but it’ll truly be the canary in the coalmine if this response does absolutely nothing to hurt Ttump and the conservative government.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 14 points 5 days ago

This is really funny

[–] William_Nilliam@hexbear.net 8 points 5 days ago

in the cool reality with falgsc they don't have to ask why the president was such good friends with The Pedophile
