Oh, for sure. It's just that there's no actual cleavage in the picture. And the meme is about cleavage. It's not as if there aren't millions of images that would've suited the meme better. I can't fathom the thinking behind selecting this image, unless the person making it either didn't know what cleavage was, or maybe thought a picture with cleavage was too ribald for a meme about cleavage.

Sure there were Russian bots. Of course there was billionaire fuckery. That's been the case every cycle for decades. Do you honestly believe that Democrats lost exclusively because of these things? And furthermore, that nobody should critique their performance or policies, because that constitutes sowing apathy? Weeks after the fucking election? That's the dumbest fucking thing I ever heard.

The election is over. Democrats failed spectacularly. Now is the time for criticism and accountability. If not now, when? We're all just supposed to pretend that Harris ran a great campaign? Are you familiar with the concept of learning from failure? I was beating this drum myself before the election—you know, when it actually made sense. Now it just smacks of sticking your fingers in your ears.

I feel like whoever made this didn't really know what cleavage was.

Perhaps the Balrog underestimated Gandalf, thinking it could cast him into the abyss, then fly back up to deal with the rest of the Fellowship. Alternatively, maybe it calculated that its best chance of defeating the wizard was to grapple with him at close quarters. Either way, the Balrog falling doesn't necessarily mean that it wasn't capable of flight.

I mean, it's worth a shot.

But.. you don't use butter to make bread. Flour and water, maybe some yeast. If you're using butter to make dough, then it's some kind of pastry.

Oh, and you can forget about wearing any kind of wrap-around shades! Might as well put on a red hat. I feel your pain.

Can you see that you're arguing against fictitious strawmen? You seem to be operating under the delusion that for all the dumb normies who have "bought into" the existing two-party system, politics is just a game that they play without understanding. You've reduced them all to NPC's who lack the capacity to reason; obviously their only motivation could be mindless conformity to their "team".

Is it your contention that it doesn't matter what party controls the branches of government, because they're both the same? While this is factually inaccurate, it would at least be in line with the actions you're advocating. Speaking of which, how exactly do you imagine a "protest" vote would deny the subsequently elected government legitimacy? What force and effect do you foresee that action producing? Because anyone with a working knowledge of our electoral system can tell you that the only discernable result will be the empowerment of the minority party, which in this case seeks a fascist overthrow of our democratic system.

What you're doing here is applying shallow, childish logic to a complex and nuanced problem, while pretending to have some high-minded motivations which—if they exist at all—clearly haven't been thought through.

If the last person who talked to him was Stephen Miller, it probably is. To paraphrase George Burns, putting an idea into his head is like putting a basketball into a thimble.

Literally nobody is saying this. You're full of shit.

Every single article about "gen x" this or "gen z" that is 100% bullshit. Stop reposting this garbage.
