Things that made you laugh today (Political Version)

[Alfster]

Pretty sure his motto is, "elections have consequences", which is kinda funny when you watch all these court cases thrown out.

I'd take it a bit more serious if they were screaming foul across the country, but nope. The fraud was done so well that it's undetectable, and only in these 4 states that they are desperate to win.

I still find it amazing that people like bick or back or whatever call utump or Republicans snowflakes when by deifintion it 100 percent explains the left.

Both sides are full of snowflakes. The right is currently behaving exactly like the left did in 2016.

Speaking of needing an education.

In before you claim you have multiple PhD's from Stanford.. but really dropped out of MCAD.

My graduate degree seems to really upset you.

Which is funny- I'm the one who had to do all of the work and then pay off all of the loans.

Right. Meanwhile let's talk about how the right is handling the recent election- where they heavily outperformed all of the polls, shrunk the Democratic advantage in the House, probably kept the Senate despite expectations to the contrary, and ended up taking over more State legislatures instead of losing them as expected:

Oh, they're calling on the President to invoke the Insurrection Act to use military force to keep Trump in office. The literal definition of a military coup, by the way:

An 1807 law invoked only in the most violent circumstances is now a rallying cry for the MAGA-ites most committed to the fantasy that Donald Trump will never leave office.

The law, the Insurrection Act, allows the president to deploy troops to suppress domestic uprisings — not to overturn elections.

But that hasn’t stopped the act from becoming a buzzword and cure-all for prominent MAGA figures like Sidney Powell and Lin Wood, two prominent pro-Trump attorneys leading efforts to overturn the 2020 election, and even one North Carolina state lawmaker. Others like Michael Flynn, Trump’s first national security adviser who was recently pardoned for lying to the FBI, have made adjacent calls for Trump to impose martial law. The ideas have circulated in pro-Trump outlets and were being discussed over the weekend among the thousands of MAGA protesters who descended on state capitols and the Supreme Court to falsely claim Trump had won the election.

And this is after the 55 Court cases that were filed to try to invalidate millions of votes (but, you know, only in states Trump lost) and attempts to get State Legislatures to step in and illegally replace their State's electors with Trump electors who would defy the will of the people.


Sorry, what was that about the left being the snowflakes?

Sorry I don't remember the left trying to stage a literal Coup to overturn the election. No one on the left was pushing for Obama to use the US Military to illegally install Clinton as President. They didn't file lawsuits asking Courts to throw out millions of votes, and they didn't attack State Election Officials for certifying valid election counts nor were they trying to force/bribe State Legislatures to illegally change the slate of electors to vote against the will of the people.

I don't remember the left taking to the streets with weapons to protest Nor do I remember any attempts to kidnap Governors by left-wing militias.

So let's stop playing the false equivalency game. Playing that game normalizes some extremely dark and dangerous behavior- these people are literally trying to take down a democracy.

The only saving grace so far is that they're bad at it.

I recall 3 years worth of it. And literal riots.

[Parkbandit]

Ah yes, I remember your repeated calls for civility last election and the previous four years.

You must be lost again... where did I say I wanted civility? I was speaking to Backlash and his ilk (which, since 2016 is you as well) that waged a war on anyone who didn't vote their way.. then, when their candidate "won", are all like "Let's be friends again!"

Wait.. weren't you screaming foul about Russia in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020?

Not at all. Pathological liars and frauds just irritate me. I like to call them out.

Anyone can make up stories on the Internet.

Do you want to confirm or deny that you are indeed Andraste?
