    Gotta love how a stupid laser eye edit is enough to send the fascists and their red painted collaborators into a spiraling rage about how easy it is to make them look like idiots.

    Biden didn’t even have to do anything for this one, it was all the morons doing it to themselves

    Funny enough I thought that was the Elon Musk real account initially 🤣, I could actually see him replying that.

      Some right wing pro-Trump conspiracy theorists think that Taylor Swift is some sort of government asset and that the Super Bowl was rigged in order for the Chiefs to win and that it’d be used as a platform for Taylor Swift to endorse Biden or brainwash viewers or something.

      This tweet is poking fun, like ‘everything is going according to plan’. But in real life the heavily favored team won, Swift was there because she’s the girlfriend of one of the players, and Taylor Swift fans are generally left-leaning because demographics

        A while back there was an incident where someone tried to say Fuck Biden and apparently it came out sounding like Brandon. So people started saying Brandon for their own pettyness where they thought saying Brandon and not just saying fuck Biden was more professional. (Cowards)

        Then Bidens office owned it after a photo came out where they cropped a blue and red background to look like Biden was just standing in front of just a red background (ominous, like the sith) instead of acting like a child and when they made “aggressive” moves or did something the republican party didn’t like they started using the term Dark Brandon that popped up online.

        Republicans were saying Swift was possibly going to endorse Biden, which is dumb, why would she split her income base while making millions/billions. So the Biden administration trolled them by saying “just like we planned it” insinuating that the game was rigged for Kansas City to win, so Swift would have a large platform to announce her support.

        As far as I know Swift has done nothing but tell people to make sure they vote…Republicans don’t like that, as Trump lost the majority vote in both elections he was in, but managed to still win the 2016 election due to the electorial college.

          A while back there was an incident where someone tried to say Fuck Biden and apparently it came out sounding like Brandon.

          Specifically a crowd chanted “fuck Joe Biden” and a person giving a media interview tried to play it off as them saying “Let’s go Brandon” because she was interviewing Brandon Brown live after he won a race.

          From their perspective, this was intentional to try to silence them so they ran with it, and hence the meme was born. The whole point is the media being cowardly and trying to silence them (in their eyes), not them being afraid to say what they mean. So it’s supposed to be a simultaneous jab at Biden and at the media.

      It would be if israel didn’t start bombing Rafah during the super bowl killing at least 67 people while israel played their $7million 30 second super bowl commercial about khamassss to brainwash Americans.

      “All according to plan” with the laser eyes Dark Brandon might not be the best timed meme after that.

      You know, or people who voted for Biden in the 2020 general election and won’t vote for him in 2024 for being a strike blocking, genocide supporting piece of shit.

      There’s a conspiracy theory that the Superbowl was rigged for the Chiefs so that Taylor Swift would somehow be able to throw more support to Biden. Some even said she’d come out during halftime and make a plug for him.

      It is referring to the rampant evil fascism that both the DNC and the RNC are engaging in.

      The legions of poli-sci neckbeards who actually do things in between octogenarian photo shoots are the same and aparently “The Party” only has edgy fascist violence to offer.

      Meanwhile, its been exactly 10 years and Flint Michigan still does not have potable water.

        Meanwhile, its been exactly 10 years and Flint Michigan still does not have potable water.

        https://www.mlive.com/news/flint/2023/12/latest-testing-shows-lead-in-flints-water-but-levels-remain-below-federal-threshold.html

        Lead levels were below the federal threshold in 2023, although they did rise in the second half of the year.

        Speaking as a chemical engineer, it is impossible to remove 100% of a contaminant, no matter what substance we’re talking about. All you can do is reduce the concentration until it’s in benign levels, which is what the federal thresholds are. I had a college class that briefly mentioned it once, but the standard iirc is effectively set at a value where the increased risk of injury is lower than everyday exposure risks.

        In other words – if you’re going to go all “both sides”, pick something which is an actually an issue, instead of spreading fake news and pontificating on it. If both sides are truly as equally bad as you say, you can surely find a different issue which is still a problem, instead of one that is largely solved. And hey, if this is the best you can find, maybe that says something about your claim.

          A “both sides” guy should be able to show that these two parties are equally bad in all ways, or that if one party is better for one aspect they are worse in a different aspect. I don’t think they can.

          Especially where we are at: one party committed an insurrection and is running the insurrectionist as their candidate. There is no room for acting like they’re equally bad, because the book burnings have already started.

          Hate Trump. Hate Republicans in general.

          Over the past 8 years, I have developed the same hate for Democrats.

          The 2 party system must be rejected.
