Is this like a cracker barrel viral advertising blitz?

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 13 points 1 day ago

Now, this is a conspiracy theory that I can get behind.

Man, it's hard to figure out what's more pathetic: their complete inability to process satire of the fact that they lost their shit this hard over a minimalist logo.

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The logo shit is manufactured to keep the news off of important shit; before that it was the Sydney Sweeny ad, next week it'll be something else

The minimalist logo, it's beyond stupid on a baseline. Don't get me wrong it looks kinda shit and I would've gone for the retro old West type face they originally had but still, throwing that level of piss fit over a damned logo is... Pathetic.

Yeah, I smile every time a Republican gets trolled by Newsom.

Honestly, a small chunk of the DNC should just be dedicated to keeping Republicans enthralled (with Newsom leading that subteam) while the rest of the Democrats do proper work organizing country wide for 2026.

Walz was much better at this. Newsom's "Look at me! I'm Trump!" routine is getting old quick.

[–] Awkwardparticle@programming.dev 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As long as there are people who don't get it, it will never get old.

Gavin Newsom is a PoS just like Donny. American democrats will do anything aside from fight against Trump's fascist regime.

All they can muster is some tweets.

[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (12 children)

Just like Donny.

You’ve got to be kidding me. I grew up in California during Newsom and Harris’ rise to power.

As uninspiring as they are, this approach has highlighted Trump’s ridiculous communication style in a way that has not been challenged to date.

We can dive into actual policy if you want.

He's a transphobe that would gladly put homeless people in a woodchipper.

Not american, I get this Gavin person is governor of California, but what's going on here?

[–] olosta@lemmy.world 135 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He is trolling Trump and his supporters by tweeting like trump. Cracker barrel is a chain that caters to more senior citizens. it has a very old school, very iconic logo that defied all trends in design for the last 50 years. They tried to change it, got a huge backlash, so they cancelled the change, Trump obviously claimed this as a personal victory, so Newsom did the same, and some people apparently can't detect trolling.

[–] RoquetteQueen@sh.itjust.works 25 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I just don't know enough about American politicians to be able to tell that it's a joke. With the stuff we see coming out of that country, it's not unreasonable to think that was a serious tweet.

[–] script_tease@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 days ago

Totally right. The subtlety here is that the source of the nonsense tweets this way. This particular account is mocking them by imitating. The hilarious part (at least for me and OP) is that the mockery went right over their heads.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 45 points 2 days ago

He's made a habit of trolling rebulicans by acting like Trump.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 41 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Gavin Newsom is trolling trump by saying and typing things just like trump. In this particular one, he took credit for something he knows wasn't him. A MAGA dude thought he meant it and called Newsom stupid. Newsom is saying the MAGAS are too stupid to get it. Newsom didn't even type all caps, he's probably tired of acting like a narcissist.

[–] SteelSky@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

His press office account does the all caps

Doing this a few times is funny, but Gavin is driving it into the ground.

He's so far above their heads they can't even see him.

Gavin out there playing 12D chess ...

[–] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Now I want cracker barrel breakfast.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

It's so fucking good. I had no idea that it was supposed to be a MAGAat hangout. I just go for the southern-style cooking.
