Also a content warning for a couple slurs, but the point from Patton Oswalt a while back is roughly the same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkKo1_RP_0c

Why are you saying that is if it's contradictory? I know that Russia invaded Ukraine. I can see the horrifying details by watching drone videos. I can know something generally without knowing the details
I assumed the meme is related to high prices decades ago: for example, I remember saving up allowances to buy Star Fox 64, which cost about 70 bucks in the late nineties.
Fascinating! What other countries do you think would start taking over places without immigration laws?
What certain countries? And are you alleging there is a coordinated "take over"?
I get that it's legally wrong, but do you think it's ethically wrong?
What if someone thinks the laws and systems in place aren't morally perfect?
Fascinating, isn't it? Does he think the Democrats just "hate all things fossil" so much that there's some kind of integer overflow and it flips negative, and oil businesses do just fine entirely by accident?
It's truly astounding how well right wing propaganda gets folks to believe things that are so completely at odds with his own lived experience. None of us are immune to propaganda, I know, but that whole statement is just...fascinating
Oh that's her, I was just trying to be insulting haha
Oh I'm totally agreed! It's all capitalist, jingoist garbage, same as it ever was.
Yeah, I was just on a flight and saw a dude across the aisle that was mainlining all the worst people on twitter. Space laser lady, the racist cat, the nazi automaker...this dude was just liking everything and replying frantically. He was flipping through everything and replying so quickly that I felt pity as much a loathing. It was absolutely pathetic. Dude's brain is melted.
That was the NFL being political though, this is them being patriotic...is what my troglodyte relatives will say.
Yeah, I'm not mad at my Iranian friends because of what their leaders do. I can't blame them for not starting a bloody uprising. It requires coordinated, collective action, and religious leaders and the uber rich work together to keep true change from happening. The same goes for the USA. Propaganda works, and it's keeping the people too divided to easily take serious action.
We need to help make change possible, not only chastise people for being trapped in oppressive systems.
