seems like a good time to tell you that you’re one of my favorite posters, and this is a perfectly exemplary post 🎉🎉🎉🎉
hilarious and perfect, which is exactly what I’ve come to expect from you ❤️
Frank always has banger posts, hell yea
WHO’S SPEAKING NOW HUH?
WE’RE
NOTGOING BACK!
Remember when we thought he was hosed and were laughing about how he totally wasted this moment?
The thing is, he DID waste it.
And then Kamala hired Hillary’s campaign advisers, got rid of her 2 most popular slogans (We’re not going back + They are weird) and started hugging Dick Cheney’s right-wing daughter. Kamala’s campaign is somehow more embarrassing and incompetent than Hillary’s, and that’s saying something.
hired Hillary’s campaign advisers
Lol Lmao
they can’t keep getting away with it!
I choose to believe that it’s the happy birthday tweet that did her in
Nah, objectively and logically it was when she said must go.
The more I see this happening the more I believe it
It’s like The League of Shadows from Batman is working to sabotage everyone who says it.
my testicles said assad must go
My dog before I take him to the vet like:
It is known to the wise.
Alright I’m not gonna lie that’s funny as fuck lmao
I’m going to put the Assad meme on a material analysis, because I do think it has predictive power.
There are only two types of people in the West that know about Assad. Those two are (a) Leftists, and (b) So if you are bringing up Assad in a general conversation, those are by and large the only people who would care. That begs the question whenever Assad is brought up by a politician: “Who is your audience?” For politicians the audience is overwhelmingly for Government and their corporations. That means politicians are ignoring domestic issues like (for example…) 40MM Americans are in poverty or school shootings or that all basic goods shot up 20%+ in price in a few years. Those are hardly the only issues, but you must put all of them on the backburner to care about some leader in the Middle-East. Thus the meme, and the attention on Assad in general, is an excellent display of disconnect from actual living breathing people. As such, Assad-obsessed politicians generally lose to other politicians that focus more on their electorate.
tl;dr: is code for politicians ignoring domestic issues with the inevitable consequences
She really tried to get all the jinx’s
This was the easiest election to win for both parties, yet they kept fumbling
He wasted it, but he was playing against the Washington Generals in this election cycle.
Imagine still being correct 100 years after your death
not hard to imagine at this point
honestly seems like the most basic fucking sense, what is wrong with people
I’m on r/politics so I can enjoy some classic posts
Oh, wow, I haven’t visited r/politics in so many years. This is something else. A real blast of nostalgia.
Seeing these awful, smug people so lost and confused and angry almost makes me feel good. They have no idea what’s going on.
That is the only reason I reopened the sub. This was the first time for me in 8 years
I never left you, buddy.
Lenin lived, Lenin lives, Lenin will live
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I love how this meme has become a posting tradition every US election since the Chapo subreddit days.
Evergreen meme.
Can someone please explain it to me?
You see, the chapotraphouse subreddit was big supporters of Bernie Sanders so when he lost the Dem election in 2019 there was chaos there mostly coping and the most upvoted Post in that time became a Picture of Lenin saying “and were did that bring you? Back to me” and the MLs started talking about the failures of electoralism in liberal democracy and radicalising the bernie people
It was a fun time
I knew I first saw the meme there but is that actually its origin too?
Technically the quote “And where did that bring you? Back to me.” is a line Thanos says in Avenger’s Endgame. It became a larger meme that then birthed the chapo bit and you know the rest.
FUCK yes thank you I knew there was something else to it, I’ve seen exactly zero MCU shit since Iron Man so I forgot about that
I’ve seen exactly zero MCU shit since Iron Man
where’s mine? I’ve seen none of them 💅
Also Lenin kinda looks like Thanos in this picture. There’s a similar shot of Thanos, I think it’s actually the shot where he says that line.
Yep, in the 2019 bernie lost, sometime people reposted it but with bernie was the first time
I think I saw it in the 2016 election too
Haha that’s great, thanks.
Lenin was the man who pushed for the socialists in Russia to rise up in active revolution when nearly all other socialist leaders wanted to collaborate with the bourgeois government. He single-handedly made sure the October Revolution was launched an the USSR was created. He also spent lots of years arguing against other socialists who thought working inside electoral systems was the “right” way to bring about progressive changes.
Oh yeah, I know Lenin is based as fuck. I was just talking in terms of this meme, someone else explained it.
I’m fully expecting that people will get more angry on DEI/“ugly” characters and other bullshit cultural war than actually even attempt at becoming politically aware.
Thank you Mr Lenin, sir
I never left
bernie can still win actually
Time is a flat circle
