Your 2024 Presidential Election Thread

[Topkick]

A Shermanesque statement is a clear and direct statement by a potential political candidate indicating that he or she will not run for a particular office.

My head is probably already full of useless knowledge, but I'll make room for this because its cool.

LMAO

What am I missing? Where does this fit in our election? I'm confused.

The way I interpreted it is that this is related to the massive donation that the cofounder (I think?) of Netflix made to the Harris campaign.

And now, if the meme is accurate, social media is suppressing the negative reaction to this news, thereby further illustrating the political-media complex.

Timcast was discussing a Time article from Feb 21, that says the quiet part out loud. The change to the definition of Fascism to pin it to the "Far-Right", makes complete sense now. Because this is the literal Mussolini definition.

Originally, it referred to a totalitarian political movement linked with corporatism which existed in Italy from 1922 to 1943 under the leadership of Benito Mussolini.

There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs. Both surprises were the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans. The pact was formalized in a terse, little-noticed joint statement of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and AFL-CIO published on Election Day. Both sides would come to see it as a sort of implicit bargain–inspired by the summer’s massive, sometimes destructive racial-justice protests–in which the forces of labor came together with the forces of capital to keep the peace and oppose Trump’s assault on democracy.

Nailed it. It's political interference.

Which is funny if you look up the definition.

Fascism - Wikipedia
Definition of FASCISM
Fascism | Definition, Meaning, Characteristics, Examples, & History
What Is Fascism?
What is fascism? And what does it mean in 2020 America?

The last link mentions Trump because he's the focus of the article and even CBS admits Trump isn't fascist. Madeline Albright admits he isn't. CBS even admits both sides have fascist tendencies. People are throwing around a term academics can't agree upon and even sections of a liberal media agree Trump doesn't meet the definition...but they use it anyway.

It is a smear, that's all it is, but people are buying the lie.

Wait, wait, wait, you mean to tell me that people involved in politics are using words out of context to smear and dehumanize with as propaganda??????

Didn't 2007/2008 teach you guys anything about this? Nothing new. I bet it was way worse centuries ago and then some.

I saw on Twitter/X that there was some weirdness if you google "assassination attempt on..." that Trump never shows up. It's true.

I had to try this and you are 100% correct.

 

[Muppet]

It's fucking sad and disconcerting. No matter where you lie in regards to Trump, it was a fucking attempt, I'd be saying the same if it were any president/former/anyone under USSS sted.

Fucking sick world. Over fucking politics/political ideology. Retards.

Same.

Save the screen capture to use as evidence for using if being called on by the next sOuRcE commenter.

That's on Twitter. @Devildoc was saying that he read on Twitter that when using Google search, it doesn't show up.

For example, I typed all the way to "assassination attempt on trum" and it wanted to auto-complete to Truman on my Android phone and the only drop down options were for Truman. None for Trump.

Must be fake news - it worked juuuuuust fine for me...
