Utterly fucking incredible. No one said anything, posted any memes. He just posted this out of the blue. Just fucking incredible. They will march in to hell screaming at everyone around them for not voting hard enough. Like just what the fuck is this? Who is this for, now, in 2024, after this debate? What do they think posting this bullshit will accomplish? Biden just spent 90 minutes shitting himself on stage and failing to finish sentences and their immediate move is to scold people before they even start saying the emperor has no clothes?

    If they’ve got a platter of shit as an option, their chicken is going to be an E. coli risk.

    The rational response is to say “I’m not hungry.”

    “the chicken is stuffed with butter and then braised in the blood of a hundred thousand conscripts maimed and slaughtered to ensure europe is forever dependent on american natural gas supplies,” the flight attendant says. “it’s chicken kyiv. it comes with your choice of geno-side.”

    the chicken is also covered in shit and stuffed with broken glass, but the liberals keep insisting that it’s the better choice because there’s still some chicken in there. somewhere

      Would you rather eat the dish that is 100% platter of shit with broken glass in it or the dish that is 99% platter of shit with broken glass in it and 1% chicken?

      Um, no thank you.

        No one seems to care about the crime bill or think that reflects on his character, goals, and core personality and I don’t understand why they don’t care and don’t seem to have ever care.

    The desperate need to always make analogies just to defend Biden is something else. Analogies should only be used if they add something to make understanding the subject easier. But it also assumes the other side is not intelligent enough to understand the subject in the first place.

    You wouldn’t use analogies to explain the newest Quantum mechanics to Einstein. You could use them to introduce them to a person with a poor math/physics background maybe. But at the end you wouldn’t assume the person who “kind of gets it” through an analogy to actualy come out knowing about said topic. You teach an analogy to a kid to help, you don’t make the analogy the entire subject and replace the actual topic.

    So yeah, all these dipshits using analogies are just saying “hey you pathetic manchild that doesn’t understand how democracy is supposed to work, here let me dumb it down for you all why you need to vote for my candidate. So imagine a restaurant menu…”

    What do they expect? A bow and a thank you mr democrat asshole I understand democracy now and will proceed to vote for the person you just told me to. The only response should rather be a punch in their face.

      You know maybe that’s it? Maybe they think opposition to genocide is some kind of petulant childish stupidity and they “really” understand politics

      Yeah I’ve been around the block a few times and seeing any sort of analogy in an argument makes me just kinda disregard it. Just talk about the real thing. It isn’t that hard.

      Secondarily I would say it is not a good argumentative tactic to play in the analogy’s world to show why it’s a dumb analogy. Just reject analogies on their face.

    Every election cycle liberals pull out the obnoxious food analogies. debord-tired

    “Hillary is like a hamburger and Trump is like a big stinky poo turd. I know some of you wanted pizza but they don’t serve pizza so it’s either the hamburger or the smelly poo big poopy turd of shit poop!!!” so-true

    Then you ask did any of the glass get in the chicken as well and they tell you yes and so you choose to obviously not eat anything on the plane because they’re serving shit with glass in it

      Also the chicken is rotten and not actually a chicken, but a less stinky platter of shit that the attendant insists on calling a “chicken” and if you point out its shit she’ll call you ableist or a transphobe. If you skip the meal she’ll decapitate you. If you decide on a third dish she calls you unrealistic and say you can’t have it

      The way no one seems to care at all about the genocide in Yemen continues to just be this fucking thorn stuck in my mind that never stops hurting. Something went terribly wrong at some point for all these supposed defenders of human rights to be completely indifferent to the brutal murder of somewehre between two and four hundred thousand people, many of them children, killed with starvation and dehydration. And countless more, especially children, permanently harmed and crippled by malnutrition. It’s wrong. People should care.

    not shown in this metaphor: everyone around you who got the chicken is shitting their pants waiting for the bathroom, which is coincidentally where they’re getting the shit for the other meal from

      This is my favourite counter to the dumb metaphor.

      Libs really are just ordering the chicken instead of immediately realising none of the food could possible by trustworthy, and the whole airline is fundamentally flawed for getting to this point.

      “Chicken please.” this-is-fine

    Imagine being on an airplane that’s boarding. It’s an unusual airliner. It only has one pilot. The pilot’s name is Biden. Before you got on board - you happened to sit next to him for an hour in the airport. And you watched him and he was just like he was on the debate stage. It would be cause for worry and you’d want off that plane. The meal would be the least of your worries.
