The very first thing I learned about Kamala was that she’s a prosecutor, and I immediately told my wife I’m not voting for a ticket with a prosecutor on it. I guess I’m a little different than these nerds.
Yeah its crazy to see people using “prosecutor” as a compliment, Americans are the most brainwashed people on earth

I hadn’t heard about this one
Honestly thinking this was believable, let alone likely, shows a lot about Harris.
Naw it shows you shouldn’t listen to sentient beans. Ima still look for it, though. It’s probably me not remembering.
where did you hear this? that doesn’t match the details of any of the 13 victims of the state of california since it resumed murdering people by death penalty in 1992, and prior to that harris wasn’t a prosecutor, yet.
she’s a ghoul, to be sure, and defended the constitutionality of the death penalty in california on the grounds that it takes too long to deliver “justice” to victims by murdering people, rather than for any reason that would betray a shred of humanity. but i don’t think this particular story of yours is true.

I think he is talking about this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Arridy
Notably, this man was executed in 1939thanks, i certainly believe the u.s. would do that, but i couldn’t find anything that harris was involved in
For his last meal, Rector requested and received a steak, fried chicken, cherry Kool-Aid, and pecan pie. As noted above, Rector left the pie on the side of the tray, telling the corrections officers who came to take him to the execution chamber that he was “saving it for later.”
…
Despite Rector’s mental state, then-Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton made a point of returning to Arkansas to oversee Rector’s January 24, 1992, execution during the 1992 U.S. presidential election campaign.
What the fuck? I’m trying to find info on this but Ben & Jerry’s is the only thing I can find about it.
Might even mixed up separate incidents, since I can’t find a hint of such an event. There’s a bunch of articles talking about her position of the death penalty, and they all mention the same things two: she promised not to pursue the death penalty as a DA and held to her promise even against a cop killer, but then as attorney general she appealed and won a case that initially ruled California’s death penalty unconstitutional.
Mod deleted my post to prevent me from living in shame. I’m now confused about it, too. I swear it was a talking point during the 2019 primaries going into the 2020 election. Now whenever I search, I can’t find anything that isn’t from 2024.
Maybe I’ve been bamboozled (again).
And “a felon” should never become President? Wot? Like Presidents don’t commit crimes, that people aren’t convicted unjustly, and that people become rehabilitated. This election has been really telling…
Prosecutors are always wholesome chungus 100 and only go after bad guys, right?
As a convicted drug felon whose local DA went on to become a corrupt governor, I reel at the “felon” pejorative that libs now seem to relish in. You can have a discussion with them about the PIC, the doubling of the prison population over a 2 decade period, and all sort of other stuff and they will nod along and even agree and then turn around and still assume all felons are bad and we need to support our cops. It’s the same shit with “terrorist” for those who lived through the Bush era and saw the term cynically deployed as cover for wars which saw a million people murdered and an entire region sent into disarray reflexively respond credulously whenever the term is used to justify a new genocidal campaign.
*Ha! I used the word “corrupt”, another loaded term that is often weaponized in the same manner. Really said governor was just doing standard governor stuff that most all politicians do in bourgeois democracy.
the so-called war on drugs is a conscription program to collect prison labor that are conveniently stripped of human rights and also made into social pariahs to maintain that status quo.Facts. I get so much pushback from libs about this though. I just hit em with
The purpose of a system is what it does
Someone dug up an old tweet from around the 2020 primaries where she was bragging about prosecuting sex criminals like Donald Trump.
No way she can use that now considering it could be directed at Democrats too, including one former and one current president.
If you say stuff like “did a Democracy” you probably aren’t mature enough to vote.
the good news is, voting doesn’t matter
I was actually thinking about this with like the terminally online reddit dorks that act like it’s “the most important election of our lives”. It only seems to be like that online but no one seems to care that the grass touchers are still gonna vote regardless. I could vote as hard as possible for Harris but I’m in motherfucking Texas. It’s going to Trump. I should be allowed to throw away my vote as a treat. Sorry the nerds that wanna call our system a “democracy” wanna make themselves mad about it.
i live in georgia where my “vote matters” but whether it’s trump or kamala it’s still gonna be more descent into fascism- kamala wasn’t gonna stop or slow that just like brandon’s worthless old bitch ass hasn’t. still gonna be no healthcare, no education, no nothing for normal ass working people like myself. just go do your job so the taxes you pay can be sent to israel so we can genocide all the palestinians and turn their homes into resorts for rich people. no duty to your constituents but these pieces of shit say if america crumbles the one thing that’ll remain is its support for israel. fuck them, resurrect that dude who took a shot at trump and teach him better aim. fuck amerikkka.
You nailed it. I don’t know why people are just ok with US citizens suffering while we spend trillions on the war machine that is used to kill brown kids in the middle east, but the amount of people that are ok with it kind of sickens me.
two of Yakub’s most egregious crimes
3 years ago: wow. Crime is a social construct, and maybe it’s not OK to make fun of someone for having the entire machine come down on them Now: I’d rather choose a hammer than a nail
Do people smugly post every time a couple votes for Trump? It’s so getting so old
tbh yeah trump people do this too. if you look at trump spaces instead of lib spaces its the same shit except instead of “did a democracy” trump morons probably say some shit like “did a MAGA”
uptruths for us doing a heckin magarino today!
The soy has breached containment
Why do millennials use that type of language? Adulting, did a thing, well that happened, etc.
It’s grinding my gears into quarks
Brain formed during the cringiest time of the internet
brain forms during the cringiest time of the internet
“So… that just happened!”
Just wait until the 40 year old zoomers are still using the same phrases. That will also be cringe.
Future rest home resident telling the CNA taking vitals that they got that Ohio rizz
Hate infant speak
Millennials must return to posting online like they’re writing an email.
It’s the only way.
Fuck that’s me 😭
“Grown-ass adult (usually man)” also pisses me off, especially when used as a peacocking attempt against supposedly not “grown-ass” adults. It instantly sounds tryhard to me.
Trickle down linguistics. That phrase was a staple of AAVE and white people stole it and made it cringe. A tale as old as time
im a millennial and i hate it too. i think some mfs just watched too much parks and rec and the office and now this is just how they are
choosing to blame joss whedon for this one
You aren’t a wholesome chungus man adulting? Bleh I feel dirty.
perpetual infantilisation by boomers coupled with early exposure to unregulated internet damaged us.
Leave us alone, bagging out generational groups for silly and harmless quirks is cringe. Making fun of millenial slang is just as dorky as millenials mocking gen z haircuts as if we didn’t do skinny jeans.
i also did early voting and i did not cast a ballot for a pro-genocide candidate.
This festive season, I’m voting for the police #Law&Order
Executive Producer Dick Wolf
20 minutes?!?
Early voting, majority white Republican county in Georgia (most gerrymandered, most corrupt election committee in the country). Try that in inner city Atlanta though
Crazy, early voting in My country takes like 5 minutes.
Gotta calculate the commute in.
gooning
yeah wtf??? It takes me like a couple of minutes
he missed an opportunity to say “the wife” to make this the most reddit post possible
Adding in a “play stupid games, win stupid prizes” would have been admissible too, or “_____ much?”
i also choose this guy’s wife
So brave!
How can you spend 20 minutes on early voting? Do you have to wait for them to layout and print your ballot first?
There’s three hour lines in some places to early vote.
Imagine waiting in line for HOURS to endorse… genocide
Queues, usually. Also sometimes the ballots here are like a meter long (not US)
“Adulting” is a very stupid name
sooooo um yeah… THAT just happaned 🤪
adulted…LIKE A BOSS
When I hear “adulting” I translate it to “providing unpaid reproductive labor” and I start Marxisting at them
What do you mean “First time voter!” cheers?? What is happening over there??
i didnt get that either. how would anyone know who’s a first time voter? and they’re cheering for them? whatttt
