Ah yes, the constitutional republic whose constitution was specifically amended to make Putin President-For-Life and where opposition figures are regularly jailed or killed. NK and Congo are democracies too, right?

E: Minor note, the constitutional amendment was to change terms from 4 to 6 yrs. The limit on consecutive terms still remains but lol if you think that Putin just hands over the keys and walks away.

Exploration is ill-advised.
Putin and his No 2 literally play swapsies with the President and Prime Minister positions to get around term limits.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

reminder that when richard spencer got punched out, a small section of the brave hero's face was briefly visible, showing facial hair above the lips

and a /pol/ poster compared that face with a scat porn star that he was familiar with, and concluded that they were the one and the same

Inescapable Duck posted:

Also the scat porn star was dead.

:lol: I remember seeing the image supposedly linking the puncher and the scat eater. I thought what are the odds that they would be one in the same? Sounds like someone was mad their master race delegate was humiliated on national television. Also, why would you say that your spokesperson was punched by someone who's fetish was eating poo poo? A powerful self own.

Edit: whoops, spelling. Made is not the same as mad :mad:

Eric Garland absolutely belongs in this thread. He's one of the big guys in this weird xenophobic democrat surge coming up where they basically take right wing anti arab talking points and just cross out 'arab' and rewrite 'russian'.

Eric is my favorite, though, because he gets The Most Mad Online.

He's like that inept but enthusiastic soldier that you don't really want on your side, so you give him a daring solo mission to lead a charge out of the trenches and watch as he gets cut down in a hail of gunfire. Except every day.

Inescapable Duck posted:

90% of the Gamergate people whine and scream about didn't really exist until they kept insisting it did, given the alt-right's entire thing is to become the strawman that the culture warriors were afraid of, 'triggering snowflakes' as radicalised nazi nerds. And even then they stopped pretending to care about games pretty quickly. Everyone involved at the start of the mess is completely irrelevant now; all the slacktivist journos either got exposed as various degrees of grifters and sex predators or got sucked into the Hillary campaign and usually contracted terminal brainworms from it, while the people pushing GG either got bored and hosed off or was a grifter the entire time, or was an existing /pol/tard who jumped on the bandwagon.

There's a reason pretty much everyone else on the internet quickly concluded 'Anyone who cares about Gamergate either way is equally insane and toxic' and were pretty much correct. The difference between the progressive slacktivists imploded when the establishment abandoned them, while the alt-right is too horrible to die easily because once you've gone Nazi you can't go back.

Lmao I can't believe people still trot out lines like this. That's right up there with "the left turned us into nazis by calling us nazis".

something like that yeah

chapman tried to create a right-wing street army called the Fraternal Order of Alt-Knights or FOAK but it didn't go anywhere because they looked like huge dorks



funny, it reminded me of of the patriotic knights corps in the anime LOTGH which was under the control of the secretary of defense.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy1uU-FjtPo&t=656s

the fact chapman has been able to travel around in the country to violent protests while being an ex-con under probation without having a job makes me think he could be working for / getting money from someone. anyways some kid tried to actually crowdfund a FOAK travel bus but couldn't raise enough money
