^^^Wait. What has Obama done in the political realm since he left office?^^^

I love how Hunter Biden first got a "sweetheart deal" TM, then a conservative leaning judge threw out the plea agreement so now he's being charged with a crime and Freep, talk radio and FOX are all "oh, sure, NOW they charge him. What took them so long" and that it's just another convoluted hosed up conspiracy to gently caress over Trump and save Joe Biden because Hunter Biden didn't get sent directly to Guantanamo or executed by a firing squad on live television and is, instead, going through a legal process.

Oddly, as has been pointed out, no mention of his 2nd amendment rights being violated either from the Guns All the Time people.

So they hate Obama for what they're imagining he's secretly doing behind the scenes instead of what he's actually done? Which is to largely stay out of the spotlight and not weigh in much of anything while continuing to be a black man with a funny name. Seriously, I think I've only seen him a couple of times since 2016 where he would campaign for a few people and I think occasionally gave a speech about racism or something but Obama has been about as off the radar as George W. Bush has.

I think Bill Clinton has had more screen time from a sheer percentage standpoint. Or Hillary for that matter.

What's their explanation for why Obama didn't do a Full-On Muslim Socialism, take everyone's guns, force us into Sharia Communist Law and lock patriots into FEMA camps? Ineptitude? Or did the mighty, mighty Freep brigade push back enough to stop it? He had two terms; and I remember his plan was to overturn the constitution or something so he could serve even more and be USA King for Life.

What a failure.

If you read these Freep threads from back when he was in office, this was all stuff they predicted. Do they ever go back and re-read the things they post and scratch their heads about it? I know I occasionally go back 5 or 10 years and look at stuff I wrote to remind myself I can be wrong and sometimes idiotic. Or drunk or high.

But this Freep Powder has been drying for like 25 years now I think.

Except the Party of Small Government LOVES Big Government for the most part.

They want the government to have the power to fast track the execution and jailing its own citizens. They want to fast track or even skip due process and the right to a trial. They want to cut the hands off of thieves like the Saudis do. They want the government to decide who votes and what books can be read in schools. They want the government to grant the police the right to murder unarmed suspects in the streets and to pass laws requiring the national anthem to be played where everyone must stand for it. They want litmus tests to be able to vote and actively make it harder to do. They want the government to institute forced prayer in schools.

They want to gun down people crossing our border and fund walls.

They LOVE Big Government, especially when it's mean and cruel.

This actually happens. I’m in Canada and I saw someone do it once (though it wasn’t a grocery store, it was at a Starbucks, I think the year they were mad at their cups). Stopped right at the door, bellowed Merry Christmas, and slunk off when nobody responded except to look up in confusion while someone else tried to come in around them.

It's almost like a SImpsons gag. Hey everyone! An old man is talking!

Trying to imagine this happening at a Wal Mart or some poo poo and I think in the Freeper's mind, they expect everyone to clap, point and yell "YEAH!" Then everyone bursts into song with "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" or some poo poo. I think I'd just yell it back him louder without a hint of irony, maybe with a thick southern accent.

I had an rear end in a top hat co-worker one time where were discussing favorite holidays (mine was Halloween) and, naturally, he had to go into "well, of course everyone all knows the true meaning of Christmas blah blah blah". It was performative and SOOO cringe worthy.

I don't pretend to understand transgender things or the medicine, psychology and science behind it but, the thing is, at the end of the day, it's absolutely no skin off my back whatsoever. I adjust my pronouns and that's the end of it. I don;t worry about sports, bathrooms and whatever horrible thing this is supposed to be inflicting on my life. I'm not rude to the few trans people I run across. I work with Alex, who's undergoing gender things with however those gender things work and it simply doesn't affect my day or how I go about it. I don't even really need to fully understand it.

I just have to not be an rear end in a top hat to people and it's pretty easy to try not to do that. Even to angry rednecks. That's the extent it and as far as my responsibility reaches. It's usually not difficult for me to not be an rear end in a top hat. Occasionally it is when I am deliberately provoked, but by and large, it's not people like ALex doing that. It's open carrying flag felators, MAGA's, giant F-150 trucks trying to kill me on the highways, Jesus freaks who tell me I'm going to hell for being bisexual and people who think I drink the blood of babies and support pedophelia.

If I were to make a 100 item list of poo poo that needs fixing in this country, Alex and everyone else like them would be like #500. I'd sooner listen to serious arguments about what to do with the border, what to do about guns or why we have another election between two shitheads like Biden and Trump on the ballot because those are all real problems.

Freep people and Freep adjacent types are very much "suck it up snowflake" and "mah freedom of speech" types who accuse people like me, my friends and the younger generation of being too soft and not being able to handle things.

Are there a bunch of Swifties who will do anything she says, but only if her boyfriend's team wins the Super Bowl? If she really wants to hurt Donald Trump because she is a globalist, then why can't she just do it regardless of the outcome of a game 9 months before the election?

loving exactly the same logic as the “Super Bowl rigged in overtime by a narrow margin” poo poo. “Democrats have the system so much on lock that they can cheat with impunity…a little bit”

I have to put this somewhere.

A coworker and a customer tag teamed me today about the NFL/SB being rigged and it was insane. Their stance was it's obvious and that people like me have their head in the sand but, since the burden of proof is on them, I started with the basics.

1. Who rigs it? The players. OK so 53 players on each side flawlessly execute the script on every play. Dude, they can't flawlessly execute the plays they DO practice every week. Mistakes happen on every play.

2. Why rig it? For the money! They ALREADY rake in money. There's no NEED to script it. If it were scripted, the Dallas Cowboys would be in every other SB since they, by far, are the NFL's biggest TV draw.

3. Money for whom, exactly? "The Eilte" (actual answer) so, again, WHO is that? Musk, Bezos, Trump...? The owners? They don't need to script anything to sell their product.

The customer said the game went into overtime for "more ads and more money. Think about it, dude". OK. Then why doesn't every other SB go into OT and why are so many of them blowouts? "Because every game has to be different". *SIGH* I asked them who scripted that loving 2019 game that ended 13-3 with Tom Brady in a starring role and WHY would "they" write that script? They ignored that and said that the 49ers coach electing to receive in overtime was the wrong call and therefore proof/evidence of the rigged game. I asked him how the coach/teams knew what the coin toss would be.

Last Sunday, how did they manage to "script" a motherfucker kicking a 57 yard field goal, which is not easy. Under 50% success rate since 2010. Good thing he hit that bitch to stay on script, huh?

What about injuries? Did the Eagles gently caress up the 49ers Brock Purdy's elbow in the NFCCG last year on the correct, precise play? If so, what money is to be made by a 31-7 blowout that many people will turn off? Or was that a blown line in the script?

When a kicker doinks a FG off the upright, was he supposed to make it, miss it or actually hit that FG post? No one can do that consistently. Can kickers control distance on kicks within 5 yards to set up returns and poo poo?

One guy, when I asked, told me that he thinks EVERY GAME of EVERY WEEK was predetermined. So that's 53 players, 12 coaches and 7 refs times 32 teams (2304 people) with 6 days of preparation each week, no idea who's going to get hurt, what the weather is going to be and getting then planning and rehearsing the directives from The Elite to script the league average of 153 plays per NFL game. Dude, the WWE couldn't pull this off.

I'll stop there because I'm exhausted.

It just seems like so much more work than playing the game.

"Yeah but, man, you don't understand. It's all about the MONEY, dude. Think about it!" AS if the NFL doesn't just print money regardless of who wins these games.

Honestly, though, I'm gonna borrow your much more succinct, direct retort the next time I see this dude or encounter this bullshit. You made me think that, yeah, there might be a secret Illuminati underground cabal smoking cigars and rigging the economy while pulling levers to adjust world situations and start wars. But it's so much simpler to just do a capitalism or be a dictator.

I looked up a few of the videos that allegedly prove the NFL is scripted. One was a former player clearly being sarcastic and funny. This was mentioned to me as "former playersS are even coming out and saying it!". The other was a defensive player trying to reach Mahomes during a scramble run who had to take out a blocker to get there as Patrick was running and weaving. This was presented to me as the defender trying to block the guy in his way.

It's a little unnerving having a soon to be 13 year old son knowing that many grown adults actually get their information from FB feeds, tweets, satirical news and "OMG! SHOCKING video that THE NFL *insert thing* doesn't want you to see!!!" Youtube videos with ridiculous seductive thumbnails; all designed to generate clicks and drive ad revenue. I work hard with my kid to teach him the difference between bullshit and not bullshit but it's a daunting task with all this pervasive garbage out there.

That superbowl rigging was pretty elaborate, since if SF didn't have one of their extra points blocked there wouldn't have been an OT and they would've won. So the kicker very skillfully kicked it at exactly the right angle where the defender's hand would be to deflect the ball. :ninja:

Apparently, he intentionally kicked it low according to my sources. Man, those dudes can really sell it. Incredible how the guy that beat on that block really sold it by totally looking like he was trying to block that other dude. Just incredible. Puts the WWE to shame.
