gimme the GOD drat candy posted:leaks are good, whistleblowers are good. idgaf what their origin or motivations are and that shouldn't matter so long as they are providing accurate, verifiable information about wrongdoings. let the russians air any of our dirty laundry they find all they want. This, at least, was one issue that Missus Clinton was consistent on. She despises whistleblowers and has hated Wikileaks since the Arab Spring. I guess the CIA kisses her rear end so much because they're on the same page about people like Snowden. That, and they want to continue to work within the continental US (which is illegal). I watched with hearty laughter as our very own forums started parroting the lines about Putin rigging the election. Seriously, how dumb are people that the words "unsecured server" are ignored completely in favor of some Tom Clancy-esque conspiracy garbage. Mnoba posted:https://twitter.com/Variety_Claudia/status/854075323314429952 Chelsea Clinton has never looked cool and she's going to be even less popular if she loving tries it. Let's watch her closely. Maybe she'll become a CEO for a major company. Maybe she'll play bass part time in a band, while working for charities. She has years yet to impress us and prove that she was not hatched from a clutch of eggs in a basement in Arkansas.

Jose Oquendo posted:Didn't that mod claim he did that because he didn't want goons to commit suicide? It worked out like this: some forum goodguys made a "donate to RAINN" thread. The thread is probably still up, and it had to do with "Trump is a rapist, donate to RAINN or you are, too!" Emarx told the people who toxxed for Clinton that if they donated then he would forego their bans. These donations are tax-deductable (you will also notice this charitable bunch mostly donated 10 dollars each, a nice deal especially if you have plat+avs). The same oval office of a mod banned Bernie toxxers before the votes were all in and upgraded the Trump Towers guys to permabans. After that, he and FAU spent the next several days wetnursing the bitchbabies who were so sad "my eight year old is crying" blah blah blah not to put a gun between their stupid lips. It was a spectacle and makes the whole idea of toxxing pointless.

At first I figured Trump would settle for Syria or some Banana Republic that went red, but NOPE, he even sent Pence to SK to herald the end of the "patience policy". Although I'm not sure what they're doing with that aircraft carrier now.

I think it's funny that they reflexively turn to Chelsea for inspiration, as if the whole narrative of "Finally, a woman! She'll be more sympathetic and less likely to bomb people" won't fall apart in a matter of weeks when she cuts healthcare and goes along with whatever hawkish policy takes root. And the whole "Hillary persisted" thing She didn't persist. She bitched and moaned and gained ten pounds after kicking everybody of her staff (presumably for deficient "respeto"). Doing the whole "I'm a survivor" thing to cue up the kneejerk neanderthalism that is the MSM. Of course she survived. Presidential elections are not a fight to the death. If they were, Trump would be drinking E&J out of your skull.

Pump it up! Do it! posted:So what is the deal with the cult of personality around Joe "Creepy uncle" Biden? Sure, he's not Hillary but I don't see the greatness other than he has kept going even though he has been through some pretty big tragedies. Was it that people read all those quite funny onion articles about him and started taking that poo poo seriously? He's better at making speeches and he exhibits human traits. That gives him a real edge in politics.

skasion posted:Biden is creepy and probably would have been somewhere to the right of Obama/Hillary as president, but his "im not running" speech was full of Bernie talking points which was absolutely hilarious and combined with the Onion version of him being a cool dude probably did a lot to create this perception I thought it was supposed to be one of those obvious parodies. If it was, it's one of the only funny things the onion has done in months. If there's one thing I can certainly loathe the MSM for, it's their cooption of satire to serve their machine (so, not satire at all, really). They took a name that had years of consistently great material and turned it into punch and loving judy. gently caress the idiots who are too pussified to laugh at everything, and gently caress those embarrassing soap opera sluts at univision.

nigga crab pollock posted:its because we hosed up and crashed a top secret military prototype and pakistan gave it to china and told us to gently caress off. they had to obfuscate that with something people would care about, such as america murdering terrorist #1 I didn't dig very far when the news came. I thought it was a Chinook or something that crashed and lost several men and I remember thinking "yeah, that sounds like something we might do after a lengthy and expensive set of sims and dry runs". Zero dark thirty my rear end. So is the prevailing notion that bin Laden is dead? Killed by people near him or maybe a lucky shot from our missiles? I heard several people say he was dead starting in the mid 2000s, including Benazir Bhutto. But then al-Zawahiri called on jihadists to take revenge on 9/11 (which syncs up w/Benghazi, I believe).
