Current Affairs The Would Be Emperor Has No Clothes (aka POTUS 47)

[verreauxi]

Same can be said for Rage Against The Machine.

Weapons, not food, not homes, not shoes
Not need, just feed the war, cannibal animal,
I walk the corner to the rubble
That used to be a library, line up to the mind cemetery now
What we don't know keeps the contracts alive and movin'
They don't gotta burn the books, they just remove 'em
While arms warehouses fill as quick as the cells
Rally 'round the family, pockets full of shells

and Bob Marley

If it was a troll move this, I think, is the reason. Musk wants to destroy the MSM. MSM is a competitor to X. We are just one political decision away from MSM(at least the TV portion of it) being utterly destroyed.

Yeah, the MSM and their happy clappy viewers perceive Musk as a threat. They don't perceive Macron as a similar threat. That's why both can do similar salutes and the MSM only makes a fuss about one of them.

So this is where I realise just how far down the rightwing conspiracy rabbit hole you have fallen. The whole MSM thing - it is a right wing hoax mate, and you have been sucked in. There is no agenda from the MSM, the whole worlds media is not covering up for the new world order and they are not lying about covid, vaccines or anything else. Making up some fantasy that MSM is about to be destroyed - it is you lot who are talking about the MSM, no one else.

Your sucking up to the weird conspiracies is shocking mate, you look and sound like a total fool.

Anyone of our resident Trump supporters going to explain why it’s ok to pardon someone who used a stun gun on a police officer, despite JD Vance saying earlier that Jan 6th rioters convicted of violence offences wouldn’t be pardoned?

‘Cause it sounds like orange man here just deflected the question.

Enjoyed sharing that band and their lyrics with my boys when they were young.

Also, see the entire canon of Woodie Guthrie. Most famously, "This Land is Your Land" as a response to the pap of "God Bless America."

Can any American posters here confirm or deny what he said about Oregon (Portland), Seattle and Wisconsin (obviously NOT the bit about it not existing if he hadnt sent in the national guard).

The POTUS did not call out the Minnesota National Guard during the Floyd uprising. The state's Governor (Tim Walz) did. As for Portland (and Seattle, etc):

Amid questions about Capitol riot pardons, Trump invokes Portland chaos

Speaking to reporters Monday, President Trump justified his decision to pardon Jan. 6 rioters by claiming that prosecutors took a lighter touch with activists aligned with racial justice protests in 2020.

It's a very common Trumpian deflection. He gets called out for doing something he knows is wrong or unpopular and he deflects to the action/inaction of others while adding gross embellishment. It's childish.

Some hilarious people in this thread.

Wetting the bed because a billionaire is getting stick for a Nazi salute. Poor Musk, who’ll earn more millions next week.

What exactly is this msm that you are so worried about?
And what would you consider to be unbiased news sources?

Yeh, the deflection and taking praise for actions that were not his is standard for him it seems.

It's almost like trump is a senile old moron who hasn't got a clue what's going on, and others are making the decisions.

2020 sucked, but it was *almost* worth it simply because it produced this specific moment. The woman draped in a Blue Lives Matter flag is just chef’s kiss.

Amusing.



All that needs to be done now is ban pharma adverts from TV and MSM destruction will be almost complete. Overpaid news anchors will no longer be overpaid. The universities & colleges next...
