Dude this is a lot of work to go into just a Political ad. I wish I knew how big the team was that made this because they all deserve a part of that money the campaign spent to make this. I’m not a fan of Fortnite but this is still pretty crazy.

This is such a nuts clip. The dude is a piece of shit, immediately realizing he fucked up then saying “well I thought he said he supports Hamas” even though Medhi didn’t even mention Hamas.

They’re getting so close to slaping swastikas on their arms, this guy realized immediately that he can’t quite put the arm band on yet. But he desperately desperately wants to.

Fuck this guy. Medhi Hasan is an amazing journalist and he doesn’t deserve this shit.

“Listen, bigotry is sad and shameful. I don’t agree trans people should be made illegal. But taxes and immigrants…”

Enjoy the clip where Harris makes the completely accurate comment that “being a part of the role model club means sometimes being the only one in the room that’s had the experiences you’ve had”? The clip where she is just making an honest comment? The clip that you framed as her crying and being narcissistic? That clip?

Sure I’ll enjoy that clip since it shows she’s human. But as a reminder, this is not a community where you post an article and then say “just ignore the article and enjoy the clip”

What the fuck is this article? At the top it uses a roughly 30 second clip of Harris from a talk she did as California AG in 2016. Which is a clip where she talks about being a role model. But the article also claims she was crying while praising herself? She was not crying, she was literally laughing about how tough it can be to be a person who has been the first to a lot of things going like “its tough. Its tough.”

They literally introduce this article as

In this video, we analyze Vice President Kamala Harris’s recent speech at a women’s event. While her achievements are significant, many felt the focus was excessively on herself.

But for the life of me I can’t find what women’s event this article is talking about where she only talked about herself. Everything I’ve found is her talking about abortion and sure her being the first woman vp might come up but she never gushes about it like this article claims.

Im also fairly sure this is a porn site that also posts other things but I went to the home page and saw multiple porn videos. And the person who posted this article on the site has also posted porn articles.

I would argue that this should be removed because it is just not a real article with any actual reference to the supposed women’s event and uses a clip at the top that is from 2016 and frames it as if its from this month and is mostly a link to a porn site.

He said this when asked whether he thinks she worked at McDonald’s

“I know she didn’t. We checked it out,” the former president said. “They said she never worked here. She even picked the store. We went to the manager. The manager’s been there forever. ‘You remember her. No, she never worked here.’”

This is fucking hilarious. Harris is 60 this month. She says she worked there as an undergrad so let’s be generous and say 21. That means that it was 38-39 years ago. So the manager must be at least mid 60s. Which I just kinda doubt. Seems crazy that a manager of McDonald’s from the mid 80s is still working at the exact same McDonald’s as the manager. And if they are the exact same manager, there has probably been hundreds of people who have worked there in the last 40 years, I doubt they remember any of them.

Edit:not teens, during undergraduate, numbers updated

I don’t think this article is good journalism. The guy is taking the very incorrect polling from 2016 and 2020 and claiming that because Harris isn’t at that level of incorrect polling and that her lead is only 1-2 points that that means she’s losing bad. Which completely disregards how inaccurate polls have been since roe was overturned. They were predicting a 30 seat swing in 2022 and that was no where close. It also doesn’t take into account the amount of polls that are far right rigged polls to try and flood the averages to make it seem like Trump is so far ahead that he will naturally win and they will only lose by cheating. Providing cover to challenge the election when he loses.

Also. This quote is near the end. “Democrats have only two hopes. One is that today’s polls are more accurately gauging the electorate, and that Harris is therefore at least close to where she needs to be. The other is that by suddenly coming out of hiding to take friendly interviews, she can convince an electorate that seems unconvinced.” Which is. Just. So fucking stupid. Openly saying one of the reasons things are closer with the polls being at least a bit more accurate than 2020 and 2016, and then saying Harris has just recently “Come out of hiding”? That’s just bullshit far right talking points. She’s been doing interviews and rallies for well over a month as well as the debate that was a bit over a month ago. This is the same shit as when someone says “but what about her policies? She’s been so vague” which is also bs because if you want to know her policies all you have to do is LISTEN to her. But of course gotta have the far right talking point of her not being able to explain her policies.

This article was also written by J.T. Young who is the author of the upcoming book, “Unprecedented Assault: How Big Government Unleashed America’s Socialist Left” so if that doesn’t tell you his leanings for the interpretation he’s putting forth then nothing will.

But just in case, here’s some of his articles from the Washington Examiner “Why’s Harris so bad in interviews?”, Democrats need to replace their own radicalization, not sotomayor", “Sorry Joe, you’re no capitalist.”, and “Biden has no right to take credit for slowing inflation”.

Oh and some of his The Federalist articles “Trump should hit biden for completely ignoring the fentanyl problem”, “Leftists’ open borders and defund-police policies have come home to roost”, and “Trump assassination attempts are the logical result of the Lefts Marxist ‘Oppresion’ narrative”.

All those articles are from the last 4 years, some past couple months. Bu what I find interesting about this particular article is it shows just how much the far right has invaded the mainstream media and how they are given a platform to spew their propaganda. But hey, this was an “interesting” article.

It’s the framing of trans women as “biological men” as opposed to just calling them trans women. It gives ground to the right as trying to frame us trans folk as fakers as opposed to showing us as who we are, trans men and women.

Ah, a Marxist who has taken actual lessons from past failings of those who adhere to the ideology. How refreshing.
