I legitimately thought this was satire.
I will admit to not liking Paper Straws since last I used one it just melted in my drink. Been meaning to invest in a reusable straw to avoid plastic but not use paper.
Is ye just bizzaro Tracy Morgan from 30 rock
“I AM A
JEDI!NAZI! I AM AJEDI!NAZI!”
why has trump two different pfps
One is from “Truth” Social, or whatever his social media thing is called.
These post are bad yes, but the real problem is all the likes, comments and retweets they got. We are deep within the brainrot era now fam.
Look, im with them on the plastic straws and the terminally ill children.
tbf we don’t know how many of those are real people, they love big fake numbers over there
The first one surely aged fast.
Musk probably still has ketanine fuelled wanks dreaming about Trump’s loaded diapers.
Fucking hell, are we under attack by some alien plot? Is it a virus that affects the brain?
Excess wealth. Wealth rots the brain.

no, not really, it’s only the last 20-30 years and mostly used like this by russians (also includes things like setting up conspiracy theory websites without obvious ideological tilt (at first), maybe to groom suggestible population for later use). the old way was to try to bring these people to your cause, not just to try to cause non-directed disorder
Oh, everyone does this and it’s not new. The US has done this an absolute ton, and is still doing it in, for example, Iran. Arguably the US exists because France did this to the British empire, although France was unusually direct in its support of the rebels. Recently, Pakistan did this with Afghanistan. It’s incredibly common.
60 years of right wing propaganda edging us ever closer to outright fascism wrapped in an American flag stitched together with hate.
60 years of right wing propaganda

Jpegs have a certain crunch you can taste
