Hear ya. My blood isn’t warm enough for a meeting until 11 on most days.

Etterra ,

I heard that the Lutheran church over on Cherry St. is hosting a barbecue for Mole People starting at 3pm this Saturday.

Moles are active at twilight. Maybe they should swap, lizard people in the afternoon and mole people in the morning. Better yet, push the mole bbq to like 9:30pm.

Long form article about John Hinckley Jr which is a very good read. nymag.com/…/john-hinckley-is-out-of-the-mental-ho…

MehBlah , (edited ) to insanepeoplefacebook in Finally one of the sovcits is noticed by CPS.

One consistent thing about sovcit garbage is their ability to leave out relevant things when talking about how much a victim they are. I’m sure there is more to their actions than what is described that lead the hospital staff to alert CPS.

Edit: My personal experience with a NICU makes this response no surprise at all. My son was premature and while we were there the father of a teenage girl who had a baby there came in to the NICU and started getting loud about unplugging the baby. He was quickly escorted out by Hospital security and arrested. They take no chances in that kind of environment.

Either go do some marksmanship training and finally do something about it yourself for once in your pathetic life, or shut the fuck up about wishing other people dead on the internet because it’s not nice.

Obligatory fuck that orange piece of shit I hope he loses and mopes back to his paradise Florida mansion to die an old man.

Junkhead ,

I know you dont have any friends or loved ones that value your life but i do and i have obligations so until the cities descend into full madness and chaos i have people that rely on me for support.

So shut the fuck up before i take my marksman training to yours first before i start the war on conservation. I wish you dead as well fucker.

Somebody else already tried. Since they stole your thunder, you’ll probably want to do something about that, first. To do that, step one is to acquire a time machine. Any time machine will do, but you’ll be going to the 80s so you’re gonna need to blend in, so I’d suggest one of the phone booth ones or the DeLorean.

I don’t like former presidents that have been shot. They’re losers and suckers.

Not from the US and I don’t understand why one would support a candidate just because he survived an assassination attempt. Can somebody explain the logic behind this?

Fisch ,
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I guess it made him look stronger or cooler or something. He’ll probably also use this to say that Democrats are trying to kill him, insinuating that they don’t mind killing people to achieve their goals.

WraithGear ,
@WraithGear@lemmy.world avatar

Which is funny because killing people to achieve his goals is Trumps political platform.

Soundhole ,

I’m in the US but I don’t necessarily see any proof of this. I’m not sure where this narrative is coming from, it’s very strange.

nimpnin ,

i heard somebody say that bolsenaro got a boost in the polls after he got stabbed

Daxtron2 ,

Reagans assassination attempt

Soundhole ,

So I guess past experience, basically? We’ll see. Political violence is not justifiable but no one really likes that orange prick except his little goon army so we’ll see how long the sympathy lasts.

Daxtron2 ,

no one really likes that orange prick

The Republicans will fall in line behind their guy like they always do, despite their complaining

Anyolduser ,

American here, I haven’t heard one peep about Trump getting more support because of this outside of Lemmy.

Whether or not the Trump campaign can spin this in their favor depends entirely on the motive of the assassin. If they were just some nutjob, there really isn’t much they can do.

If, on the other hand, the assassination attempt was politically motivated, there are two ways I can see this whole thing being spun:

  1. “The other side knows I’ll win and the only way to stop me is to kill me. If you don’t like them, vote for me because I scare them and they hate me.”
  2. “The other side is so evil and vile they would stoop to try to kill me rather than have a fair election”.

In the event that the assassin wasn’t some flavor of crazy, spin number one is more likely than spin number two, but they’re hardly mutually exclusive.

chicagohuman ,

Does it matter if it’s true? It hasn’t in the past

Anyolduser ,

Not to the “base” of either of the major parties, no. Those voters are already committed to their candidates.

This election is likely to come down to independents and undecided voters. Where that messaging could matter is with people who are unsatisfied with the Democratic party AND dislike Trump.

The idea that “they hate me enough to kill me” might be compelling to someone with a strong dislike of the Democratic party, perhaps enough to get them to hold their nose and vote for Trump. That being said, I wouldn’t even venture a guess at how many people that would be.

Evotech ,

PredictIT increased the chance that trump would win to 66% from 60.

Uplink ,
@Uplink@programming.dev avatar

I don’t think the motivation matters. They will just spin it in any way they think it will benefit them.

GBU_28 ,

It’s not a purely American phenomena. It paints a candidate in a human light, as they “survived” a very public “tragedy”, yet are still strongly pursuing what they think is right.

It’s a humanizing event.

This is not a pro trump comment.

Edit but this is certainly not a pro violence comment either

TokenBoomer OP ,

This is the truth. This is what everyone has been trying to communicate.

Kaboom ,

Voting against the people who got their base that riled up

EtherWhack ,
@EtherWhack@lemmy.world avatar

Depending on how the event is spun (story-wise), an attempt like this could make the other candidate’s party seem unhinged enough that one of their members would do (and apparently fail badly at) this. This, making the target, and their party by association, seem more noble than thay may be.

To a lot of people, whether the shooting is or isn’t affiliated doesn’t really get questioned no matter what they hear, as what party would hurt itself? They’ll immediately think there is some conspiracy (the human psychology loves these rabbit holes) to make it seem like any favoring affiliation to the target’s political side is staged by the other.

tacosanonymous ,

It does seem weird that a felonious rapist would get a boost from not dying. Even more baffling that he’s likely a pedo.

But lying and spinning by a corrupt machine can go along way in a country full of ignorant assholes.

corsicanguppy , to greentext in Chin up, small Kings!

Good thing it wasn’t up a little and to the left? That was close.

I truly don’t understand. No matter how funny or unfunny, true or untrue, pro- or anti-Biden a post is - if it contains his name or face it gets downvoted like crazy.
