Kamala is literally a Hitler. Woman openly laughs at forced labor prisoner slavery. The difference between the actual nazis and her office as DA is that they targeted blacks and browns instead of jews. Idk why so many cucks are fangirling over her rn

TheDarksteel94 ,

I was unable to find anything about that. Could you please link me your source?

andrewrgross OP ,

This is a common layman misconception. The term “hitler” isn’t actually based on how much the candidate engages in human rights abuses: it’s just a marker of how widely voters recognize them as “hitler-y” (to use the technical term).

A fun fact: within the field of meme political science it’s recognized that if we did apply a quantitative rubric, ALL of the US Presidents are actually hitlers!

dudinax ,

I’d love to see a poll on Trump voters for Harris vs. Hitler.

andrewrgross OP ,

Would you? I kinda would too, but also… boy that’d be an uncomfortable read.

Pure guess? 30% would pick Hitler… 15% would refuse to answer.

PanArab , (edited )

Ignoring the genocide in Gaza are we? Do liberals realize how insulting this is?

Skydancer ,

Not completely ignoring - I assume that was the swipe about “only engages in genocide reluctantly” was about.

Myself, I agree with you that we haven’t seen much sign of that reluctance.

andrewrgross OP ,

I don’t know if you can read the text easily on mobile, but there’s a joke in the text describing there about how he is indeed committing genocide.

Aria ,

What does it take for you to label a Hitler a Hitler? You watch someone kill thousands of children based on racism and decide they’re not a Hitler?

PanArab ,

To most Liberals Palestinians are just not humans and therefore there is no problem of human rights violation.

III ,

Maybe instead of “Alive” you should go with “Currently able to form full sentences”. Because Biden is just as “alive” as Trump in regards to how you are trying to frame him. The same issues Biden has, Trump has - just Trump’s cult doesn’t care.

ouRKaoS ,

Trump makes full sentences, the fullest sentences ever by any candidate current or past, no one could ever make fuller sentences, especially the losers and suckers that Trump is running against that hate America and want to turn us into a weak nation that only produces organic electricity that can’t run our great country because it can’t go through all the rivers and lakes because the water just stops it in its tracks and it stalls like those foreign import cars that Trump is going to put tariffs on because our great capitalist America doesn’t need a bunch of foreigners telling us how to drive our cars in our country because America is great and we can do whatever we want unlike Taiwan, which isn’t even a country, and needs to go away just like NATO and NASA and NOAA and all those other government agencies in the swamp that needs to be drained because it’s full of gators that are making it difficult for people to use their yachts in all of this electric water that’s taking over this great country!

Mark Kelly.

Navy Pilot, Navy Captain, Astronaut, Senator, husband of Gabby Giffords, twin brother of Scott Kelly with similar resumé, and he’s only 60. He and his brother can each win two terms and still be younger than Trump is now.

He also flips red states blue: he’s pretty much the only Democrat who has won anything in Arizona in decades.

De_Narm ,

“only 60” - the depressing state of politics. There’s a good amount of places where you’d retire before completing a single term at that age.

Rivalarrival ,

Agreed. I’m rather tired of the nation being run by workaholics. I want to retire someday. I want a candidate who shares that value, and builds a nation where I can do that.

Ideally, I think the oldest a candidate should be is 57 at the beginning of their first term, so that they retire from professional politics by 65.

That being said, no candidate is ever going to be perfect, and, he’s still 24 years better than the current option.

supertrucker ,

Good thing China has a number of honey trap spies. I’m sure Schiff will be eager to tell them all the dirty, dirty secrets of a US President

@solidgrue@lemmy.world avatar

And the reality is modern medical science has made 60 the new 50.

Which kinda works. because modern education has made 20 the new 14.

//class wars are awesome!

ramenshaman ,

Or Adam Schiff

Rivalarrival ,

Adam Schiff is a lawyer and California Democrat. He would easily win the blue states, but so would about 30 million other Democrats.

The red states will hate him, and he’s opposed by BLM, so he won’t be competitive in the swing states either.

There’s nothing special about him.

ramenshaman ,

That’s fair. I’d vote for him, but then again I’d vote for a soggy roll of single-ply toilet paper over Trump.

TheDoozer ,

Seriously, try being the candidate talking shit about an astronaut and decorated servicemember. “I like people who stay on Earth.” Well I don’t!

solidgrue ,
@solidgrue@lemmy.world avatar

“I like people who obey the law of gravity.”

YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH ,

He could retort by saying that he was obeying gravity, but falling continuously towards the earth while traveling at a speed that kept him from hitting the ground.

solidgrue , (edited )
@solidgrue@lemmy.world avatar

That implies the earth is round which might alienate some voters from that base.

Although… It might attract the “I’m a sekrit alean” bloc…

We should shop this, maybe do a tabletop…

andrewrgross OP ,

I’ve actually been casting him as VP in my head for like four weeks now.

I think it’s more likely than Biden being president next year, so fingers crossed.

Rivalarrival ,

Harris will get steamrolled by either Trump or Vance; Kelly wipes the floor with both of them. I think Kelly needs to be on the top of the ticket, and Harris needs to step down as well.

andrewrgross OP ,

Did you not read the graph? She’s a lock.

I mean, Kelly is a lock too. Anyone who can fog a mirror and doesn’t get an erection watching Starship Troopers will win this election. But Harris is kind of right there already, so that works for me. She could probably keep using the same email address and business cards. That’s a nice plus.

Resonosity ,

Unfortunately I think casting away Kamala as the pick would do more harm than good. She is the likely candidate. Joe can even make the transition smooth by entrusting the rest of his legacy with her, which is the reason he chose her as a VP in the first place.

People also know the name Kamala Harris, and they’ve known it for years now. It’ll be a huge turn to bring in a new candidate on top and do all of the rallying needed to get votes.

I think Kamala’s success will spend on the VP choice, her administration, and her campaign team more than her herself.

Rivalarrival ,

She doesn’t have a significant enough presence to challenge Trump. People may know her name, but they couldn’t pick her out of a lineup.

Kelly just has to stand there while being introduced as “Astronaut” or “Fighter Pilot” to remind everyone that Trump hasn’t actually done anything with his life.

Kalothar ,

100% has my vote

Resonosity ,

Mark Kelly as Kamala’s VP? Having that balance of ethnicity would help her get the votes. It’s exactly why Obama picked Biden

Rivalarrival ,

Kelly’s “blue” credentials are sound, and his history will appeal to many otherwise “red” voters. He is a real threat to poach votes from Trump’s base in red and swing states.

Harris can’t do that. She’s a lawyer, and everyone hates lawyers.

But nobody votes for the bottom of the ticket. Harris/Kelly loses; Kelly/Harris wins.

jol ,

This is anti Hitler propaganda, because you chose a pic where AH isn’t smiling to make him look more hitler 😑

andrewrgross OP ,

You got me. I confess: I have a bias against hitlers.

roguetrick ,

Councilor Uunona is devastated by this news.

simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler_Uunona

JasonDJ ,

You know, I just realized I don’t think I’d ever seen a picture of Hitler smiling.

So I looked it up. And there are plenty of them. And he looks…nice. Like, it’s weird. He looks like the fun uncle. He looks like there should be a mockumentary of him where he’s played by Steve Carell.

ADTJ ,

One of the big things they taught us in history lessons was how he came across very charismatic and that he was good at winning people over.

It’s really important for people to understand and learn in order to not repeat the mistakes of populism, evil people don’t generally go around shouting about how evil they are.

pleb_maximus ,

and also (thanfully) very dead.

No, no. Don’t you know that he works as a foreman in an Argentinian VW plant?

dubyakay ,

I thought he had that base on the moon now. That’s why we never went back.

Not “a hitler”?

He’s doing genocide!

meekah ,
@meekah@lemmy.world avatar

But only reluctantly… Well kinda I guess

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Yes actually. Our bombs, our guns, our fucking jets. If you do everything you can to facilitate another country’s genocide and the genocide would be impossible without your help, you are absolutely an accomplice to genocide. He’s a hitler.

meekah ,
@meekah@lemmy.world avatar

I’m referencing the image.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

The image exists in the context of all that came before it, it didn’t fall out of a coconut tree.

meekah ,
@meekah@lemmy.world avatar

I didn’t think joke would be criticized this much in a meme community. I agree that Biden doesn’t ‘reluctantly’ do genocide.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Critical meme theory. 🧐

andrewrgross OP ,

Yeah, but you can tell his heart isn’t really in it.

He’s weak sauce even when he’s trying to hitler.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

If there’s anything his heart is in, it’s Zionism. It’s his one true political belief.

scytale ,

Not sure I understand, how is literally hitler not a hitler?

CodyCannoli ,

He’s not Not a Hitler

andrewrgross OP ,

The label says “Not a hitler?”.

The X means you fail at not being a hitler. Hitler fails this test.

scytale ,

Ahhh. Slow day for me, thanks for clarifying.

AeonFelis ,

Double negatives FTW

marcos ,

I imagine Trump has only a partial check there. He’s not any young, just seems to be hiding that fact better.

andrewrgross OP ,

I didn’t say young. I said he is “somehow alive”.

_stranger_ ,

There’s a slurry of drugs keeping the Jonestown dreamsicle on his feet, I don’t know if he’s any more alive than an LLM at this point. He’s certainty less cogent than one.

At least Biden is still just running in “old human” mode.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Nah, I’m pretty sure that at least half the population would vote for a literal Hitler.

queermunist ,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

Half the population doesn’t even vote tbh

@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Also very true, disenfranchisement is all time high since a lot of people are starting to realize that they live under a dictatorship of capital.

Ok, now make a mosaic of Trump from all the Americans he killed by fucking up the COVID response, all the Kurds killed by his betrayal, and all the children imprisoned and misplaced for seeking asylum.

now make a mosaic of Trump from all the Americans he killed by fucking up the COVID response

only if you promise to make one for all the people killed from Biden’s failed response as well. you better hurry, you’ve got about 500 a day to add.

all the Kurds killed by his betrayal

I believe the quote goes “It may be dangerous to be America’s enemy, but to be America’s friend is fatal”. (rest in piss Kissinger, the world is better off without you)

all the children imprisoned and misplaced for seeking asylum.

ICE and the cages still exist, and in fact have received increased funding year over year.
