Godamn man, how did so many people hear this clown talk and go "that's him, that's the guy?"
Wataba@sh.itjust.works · 37 pts · 44d
Stupid people dont want to think, they want to be led.
Janx@piefed.social · 10 pts · 44d
Yes, and they also want to be mad. They want someone to hurt the people they hate...
Serinus@lemmy.world · 29 pts · 44d
They don't hear it. Fox News won't play this clip.

This is a point I was making back during election season: all of media, left, right, and center, are all complicit for getting him elected, because they all sanewashed every nonsense comment. Every batshit thing he said was paraphrased in reporting to cut out the meandering chlamydia-induced brain fog that tied his sentence-fragments together. Very few people were actually watching him and listening to him, versus getting summaries and soundbites on the news, so very few people saw that he's a complete fucking lunatic.

Even the Spanish news networks were complicit. I remember seeing a clip where he said something bat shit crazy but the translation was something completely different.
Wurzl@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 44d
This is not true
Apart from Fox, the media did actually warn about Trump
This article was published a few days before the election👇👇

Man, you really proved your point with a list of NYT articles hidden behind a paywall.
Did any of these articles that I can't read actually quote the president directly?

The media is who voters get permission from to cast their ballots. The media (mostly meta and cable news corps) is the real root cause of all the current gesticulates widely
Rothe@piefed.social · 19 pts · 44d
Because they are as stupid or even stupider than him.

Yay for raising a dumber generation than the last!

Dumb people gonna dumb.
What’s crazy to me are all the smart bootlickers in government riding his coattails. Zero conscience.
Whostosay@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 44d
Smart is a way to describe the people that have joined teams with the guy that has the best record of throwing literally everyone he works with under the bus
Kongar@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 44d
Touché
:)
Whostosay@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 44d
It is still batshit insane though lol
SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org · 61 pts · 44d
He really is stupid, inside chips is full of TRANSistors, what did he expect?
knatschus@discuss.tchncs.de · 23 pts · 44d
Please tell me he didn't heard how all chips are made out of transistors and in his mind it turned into only transpeople can have them.
Remembering how he thought stealth planes are invisible this might be it.
Tyrq@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 11 pts · 44d
Asylum seekers as well.
ChairmanMeow@programming.dev · 3 pts · 43d
This honestly was my first thought. This almost definitely happened.
krisevol@lemmus.org · -1 pts · 44d
Did you watch the clip?
SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org · 1 pts · 43d
What difference does it make?
krisevol@lemmus.org · 1 pts · 43d
Because then you would know the quote OP posted is fake
SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org · 2 pts · 42d
Since I was making a joke about the title it doesn't matter if it's fake.
CorrectAlias@piefed.blahaj.zone · 37 pts · 44d
Hey, wait a minute. I never got my semiconductors. Did I get scammed? Maybe I needed to send Biden pics of me in my thigh highs to get my rebate?
Sabata11792@ani.social · 6 pts · 44d
Your lying, I know you're hogging all the RAM for yourself.
krisevol@lemmus.org · -2 pts · 44d
Did you watch the clip? The op isn't an accurate quote.
Trump never said biden was giving transgender semiconductors.
abc@suppo.fi · 33 pts · 45d
Ah so that's why RAM prices are so high. All the trans people are sitting on them.
SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 14 pts · 45d
If it fits....
krisevol@lemmus.org · -8 pts · 44d
You didn't watch the clip did you?
Dryad@lemmy.world · 24 pts · 44d
What a strange, delusional old man.
krisevol@lemmus.org · -10 pts · 44d
Did you look at the program? He's not wrong.
Dryad@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 43d
Could you point to where exactly the chips act says so then?
Mac@mander.xyz · 21 pts · 44d
What do you have when you used to have a brother, but she transitioned into a woman?
A transsister 😏
okwhateverdude@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 44d
A sibling? Is this a trick question or something?
EDIT: 😉😉
thermal_shock@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 44d
Twas a joke homie. A pun if you will
Mac@mander.xyz · 3 pts · 44d
A transsister 😏
I edited the punchline into my previous comment because i realize it could be misinterpreted.
okwhateverdude@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 44d
lol, it was a trick question
Mac@mander.xyz · 2 pts · 44d
A little play on words! heh
AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space · 18 pts · 45d
To be fair, disproportionately many hardcore hardware hackers are trans, so it makes sense
JustJack23@slrpnk.net · 10 pts · 44d
That is what I was about to say. Trans people are some of the most talented software developers(my field I don't have observations for hardware stuff) I know.
I am voting with two hands to give them more grants because I see the open source projects they maintain and create with next to no money.
Droechai@piefed.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 44d
Im all for giving them grants if they give back some transistors. We cant have the worlds supply of any necessary item or resource tied up by 1% (or less) of the population..
Somehow this seems more relevant to the oligarch class than the trans community, but then again Im not the president of the usa

Fuck, I hate that I’m going to get downvoted for this.
He’s a moron. Utter moron. However the underlying complaint about anything the Democrats did isn’t far off. Even with Rural Broadband, their requirements were so stringent that they effectively never got off the starting line. The dems continue to let perfection hinder progress.
The CHIPS act itself was a sound plan. That much money takes time to execute on and once this moron came back into office, the act was screwed.
BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 44d
The only reason I downvoted this comment was because of the “democrats pursue perfection” fallacy. The DNC establishment is performative. “Never getting off the starting line” is the goal. They want to get credit for the performance but are actively opposed to actually delivering anything beneficial, because that would mean fair and proportionate taxation of the wealthy, which they — being the wealthy and ruling class — must never allow.
Zoomboingding@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 44d
Not sure about the broadband funding, but the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Hurricane Helene/Milton/Maui Wildfire special funding weren't overly strict, and those projects have been underway for a while. Sure, these are targeted at disadvantaged communities, but they're supposed to be.

You mean to tell me my trans friends and family are holding out on me?! They have stashes of CPU/GPUs. Who knew?
