The further we get from 9/11, the more impossible it is to even conceptualize the future. Like, idk what kind of jacked up shit happened to the timeline that day, but it was bad. Maybe tower 7 was the fucking gateway to the multiverse and some Doctor Who shenanigans happened when it fell.

We've reached the point where MTG and Candace Owens are actually saying reasonable things that no one in leadership positions is allowed to say. I sincerely do not know what could possibly happen next.

Jeff Bezos takes the world hostage with a space laser from his volcano lair?

Finally, a return to normalcy.

We are at the point where the (past?) antisemitism of these people is far less severe than the other "normal" politicians who are supporting a literal Holocaust.

Jet fuel can't melt steel beams but maybe the regeneration energy from a Time Nobility person strapped to the front of a plane and forced to spend all their regenerations can?

The reason is we have been in an aggressively paced class war for the last ~20 and we have been losing badly while refusing a leftist analysis. Brainrot was inveitable in these circumstances as for the average person they just feel more lost, beat down, and angry as time goes by.

Ain't no multiverse shit... there are plenty of good explanations that should be understood, but "the multiverse" is just a cop out.

I wanna emphasize why the fuck would anyone care what Candace Owens has to say?

This grifter started out her career as an anti-Republican, feminist liberal social advocate, but when that just wasn't getting her the clicks she started doxing people for money, that didnt work either and she got doxxed so next she did a hard 180 political pivot full support of Republicans, Gamergate, trad-wives, and Trump - where prior she had regularly mocked him. Working for Turning Point USA and later running her show on Prager U and then The Daily Wire, running her mouth about climate change being fake, trans people should be banned from everything.. whatever the Daily Hate message was from the alt-right cesspool. The Daily Wire decided she was getting too antisemitic for their hard right conservative tastes so now she's out on her arse from there too - looking for a new grift she's now running a podcast about how Harvey fucking Weinstein was falsely accused and wrongly convicted.

She will do or say anything that gives her clicks, attention, and money. Ignore her.

I cannot stand her voice. ~~Also, where was this for the last two years?~~ Somehow I don't believe that she's actually thinking about Palestinians but of the other side.

[–] answersplease77@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

she's been talking against this US-funded genocide for over a year. thousands of clips of her exist and her stand is clear about it.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I admit, I haven't been following her closely (cf above voice). So I'll take that part back.

[–] elevenbones@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What did she say? No fucking way ima listen to this.

[–] nagaram@startrek.website 5 points 2 weeks ago

I hate to report but Candice called Gaza a genocide and said when the vacation spot opens on Gaza beach we should look at those who went as vermin.

  1. obviously she's a grifter who is rapidly loosing favor in the trump regime she helped build. So always keep that in mind.

  2. I'm personally not a fan of dehumanizing fascists or genocide enablers. I think its important that we remember that human beings are always capable of this.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Oh it's you, of course you're a big fan of Candice Owens. That makes perfect sense.
