I oppose war in Iran because was is detestable.
You oppose war in Iran because you want troops in California instead.
We are not the same.
When I hear someone like MTG say something like this my first thought isn’t “Oh, she’s finally figuring it out!” No. It’s “What fucked up way does she think people need to be brainwashed to align more with her brand of shittiness?”
I have no idea if she’s just that stupid and only sees one move in front of her, or if she always knew but it’s only now suitable for her to say the truth. (It’s also possible it’s both with these people.)
I don’t even know her motivation. She could just keep quiet and not shoot herself in the foot.
There’s a youtuber I like that uses the term “weaponized autism” but this is more of a “ballistic brain damage” scenario.
“Want to see something cool?”
I got that dude all over my feed now. No idea why, but I’m never disappointed in the fact that the stuff he’s throwing out is, in fact, super cool
Well for once she has a point
Probably the rare times she said something that isn’t totally crazy
The recurring cycle of MTG deciding she wants more attention.
They are so close to realizing it.
They are absolutely not and will not under any circumstances actually go after Trump for any of this.
No one implied that. Good job.
It’s almost sentient.
starts eating its own shit again
Nevermind.
Saw polling where even Trump voters only have 25% support for attack on Iran, and majority of all demographics oppose by over 50%. There is a huge disconnect between zionist supremacist media and politicians, and American people. Not just war, but marjority of Amercians have unfavourable view of Israel despite absolute political/media dominance to “educate them”.
Polls also show overwhelming support for social security and taxing the rich, the GOP don’t give af and the R voters won’t change how they vote over this.
welcome to the resistance, Marjorie
this one never ceases to get a giggle out of me
Rare conservative win
I’m not sure this is a “win”
It is just reality
I thought this was a SNL skit with a joe biden character on the left.
Lee Corso in a wig is SO CLOSE to self aware here.
Almost there, cro magnum bad bleach blonde boy bod
Broken clock
Kinda. MTG is ragging on Fox News, sure, but she’s also both-sides’ing media outlets on the left with her full quote:
We have propaganda news on our side just as the left does
She’s fishing for people to agree with her which legitimizes her claim that left-leaning news networks are just as untrustworthy as Fox News, which is and untrustworthy news outlet, but she doesn’t say shit about Breitbart or OANN or any of the other right-wing superspreaders of misinformation.
So, she is a broken clock that’s currently pointing at the correct time, but she did it in a way to sneak in an untruth or two in there hoping that people would pick up on that and amplify the message.
Putting the new York times and fox news in the same category is correct as far as I can tell. I don’t oppose her calling NYT republican either.
There are liberal propaganda outlets and congressperons pushing for war with Iran
Look, fuck this racist asshole Marjory. But liberal news sources are also largely garbage. The NYT, for example (well respected by liberals) is constantly giving voice to reactionaries, lying by omission, supporting US imperialism and just generally upholding the status quo, even when it means normalizing/legitimizing fresh horrors from republicans.
I have not looked at the American mainstream press for a few months, but honestly cannot remember any broadcasters or papers who are decently covering all news
Yeah thats what broken clock means
I prefer “stopped clock,” since broken clocks can often continue ticking, albeit at the wrong speed.
A broken clock, whether it ticks too fast or too slow, is still right at least once every 24 hours, I think.
The only exception would be one that ticks correctly but is not set to the right time (does this count as broken?)
Yeah but the full saying is “a stopped clock is still right twice a day”
Where in my comment did I ever suggest that I don’t understand this?
I was just reflecting on the comment that I was responding to, which was specifying that a broken clock may be running fast or slow, instead of being stopped.
If a 24-hr clock is one second slow per day, its correct once every 236 years.
They did the math
I was thinking of an analog clock with 12 hours and no distinction of AM or PM… but if we’re talking 24h clocks you are right.
Every 118 years then.
Ah, true. I was definitely mistaken then.
If it ticks faster than time than it would be right more than once (24hr time) a day, the faster it ticks the more times it will incidentally be correct (perhaps there is an allegory here…)
A clock that ticks slower than time would be right less than once a day, but it can never…
I feel like I need a simulator to understand this relationship actually…
I was thinking of analog 12hr clock with no distinction between AM and PM
I wonder if your 24hr clock example would be more intuitive as frequencies and phases?
I was also visualizing the round analogue clock face, but didn’t want to muddy the water by saying “twice” when I guess it’s technically only once, just no am/pm delineation.
I am puzzling over this at work now. I guess a fast clock could be right almost infinite times a day if it ran fast enough, but a slow clock can only be as slow as a whisper faster than stopped, which would mean it could be right alllllllllllllmost twice a day, but never twice a day.
I mean with her she’s right less than once a day.
She probably gets a couple softball questions right from time to time :
🗣 " Today is Thursday, right?"
🧟♀️ “Yessssssss!”
Exactly.
Fuck, I agree with MTG this morning? And I was off to such a good start today.
This is a ‘‘The worst person you know just made a great point.’’ moment, isn’t it?
I wonder if she overheard it somewhere
More like the worst person ever now says the same as everyone else
It’s easy to pretend when your vote doesn’t count. It’s really fuckin easy when you’ve abdicated your responsibility as the US Congress and you don’t even get to vote.
“Even a broken clock is right twice a day”
Feels like a plague rat telling you “hey yo rats have the plague”
