Don't forget killing the last Pope.

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 35 points 3 months ago (1 children)

We’re talking about his failures.

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 35 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That pope was pretty decent, as far as popes go.

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 21 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Find me a lower bar, I'll pay for your digging permit

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I'm just saying: if we get a decent one, let's not kill him, because then he'll get replaced. That's like rerolling a 19.

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think we got a better one, despite the fact he's an American. I'm just saying based on the results so far if we keep killing em, maybe we'll eventually get someone who'll prosecute the pedos.

I don't think popes have prosecutorial power...

I had heard this is the story of JD Vance.

When he was young he "thought he was gay". While he was in college, he met Peter Thiel, a gay billionaire who had come to his campus for some talk or something. When they met, the gay billionaire really took an interest in this man who thought he was gay.

At some point, JD Vance says that he stopped thinking he was gay. Meanwhile, Thiel helped Vance find a job. Actually, several jobs. It turns out that Vance kept getting fired from his jobs, but Thiel kept getting him better jobs every time he got fired. Eventually, Thiel helped JD Vance get into the field of politics, where Vance has been in his pocket to this very day.

Now, from my perspective, it's difficult to explain why a businessman would keep finding better jobs for a person who keeps failing at the jobs unless there is something outside of the job that makes it worth it. So, it seems very likely that JD Vance gives world-class blowjobs, and that he is just generally a failure at everything non-sexual.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 56 points 3 months ago (5 children)

Not even kidding, that is a remarkably accurate reading of Vance's resume. Literally EVERY job he's held was because of Peter Theil, including VP. The story is that Peter Theil personally walked Vance into Maralago for a meeting with Trump, and came out with Trump naming Vance as his VP candidate.

It was a deal between Trump and Theil, two of the nastiest Sociopathic Oligarch on the planet, so certainly money changed hands, and Trump didn't mind Blagojeviching the VP seat, since he didn't have to worry about creating the usual coalition to boost the vote, because he knew the election was rigged.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The election pisses me off so much. They obviously rigged it a lot, so much that trump got mad because he didn't win as strongly as he wanted.

And the dems just gave up before election night was even over. Fuckers

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 10 points 3 months ago (3 children)

You get it 100%. Nothing pisses me off more than DEMS saying Kamala was a bad candidate, and lost. She was actually a decent candidate, far better than Biden was, and she ran a strong campaign, and went into Election Day clearly winning the Enthusiasm Gap.

Trump got reelected because his followers were willing to support his baseless claims that the 2020 election was rigged for an entire four year term. As you pointed out, Dems couldn't even hold it together through the end of election night. Disgraceful.

That's why I've been an Unaffiliated Independent since I registered to vote 50 years ago this month. I find both parties to be corrupt and incompetent, and I don't want to be part of either club.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

When racism and misogyny is on the upswing in an election, they fielded a black woman that was an early (the first?) dropout in the previous term's nomination race, and then vigorously courted the conservative vote via Liz Cheney for some gods unknown reason at the end of the campaign.

If democrat operatives aren't actively trying to sabotage the Democrat Party, I don't know how you interpret it. They'll trip on their own dicks and find someone even less likely to appeal to centrists and alienate leftists next go around, so the Christian Nationalist Party has half a chance.

I'm convinced that some of these people have been bought, there's no other explanation. MAGA has a virtually unlimited spigot of money, and EVERYBODY has a price. If the word came in that Schmuck Schumer could be bought for a billion bucks, he'd have it by lunchtime.

Exactly brother.
Also, Ive been registered Republican for twenty years, just in case something happens and they use lists. Just in case.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's a valid strategy that I've considered, just so I can vote in primaries, and vote for the candidate they hate the most.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

After trump i refuse the do that. He used to be the worst candidate. There's just no way to know which of the scammers are going to be promoted at the end of the day.

I never voted for him. But i learned the lesson he taught us.

And the last pope.

[–] aguasemgas@lemmy.eco.br 41 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And don't forget being the last person to visit Pope Francisco before he died

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And don't forget ~~being the last person to visit~~ killing Pope Francis~~co before he died~~

Fixed it for you

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 9 points 3 months ago

I think he fucked the pope's couch and the shock of seeing it killed the pope.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 38 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It's almost like normally when a politician goes to a diplomatic event they're surrounded by experts in many fields to help then navigate the the complex situations and Vance just went by his completely unqualified self and winged it.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Rarely have I seen failure of winging it on this scale.

[–] lemmyng@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Sure if it's just "winging it".

But if you consider "right-winging it", look at that, a whole metric ton of failures before your eyes!

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 7 points 3 months ago

Because he probably thinks everyone wings it, because he's an idiot.

[–] NycterVyvver@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And Greenland. They forgot Greenland.

Now it’s tanking Orban’s election. Fuck Orban.

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Check again. He's already lost

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

That’s what I meant. He helped sink his election.

Sorry I wasn’t clear.

Vance can go to Hungary to try and manipulate an election.

Ontario pays for anti-tariff ads in the States and that is interference.

[–] aldhissla@piefed.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lol, thanks Vance for giving Magyar Peti the boost.

trump had the meirdas touch, while VANCE has the touch of death.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 3 months ago

He also killed a Pope, don't forget that. He was literally the last guy the Pope spoke with, and he was dead within 24 hours. Coincidence? There are no coincidences in politics.

[–] raman_klogius@ani.social 4 points 3 months ago

Truly Vice Presidential stuff, capable of succeeding the oval office should circumstances require it.
