You couldn’t make this shit up

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 52 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, I think they did. That sauna is obviously not on as they clearly aren't sweating, so this does appear to be quite fabricated.

[–] notsosure@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yeah, but you couldn’t make it up on a meta level as in: imagine RFK and kid r**k in a sauna, pretending to do sport and the sauna obviously isn’t on, and expecting everyone is so stupid to believe this shit. Nah, I could NEVER believe they would do that - oh oops they just did that, You couldn’t make this shit up

Why have you censored Kid Rack?

Are all these images actually real?

They are like a cross between a David Lynch Film and the photos from a 1970s serial killer photo album.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I was thinking the same thing. These clowns have no problems posting AI slop, these days. In fact, it's become a preference over reality.

You gotta watch the whole video, it's amazing ( not in a good way). It ends with them drinking raw milk in a hot tub together.

[–] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 39 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

That's the driest sauna I've ever seen. And it's clearly meant to be a wet sauna by its design.

Probably room temperature for the photo op.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 27 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

not nearly as dry as their partners

[–] A7thStone@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

They must be getting tips from Ben Shapiro.

[–] Chais@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

It's also very likely not heated.

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

It's not a dry sauna, kid rock snuck in some booze

That's what really surprises me with this crop of modern fascists: how utterly mediocre and grotesque they all are. Fascists of yesteryear tried to appear grandiose, impressive and worthy of the greatest respect.

Case in point, this is Martin Bormann, Hitler's councelor and thinking power behind the 3rd Reich:

Martin Bormann

And this is MAGA's equivalent:

Steve Bannon

The former tried to present himself as a well-kempt, important military figure (he was not), while the latter looks like a tramp picked right off the street.

That's the face of American fascism: sloppiness and mediocrity.

[–] Dragomus@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

All of them in the current regime look like washed out wannabes.
Every single one has a certain look of not fitting in the picture nor aspiring to be.
From the orange makeup head-honcho in his too-big suits to the head of the fbi looking like a deer in headlights, to the barbie girl viciously snapping at people for asking legitimate questions that she must never answer.
Not to forget the guy in charge of the military running around holding a microphone like he is about to start an auction.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Weirdly, they’ve got similar faces. I can’t tell if it’s the eyes, the head shape, or the expression, but I’d believe they were related.

[–] ExtremeDullard@piefed.social 8 points 2 weeks ago

That's the fat fascist look. Bormann too was overweight.

Just a couple of men getting sweaty in a sauna together, no big deal. Definitely not gay.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 23 points 2 weeks ago

I'm queer and I haven't done anything this Gay before.

Never mind the sauna or being barefoot, nobody does cardio in jeans and a belt

[–] hector@lemmy.today 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yeah pants with a belt will have your boxers ride up on you, it's super annoying, you need some kind of workout pants, with a drawstring.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

What makes you think he wears underwear.

You're welcome.

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

"RFK Jr's saggy cock and balls flopping about in sweat-soaked sauna jeans as he cycles whilst Twink Rock air humps the bench behind"

This mental image brought to you by @PhoenixDog@lemmy.world.

Bonus: what does that room smell like?

Damn, checkmate I didn't even see that one coming.

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 weeks ago

It’s the chafing. Look at his position. The belt is in his hips constantly crease.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 20 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (5 children)

This is insane and I legitimately love it. The video is fucking a glorious train wreck.

Sure Worm Brain RFK is definitely not operating on all cylinders however can't deny he looks good for his age of being 72.

Kid Rock on the other hand looks like the kind of person who will offer a blow job behind the Arby's so they can afford some crack.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

he looks good for his age

Steriods. I'm sure if he actually took doctor's advice they'd have something to say about a man in his 70s abusing steroids. Hopefully it's extremely dangerous.

Maybe from neck down. From the neck up, he looks like a cardiologist’s next paycheck.

Low key that's a sick album cover, just needs the title "the worm tales".

Such badasses, in a cold sauna...

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 14 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

He famously works out shirtless, in long jeans. That's a real popular look at the gym I go to, the MAGA chicks dig it. They say that's how Trump works out. They never show it on TV because he doesn't want to make American he-men feel bad about his raw animal power.

This can't be a real photo. Nobody can be stupid enough to pose for this thinking it will make him look good.

Edit: I just saw "The Majority Report" on this. It's not only real, it's a screen from a video.

Just two really old insecure hetero guys with their shirts off "exercising" and showing off to other insecure totally hetero old guys in what looks to be a closet.

What's the big deal?

AI ain't got shit on reality

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I haven’t ridden an exercise bike in too long to remember. Do they have pedals built for cycling shoes? Because pedaling on those barefoot is just unpleasant and opens you up to injury for any kind of actual exertion

[–] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It's a photo op, they're not actually doing any there there but posing for the cameras. It's clearly a wet sauna that's dry as a bone and almost surely at room temperature. The exercise bike was grabbed from the gym floor and dragged in there for the photo. They were probably told by the owner that they can't wear shoes so they aren't even though it makes no sense with the bike.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Well yeah, I’m just pointing out the lack of thought that went into this.

[–] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 5 points 2 weeks ago

I mean how much do we really expect the worm driving RFK Jr like a mech to actually know?

This gave me a good laugh. And laughing is good for health, right? So a job well done?

[–] ExtremeDullard@piefed.social 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I didn't laugh, but it made me shake my head in disbelief, so I exercised my spine, which is good for health.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Did they kiss?

What losers

[–] A_norny_mousse@piefed.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago

Why would they publish this and where? Or, how did we obtain this?

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The video, which sparked suspicions of AI, shows RFK Jr. and the 55-year-old controversial Detroit rocker working out shirtless and drinking whole milk while soaking in a hot tub to his song Bawitdaba.

Ah chugging whole milk 🥛 (raw I presume?) while doing cardio in a sauna seems like an excellent and very normal choice.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 4 points 2 weeks ago

Drinking Milk? You know who drinks milk, wierdos and perverts. -Rome from succession, as I recall
