I think it's because everyone expects Germans to know better. And it's pretty sad when it looks like the lesson that was learnt wasn't "subjugation and genocide of a targeted demographic is bad" but instead "criticism of Israel is bad".

People expect it from magas and religious nutters but not from Germans in 2025.

Yeah to be completely honest, I would have good intentions but also probably leave this world a burning wreck afterwards. To use the latest movie for an example, I would probably be part Superman and part Hawkgirl. I would be trying to do good but also I'm not an alien trying to get people to accept me and like me, I'm a native that's sick of this shit. So I would also be dropping certain people from high places.

And I definitely wouldn't not interfere with world politics. I've even thought about it. My first move before introducing myself to the world would be to find where all the nukes are, and hit everywhere as quickly as possible and leave them on the moon or something until I figure out what to do with them. Then I would get all of the 'strong' men and nazis and religious despots and traitors of the free world together in front of cameras and make a human centipede out of them without any surgery, and without a mouth or backside so that it's just an ouroborous of its own shit.

Then I would just stick to crime fighting and ruining Lex Luthor's day and shit and keep an eye as people chose new leaders. And if leaders that aren't there to serve the people start taking over again, it's ouroborous of shit time again. Or something worse.

I dunno, I think she fits in nicely with the rest of the reality TV stars, news readers and podcasters cosplaying as politicians. What were Trump's actual credentials? Bankrupting casinos and saying "your fired" on the Apprentice?

I agree with most of what you say but I think it's both. People are tired of voting and paying taxes when it all seems to just go towards paying rich and connected people bloated salaries to blatantly sleep in parliament in front of cameras. But the wealthy elites harnessed that and took advantage. And infected conspiracy theory circles and started putting so much bullshit out there that 'truth' seems to be optional these days.

I'm showing my tinfoil hat here but in my view this started happening some time after the Arab spring when powerful people shat themselves and realised how powerful social media could actually be.

Trump was totally packaged as a rebel and a renegade coming to change the system. Around 2015 I remember even 'progressive' minded people saying things like "he's a businessman, not one of these useless assholes, he'll get things done!" In South Africa, there was the same rhetoric surrounding Cyril Ramaphosa in the beginning.

I don't want to sound like self aggrandizing asshole here but I think that maybe people in general are even less smart than I thought. Because just before everyone started thinking that capitalist businessmen were going to save them, social media was all about Anonymous and Zeitgeist and how awesome socialism is and how much capitalism sucks. And seemingly overnight, while still looking for the same kind of change, they fell for a slimy capitalist swindler selling that change.

Honestly my sincere hope and probably the main thing keeping me going is that this all collapses under the weight of pedophiles and incompetent podcasters and news readers put into positions of power, and then the pendulum swings back and we get the change that we actually need.

Done. Didn't even think of that, thanks.

Sounding more like a Snyderman fan than a Superman fan, to be honest. An elseworld story now and then, or an edgelord deconstruction or two is great but the fantasy is that Superman has all this power but still uses it for good.

Turning into a dictator is weak and easy shit. It's probably what every fucking manosphere clown would do. While going "don't blame me, it's just my biology! Hurr durr! I'm simultaneously logic and rational and superior but also a fucking ape that can't control myself! Hurr durr."

What makes Superman special is that he has all of this power but still has actual morals and values and empathy without the only thing holding him back being the law.

Because they picture in their minds of the hivemind known as "women" only wanting tall boyfriends.

I think Peter is the kid who smoked a marijuana, then joined a Satanic cult, then sacrificed his family. Not the biblical Peter.

This is satirical anyway, as it turns out (not that there wasn't propaganda like this).

As a non-American looking in from the outside, from what I can gather in progressive online spaces, people are sick of career politicians in general that don't have any actual morals but are instead driven by marketing and advertising. This is a problem not just with the US Democrats but with the old guard in general worldwide.

That's part of why the door has been opened to right wing lunatics in the first place. Around 10 years ago, a lot of people thought Donald Trump was the "anti establishment" pick. As insane as that is to reasonably well educated people, simple people with shitty lives believed that this upstart really would "drain the swamp".

It's also part of why the career politicians aren't doing much to stop it either. They see the numbers on their marketing graphs, so they're evolving into another stage of parasite that can feed on the new generation.

There's no doubt in my mind that it would be a tougher battle for a woman than for a man in the USA. But also, they would stand a much better chance with someone like AOC than someone like Clinton or Obama or Harris. Because people are fucking sick of corporate undead ghouls whose sole purpose is to keep the Overton window in place.

I know that someone here is going to call AOC a sellout or something but come on, your anarchist socialist utopia is even further away now that the christo-fascists have undone so much progress. AOC is a thousand times better than almost anything else you've got right now.

You need more women with AOC and Jasmine Crockett energy, and less with Joe Biden energy. Someone to knock these christo-fascist clowns the fuck out on the mic and on social media, and to inspire people. Not someone that's going to go "oh well I tried nothing and now I give up" and fucking bore everyone to death.

Pizza

Is that what the "Domino's" was referring to? I didn't even realise that, that's why I put the "(?)" there, it didn't sound like any kind of drug rehab lol. And I thought the tape was like some DARE or Reefer Madness type shit. Basically that this was someone trying to cash in on the Satanic panic.

But with the simple context of pizza, the whole statement makes a lot more sense now lol. So obviously I'm dumb.

Nicely done! Well that confirms it lol.

What makes this so believable to me is that I grew up with people in positions of authority pulling things out of their asses. Like messages from Satan in heavy metal, or Pokémon making kids commit suicide, or LSD hidden in temporary tattoos, drug dealers handing out free drugs to kids, He Man being evil because there's only one master of the universe etc. etc.

And it hasn't stopped. In some ways it's more deranged now. Like tracker microchips in vaccines, or something to do with 5G and changing your DNA. Jewish space lazers. Litter boxes in librul classrooms for kids that identify as cats. Transgender for everyone! George Soros and the lizard people secretly controlling all the right wing billionaire owned media.

I guess that's what makes this particular fake ad a good joke. I'm so tired.
