Just a guy, doin’ stuff.
What’s keeping him in the race is the delusional nature of his supporters. Think about all those points you wrote about what a horrible person he is. How many other candidates could survive even one of those controversies? He lives in an imaginary world of his own creation where whatever he says he believes to be true, and his cult like followers are so brainwashed that their perfectly smooth grey matter just soaks it up like a sponge. There’s precious little he could do or say at this point that would have his base leave him.
Stupid is as stupid does.
It’s like someone took a bunch of Republican grievance talking points and tossed it into a big nonsensical word salad of fear mongering.
Listening to him is to hear the sound of dementia.
Acting normal for 3 minutes would be a record for Trump.
Yeah, I mean I wouldn’t necessarily attribute it to someone buying such a specific type of tech, but in many other hobbies it wouldn’t be unusual
I think there are two types of people you could consider in this scenario.
The first being an individual who has a genuine interest in a hobby, they research what gear would be the best for what they want to do, and then puts in the work to gain expertise.
The second type is where I think the derision is focused. These are the people who walk into a store, and either ask for the top of the line gear or just buy whatever is the most expensive, without putting any thought into it, and don’t really care about the hobby. In other words, the hobby is performative, and the gear becomes a status symbol.
I don’t have any ill will towards someone buying the best gear for their needs, regardless of skill level, but if you’re just doing it for show, I think that’s fair game for mockery.
Yeah that is weird, though it’s common to putting things in jars and still refer to the process as canning. I guess jarring already has another, vastly different, meaning.
Yeah, I feel horrible for those kids. His wife also at least seems to have at least realized what a mistake they had made. Her husband though, has done nothing but double down on staying in Russia.
There was a homophobic family from here in Sasktachewan (the Feenstra’s), who sold their family farm and dragged their 8 kids to Russia to escape the “far leftist” and “lgbtq ideology” here in Canada. Guess it didn’t work out too well for them since they had their bank accounts frozen (possibly assets seized) and then proceeded to speak ill of Russia (including they don’t speak English there) only to have to publicly apologize and eat their words.
That’s how conspiracy theory evolves into religion.
Yeah, everyone knows you have to at least say it in a funny way while waving a stick around.
Lol, yup generally true. Though I’ll say I’ve seen one or two driven by women out west here.
If you see a truck in Canada with our flag on it, high probability it’s also got an ‘F Trudeau’ sticker and an asshole driver.
Sorry, I was just referring to the interview itself.
Soon to be adapted into a trilogy of major motion pictures, directed by Peter Jackson.
*edit: revised wording.
Elon’s statements are the verbal equivalent of getting drunk and vomitting on a wall. Stuff comes up that you never expected to see, it creates a huge mess, and whatever sticks, sticks.
