i love how they will defend their position then do an instant 180° when they find the truth, and will gaslight you that they were always correct.

the shorts from Klepper and the like are hilarious (and extremely disappointing)
there was one recently where he asked a guy about if Biden said the "in 10 years I'll be dating you thing" and the guy knew he was about to be made a fool of and called it, then it happened, and he just walked Way before he could be shown Trump saying it

I've been trying to get a rumor going that Vance is poisoning Trump. The more pissed maga is at him when he takes office the better.
-
Have you seen Trump's ankles? That doesn't suddenly happen. He must have been poisoned. I wonder how long Vance has been planning this...
-
It'd be in line with what I've read of Vance. He'll do anything for power, and the fact that he achieved it is its own justification in his mind.
His book is effectively "I grew up in rural Kentucky. I escaped, so everyone who didn't is shit and deserves to be shit on."
-
And even that I'd a lie. IIRC he grew up in the suburbs. His "rural man of the people" thing is a pure fabrication.

I’ve been through this…
There’s no contradiction.
If a Democrat's doing it, it’s bad and government corruption/taxpayer waste.
If a Republican's doing it, it’s okay. It’s overblown.
Sometimes there’s whataboutisms, but sometimes there’s not, and that’s all there is to it.
:/
Reminds me of discussions with the more extreme tankies. At some point I just don’t know what to say and have to change gears.

It never was an ideological fight, but one based on group identity.
-
Group think. Definitely.
Because thinking for your self takes to much work. Let us think for you!
the Republicans, probably.

Takes me back to the days when Dilbert went right wing and was still open. You went there to laugh with the right wing comments. The comic hadn't been funny for as long time by then. I guess they didn't like that and Scott put everything behind a paywall.
-
dilbert still exists?
-
As the classic comic, no. The writer went Trump really hard during covid. Eventually newspapers dropped the comic after it started to go right wing and the author said some questionable things. It went members only after that but that too seems to have died.

Here's a 50 min video about Adams going nuts

i watched the short lived dilbert series back in the day and it was hilarious. it also didn't feel right wing but then again maybe I wasn't super aware of the tells back then. i also never read the comic strips so maybe the tv show just had good writers.
but even at its face you'd think the author of a comic where the entire premise is that complete idiots who just happen to have money for whatever reason and add nothing of value can make even more by exploiting people with the actual skills, making the entire work dynamic a farce and the hierarchy a joke... you know... would be more left leaning.
but that's why you never should ally with people who agree on problems alone but must agree on solutions as well: I'm sure this dickhead thinks work life is shit because of DEI or jews or something.

I read a book he wrote when I was a teenager and thought it was pretty good although there was some weird stuff in there about like manifesting events into reality with your mind or something like that but yeah that doesn't seem consistent with the type of person he has become. He had some kind of stroke or something before he started getting crazy with the right wing stuff which some people say could have contributed to it. He also seems like one of those "I'm smarter than everyone" contrarian types so he could also just be an asshole that bought into MAGA.

He did kind of seize the means of production at Intel last week

It's fun. Someone was going on about how corrupt Biden was and burisma and all that shit. I said "yeah hunter's private business got a 2 billion dollar investment from Ukraine they need to investigate that. Oh wait, no that was Jared kushner and the Saudis. Whoops."
