Thanks.
I hate Twatter so here is an NBC video timestamped to the start. The rest of the show is just Joe talking.
You are the hero that we don’t deserve. Except for me, I totally deserve you ;)
But wait, it goes even deeper
Here is the yewtu.be link so you don’t have to deal with actual YouTube https://yewtu.be/f5cAap8pol0?t=70
When I click it, it just goes to the homepage.
It did for me, too, so I poked around a bit. If i search for just the YouTube video identifier (don’t know the technical term) it brings up the video on yewtube , so this should work:
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=f5cAap8pol0
(It doesn’t seem to like the time appended to the end)
That worked! I love all these YouTube alternatives, I’ll crawl through the mud to use them lol
You mean Xwatter
Quite possibly one of the greatest campaign ads I’ve seen. It’s just too perfect.
It’s extremely intelligent. Using the other side’s words against them. Not only that, he never said a single word in it. Just actions. In a cinematic context it is a great way to tell a story without having to tell the audience.
And not a single dig on the other side. Classy.
Any non-Twitter alternative?
Those replies remind me why I block Twitter on my router.

oof that was bad…hadn’t been there since Space Karen took the wheel.
You know what, maybe I should go back to using Twitter links now that you can’t see the replies anymore…
Reading the replies was a mistake
Well twitter’s rage bait algorithm pushes the right wing trolls to the top (I saw one guy called colarado"““researcher””" was so butthurt he made like 8 replies posting boomer memes) but if you load in more replies there is tonnes of people making positive comments and are getting a lot of likes.
Ouch… you weren’t kidding. And I knew that, but I did it anyway. Shame on both of us I suppose, lol.
How in the world could someone’s naked picture be public domain? Just wondering and asking since you mentioned the Twitter comments.
Bumping this up for visibility
I’m so confused. Who could possibly think these are bad things?
when your entire ideology is based on opposition to what the people you hate are in favor of, well…
Key & Peele covered this pretty well
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/B46km4V0CMY

Hey thanks, SatansMaggotyCumFart!
i have somehow never seen this before. lmao. the dude cutting his tongue off was amazing
You might like the series of Luther, Obama’s anger translator skits they did.

Dude cutting off his tongue was too much
I loved this bit and how accurate and hilarious it still is. But must admit I’m a huge fan.
Especially ‘Luther’ the Anger Translator had me in stitches. Just rewatched and still laughing after all those years.
The upbeat background music is killing me in this video, but I also can’t help but think that MGT is saying these things with a positive voice inflection. Like, this isn’t the wind-up to a “AND THIS IS BAD” shoe being dropped at the end of her cadence. I’m fully surprised at how benevolent her tone of voice is here in describing anything about Biden given her other howler-monkey tendencies.
I detected a hint of sarcasm / sneer in her tone at “urban problems”, but yeah, she really lacks any self awareness at all.
Yeah I could definitely tell that “urban problems” was supposed to be a racist dogwhistle
If you say people and companies are ‘woke’ then you hate all these things.
I wonder if we could get right-wingers to brand themselves as “Napsters” because they’re not “woke”.
The irony is that the same people twenty years ago were telling everyone to wake up.
20?!? I remember the “wake up sheeple” being quite prevalent during the pandemic.
Yea, the lack of judo flipping these things culturally always surprised me. Seems so easy to do but nobody does it. These groups rely on strong actions, behaviors and beliefs. That’s why when one does it they all have to. Like flying flags. Culture jam and gas light them about their identity would be the funniest thing. Take that one idiot that harasses target stores over lgqtb. There is nothing that stops people from also making memes of him reinforcing things like respecting each other and other cool messages to treat LGQTB community with love
Shake up weebles!
Weebles are only meant to wobble. Do not shake the weebles. They will become frightened.
Someone who was paid to read things written in English phonetically without understanding what the clumps of syllables actually mean.
The fact that you’re confused by this just means that yor brain is working correctly.
Meet the Republicans!
The GOP, nazis, kkk, Christians, business people. The list goes on, but you hopefully get the point
Ok when I heard about this I thought it was just going to be amusing, but seeing the actual commercial it’s a fucking masterpiece.
It’s so good there are almost certainly going to be MAGA fans who start accusing Greene of being a secret librul the whole time undermining Tangerine Palpatine.
chef’s kiss
Tangerine Palpatine
Fawkin gold, kid.
I find it amazing how no politicians really call out republican use of “urban” when we all know they mean “black”.
And they still think it’s subtle and clever, and that they “get away with it”… They’re so fucking dumb.
She even got the inflection the way you would if you were using air quotes around a word. Verbal italics, if you will.
If you zoom in enough you’ll see it was actually written into the speech as “uRbAn”
Kenny: “can’t you pick the lock?”
Lee: “what makes you think that?”
Kenny: “you know, because you’re… urban”
Lee: “what did you say?”
Kenny: “sorry I’m from Florida stupid shit comes out my mouth all the time”
It truly depends on context. “Urban” is the nom de guerre of marketing specialists when talking about Black consumers. It’s called the “euphemism treadmill”. Over time, things that were not considered offensive become offensive, and you have to concoct more tactful language. Saying “mentally retarded” used to be a medical term, now it’s “developmentally delayed” and even that is now falling out of vogue.
Do they not get away with it?
They definitely do but let’s not kill their optimism.
Surprisingly, I don’t think it was supposed to mean “black” here. Felt more like the “he’s ignoring everyone not living in a city, something something liberal elites” line to me. Really could go either way though, it’s not like the shit she says makes any sense.
She followed this up yesterday by showing naked Hunter Biden pics on the floor of congress. Super genius lady. The Jews will never catch her sleeping with their space lasers!
Then she posted revenge porn and tweeted it out to minors.
I’m guessing Elon was just fine with that.
Wait, really?
She needs to be investigated immediately!
Fun fact: She won’t be!
The tweet is incorrect. She is immune from civil and criminal penalties due to the Speech and Debate Clause.
Speech and debate protects her on the floor of Congress. It doesn’t protect the website where she posted the revenge porn, or the tweet she sent out to everyone, including minors, sharing the revenge porn.
I didn’t realize she sent out a Tweet with it. The website is more complex. If it’s an official committee website she’s protected.
“they must be an integral part of the deliberative and communicative processes by which Members participate in committee and House proceedings with respect to the consideration and passage or rejection of proposed legislation or with respect to other matters which the Constitution places within the jurisdiction of either House”
I’m not sure about that. Are we really saying that Twitter is an official platform with which members of Congress conduct deliberation and meetings relating to legislation? That would be ridiculous.

Wow MTG really will fuck anything huh?
Unfortunately I don’t look like a space laser, so I’ll just have to allegedly pony up the 50 bucks for an hour of Boebert … allegedly that is
That’s half my rate to fuck Boebert…allegedly.
If some day we find out that MTG was an inside job, a lot of things will start to make sense. I don’t think that’s true though, she just lives in some other reality and shares glimpses with us from time to time.
Don’t taint Magic: The Gathering!
Haven’t Hasbro let that horse bolt a while back?
Wanted to argue, but couldn’t
I know, right? MtG is more of a caked hair ass-crack, whereas this tireless suckhole of a second-hand meatsac couldn’t come close to matching that cheeto-fumed crevasse.
Stop whispering succulent words of pleasure into my ear, succubus! I do not wish to be horny anymore!
I wish someone’d trick her back through whatever gate she squirted through. No idea what they used for bait the first time, though. Rural gym bros?
It’s a dark summoning ritual involving copies of Atlas Shrugged, banjo music and those pickup trucks modified to spew out large clouds of black smoke on command.
You forgot the Zangief cosplayer.
It’s possible to be both. A useful idiot, if you will.

Well played - my proverbial cap is doffed.
I absolutely hate these links about videos without a clear area where the actual video is.
Ffs
I had to click a link to another article that had the link to the video on Twitter 🙄
https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1681424737384435713?s=20
You da real MVP
They don’t post the video because it will lose them clicks and they dont want to promote other content. It’s pathetic and I agree. Even the page has 2 videos in it but nothing related to this.
This is the exact suggestion I saw posted around here when news of the speech was shared. You love to see it
I’ll donate to whatever PAC wants to run this ad on TV in MTGs district nonstop during the next Presidential election.
First post on Lemmy that I’ve bookmarked. That was amazing. How dare Biden do all those things that would benefit average Americans? What an asshole!
Let’s go Dems.
Heck, it is so viral I feel pressured to share it with everyone who uses the internet, and I don’t even one in U.S
Do you have a link directly to the video?
Not sure why the article buried the video but here:
Reading the tweets underneath that video clearly shows that all the smart people left Twitter…
Because it’s clickbait garbage like everything else from The Hill.
thanks
Holy shit why does twitter disable the volume buttons on my phone who on earth thought that was a good idea
Looks like it’s the Connect app, not Twitter’s fault. It’s happening on other sites D:
I’ll be honest I did not watch MTG’s speech, and I don’t know the full context. But I don’t understand how that stuff is supposed to sound negative. She actually wrote that down and had someone proofread it and no one said “actually, this kinda makes it sound like he’s doing good things”
Republicans do not care what people like you think, because you are “socialists” trying to “destroy America”.
A lot of conservatives hate LBJ and think FDR was the beginning of the end. After all, conservatives have been trying to tear down the New Deal since it was implemented.
Actually, Reagan and his trickle-down economics was the beginning of the end.
The context is that she adds the word “socialism” to it. You know, making him sound even cooler.
i wish he was half as cool as they make him sound
Some Republicans genuinely think FDR was a bad president and the social programs he created were bad. They’re also the ones that like Reagan.
While they themselves benefit from social security, Medicare, and union benefits.
I don’t understand these people.
My dad: Unions are what’s wrong with this country. I do everything I can to undermine them in the workplace.
Also my dad: They’re abusing the workers! I can’t even get a day off when I’m deathly ill without getting fired. Why won’t anybody stand up for us?!
Don’t even get me started on healthcare. He’s a diabetic. You’d think it’d be a priority for him.
Was talking with a guy the other day about healthcare, I didn’t start the conversation, he kept saying who’s going to pay for it. I couldn’t get him to understand it’s two fold, you already do, and you won’t be paying as much as you are now with Medicare and insurance.
Or my uncles who’ve all retired with union pensions…
Oh fuck yea. Mines on disability and Medicaid but anything about free healthcare is “communism”. I feel ya.
Sometimes there is hope. My dad was a lifelong conservative. I remember being brought by my parents to anti abortion rallies as a small child. When he got out of the military and joined a civilian job he realized it was dramatically under paid. He then became essentially the founding member for the largest EMS helicopter pilots union… Yes, EMS helicopter pilots used to be paid crappy wages. It took his fight for their benefits and creating a new union to realize that the conservative Republicans were screwing over the working class by manipulating them with social issues like abortion (he has since changed his stance on this as well). My mom on the other hand is still very stuck in her conservative ways while living off of social security, military pension and benefits from my dad’s retirement, and other social programs that help senior citizens; all while still complaining that she doesn’t have enough money and the costs of things being too high.
Yesterday there was that link on the black mayor that the town wouldn’t recognize. One of the passages was about him get free food for the poor in his town and the white rich folks trying to sabotage it, as if feeding hungry people was a bad thing.
Serfs need to be on the edge of starvation in order to work for low wages.
People keep voting for Republicans although Republicans are pretty clearly against any sort of progress and without any sort of critical thinking skills. Let the roads and hospitals and schools fall apart, the only things we need in life are Churches and Retail stores, let everything else burn.
It looks like her words were “taken out of context” and reassembled to produce that gem. I very much doubt those words were just how she strung them together when she spoke them herself
MTG is the poster child of the GOP/Nazi party. Such an ignorant scum bag.

What was she trying to say? Surely she didn’t mean to come off so complementary.
“Socialism bad. Biden doing socialism = Biden bad”
Of course, this only makes sense if the people you’re speaking to all agree that helping our nation’s citizens in any way is a bad thing
She’s speaking to those who get all their “news” from alt-right sources. But if you haven’t been paying attention to alt-right media, none of this will make sense.
I’m not sure it’s an effective campaign strategy, because as we’ve seen, the broader public doesn’t understand the intended message behind these convoluted narratives. And the people who do understand them were never going to vote for a democrat in the first place.
Probably something about the evils of socialism.
Be careful. She might run for president.
Let her. Conservatives would never let a woman be President.
AOC vs MTG 2030
What hellscape of a country have we become that we’re holding a presidential in election in what was supposed to be a midterm year, everything else checks out.
In a PPV cage match!
i’d vote for aoc for president before 99% of congress, but i hate to say i think mtg would destroy her in an actual fight. so in the interest of preventing mtg from putting a dub on the board, i’m gonna have to vote against this idea
AOC was a bartender in NYC I wouldn’t count her out. MTG belongs to the church of CrossFit so unless AOC is a tire my money is on the New Yorker
Need to bring back MTVs Celebrity Deathmatch
The campaign of screeching into the void.
Edit: Don’t worry, easily offended denizens. Marj will bring you unsolicited dick pics to brighten your disposition.
mtg’s campaign will be screeching into the void. aoc’s will be shouting badly needed economic reforms into the void. there’s a difference.
Site doesn’t work properly in my country, anyone got a youtube link to the video?

Thanks! I had heard about this and went to the linked article above hoping to actually see it without having to deal with twitter.
Nah that would have made too much sense - you need to click on just the right in-text hyperlink to find it
Brilliant! Dark Brandon kicking ass on malarkey 😎
