dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

JD Vance is so comically bad that it's kind of insane that anyone in the republican party agreed to let this guy run.

He wore a name tag that stated he was Peter Thiel's favorite blood boy.

It makes sense if you look at Vance the way they do - as a big sack full of cash. Trump is burning through campaign cash on court fees and lawyers so that was the whole decision

God what I'd give (ok... nothing) to see receipts from Thiel paying for Trump's shit. It's pennies for him anyway. He could drop a $1B and never notice. What an incredible society.

All the reporting points to Elon Musk, and his two kids convincing him to go for JD Vance while he was in shock from the attempted assassination. So I am dying at the thought he listened to his kids and now he is fucked.

I'm happy they did tbh.

What do Peter Thiel and Elon Musk love so much about him? I don't get the appeal to them.

They're all identical types of weird chuds.

They're fucking stupid and trump completely alienated himself from the (heavy fucking quotes) "reasonable Republicans" that he had around during the initial presidency

If it wasn't for Biden drop out he would still have a fucking chance too, that's how much of a joke the Dems have been. Idk what's happening anymore though. Here there be monsters, uncharted territory when the Dems start doing politics correctly. It's a bit frightening just from how foreign it feels

It was a wink wink nudge nudge to the outright Nazis that are sucking trump off currently and he fucked the hell up
