Gutted public education and tik tok university? (yt, insta, w.e. )
throw in the 4 years of constant covid reinfections and their subsequent lasting effects on the brain for a large percentage of the population too 
Sorry the covid made me forget about that part
TikTok University and TikTok Hype Public Housing
did yall find this hock ptooie thing funny or am i just an old scold now
I mean, it was a mildly amusing off the cuff response in a dumb tiktok. The way that straight men have collectively lost their fucking shit over it needs to be studied extensively.
#notallstraightmen
But maybe I'm just an old scold too?
I should have been more precise, sorry. I'm referring to a certain type of dumb guy. I think this kind of guy does not believe women can be funny or have sexual desires, so this clip is truly groundbreaking material for them.

uhh what response by straight men? my friend showed it to me and I found it mildly amusing.
The manosphere / red pill losers believe that the West has fallen because women aren't pristine virgins until marriage, and thus some lady talking about sex acts offhandedly and positively is a huge trigger for misogynists who point at her and go "this is what made Rome collapse". It's incoherent nonsense based around seeking post-hoc justification for hating women
Oh my god. I just thought it was some good advice. My reaction was 'true'.
It's a lady making a blue joke and everyone is taking it way overboard

Sorry, I should say chud-adjacent. The Joe Rogan demographic. They've taken a clip that you might chuckle at and then move on and act like it's the funniest thing anyone's ever said.

It's almost like young women dislike Trump because he took away their rights for reproductive healthcare.
Or he's just a permanently sweaty, ugly old man, and a lady in her twenties is straightforwardly not interested in doing sex acts with him because she's not attracted to him. Ask the Beto "hold you down" lady about this
Oh wait the question was about FUCKING Trump and not voting for him? ffs even his most diehard fans think he's an ugly bastard.
Yeah it's just "would you give Trump the hock tuah?"
To me the Hawk Tuah meme represents a full return to 2016 era politics. The Hawk Tuah meme has a lot of similarities with the Harambe meme. Both memes are a dog whistle. Both memes are popular with right wingers. Both meme were used as a fake presidential campaign. Harambe 2016 and Hawk Tuah 2024.
The similarities between 2016 and 2024 is that we have 2 presidential candidates that are extremely unliked. The meme represents a sort of political nihilism. To the people who don't follow politics, the meme is a venting of frustrations.
The Democratic party candidate was forced by an obviously fake primary, in 2016 the Democratic party threw there full support behind Hillary from the start and in 2024 nobody even ran against Biden. In 2020, there was an illusion of choice between a dozen centrist liberal dipshits who all became Joe's cabinet members. Also Democrats were convinced that Biden was going to be a return to the Obama era (good from the liberal's perspective), now they realize that it is not.
The Hawk Tuah meme is a dog whistle for the right wing dating culture and right wing sexual frustration. It's a woman with a southern accent (chud aesthetic) who is enthusiastic about a sexual act. The meme comes from a right wing style street interview where they ask her questions about how many sexual partners she's had and stuff like that. The purpose of the show is meant to create a framing of pre-existing patriarchal narratives. Like they ask a woman if she is single and how many sexual partners she has had, then they tell the audience that she is single because she had too many sexual partners or some other patriarchal reason. The purpose of the type of show is blame women for the sexual frustration that right wing men experience, their political beliefs making them unfuckable.
The liberals claiming Hawk Tuah as anti Trump happened well over a week ago, it was like 10 days ago. I was intentionally not posting it on hexbear because I was wishing the meme would go away. The reason that liberals want to claim the Hawk Tuah meme is because it is mainly popular with chuds. They think that if the woman from the meme (that chuds like) is against Trump then chuds are owned or something.

“I don’t want to be in the middle of it. Whoever you want to be president, that’s your business. What’s my opinion to you?” Welch says. “And I was talking about looks-wise. Donald Trump, I’m sure you’re a nice man, but you ain’t getting the hawk from me. He’s old enough to be my granddaddy.”
In fact, not many people are chosen to hear Welch’s catchphrase. While she did offer it up at the Zach Bryan show, she claims she didn’t say it once while judging that bikini contest in Fort Lauderdale and prefers to keep the two words close to the vest so they don’t lose their luster — even if some days she wishes she never said them at all.
“I don’t like attention on me and now it’s all over me,” she says. “I can’t even walk in Walmart without somebody coming up to me going, ‘Are you her?’
“They all think they know so much about me,” she continues, “but nobody knows shit about me.”
“Do you want them to?” I ask.
Welch shoots a devious smile. “Don’t worry. They will before it’s over with.”
In this Rolling Stone interview from today, she says that she is taking an apolitical stance. Doesn't really matter either way.
Harambe was a dogwhistle? Did I completely miss something?
No this is just nonsensical ramblings. Anyone who feels the need to analyze the relationship between political collapse and drunk people saying dumb things need vitamin D
I am analyzing the memes of right wing political ideology, not drunk people. There is a relationship between right wing culture and political collapse. I'm sorry that you don't see it. There is no need for you to be hostile, unless you really like the hawk tuah meme.

Yes. Harambe was a racist dog whistle popularized by 4chan. Harambe memes often say that if Harambe hadn't been killed, then the world would been better. Harambe was killed to protect a black child who had fell into the gorilla enclosure. Racist people blame black people for Harambe being killed. The dogwhistle is racism. If you didn't know this, then it was a successful dogwhistle. Just google "harambe racist", there's dozens of news articles about it.
Huh. Fascinating, that one flew right by me and usually they do not. Might because of not being from the US though.
Nah, I just learned this right now and I'm from the US.

in 2024 nobody even ran against Biden.
I feel compelled to point out that this is not true at every opportunity. People did run against Biden but the DNC refused to acknowledge their candidacies.
Also, how common is it to run against a sitting president in your own party? I don't think I've ever even heard of that happening before this year.

You aren't a true patriot unless you're willing to suck trumps cock.
Shout out to #1 USA patriot Ivanka Trump
I dont think that really happens for him anymore...
I'm sorry, but isn't it about how to give a proper hand job? I haven't seen the original video, but "hawk Utah spit on that thing" sounds like handy techs to me.
it was her answer to "whats one trick that makes a guy go crazy?" she gave the most generic response possible. i think its epic bacon millenials who saw that and thought it was the funniest thing ever
3.75 out of 5 Pinocchios for Honk Terry
What's your one trick that makes the proletariat go crazy?
.... to that, she said no.
That's pretty much the same thing to the chuds.
I hope this woman is able to secure the bag without having to debase herself. The thirst ppl have over a young woman saying something funny is pretty creepy.
