Remember when we thought he was hosed and were laughing about how he totally wasted this moment?

[–] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 99 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

The thing is, he DID waste it.

And then Kamala hired Hillary's campaign advisers, got rid of her 2 most popular slogans (We're not going back + They are weird) and started hugging Dick Cheney's right-wing daughter. Kamala's campaign is somehow more embarrassing and incompetent than Hillary's, and that's saying something.

hired Hillary's campaign advisers

Lol Lmao

I choose to believe that it’s the happy birthday tweet that did her in

[–] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 53 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Nah, objectively and logically it was when she said who-must-go must go.

[–] REgon@hexbear.net 8 points 1 hour ago

She really tried to get all the jinx's

The more I see this happening the more I believe it

It's like The League of Shadows from Batman is working to sabotage everyone who says it.

He wasted it, but he was playing against the Washington Generals in this election cycle.

Imagine still being correct 100 years after your death

seems like a good time to tell you that you're one of my favorite posters, and this is a perfectly exemplary post 🎉🎉🎉🎉

hilarious and perfect, which is exactly what I've come to expect from you ❤️

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 52 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I'm on r/politics so I can enjoy some classic reddit-logo posts

[–] Coca_Cola_but_Commie@hexbear.net 9 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Oh, wow, I haven't visited r/politics in so many years. This is something else. A real blast of nostalgia.

Seeing these awful, smug people so lost and confused and angry almost makes me feel good. They have no idea what's going on.

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 2 points 20 minutes ago* (last edited 19 minutes ago)

That is the only reason I reopened the sub. This was the first time for me in 8 years

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 40 points 4 hours ago (1 children)
[–] real@hexbear.net 26 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Can someone please explain it to me?

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 54 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

You see, the chapotraphouse subreddit was big supporters of Bernie Sanders so when he lost the Dem election in 2019 there was chaos there mostly coping and the most upvoted Post in that time became a Picture of Lenin saying "and were did that bring you? Back to me" and the MLs started talking about the failures of electoralism in liberal democracy and radicalising the bernie people

It was a fun time

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 hour ago

I think I saw it in the 2016 election too

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 16 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

I knew I first saw the meme there but is that actually its origin too?

[–] asa_red_heathen@hexbear.net 29 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Technically the quote "And where did that bring you? Back to me." is a line Thanos says in Avenger's Endgame. It became a larger meme that then birthed the chapo bit and you know the rest.

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 18 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

FUCK yes thank you I knew there was something else to it, I've seen exactly zero MCU shit since Iron Man so I forgot about that

[–] Castor_Troy@hexbear.net 15 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I've seen exactly zero MCU shit since Iron Man

gold-communist

[–] dustbunnies@hexbear.net 8 points 1 hour ago

where's mine? I've seen none of them 💅

[–] REgon@hexbear.net 3 points 1 hour ago

Also Lenin kinda looks like Thanos in this picture. There's a similar shot of Thanos, I think it's actually the shot where he says that line.

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 13 points 3 hours ago

Yep, in the 2019 bernie lost, sometime people reposted it but with bernie was the first time

[–] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 36 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Lenin was the man who pushed for the socialists in Russia to rise up in active revolution when nearly all other socialist leaders wanted to collaborate with the bourgeois government. He single-handedly made sure the October Revolution was launched an the USSR was created. He also spent lots of years arguing against other socialists who thought working inside electoral systems was the "right" way to bring about progressive changes.

PTSD from 2020

[–] Saleri@hexbear.net 25 points 4 hours ago

bernie can still win actually

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 29 points 4 hours ago

I don't know how it's possible that both Lenin and Schwarzenegger remind me of my dad, but here I am I guess.

[–] ComradeRat@hexbear.net 23 points 4 hours ago

damn to think that image has haunted my dreams for over four years now

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 15 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Up to pee!

Cause I'm getting off the couch to pee.
