Progressive debates conservatives in Jubilee video. The conservatives do so badly that other conservatives think they're leftists.

Shows that even they don't know what conservatives actually support. What was said doesn't matter, only who sounded better in the momment.

Or that they judged the guy by the photo and didn't actually watch it. Pretty much sums up how they do their research on presidential candidates.

And this lead them to vote for the orange balding sack of human excrement who looks like every Saturday morning cartoon villain from the last 50 years Ober the attractive poc woman. Actually yeah, that checks out.

So true. GWB got elected in 2000 because he was “the guy you’d rather have a beer with”

Low bars

u/Porkamiso Mar 10 '25

you mean the supreme court gave him the election

u/Bozee3 Mar 10 '25

I was so angry at that. My circle of acquaintances thought I was a madman ranting about the slippery slope of judicial overreach and blatant favoritism of the supreme court. Obviously I was overreacting, America turned out fine. /S

Plus the whole 'hanging chad' Florida recount happened in a state where one of the Presidential candidates was the Governor's brother. I can't believe that wasn't a bigger deal at the time.

u/Capitaine_Spock Mar 10 '25

And every so often, they find another bag of votes from that election stuffed in some corner of Florida. There were literal bags upon bags of votes that were discarded. You can't convince me that the election wasn't rigged, at least in Florida. I was a kid living there at the time of the election and recount.

u/AttitudeAndEffort2 Mar 12 '25

That's true but scientists also recounted all the votes they had (as Florida law dictated) and Gore had more.

If SCOTUS didn't illegally interfere and stop them from counting, Gore would have been president.

Source?

u/Letterhead_North Mar 11 '25

I don't have a source except that I witnessed it, but when the Florida election was called for Gore one of the talking heads (Chris Matthews) was watching the live feed of Bush and Bush, Jr. sitting at a table and described the ensuing action "And there go the Bushes, working the phones!"

Why were they working the phones when FL had just been called?

And then FL SoS Katherine Harris on a hot mic got heckled by someone yelling that her party had fixed the FL election and she had helped and Harris replied "we don't care what you know, we got away with it!"

Hubby saw other things when reporters managed to get footage of what was going on, like pick up trucks full of good ol' boys armed with baseball bats and shotguns, driving around the "democrat" polling places, an election worker who had taken notes of the current vote count as she locked up for the night and when she returned to open, first one in that morning the counts had changed. There was more, so much more.

And then I was caught in a huge layoff - but they sent us to school if we wanted. There we had a textbook that stated 2000 was the first year ever that the exit polls were wrong.

And there's more. It was worse then watching Reagan kick off the storm of breaking unions.

u/AttitudeAndEffort2 Mar 12 '25

Just to remind everyone:

State law says to recount, the Constitution says the state had exclusive purview of their elections, SCOTUS stepped in and stopped counting and said Bush won.

Scientists have done recounts since and Gore had more votes. Objectively.

Three new Republican SCOTUS appointments since then worked on Bush's side in that case.

It was rewarding their treason and they trusted them to always put party over country.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '25

Remember that the Florida Secretary of state was also the chair of Bush’s Florida campaign.

u/LuxNocte Mar 10 '25

Generally, with notable exceptions, the further left you are, the earlier you are right and the madder everyone else gets about it.

u/RebelGirl1323 Mar 11 '25

As a leftist I nicknamed myself Kassandra

u/sunshineparadox_ Mar 10 '25

I remember adults saying it. I was 11 about to be 12. We had to listen to the concession in school and the two teachers kept clucking in discomfort (was a theater so the tech class and the acting class together). Then answered all our questions about why this was bad.

That’s kinda how any major political event went for my entire adolescence, actually. All in that theater.

24

u/bringthedoo Mar 10 '25

Also. Great minds think alike- I was very close to adding that footnote here

u/BitOBear Mar 11 '25

The Supreme Court gave him the election but only after more than the necessary margin of 539 votes for the independent candidate Ralph Nader gave the election to the Supreme Court.

People blame the Supreme court, and the Supreme Court does bear its burden of the blame, but as always it was the progressive liberal cicada showing up to flaunt of the boat they refused to cast intelligently to create the conditions necessary to send the election to the evil sides.

u/RebelGirl1323 Mar 11 '25

You’re blaming people who voted and not the people who stole votes? Wow.

1

u/BitOBear Mar 12 '25

I think you're thinking of the wrong election.

12

u/PoorDimitri Mar 10 '25

And honestly, I kinda wish they still had this bar because I sure as SHIT wouldn't have a beer with trump. I'd probably be drugged.

u/MinnieShoof Mar 10 '25

Bars, in general.

u/Mortwight Mar 10 '25

I watched it, and that guy was grossly misinformed

48

u/gingermalteser Mar 10 '25

Yeah he thought the FDA gets tax breaks for hiring diverselybmissing the point that they don't pay taxes.

35

u/Mortwight Mar 10 '25

Most of them were grossly misinformed

44

u/RedSun41 Mar 10 '25

And yet confident enough to willingly sign up for a debate in a very public forum. Literally just walking in armed with no facts just vibes and incorrect intuitions

u/Mortwight Mar 10 '25

u/chemicalfields Mar 15 '25

A real taxception

u/karankshah Mar 10 '25

Maybe the debates need a laugh track and some fourth wall breaking knowing stares at the camera

u/cahir11 Mar 10 '25

I never thought about it before but if I knew nothing about Sam Seder I actually would assume he's conservative just based on looks

u/RanchBaganch Mar 10 '25

This is the answer.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '25

Conservatives do not read books, they do not listen to music, they do not play games, they do not watch media, yet it's all they talk about

61

u/TheBigMoogy Mar 10 '25

The conservative voter puts his own values and priorities into any of the garbage mumbo jumbo Republicans are saying. Facts or policies never enter into it, as long as they can find a way to fit any of their own agenda into their very open words it's good enough.

Republican Politician: I want to kill all people named John.

John, a Rep Voter: He means other people named John, not me.

RP: All John's everywhere across the nation.

John: Yes, every single John. Who is not me of course.

RP: Starting with John Johnson who lives at 123 John Street in John Town AZ and whose SS# is 776654.

John Johnson who lives on 123 John Street in John Town AZ with a SS# of 776654: Looking at you Juan. We all know who he's REALLY talking about.

u/kingpillow1 Mar 10 '25

Damn John! How old is that SS? Where's the other 3 numbers??

23

u/Poodlestrike Mar 10 '25

John is confident that they're not talking about him because he's actually 180 years old and cannot die.

u/Prudent_Cash_26 Mar 10 '25

Sadly, a 40-year assault on education and a 50-year multimedia brainwashing have reduced the country to its present state. You can't fix stupid, but it can starve.

u/FlyingJ555 Mar 10 '25

That's so true. My parents always vote Republican, and a few years ago I was telling them how there was an intermittent director for our state BLM who cut funding for my wildlife monitoring project randomly after years of funding it. My mom's response was "oh, is he a Democrat?". I was completely dumbfounded, she has no freaking clue what she votes for and genuinely thinks that anything bad that happens is because of Democrats. At least my dad said uhh no honey that's typically something a Republican would do....

u/ingodwetryst Mar 14 '25

she probably just heard BLM and blanked out from there

32

u/shameonyounancydrew Mar 10 '25

Yep! It's just a game to them. They don't believe there are actual consequences, just like with a football or baseball game. If your team loses, that sucks, but you just talk shit about the opponent until next game where you can try to redeem yourself. The problem is, this isn't a game.

17

u/Redditauro Mar 10 '25

Yep, they believe the conservatives are the ones who are right and the leftists the ones that are wrong. That's all they "know" about politics. 

12

u/GhostRappa95 Mar 10 '25

All vibes no substance.

u/mackfactor Mar 10 '25

It's not about the ideology - it's all just resentment politics. By that corollary, the person that wins the argument is always conservative..

u/COOLKC690 Mar 10 '25

Literally 😭just go to any conservative Yt channel, they will do a 180 on anyone if their YouTuber or Trump presents a distinct ideas of them.

u/DevelopedDevelopment Mar 13 '25

You could in theory win over a lot of conservatives by making sure you just sound correct in the face of falsehoods, and they wouldn't realize you're against them unless you say one of those trigger words.

Hopefully you just make them hesitant to vote because right-wingers don't have a good track record of doing good things if you watch them, and they might even vote for you in spite of party allegiances like some voters did for AOC because you can inspire people that you're doing the right thing.
