It's a human rights violation to prevent him from smoking crack every 20 minutes

Rare good thing from the US. Gotta be honest I do not understand the ironic adoration of Hunter Biden by the online US left at all. He's a terrible person that deserves to go to jail. From dodgy prostitution scandals, taking advantage of women, to corruption in Ukraine (which is very suspicious in hindsight given the Ukraine war and all the money that is exchanging hands currently).

american leftists "like" hunter in the same way we "like" trump, they're funny while also being terrible and there's fuck-all we can do about it so better to laugh

This guy doesn't see that comrade Trump has synthesized Marxism-Leninism-Maoism-Gonzaloism with Burger Characteristics!

Folks, the bourgeoisie, they're no good trump-anguish

More and more people are saying it a-little-trolling

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

(we need a macro or bot for the comrade Trump pasta):

Folks, the bourgeois, they're no good, more and more people are saying it. All these workers— the biggest, we have the biggest workers— very handsome workers come up to me and say, Comrade Trump there is a specter haunting Europe, and you know what, they're right. These bourgeois are very nasty people, very very rude, and very unfair to the workers. They are stealing our surplus value and no one is doing anything about it. The proletariat comes up to me every day and says, Comrade Trump will you lead the revolution? And I gotta turn to them and say look, the instruments of capitalism will be used to bring about its destruction, believe me. The means of production, Obama never wanted to seize them. Well guess what? I'm seizing them. Landlords? They're done for folks. Everyone told me— they said, Comrade Trump you won't be the vanguard of the revolution and they would laugh, the media laughed the democrats laughed, guess who's laughing now?

It's a joke nobody likes the guy he's a corrupt piece of shit

[–] Mokey@hexbear.net 48 points 11 months ago

Its funny that hes a piece of shit loser who is a massive stain protected by liberal

[–] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 23 points 11 months ago (8 children)

Seriously, he's a piece of shit, and even ironically saying he's "cool" is fucking stupid. How many lives has he ruined? How many times has he endangered others lives on camera?

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I genuinely don't know. I've only paid attention to it enough to know he smokes crack and a bunch of republican senators were trading his dick pics.

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 10 points 11 months ago

Sounds like a cool dude.

The ironic adoration comes from the fact that liberals cover their ears and eyes completely to Hunter. He is completely off limits to speak of. They want you to believe that a high ranking politician’s kid who has no experience with anything suddenly has qualifications for managing an oil company in a foreign country and that his prostitutes and crack smoking are private affairs while prosecuting anyone who doesn’t have a rich daddy for the same crimes

It also comes from conservatives not giving a shit about any of that and just scream “HUNTER HAD SEX AND SCAMMED A BUNCH OF BUSINESSMEN”

Biden should pardon him I think that would be funny

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 42 points 11 months ago (6 children)

What's the point of being presi if you're not going to pardon your child? Don't tell me Biden just does it for the love of the game.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I actually think he does.

Academically, he was incredibly dumb. He's not nearly as rich as any of his contemporaries that have served for decades, he needed a loan from Obama to pay for his son's medical bills; the obvious implication being, he doesn't accept 'lobbying' the way his colleagues do. He's constantly talking about unity and was always reaching across the isle...

I think he may actually believe in all the garbage he preaches, while being clinically unaware of how stupid he is for it.

Joe Biden doesn't have the conviction and integrity of Joe Stalin.

When Vasily Stalin got captured by Nazis, Joe was like "Yeah if you want to do a prisoner exchange, I'll trade him for a regular German soldier, you're not getting an officer for my idiot son"

Hunter is absolutely hoping his dad loses the election so he can do a lame-duck pardon

The gun guys are suddenly fine with the ATF and federal gun charges. 🤔

And the liberals are crying that he was judged to harshly

[–] Babs@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Remember when Philando Castillo got murdered? NRA just talked about how he shouldn't have been smoking weed. Even the reddit gun weirdos were upset about that one.

If you're going to try one presidential failson then you have to try them all!

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 43 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

Sure is nice to be pro gun and not a fascists so I can say without hypocrisy this is bullshit but also fuck hunter.

The vast majority of gun owners I know told the exact same lie on the exact same form. The difference is the vast majority of those people are currently cheering about justice being served.

It really is hilarious to see the party of personal liberties that is against literally any form of reasonable gun co trol cheer for somebody being forced to self incriminate to get their 2nd ammendment rights taken away, while being part of a death cult for the guy who said "take away the guns first, worry about due process later".

It can not be over emphasized how much these people believe in literally nothing and could not be bigger hypocrites if they were trying.

Also I know pointing out the hypocrisy is pointless.

[–] Droplet@hexbear.net 22 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

You don’t understand how their mind works.

This is revenge against Trump’s conviction. If the Democrats are willing to play dirty, we will respond in kind against Hunter.

There is no contradiction from their perspective. To them, it is the Democrats who are being hypocritical in the first place. It is them killing the hostage because their deterrence has failed.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

That's why I said I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn't matter but on the same side of the coin them believing it's the dems who are being hypocritical also doesn't really matter. They're wrong (in this one specific instance, not saying libs aren't hypocrites) and objective reality is still a thing.

The whole "yea well chuds think it's hypocritical" is why pointing it out doesn't matter in the firstbplace but we shouldn't cede the fact they are wrong, full of shit, and they're the ones being hypocrites.

We should all understand shameless hypocrisy is the cornerstone of their entire worldview but we shouldn't act like that makes their beliefs any less horrendous.

If Hunter converts to Islam in prison, that would make this whole media circus worth it.

So was the laptop thing real? I assumed it wasn't because I only ever heard QAnon types screaming about it. But that was when I was still in lib land.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago

Yeah there was evidence of him doing crimes and shit on it and it was used in trial. But I think the evidence comes down to him texting drug dealers and taking pictures of crack around the time he said no on the form.

[–] CDommunist@hexbear.net 25 points 11 months ago (2 children)

His laptop had evidence of drug/gun/money crimes but Q people were claiming pedo crimes which is false

[–] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I mean while pedo crimes were far fetched, the laptop definitely had evidence of potential sex crimes, which led to Hunter Biden's Pornhub account being discovered(where he allegedly posted videos of himself and others, allegedly including another female family member) , and subsequently wiped off of the internet. It's where all the weird jokes about his penis come from.

I found it very weird how all evidence was wiped off of the internet (only extreme right wing chud sites have the evidence still posted), and how you get treated like a crank if you bring it up now. Definitely lots of suspicious stuff went down there.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (4 children)

I consider myself pretty fucking terminally online and have never heard anything about porn hub account or family member. Is there any good summaries of this.

My understanding was the laptop contained evidence of drug stuff but the blind computer shop owner who couldnt conclusively say it was hunter that dropped it off completely ruined the chain of custody by turning it over to Rudy or another similar chud.
