Utterly fucking incredible. No one said anything, posted any memes. He just posted this out of the blue. Just fucking incredible. They will march in to hell screaming at everyone around them for not voting hard enough. Like just what the fuck is this? Who is this for, now, in 2024, after this debate? What do they think posting this bullshit will accomplish? Biden just spent 90 minutes shitting himself on stage and failing to finish sentences and their immediate move is to scold people before they even start saying the emperor has no clothes?

"the chicken is stuffed with butter and then braised in the blood of a hundred thousand conscripts maimed and slaughtered to ensure europe is forever dependent on american natural gas supplies," the flight attendant says. "it's chicken kyiv. it comes with your choice of geno-side."

You think it's silly to choose between two bad things?

Well what if it was a good thing vs a bad thing!?

Checkmate, lefties.

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 53 points 11 months ago (2 children)

the chicken is also covered in shit and stuffed with broken glass, but the liberals keep insisting that it's the better choice because there's still some chicken in there. somewhere

[–] ReadFanon@hexbear.net 24 points 11 months ago

"Would you rather eat the dish that is 100% platter of shit with broken glass in it or the dish that is 99% platter of shit with broken glass in it and 1% chicken?"

"Um, no thank you."

"See? This is exactly what's wrong with this country!! 😡😡"

[–] Egon@hexbear.net 23 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

And the pieces of chicken that are in there are so old they're rotten and also they eulogized Strom Thurmond and wrote the crime bill

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 41 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The way no one seems to care at all about the genocide in Yemen continues to just be this fucking thorn stuck in my mind that never stops hurting. Something went terribly wrong at some point for all these supposed defenders of human rights to be completely indifferent to the brutal murder of somewehre between two and four hundred thousand people, many of them children, killed with starvation and dehydration. And countless more, especially children, permanently harmed and crippled by malnutrition. It's wrong. People should care.

[–] Antiwork@hexbear.net 48 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Then you ask did any of the glass get in the chicken as well and they tell you yes and so you choose to obviously not eat anything on the plane because they're serving shit with glass in it

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

Also the chicken is rotten and not actually a chicken, but a less stinky platter of shit that the attendant insists on calling a "chicken" and if you point out its shit she'll call you ableist or a transphobe. If you skip the meal she'll decapitate you. If you decide on a third dish she calls you unrealistic and say you can't have it

You choose the chicken without a critical thought

You receive salmonella.

[–] MalarchoBidenism@hexbear.net 39 points 11 months ago

Every election cycle liberals pull out the obnoxious food analogies. debord-tired

"Hillary is like a hamburger and Trump is like a big stinky poo turd. I know some of you wanted pizza but they don't serve pizza so it's either the hamburger or the smelly poo big poopy turd of shit poop!!!!" so-true

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 38 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Imagine being on an airplane that's boarding. It's an unusual airliner. It only has one pilot. The pilot's name is Biden. Before you got on board - you happened to sit next to him for an hour in the airport. And you watched him and he was just like he was on the debate stage. It would be cause for worry and you'd want off that plane. The meal would be the least of your worries.

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Average Spirit Airlines flight

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The big airlines are apparently lobbying to only have to put one pilot on the plane so they can weasel out of paying pilots enough money to cover years of expensive training plus a very expensive job. Lol. Lmao. I hate this fucking country.l

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The people lobbying for that change should be put to death

Typical tankie lies.

Biden wouldn't be able to climb the stairs to get into the cockpit in the first place so your terrible analogy is completely deboonked. I am very smart and very liberal.

[–] CarbonScored@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

This is my favourite counter to the dumb metaphor.

Libs really are just ordering the chicken instead of immediately realising none of the food could possible by trustworthy, and the whole airline is fundamentally flawed for getting to this point.

"Chicken please." this-is-fine

[–] BynarsAreOk@hexbear.net 34 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The desperate need to always make analogies just to defend Biden is something else. Analogies should only be used if they add something to make understanding the subject easier. But it also assumes the other side is not intelligent enough to understand the subject in the first place.

You wouldn't use analogies to explain the newest Quantum mechanics to Einstein. You could use them to introduce them to a person with a poor math/physics background maybe. But at the end you wouldn't assume the person who "kind of gets it" through an analogy to actualy come out knowing about said topic. You teach an analogy to a kid to help, you don't make the analogy the entire subject and replace the actual topic.

So yeah, all these dipshits using analogies are just saying "hey you pathetic manchild that doesn't understand how democracy is supposed to work, here let me dumb it down for you all why you need to vote for my candidate. So imagine a restaurant menu..."

What do they expect? A bow and a thank you mr democrat asshole I understand democracy now and will proceed to vote for the person you just told me to. The only response should rather be a punch in their face.

I look down at my "chicken" and find that it is a platter of shit with rusty nails in it

Once you notice how these lib columnist assholes only ever articulate their terrible ideas as castle-in-the-sky hypotheticals because reality is too dicey, you never unsee it. The Freidman Special.

[–] ReadFanon@hexbear.net 16 points 11 months ago

The peak of liberal political analysis is just analogy.

Trump is Voldemort and Hillary is Hermione Granger.
Trump is Jojo Siwa and Biden is Billie Eilish.

Fucken, whatever it is all it amounts to is this aesthetic "I don't like the bad thing because the bad thing is tacky and lowbrow/threatens to destroy the world but I like the good thing because it's nice and refined and clever/is the thing that's going to save the world".

That's all they can ever do.

"Biden is like liquid medicine: not something that is your preference to drink, it's bitter and uncomfortable but ultimately you know that what is more important is your own health–the health of the nation and of the world–than drinking coke instead.

Meanwhile Trump is like ipecac. People drink it because they think it will get rid of the problem and it might just do that but you're going to make yourself very sick in the process, you're going to create a huge mess, and you will feel weakened and full of regret for your choice by the end of it. Then you are going to need someone to come along and start cleaning up the mess that your poor decision-making has wrought."

It's so incredibly smug and self-congratulatory. Usually it's really wordy and the analogy becomes more tortured as the whole thing progresses.

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 26 points 11 months ago

Only reasonable response to this shit:

Fuck off and die.

That's actually a pretty good analogy for why its sensible to choose neither lol.

[–] alvvayson@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 11 months ago (16 children)

Indeed.

If you present this option to a full plane, would it really be surprising if half the plane chose to skip a meal?

Would you blame them?

Why do politicians think they are entitled to get votes just because the other option is even worse?

Not an American. If I were, I would vote Biden. But I also fully understand why a lot of Americans won't vote for him.

[–] Snackuleata@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wow so relatable. When was the last time airlines had meals? Every time I fly I'd get a bag of pretzels and a cup of soda.

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Last time I flew Tokyo to Beijing on China Eastern they served a meal. Just a 3 hour flight at kinda an awkward time so I didn't even expect it.

If they've got a platter of shit as an option, their chicken is going to be an E. coli risk.

The rational response is to say "I'm not hungry."

[–] TemutheeChallahmet@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

Libs really need to understand what messages only serve to virtue signal to their in group versus convince a neutral bystander. This type of smug self-congratulatory horseshit is less convincing to the average normie scrolling by than posting that Tom Hanks is going to harvest their kid's andrenochrome. And this stuff makes the chuds gleeful because it reads like you are coping by unraveling.

How is the chicken cooked? With a marinade of shit and glass obviously!

[–] macabrett@lemmy.ml 15 points 11 months ago (7 children)

not shown in this metaphor: everyone around you who got the chicken is shitting their pants waiting for the bathroom, which is coincidentally where they're getting the shit for the other meal from
