Wasn’t it the CEO of NBC at the time who said in 2016 “Trump is bad for America but great for us”?

Meanwhile, the Business As Usual Party has decided that their only mistake was that they didn’t stick closely enough to their usual 1992 playbook.

Internal critics point to ignoring vulnerable people who weren’t widely accepted as standard humans in 1992 in stead of actively vilifying them as their biggest mistake.

True to form, they then warmly welcomed their new fascist overlords in between receiving legal bribes from billionaires and their corporations to be extremely weak when negotiating for workers and generous towards said billionaires when writing legislation and regulations.

I was in a band called Nostalgic Brainrot in the mid 80s (which is the entire decade).

We only played covers of the worst disco songs we could find. We were not very successful, or even widely tolerated.

That was my first thought too, followed by “should’ve tasted diesel in stead” 😄

Unless of course you’re either SUPER rich, a white supremacist, or both. Then cops are your ride or die bffs.

Oui.

Now I’ve got that great Prince song stuck in my head! Thanks, sincerely 😁

You say stop, I say go, go, go!

Step 2: don’t not be obnoxious

Step 3 can be deliberately missing the point in any way, including commenting on Lemmy.

Still no notes

“Tony Stark is a motherfucker” ~ Entropy

Not much, he’s just a right-libertarian edgelord who thinks he knows everything about everything and everyone 🤷

Some heroes are also assholes and that’s ok.

For example, Churchill kicked so much military and speechifying ass that hardly anyone remembers the rest of his personality or his domestic policy positions.

By all accounts, Che Guevara was an absolute monster as a person, but he was still a heroic freedom fighter as well.

And then there’s the music of Smashing Pumpkins vs the politics and personality of Billy Corgan…

Yes, it goes well with telling someone to check themself (for errors) before they wreck themself (with said errors) 😉
