My single favorite report was on this one.
Misleading title, it's not clear this is a parody post.
For those that don't know, it's a parody.
-
It is obvious because of "couches", but apart from that, it could have been 100% Fox "News".
Making parodies in modern times is a difficult business. You make up a joke, just to see that reality just overtook you with the pedal to the metal.
-
It sucks that I was unsure at "unemployed minors," because the party is overtly pro-child labor and that bad at optics.
-
-
Honestly the only thing that threw me off is taxes on couches. Otherwise I would've thought this was real
-
That was where I figured it out too.
-
-
I really can't tell with this reality anymore
-
I honestly didn't believe you until I saw the "Tax on corporate profits, couches"
-
-
It's fake, a repost from a "humor" Reddit post:
-
I feel like this could be on fox news and they would lap it up.
-
I feel like this will be shared uncritically by people who sincerely oppose women having "unsupervised female health decisions" et al.
-
-
Is that a real screen? Some of those seem mask off even by Fox's standards.
-
No
-
Seriously, I wouldn't be shocked if it was real. But it definitely looks fake. Especially with the couch bit.
-
Gotta think about it because the ‘right’ ‘wing’ is pretty weird and fox is a fire in a bin outside a Gregs in Rotherham but no, the couch fucker tax is a giveaway.
-
-
-
Unsupervised female health decisions? Is this a real thing you would see on the television in the USA?
-
Its sad that we are at least two who would legitimately not know if this is a meme/joke or irl in the US...
Edit: seems like we're more than two..!
-
Couches. If it’s a couch, it’s probably parody.
Remember, trump has said they’re not talking about couches.
Edit: For the record though, look for the “what a monster” interview. I can't seem to find the original clip
-
If it had been real, they would have chosen different phrasing, but mean the same thing.
-
-
The wingnuts are so messed up I had to read this twice and really try to reassure myself it wasn't real.
-
I realized when I got to "couches."
-
I could tell by "LGBTQIA+" and "Rights", also the phrasing of the medical care one.
-
-
-
Stop it, stop it. I already like the guy. Geez. But really, great joke.
-
Meanwhile Trump is proudly sharing clips of his promise to start the largest mass deportations in the history of the country.
Both sides though.
-
"UNSUPERVISED FEMALE HEALTH DECISIONS" bruh, it's like, tell me you hate women without saying you hate women 🤦♂️
-
I mean, it's obviously fake, but on the other hand, it's disturbingly close to something they'd actually show to rile up their not-so-smart-or-empathetic viewers.
-
if "tampon tim" is an actual thing in their toolbox, then literally anything could be
-
-
Canada is right here, guys, and we're only sorry we don't have free college. Free dental is coming, though.
-
ROFL They are making him seem like the best candidate to me! The 'unemployed minors' is wild, it's as if the MAGA don't believe students are real. (to prevent future comments saying it's fake, I want to say that I don't actually believe this is real. I should've been clearer, to be honest).
-
Or i dunno lol like as in children? Also they slayed me at couches
-
Haha, yeah, the MAGA can only see them as future workers instead of mere children! Also, the couches bit really extorted a chuckle out of me. The meme about JD Vance (not based on fact) is certainly penetrating the political discussion. As JD Vance is weird enough to make it mildly believable.
-
-
Yeah, I mean it's clearly satire, but really only because of that one line. I don't think they were actually trying to fool anyone, but if they were, all they'd need to do is delete "unemployed" and I wouldn't have thought this was fake at all.
And "couches" obviously.
-
It is satire, yes, it was very Onion-y. It made all the 'quiet parts' which Republicans used to keep silence before...Loud and Clear. If they had simply kept "unemployed" but deleted the reference to couches, I would've actually believed this to be true. As Fox News is highly falsified news, I wouldn't have been able to tell the difference from their normal denial of reality.

Fake ...

I rarely see anything Fox says for about two decades, and I've felt much better ever since.
-
Nice the market is all green which is also satirical. It was not.
-
This cannot be real.. Right?
-
-
This is clearly fake based on some of the comedically worded bullets - is it that hard to tell?
It's funny, though, and a well-done fake.
-
Get rid of the words "unemployed" and "couches" and it would have been pretty hard to spot as satire honestly.
-
-
No fucking way the couches part is real
-
I see what you did there.
-
-
You are really skirting the edge of Poe's Law here. Not sure you could cut it any finer.
-
Free advertising is free advertising.
-
This isn't weird at all, lol 😝🔨
-
I feel like they intentionally fucked with the kerning on the font in his name to give the illusion that it looks Cyrillic.
-
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, is this a tankee???
-
Not to totally shit on everyone's parade (because this is going to get hate from everyone probably), but not that far off. The term tankie was used as an insult to leftists who defended communist dictatorship's use of tanks to attack (and kill) protesters. Walz did deploy the national guard to attack protesters during the George Floyd protests. Not a tank though as far as I'm aware.
-

This is misinformation. The USSR was not communist and its supporters are not leftists.
Thanks for letting us know about Walz' deployment of the national guard against BLM protesters tho, I checked it out thanks to you and it's true. I also read in the same article that Walz put George's killer in prison, so he seems like a mixed bag. Definitely better than what passes for the bare minimum in American politics.
-
Walz confirmed tanki. Kamala has the leftist vote on lock.

I think the issue is with debt. Both parties are positioning themselves as populists and are going to increase spending but the money has to come from somewhere.
In the fiscal year of 2022, Minnesota's state debt stood at about 17.75 billion U.S. dollars. Comparatively, the state's debt was approximately 5.6 billion U.S. dollars in 2000.Jul 5, 2024
-
These stats mean absolutely nothing and give zero context with how you've presented them, and you couldn't be bothered to clean up your comment when you copy/pasted or give a link so others could follow.
How does this compare to the average increase of debt in other states? What kind of increase in budget did his programs add compared to other programs states initiate? What kind of impact or votes did Walz conduct that actually affected the budget and in what years?
Debt increases, we get no new programs. Minnesota's debt increases, they get free school lunches, healthcare products, etc etc. Not really a convincing argument presented here or anything to even have a conversation about.
-
-
Your voting is showing. Debt is the short-attention fixation of the greedy.
-
What is my vote? How is it showing? Debt is a major concern in the USA with the highest debt to gdp ratio that has ever existed. We exist in a high inflation environment so running large social programs will exacerbate inflation and harm everyone.
