Fully devolving into “random idiot’s opinion is better than expert analysis.”

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago (1 children)

We're nearly at peak Idiocracy levels.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

No we aren't. We're already past them.

In the UK some politician said "we are tired of listening to experts" or something.

Might hurt their feelings when experts contradict them.

Kid Rock looks like a man who's only allowed to see his kids every other weekend, but doesn't.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 46 points 1 week ago (3 children)

This is insulting. Also, being forced to listen to Kid Rock speak on any topic is cruel and unusual punishment.

Remember that the whole room is operating under orders.

They should be lectured to by people with experience. Bring in Adult Rock.

This is more an indictment of your high ranking officers than of the Trump administration.

Look at those cowardly, servile lapdogs sitting there allowing themselves to be addressed in the Pentagon by Kid Rock.

[–] tacoplease@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

I'd rather announce to the room that my explosive diarrhea is preventing me from attending and embarrassing myself than actually attending.

Idiocracy is real.

[–] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

This world is post-satire. The Onion can close shop.

I wanna see what they do with Infowars now that they're buying it

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 18 points 6 days ago (4 children)

I'm curious what advice Mr. Kid Rock had for the admirals and generals.

[–] TwodogsFighting 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Bawa dibba dibba dibba doo waa. Or something.

From https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/kid-rock-address-pentagon/

The image is real and U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared it on social media. However, the caption claiming Kid Rock addressed the Strait of Hormuz was fabricated, originating in an X post from a user who has shared fictional and humorous content.

From the crowd that says they don't like when actors get political...

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's just another game to these Hungry Hungry Hypocrites.

[–] JamesBoeing737MAX@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 days ago

Jokes on you, I'm stealing that joke.

[–] LittleBorat3@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

I don't get this, any other meth head who is not kid rock would do a better job.

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 16 points 6 days ago

How things have changed. My childhood best friend was my pastor's son and I remember him sneakily buying Kid Rock's "Devil Without A Cause" while on a church trip and hiding it because such music was considered demonic. Now Kid Rock is held up by the same people who populated my childhood church as an exemplar of conservative values or whatever? FOH

Surely this will make the military be willing to do a coup on trumps account

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I was kind of going they would do a coup against him.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

i dunno. i'm thinking of all my friends who were the most into numetal, and they were the ones who enlisted.

Is this real?

Fucin' hell if it is.

[–] lefaucet@slrpnk.net 4 points 6 days ago

Yup. It's on usa today and msn at least. Apparently they decided to spend a few tens of millions to fly kid rock and Hegseth around in apache helicopters.

F'n disgrace

I came here hoping for someone calling this out as AI slop....unfortunately, this is apparently real.

[–] yenahmik@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The more time goes on, the more I'm convinced the Mayans were right and the world really did end in 2012. Everything since has been a slow decent into absurdism.

Another pedo and pedo protector in the Pentagon. WTF!?!?

Isn't this against the Geneva convention?
