6 mil and 2.6 mil? damn these congresspeople come cheap.

Around COVID I had checked on donations to one of my local state reps and found out they had bought off by a corporation for a $3400 check. We were making jokes at my work about getting together and pitching in a few bucks each to pass laws

[–] Formerlyfarman@hexbear.net 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Holy shit! Mexican politicians are way more expensive. My small town mayors of a poor town in the middle of nowhere sell for several million worth of construction contracts.

[–] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago

I remember hearing a british MP had been bought off with something like 1200 pounds worth of dinners and stuff. Global North politicians cannot fathom the numbers we have in the global south.

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

Over a Congressional span of 9 years amd 3 years, respectively.

[–] jack@hexbear.net 17 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

damn, any idea why they're pushing this bill or who it might be on behalf of?

[–] BimboChristmas@hexbear.net 18 points 2 weeks ago

America, clearly. Otherwise is to say the tail is wagging the dog.

[–] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 35 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

How many days until Hasan's dog collar is mentioned by a government official

[–] dead@hexbear.net 32 points 2 weeks ago

JD Vance said that Hasan Piker shocked his dog, 6 months ago.

These people have fucking nothing. There is no help for anyone. Gas can be $8 a gallon. They have no plan, nothing to offer. They can't even pretend.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

the answer is higher plebs argue about hasan, chevron prints money, lower plebs think they are all coastal elites shrug-outta-hecks the goal of neoliberal politics to distract and delay, not change anything in the society as it works perfectly well

[–] MayoPete@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

There was a blurb on one of the home pages I see at work along the lines of "People online are furious about Pete Hegseth's wife's dress... something something fast fashion"

And I'm thinking WHO TF are the people that read this crap, let alone participate in it? These media outlets figured out how to distract a huge chunk of humans endlessly and it's bleak thinking about how much of our species is wasting away on slop.

How much of traffic for those pieces can be safely assumed is bots now?

[–] acidic7_7@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago

If somebody actually clicks on that they might as well be a bot anyways

We need an Anti-Francis Fukuyama to write The End of Capitalism and the Last Grift

didn't joe rogan host several holocaust deniers (real ones as well as oblique ones)? speaking up is not easy (says the ghoul in congress constantly opining, lmayo)

[–] radio_free_asgarthr@hexbear.net 23 points 2 weeks ago

Definitely, probably many. But a specific one I remember that is was like almost exactly a year ago he had an outright Nazi apologist on. Didn't deny the Holocaust but tried to excuse it. If I remember correctly, he claimed that "Judeo-Bolshevism" was a Soviet psyop that successfully tricked the Nazis into thinking that the Jews were actually acting as a fifth column for the Soviets, so the camps were originally intended as self-defense. But that guy also is okay with Israel, or at least both sides the conflict, so he can't be denounced as an anti-Semite.

[–] MemesAreTheory@hexbear.net 20 points 2 weeks ago

So did Charlie Kirk. All their favorites do.

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 28 points 2 weeks ago

Remember how they took action when white nationalists were chanting about how "Jews will not replace us?"

Me either.

BIPARTISAN RESOLUTION: CARPOP

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 21 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Are Congressmen seriously proposing anti-Hasan resolutions? Wtf?

They are trying so hard to cut off their left flank before the midterms, but shit like this will only make people dislike Democrats more.

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 28 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Voters: “Healthcare plz….”

Democrats: “No! We need to expend all our capital on condemning a Twitch streamer most people haven’t heard of! That’ll win us the White House in 2028 for sure.”

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 22 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Full poll results (abandon all hope, ye who enter here)

[–] Des@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 16 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I’m not sure how 79% of respondents haven’t heard of Hasan yet 51% of Democrats think the party shouldn’t follow his proposed politics. Methinks that’s 51% of polled Democrats who know who he is.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 16 points 2 weeks ago (10 children)

"I don't know who he is but I trust senator holden-bloodfeast" is a voting demographic

Or: 28% of polled democrats answered 'no' to the question 'should the party follow the politics of <arabic name I've never heard before>'.

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Didn't Cory Booker say something about how he disagrees with him but had never watched him? Sure some advisors said he was pro-Palestine and that's all he had to know.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

What Booker claimed (which may or may not be a lie) is that he doesn't know anything about Piker except for a couple of clips shown to him by some advisor, probably the 9/11 one and "it doesn't make a difference ifremoveds happened on 10/7" [to the question of genocide being "justified," but that context is left out], and was prompted to weigh in on if it would be reasonable to go on Piker's broadcast, and he was content to say "no" based on that information.

I'm not defending him, he's obviously a performative zionist scoundrel, I just assume you'd like to know what the precise story is and I'm pretty sure that's what it is.

I'm gonna be honest I stole it from someone on here who posted it like a year ago and I can't find it I've tried dozens of times now

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 18 points 2 weeks ago

Whereas, in August 2019, during a stream on Twitch, Hasan Piker stated that "America deserved 9/11";

waow-based

[–] Azarova@hexbear.net 15 points 2 weeks ago

8/21 being referenced in an official government document is so fucking funny

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago

It does matter that it SA happened on October 7th, it happened in Isra*eli prisons just like every other day.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 18 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

prominent online personalities

It's Flakes Bongler's time to shine

[–] miz@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I thought of you immediately!

Hasan ending up in prison next to Maduro and Luigi would be an interesting turn of events

[–] dead@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I went to twitter to see Candace Owen's reaction since she is also named in the resolution. She's only posted about Erika Kirk for the past 8 hours and has not reacted to this bill. She's going to be live on youtube, 10 minutes from now.

edit // She didn't mention the congress resolution during her stream at all today. Also no mention on twitter.

[–] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

If hasan and the other online radlibs actually threatened the system the government wouldn’t draw this much attention to them lol. They just plugged the panthers and had done with it.

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago

I think it has less to do with that, and more to do with the fact that the average politician isn't a blood soaked lunatic. They are softboi media psychos who want to become bloodsoaked lunatics, but even the blood soaked lunatics knew better than to actually attack Iran.

They can't keep from paying attention to Hasan because he is a reflection of them. Hasan is kinda dangerous, not in that he himself is dangerous, but more of the fact that he is popular is indicative of an extremely popular deviation, likely comparable, but still a reflection of them, and what they think is really real, the internet.

[–] jack@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

You think there was no massive extended fear mongering propaganda campaign about the BPP?
