so for anyone as confused as i was - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Kimble

Jack Kimble, also known by his Twitter username @RepJackKimble, is a fictional and satirical character active on the social media websites Twitter and Bluesky. Presented as a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives, his character has also been used as a novelty candidate. Several of the account's posts have gone viral and mistakenly thought to have been posted by a legitimate American politician.

There wasn't anything to be confused about - it's in character to the point of being more reenactment than parody.

Yeah this is just normal expected shit. It’s why The Onion can’t be funny anymore.

Specifically, I think it's a reference to Dean Browning.

well for me there was. i am not an american and i don't know every us politician by name. so if this was real politician, my questions would be 1) is this real? 2) ok, being so dumb that you can't switch accounts is one thing, but did he really believe that some black democratic lesbian, or any other democrat, would saw this and switch to the other side because of his argument? that would made him truly retarded.

Real right wing politicians do this often enough for the reference to land, presumably trying to fend off accusations of racism?

[–] Chronographs@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I mean it was clearly sarcastic even if it was a real account

[–] 14th_cylon@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago

In these days not many things are clear...

This just muddles things with regards to Dean Browning REALLY pretending to be a gay black man to lie about Obama and Trump.

As soon as ai "people" were created. They immediately made minority ones that supported conservatives.

Thinking other black people would be stupid enough to follow a black woman regardless of what she said.

Should have looked at Candice owens. She's pretty much disowned by her own people.

Candice Owens should be disowned by everyone, seeing she is a huge piece of shit and all.

Part of the issue though is people really are that stupid. It's not a race thing, but a human thing.

Not even as bright as a Chinese or Russian bot.
