they are also now attempting to attribute hasan's (out of context) quote "america deserved 9/11" to this guy despite him not having said anything of the sort

it's racism, that's all it is.

Bit idea:

A scaremongering ad with a dramatic voiceover meant to convince people to stop supporting Mamdani, but because he refuses to say "America deserved 9/11"

"Marxist" Zohran Mamdani calls himself a socialist, but he refuses to say "kill all cops" or "America deserved 9/11, infinite genocide on the first world." Is this truly the mayor New York deserves?

Mr. Mayor do you think true love is only possible in the next world - for new people? Mr. Mayor do you think it is too late for us? Mr: Mayor will you wreak havoc on the middle class?

Remember Barrack HUSSEIN Obama? It's always been about racism and religious fear mongering.

It's also a very weak line of attack that reeks of desperation. If we are expected to be suspicious of somebody because of something another person said it only highlights how little you have on them.

This shit doesn't work.

It used to, but we’re finally making enough noise about it that people are starting to look deeper. Also, inflation has been at like 10% for this whole decade so far and there is a police agency that won’t show their faces or reveal their identities snatching people off the streets, and the normies are starting to realize that “politics” isn’t “petty name calling” but yeah maybe Trump is actually a shit leader who lies about everything and is destroying the country.

That's no excuse, he still shouldn't have done it

The Republican Party forgot about 9/11.

[–] SirSmoothAES@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wasn't 9/11 an inside job? Or are Republicans only conspiracy brained when it suits them? Never mind, of course they are.

Smart to tuck the Zei Squirrel post away, but Evan is also a certified freak. Your feed looks like brain pudding
