Just make them all public all the time! That'll show those fucking libs.

As a liberal I would be so fucking owned by this

Did someone say pwn? I’m hungry

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Someone say prawns??

I don't care if they are Republican or Democrat. If they are criminals, they should go to jail. Release the Epstein files and send Bill and Trump to jail.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 78 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Thats the thing I don't think they get.

"Ok, well our guy will go to jail, but so will yours!!!"

"That's fine."

"But then we BOTH lose!"

"This isn't a MAD doctrine situation. This is supposed to be more like a scorched earth situation. No corruption left behind."

And I don't think they grasp that.

[–] huginn@feddit.it 53 points 1 month ago (2 children)

What they don't grasp is that we'd send our guy to jail: because they won't.

That's the difference.

When a corrupt democrat is exposed they're expelled (bye bye Cuomo)

When a corrupt republican is exposed they're re-elected.

Even if it’s egregiously overstated (Al Franken).

[–] svtdragon@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

This still makes me mad.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago

Tbf though you cant become republican if you havent exposed yourself a couple times

[–] Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 month ago

It would do more to drain the swamp than anything Trump had ever imagined.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

She is only saying it because she is positive the files will never get released.

[–] 5oap10116@lemmy.world 30 points 1 month ago

Thus is the difference between MAGA/republicans and everyone else

Bill was lended Epstein's plane one time to a regular AIDs relief tour in Africa.

Trump has been on his plane many times, but more importantly called him a friend and went to his island. Many times.

You sound as crazy as the people calling Stephen Hawking a kid diddler when you say stuff like that. You, like the majority of Americans, seem to have no fucking clue what actually happens around them.

But yes, I agree, release the reports and send people who broke the law to prison.

[–] Frog@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Saying Bill Clinton, the guy who couldn't keep it in his pants in the Oval Office, is a kid diddler sounds as crazy as calling Stephen Hawking one?

Does your logic really sound logical to you?

Holy shit I agree with MTG

Harambe truly was this universe's anchor being, and the decay is increasing exponentially

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wow......having seen almost NONE of the other Marvel movies, I walked out of Deadpool vs Wolferine just kind of confused. Not by the plot, that was simple as shit. It was insultingly simple.

The part that confused me was "WHO IS DEMANDING THIS MOVIE???". I don't watch a lot of movies, but the ones I do watch I like to make "worth it". And everybody was going on and on and on about how great this movie was going to be once it came out. And then......

Ok, imagine going to this movie, without ANY concept about who these cameos are, who a LOT of the characters are supposed to even be, and without having seen a single previous deadpool or x-men movie before.

Yeah, movie kind of sucks now, doesn't it?

But......silver lining.....at least I was able to get the joke of a Lemmy post months after the fact.

.......yeah, I still want my $12 back.

[–] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nah it was great, but it was a love letter to people who had watched every previous Deadpool and all the old Marvel movies. It wasn't meant to be an entry into the universe. I can understand why you didn't like it having not seen the previous, but it just wasn't made for you.

[–] chuymatt@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

Also, it was a joyous watch for those who read the ‘90s-00s comics. My wife almost enjoyed my reactions as much as the movie.

Does it have much replay value, maybe not.

[–] Bluefalcon@discuss.tchncs.de 52 points 1 month ago

Let me stretch first. Don't want to pull anything.

I'm kinda with you... Like, let them fight?

I think she meant this as a threat to get the party in line, but i can't see any way this doesn't blow up in their faces. If the leopards are eating leopard faces, will they notice mine..?

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

It's so weird to see an MTG post and... yeah... I'm over here like: LFG.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Oh no. Please, stop.
