Sometimes we find inspiration where we least expect it.

No coincidence background "patriot" wears the Deutsche Reichsflagge (Black / White / Red) as a sweater?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

So not Egypt, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, or even Trinidad and Tobago, it must be a flag from nearly a century ago, if you squint real hard, and ignore the extra stripes and the fact they're vertical instead of horizontal. It certainly can't be because of the esthetics of broad vertical stripes and that black and white go with anything, meaning you only have to coordinate with one color. Nah, that's unreasonable.

Sorry I said anything to ridicule these poor MAGA people

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Go with the legitimate criticisms. There are many, even in the clothing choices.

[–] suction 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I did. Your speculation is as good as mine.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm not speculating at all. I'm pointing our how much of a reach your speculation is. We can't even be sure they're there for Trump's talk. That looks like a convention center, they could be there for something else. I tried to find the location this was taken, but I'm not finding it.

[–] suction 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well I happened to be there as a journalist from the EU and actually tried to interview this person because she caught my attention when she gave out free replicas of SS-Ehrenring rings to the other attendants. Just instead of the skull her rings had a small Trump head. She declined my interview request because, as she put it, I looked like I was “unwertes Leben”.

So you should be really careful with your speculation and probably stick to your manga and anime, dum-dum!

speculation

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

[–] suction 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But you’re not sure? Can you ask Naruto to confirm?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

First, your juvenile ad hominems and wild speculation, not to mention your poor use of language incline me to believe you aren't a journalist, or at least a journalist that I'm not inclined to think worth reading. But feel free to prove me wrong. Where would I find this article in which you drop pearls of wisdom for the unwashed masses such as myself? Did you get pictures of these earrings that she was handing out? Did she refuse to even let you get pictures, and convince the other recipients of her goods to also shield them from your unworthy focus? And please, don't tell me you don't want to advertise your professional work, or that of your peers. You already mentioned it.

Also, I haven't watched Naruto, but you apparently haven't seen The Princess Bride.

  1. You need to be more concise. First rule of journalist school.
  2. Have you ever tried the hentai? That stuff really gets your juices flowin‘!
[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't pretend to be a journalist. I hear presenting facts is also important, and you have yet to do that despite your claims.

[–] suction 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But I can’t take you seriously so I can’t be bothered?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

But I'm not just talking to you, I'm also talking to the other people viewing this thread. Just like how it's laughable to say you can't be bothered to prove your dubious claims after engaging in communication about a subject half a dozen times over 2 days. The liklier conclusion is that they are as reasonable as your first - possibly true, but no substantive proof given.
