How long until the headline
Musk writes OP-ED supporting BRUV, only they can save the UK!
how do you know a scammer? from his desire to run a large bitcoin operation. examples: Trump, Elon, Tate, Nigel. Surprised? I am not.
Fun story: I used to be a Tristan Tate fan. Now, now, put down the pitchfork, I can explain. Back before these two blew up, I kinda knew who Andrew Tate was and the kind of content he made but had never actually watched anything he put out. One day, scrolling YouTube shorts, I was served a video of a guy saying shit so ridiculous that I couldn't help but laugh. I then noticed his name was "Tristan Tate" and thought to myself "Oh, he must be a satire of that Andrew Tate guy I've heard about". For the next several days, I watched almost every Tristan Tate short I was served — I couldn't believe how fucking good he was at satire. Then I got served one where he talked about his brother and everything clicked in my head. I guess I'm grateful I never shared anything.
Reminds me of how the YouTuber Angela Collier detailed once reading Atlas Shrugged and really enjoying it. Wanting to read it blind, she did as little research as possible on the book beforehand, only knowing that the author was made fun of for relying on food stamps leading up to her death. As she worked through the book, it was shaping up to be a masterpiece satire on much the same level of A Modest Proposal.
It was only upon finishing the book and looking through the other reviews on Goodreads that she realized it was not satirical.
lol Ayn Rand. Some ideas are so unhinged they can't be taken seriously. In the Tristan Tate video I was talking about, he was saying something like "Well, if our home gets invaded, I'd have to protect it and might die doing so. That means my wife has to do everything I say to pay me back for this hypothetical situation where I gave my life for her". How was I supposed to know he was serous?
I knew more about Rand than that when I read both Atlas and Fountainhead but it was still the same experience. I found them so ridiculous as to be laugh-out-loud funny.
Like, on a dime someone will respond to an innocuous question with a four page uninterrupted monologue. Or there'll be an entire chapter from the point of view of some beans. Or a man puts out a furnace fire solo with his bare hands. Just incredible stuff.
This will go as well as kanye going for president. and conor mcgregor going for president in ireland
Somewhere, Will Ospreay is plotting his vengeance.
It's cool that we get to see Idiocracy worldwide, not just the US version. Every dystopia gets its own cultural flare. So cute.
In Idiocracy the people were just stupid, there wasn’t any real malice to them - unlike these absolute clowns.
Can this guy just go the fuck away? He's secreted enough poison into the world at this point.
Balding Rapists Using Violence
I don't give a shit what it was supposed to stand for, it now stands for that.
Countdown till Musk endorsement....
You mean he is going to travel back to the country he fled because of rape charges?
Good luck with that mate.
I kind of think they'd arrest him if he went back to the UK. I guess that's less of a deal breaker than it used to be though.
Damn, I had almost successfully forgotten about this dickhead.
Time to buy another bottle of champagne to add to my collection of bottles to be toasted with when terrible people die.
So far I have two bottles, one for Trump and one for Putin, I need to get bottles for Musk and Tate.
Ooo... I might adopt this practice.
It’s like the old soviet joke about the newspaper
Care to elaborate for the uneducated?
Guy buys newspaper every day, but only checks the frontpage before throwing it away.
When asked one day why he does this, he explains that he's checking the obituary for someone.
-"But the obituary is not on the first page?"
-"For this guy it will be, believe me"
=> When stalin dies it will be on the front page.
When Stalin dies it will be ~~on~~ the front page
Sex trafficker Andrew Tate
This has a nice ring to it
I wouldn’t say nice per se, but apt and factual and scientifically proven, yes. Although it is nice that he is referred to as the trash that he is.
And somehow he'll keep making money.
Do you remember how, in kids cartoons, you'd sometimes have the villains team up to do their evil deeds? It always seemed to unrealistic that they'd all be on the same team. And yet...
Sex trafficker AND rapist
Ah, sex trafficker and rapist Andrew Tate
Sure. Why the fuck not.
That will give our pinheaded non-voting trolls a whole other country to be priggish twats in for a few months anyway.
I mean - how far away from Matt Gaetz is the guy? Criminally? Not that far. And he's going to be Governor next, so clearly it's time for the All-Rapist party to be ascendant.
Are you joking bruv?
