The US Presidential Election Thread

[Val Keating]

We need the devils chessboard thread opened up again. Israel is bombing beirut right now

I hate america, I hate everything about em. I hate their sports, I hate their arrogance, I hate them to the core of my soul. I couldn’t give a flying rats toss bag about their demise. I couldn’t give a second rats toss bag if they are sworn into civil war.. I simply dont..

The only thing I care about, when it comes to US and Australia is that they control around 25% of the global share market and their decisions could (potentially) extend this shit hole inflation shit we are experiencing. Thats it, thats what I care about.

I dont care about toothpaste, I dont care about how the USA feel. I care about my fellow Aussies and how we would react to this piece of shit leading our economic disposition.

I care more for countries that are fighting off Russia than I care for Americans. I hate those campaigners. I hate America. They make me ****ing sick, septic tanks

Do you actually know any americans?

the vast majority are awesome people. I love the positivity.

How are these vile scum allowed to compete in international sport? We banned Russian tennis players from competing in the aus open for gods sake

100% agree

I don’t agree, sport should transcend politics, we never should have banned Russian athletes, like we shouldn’t ban Israeli.

 

[bengrina]

I don’t agree, sport should transcend politics, we never should have banned Russian athletes, like we shouldn’t ban Israeli.

I get what you’re saying but there is a difference between banning individual tennis players Because they were born in a country than banning a representative national team

 

[Grogg]

I don’t agree, sport should transcend politics, we never should have banned Russian athletes, like we shouldn’t ban Israeli.

Even when you're actively eradicating a people, their culture and their right to even exist?

Yeah, nah Israel as a nation should be persona non grata on the world stage.

It’s a complex topic isn’t it, I was one of the first to say we should expel the Israeli foreign minster because I knew what was happening on the ground.
This is different thou as sport and politics shouldn’t mix, regardless of what the big brains think, sure if individuals make threatening gestures/language ban them but moving onto collective punishment is wrong.

Crowds and where they play is a different story..

Hey chad, sometime you gotta gives us your post election review.

I'm just blown away that trump almost had zero supportive press (except for social media) but still had such a comprehensive win. I genuinely wonder if traditional media is completely done for now.

Nah mate, never. In fact, i’d rather have a beer with a canadian.. its arguable the US are a stain on global society and global cohesion.

I’ve lived in the states and been back a few times. The people are actually really friendly and hospitable. Their government is the issue

 

[DuckYeah]

You think?

Black men, women, and students across 20+ states in the US have received shockingly racist anonymous messages just days after Election day, calling them to report to the "nearest plantation", an offensive reference to past enslavement of Black people in the United States.

"Now that Trump is president, you have been selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation (...). Our guys will come get you in a van," one of the messages said.

The FBI and the US Justice Department have opened an investigation, working closely with phone service providers AT&T and Verizon as well as application providers such as TextNow to track the perpetrators behind this attack.

Trump’s spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt provided a statement immediately in response to the attacks on Friday.

"President Trump's campaign has absolutely nothing to do with these text messages.”

What kinda of individual gets up and thinks…yep lets do this….
That kinda message being sent to a target audience over several states takes some kinda planning..
Unfortunately l don’t think this won’t be the last of these types of hateful targeting …..
And instead of condemning it…just a “not us “ comment from incoming administration….
The whole place is a mess….

Traditional media has been done for a while. I think Trump on JRE got over 100M views in just a couple of days. All the traditional media outlets would kill for those numbers. No production team, no promotion, just one bloke and his guest, a couple of cameras and someone with a computer to Google something if they want an answer to some questions.

I reckon those are bots from one of America’s advisories.

Which isnt utilised enough in that cesspit show. Not enough fact checking

I think you greatly under estimate how many people it takes to make Rogan.

I’m just going off what he says. He always hangs shit on his friends that have podcasts with giant production teams.

What are you talking about? They do it constantly.

 

[DuckYeah]

Theres been heaps of contentious moments where Rogan and his bitch boy jaimy (not even sure it still is jaimy) dont bring up facts. 2 stand out off the top of my head. The claim of myocarditis in kids higher with vaccine and kitty litter in schools. Can you believe that Rogan spruiked US schools of pandering to kids who want to be “furries” or whatever it is and schools placed kitty litter for them as toilets.

But nah his wifes friend, school teacher told him. Zero fact check, just spewed that out on his MILLIONS of listeners. Where a little fact check would have corrected that and would have identified the kitter litter is for school shooting lockdowns and if kids need to use the bathroom. Which is terrifying and brings up bigger talking points.

Pathetic. He doesn’t use it enough. And when he goes back and corrects it, the damage is done. He’s dangerous for society.

Lol I remember that kitty litter episode, he was saying that his friends wife told him about it and then he literally asked Jamie to google it and found out it was bullshit. Someone asked and the school said no or something like that.
