It's good that Obama isn't on the Epstein list.

But a woman's value isn't based on how many people have seen her body.

We shouldn't encourage them to think they're right.

a lil early for anyone to be gloating about not being on a list that doesn't not exist any more on Tuesdays.

Once again I ask you not to glorify war criminals.

I say this as someone who doesn't have Obamna Derangement Syndrome: this post is painful boomer slop.

[–] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

That's basically everything from Occupy Democrats. They're Facebook-tier meme cringe with a side of "how do you do, fellow kids?"

The sad thing is crap like this probably works better than actual logic.

We have no idea if Obama is on the list because we don't have the list. We pretty much know that Trump is on it, and someone like Bill Clinton is also very likely on there, but Bush Jr, Obama, and Biden could all also be on that list but we just don't know. It's a list of very powerful people, and anybody who has held the office of the presidency is a suspect as far as I'm concerned.

Also not a felon. Or rapist. No impeachments either.

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago

Should be a felon considering his war crimes.

Unlike Dump I actually would want to see Bama's wife naked.

Not really a strong conviction here, but she seems like she's not all plastic yet. A mind up there, too... Always good in my list

Also, she at least looks like someone who's actually had an orgasm in the past 40 years or so.

You like photography, eh? Say no more!

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (7 children)

sure but that’s not the metric by which we measure goodness, considering. As in, memery aside, he should not be speaking as if he’s not a monster as well. 😂

Trump would lose his fucking mind. Remember, Obama baggin' on him is why he ran in the first place.

If you haven't seen it, history in the making, and funny as hell to boot. Except for the consequences.

Stop idealizing Obama. We don't have the full list and he's been no different in terms of foreign policy and bombing brown people.

[–] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

I hate obama but there is now way that obama and trump have similar foreign policies other than funding israel

[–] Gaylactus@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I don't think this is idealizing him, and I certainly don't, but compared to Trump he's still miles ahead, when you make a "generic" assessment. And the post is still making (most likely) an accurate statement. Obama doesn't strike me as being a womanizer or a pedophile.

[–] tiny_iota@endlesstalk.org 4 points 2 days ago

wheres the tea party equivalent reaction from (racists) american politics from trumps election?

oh wait that was the reaction. America couldn't handle a brown person who was even half white running the country and lost their fucking minds. Now we get another loser celebrity con-man. Wonderful. That January insurrection was just a random flux though, right?!

[–] crankyrebel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Funded by the globalist bankers, bailed them out when the housing market fiasco happened, and gave a middle finger to the middle class/homeowners. Obama's bailouts also allowed the banks to take that money and give their CEO's, who caused the situation, huge bonuses.

He then went on and drone-bombed a fuck-ton of individuals including a lot of innocent children and women, and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, laughing at the irony. Obama was no friend to the working class, a globalist-first president. Worse than Trump? Just two snakes with the same body.

Not that you're not right about the rest, but maybe don't use "the globalists" with so little specificity?

When you're using THAT term vaguely, people can't tell if you're (rightly) blaming Obama's kowtowing to multinational corporations and their toadies for a lot of the awful things he did and caused or employing Alex Jones' favorite antisemitic dog whistle to blame a shadowy Jewish cabal..

Kinda an important distinction.

[–] crankyrebel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Globalist = a crony-capitalistic group of oligarchs who are trying to control commerce, the people, and the world. This is not aimed at Jewish people, but it does include Zionist. Hope that is clear.

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Capitalist.

You can just say Capitalists. The "crony" part is redundant.

[–] crankyrebel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago

LOL, you are correct.

Fair enough. I'm not sure I agree with how orchestrated you think their actions are but yep, billionaires and other crony capitalists do in fact control the world and many of them are indeed Zionists without all of Jewdom having anything to do with it.

Thanks for clarifying 🙂

Killing 12,000 civilians is arguably worse than being on Epstein's list, Barry.

Smashing the Like button on Occupy Democrats facebook posts is what boomers think meaningful political activism is

[–] peregrin5@piefed.social 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

not voting and spending their lives rage memeing online is what tankies think is meaningful political activism

[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Thing about the second point, I don't believe he truly cares about her at a deep level (not capable) so for him it's more of a "look at how hot my wife is" type of gloat rather than any embarrassment.
