DeSantis was unfazed by someone knowing his job description.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 3 months ago

he is a humanoid alien, that participated in torturing prisoners at gitmo.

Florida Man can sometimes be based

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Only accidentally.

[–] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 55 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Don’t forget he also helped torture guys in Guantanamo

Congratulations, mate. Took you only ten years to figure that one out. You must be one of the clever ones.

(Directed at the guy in the article, of course)

It's so frustrating to see... Y'all could have come to this conclusion before this piece of shit destroyed our country.

But that's probably the point isn't it? They got what they wanted, so now many of them are ok with throwing him under the bus.

A rare spark of intelligence from the Florida man

Had to dig like 3 articles deep but here's the vid

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

If someone were to identify that person ... I'd contribute to a fundraising site for them

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 months ago

Unfortunately, they just killed themselves by shooting themselves in the back of the head twice.

[–] notsure@fedia.io 13 points 3 months ago

...the minimum, but still welcome...

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Finally, the impulsiveness of florida man is being used for good.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 9 points 3 months ago

On the one hand it's nice that they no longer worship Trump.

I do fear it still leads to President Joe Rogan though.

isnt your state(desantis) spiraling downwards due to the hurricane, insurance damages, and immigrants fleeing the state, so your import and tourist industry is suffering.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hey, whatever works. It got a lot of rightwing people out of Midwestern states when they went packing for Florida during COVID. I'm sorry for Dems there, I hope they can get out but I won't cry when that state is underwater.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

its no wonder there is no news coming out the state of how bad its doing, usually theres constant news about it because of its "sunshine laws" but the MSM have kept a pretty tight lip over the months.

[–] y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

Lmao sunshine laws are a joke

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Minus alligator Auschwitz

[–] HenryDorsett@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I think pedophile should be removed from the lexicon.

Just call them convicted child rapists, or potential child rapists.

Of course, the rapist in chief probably wouldn't like that change in the popular vernacular.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

The guy's not wrong.

[–] Eryn6844@beehaw.org 2 points 3 months ago

more like kneeling and looking up..

[–] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It doesn't even matter

Those that need to see things like this either never will or will simply dismiss it as something that doesn't work with the narrative they are being fed

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 21 points 3 months ago (2 children)

You are playing a part of a defeatist narrative.

[–] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Defeatist or not, it's accurate

How can we hope to penetrate their bubble when they are being actively astroturfed 24/7 from every direction?

It's a genuine question

[–] Puddinghelmet@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

national strikes?

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 3 points 3 months ago

"You can't walk through this wall, find another way around" isn't defeatism.

[–] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Wish he brought a loaded pewpew with him.

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 3 months ago (2 children)

it's okay to just say gun. You're not being censored here like on commercial social media.

[–] jimjam5@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

I’m just spitballing here but, for Florida Man I’d guess if he were packin’, it’d be a sawed-off 12 gauge Remington 870 chambered with 00 buckshot. With that he would fuck shit up.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 2 points 3 months ago

As a midwesterner w/ a bit of gun knowledge: I'd guess a Mossberg 500, or a Maverick 88.

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

We know nothing about guns, so, uh, sure.

[–] jimjam5@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I’m not a gun nut either (just happen to practice with my carry piece). I just imagine a ridiculous gun for a ridiculous persona like Florida Man hahaha

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

"this that gun that dirty Harry had! Yeeeee hawww!"

[–] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What if I just like calling them pewpews, though?
