Comments about the president of the US receiving a bribe: 3

My brother in Christ, there are a thousand other threads about Trump being corrupt full of people lamenting Trump being corrupt.

But this post is like hearing Al Capone chastise Pablo Escobar over organized crime.

I feel like thats an insult to Al Capone, he ran a soup kitchen during the Depression.

[-] Bartsbigbugbag@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 months ago

He also handed out turkeys on Thanksgiving and is the reason we have expiration dates on milk bottles.

[-] GenosseFlosse@feddit.org 6 points 2 months ago

Aside from anecdotal evidence, Snopes was unable to find any proof to corroborate this claim. We know that most major food labeling requirements occurred in the decades following Capone's 1947 death. However, aside from infant formula, there is no requirement to label expiration dates in the U.S. All such labeling is done so voluntarily by food manufacturers.

I didn't know that about old scarface, I will be adding that to the list of fun facts right next to the fact that at least one Roman Emperor thought that he was becoming a god right between violently shitting himself to death.

When you share a little factoids like this, you don’t think check to see if they’re true, this sounds like it was designed to be shared and to be viral, but nothing of whether it was fucking true or not, Jesus, fucking Christ dude do better on the Internet

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

It's almost as though no one likes her.

[-] RedPostItNote@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

It’s almost as though human beings have lost the ability to prioritize what actually matters

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago

It's almost as though no one wants to hear from her anymore except a bunch of people who are so unforgivably out of touch that they think she's a good messenger.

It might be a good point, but she doesn't deserve positive attention ever.

[-] Kentifer@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

This is a post about her and her tweet. If you want to discuss the Air Force Bribe, I'm sure there are thousands of simultaneous discussions happening at various points on the internet. Perhaps even millions.

Sorry that this space isn't dedicated to that, though.

She had plenty of supporters, why do you think Bernie was shut out? It was just mostly the older and more centrist democrats, so not people on here.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

She had plenty of supporters, why do you think Bernie was shut out?

Because her supporters run the party.

[-] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

And there was plenty of people who supported her in the caucus, which was 100% ordinary people voting with their butt. It's fine if you don't like her, but don't act like nobody supported her. You and the people you talk to aren't the entire democratic party.

[-] SinAdjetivos@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Nobody's acting like "nobody supported her". Plenty of people supported her, but she didn't support them and so they should be called by their proper name:

fools

[-] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Three of the comments said or inferred that directly.

[-] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Your downvotes don't change the facts, there was a decent core of supporters in the democratic party. You're wrong when you say no one liked her. The fact that you don't like that wing of the democratic party doesn't change the fact that they're around.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz

[-] Count042@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Because the DNC admitted it in court.

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 8 points 2 months ago

Not plenty enough to keep that orange turd out of office the first time and putting us all in this mess.

[-] mke@programming.dev 17 points 2 months ago

What is your point? Lemmy is full of Trump criticism. It's the norm. One thread shitting on Hillary won't change that.
