Yes, this is a shitpost community, but I still feel obligated to make sure folks know this isn't real.

[-] alekwithak@lemmy.world 93 points 10 months ago

So many fake Simpsons Trump "Predictions" I see them literally everywhere. It's so weird how hard people try to push this shit, especially considering The Simpsons has made plenty of amazingly and eerily accurate ... prognostications? But you never see those on mainstream social media. Only the fake Trump ones.

[-] joekar1990@lemmy.world 32 points 10 months ago

It's all ragebaiting and clicks now.

[-] Geobloke@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

I didn't believe because it looks like it happened post season 10 and therefore isn't canon

[-] P1k1e@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

BUT IT COULD BE

I'll say, it wouldn't fix anything. Vance is way more psychotic and calculated. He's actually waaaay more dangerous than Trump.

Vance combines the philosophy of a Nazi legal theory loving ivy league elite like Adrian Vermeule, with Curtis Yarvin, and Peter Theil. In a lot of ways I think Trump buffoonery keeps people distracted from a lot of their evil shit, but I also honestly feel like Trump's ego demanding he always be the focus of attention, is acting as a chaotic buffer to keep their plans from working out as smoothly as they would like. I think Musk was even probably more of a distraction than we realized, and the only reason he's becoming less involved is because Kratsios is able to do just as much awful shit that nobody wants but look normal by comparison to the chainsaw wielding maniac that was proudly getting like 7 hours of sleep a week. I'm honestly not sure if Theil set him up once again like he did with PayPal. Or did Musk know he was just the face that would take the blame for holding the country hostage while robbing us of money that will now be sunk into an absurd number of AI projects with Thiel's protege at the helm as Science Advisor?

I wish we could just get the entire dishonest administration removed from office, but we can't even get most members of the House and Senate to acknowledge they're actively trying to destroy the United States because they seriously believe their loyalty will be rewarded. Bc the fuckers that plan to replace everything with shitty AI would definitely never be able to replace them.

trump's danger is in his charisma, which vance lacks. even with his gifts, he would be less effective

...because they seriously believe their loyalty will be rewarded.

This is the only part I disagree with. I don't think they think they'll be rewarded, they just don't want to be targeted. Trump is a mob boss.

The US system baffles me.

No way an unelected individual would take office in my country.

If the president dies, the national assembly president assumes the role, internally, and is mandated, by force of law, to schedule elections to within 90 days.

The only time an unelected person was nominated for a government role in this country ended terribly, with the president disbanding the national assembly and scheduling elections in less than 30 days after the apointment and the appointment had been aproved by the national assembly.

[-] timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago

I mean, it's obviously a terrible system.

But as a caveat, he was elected. You vote for a ticket and he's on that ticket.

How would you know? The only way to verify this is to actually watch something from the last twenty years of The Simpsons, and nobody's going to do that.

[-] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 10 months ago

It's me, I did that. Never missed an episode (except for the 4 I am behind on, that I am going to watch this weekend).

He can't die. If he dies how will he institute martial law April 20th?

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 41 points 10 months ago

All the more reason that the protest on April 19th is the most important one yet. It may be our last chance to have one safely.

protest

[-] chowdertailz@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

I have the thought they're going to use the protests on the 19th as provocation to institute martial law... I'm all for the protest and have been to most of the 50501s but the 19th has me worried.

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Then let’s keep it peaceful and not give them reason.

[-] pivot_root@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

I wouldn't put it past them to pull a move out of the authoritarian playbook and hire people to act as violent protesters just in case.

lmao I was thinking the same. I have it in my calendar. can't remember what the reason is supposed to be, but April 20th is martial law day

[-] Freshparsnip@lemm.ee 23 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

April 20th is Hitler's birthday

And also Easter so maybe he's gonna arrest the Easter bunny

And also the weed smokers

[-] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

20 April 1889

I did not know that. Does fit with my theory that all numbers are nazi numbers.

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago

Wow that entire DECADE was sending subtle dogwhistles

[-] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 17 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Kristi Noem and Pete Hegseth are compiling reports regarding the "national emergency" at the border, and advising if the insurrection act is an appropriate response. Their reports are due the 20th.

[-] witchybitchy@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

ahh yeah, that's it. border 'crisis'

[-] Theprogressivist@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Something about 420 being a nazi thing.

Depends on what season this is from. Can't really say the Simpsons Did It rule applies to the last fifteen years or so.

Edit: Not even real womp womp

[-] paintcup@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

Is this an actual episode?

[-] TimeNaan@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Looks like AI to me

[-] RobotZap10000@feddit.nl 8 points 10 months ago

Open casket means that some dummy had mercy on him, or they just borrowed that one animatronic from Disney World.

[-] angstylittlecatboy@reddthat.com 8 points 10 months ago

Don't give me hope like that.

I'm more optimistic than the average Lemmy user, but that's too much.
