The entire video plays out like something a hyped up child might dream up while giggling frantically.
"and, and and and, I am flying a king jet. And it's like WVUSHHHHHHHH. Then it drops the doodie on everyone!11!!!"
NYT is not really doing any favors with that headline, which doesn't do a great job of conveying what the video actually is.
It's going to be interesting to watch the Tone Police and the people that are always ready to lecture liberals about maybe getting a comma out of place trying to bothsides things in the future.
FFS, I hope those sort start getting pied in public when they try that Murc's Law nonsense, when the leader of the Republican Party posted a fake AI video of him shitting all over the public. The people that are bothsidering this stuff are just as much part of the problem as the far right are.
"But don't you dare call the right names like fascist or anything! That might make the Republicans return in kind or something!"
-- Every single "leftist"/"centrist"/"independent" lecturing everyone else on Civil Discourse. I even still see them doing it when they bitch about someone like Newsom mocking the pedo-in-chief. Many did it last year when the Democrats started calling the freaks of the right "weird" - which is true and was showing signs of working.
I’d love to see what Kenny Loggins thinks about this.
I'd like to see what Sterling Archer thinks about all this.
One form of 4D Warfare is memetic warfare. Many have studied this grand and ancient art. I hope that by the end of this book, you will be able to perfect your memeing to unprecedented levels of winning.
There you have it! This guy is a major, major source of MAGA ideology and strategy. And this confirms that MAGA's strategy really is a disingenuous, intentionally heightened, intentiontally threatening-and-gaslighting spectacle of fascism (in addition, of course, to being an actual fascist movement). Like a small creature puffing themselves up defensively, they are intentionally wielding the tools of propaganda, gaslighting, and manipulation in a campaign of public terrorization. Confirmed.

- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
