Brian Cox, who played Lecter in the 1986 film "Manhunter," commented to Deadline in an interview last year regarding Trump: "How the f--k can this country vote for such a f--king a----le?"

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 17 points 1 year ago

What I came here to say. Thanks.

[-] GiantRobotTRex@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 year ago

How did they decide which letters to censor? Especially for "a----le". Why the "l" but not the "h" or "o"?

[-] happilybitchycowboy@lemmy.world 52 points 1 year ago

Eat the rich just got a new meaning...

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

“Don’t eat junk food.”- Hannibal, maybe

[-] thorbot@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Eating shit just got a new meaning…

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

He eats too many Hamburders and probably tastes gamey. A nice grass fed Trump might be better.

[-] Cylusthevirus@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Well your factory fed Trumps are pretty pale; they get all their coloration from artificial bronzing agents. But a grass fed Trump gets his color from eating a diet rich in beta carotene.

[-] DigitalTraveler42@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

No Donald Trump would eat the poor, and a whole lot of them, just like most of his policies.

[-] twelvefloatinghands@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Same one as before I think.

[-] e_mc2@feddit.nl 45 points 1 year ago

And if you read the article, it is yet another lie. This man is simply not capable of not lying.

[-] irmoz@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

Did you really expect it to be true? Why did you even consider that it could be true?

[-] RojoSanIchiban@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago

Every rambling, incoherent, traitorous "speech" this dumbfuck makes has dozens of "what the actual fuck" deranged moments that would have the right absolutely jumping-insane-frothing-spewing-shit-out-their-asses crazy if Joe Biden said even ONE of them.

This cult needs to fuck off to Russia already. All of them.

[-] Denalduh@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Biden should straight up troll the MAGA base by repeating one of trumps batshit crazy quotes. Let them take the bait and clutch their pearls. Unfortunately, I know that base is too ignorant/hypocritical for it to make any sense and it would probably do more damage than good.

[-] _g_be@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You're suggesting pointing out hypocrisy. Pointing it out is entirely ineffective. They just laugh and call it "owning the libs" because they are subverting the system and getting what they want. I wouldn't dismiss it as 'ignorant' so much as malicious.

[-] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago

Wow... this one isn't The Onion either.

[-] DarkGamer@kbin.social 25 points 1 year ago
[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

And the only time I can see Mads Mikkelsen saying anything about Trump, he seems rather indifferent to him.

[-] ChrisLicht@lemm.ee 24 points 1 year ago

Hypothesis: He confused noted Trump fan and Lebaron driver, Jon Voigt, for Anthony Hopkins.

Definitely not a professor of Spanish if they don't know what "porque no" means 😄

[-] thorbot@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 year ago

And "porque no" means "why not?". Spanish is funny like that.

[-] JWBananas@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

It does not. "¿Por qué no?" means "Why not?" whereas "Porque no" means "Because not." The spelling is similar, but the lack of a space changes the meaning.

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 year ago
[-] JWBananas@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

Cool, I can do that too.

Are you really trusting an AI over an actual speaker?

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 2 points 1 year ago

Hey guess what?

  1. it apparently means both and we arrived at demonstrating that via the same method, automatic translation

  2. I don't care if you're the king of Spain or the president of Mexico, doesn't change the language

  3. lastly and most importantly, I was referencing a popular meme in a glib manner. That's what you're so overzealous about "correcting".

[-] JWBananas@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

It does not mean both, and I was not the original person who corrected your usage. Your incorrect understanding does not change the language.

Garbage in, garbage out. You asked it to translate ungrammatical Spanish and it gave you a translation anyway, probably because lots of people accidentally write "por qué" as "porque". It's still wrong, though.

[-] SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Or he's just making shit up knowing that his base will eat it up without thinking

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

LOL, check the teeth marks maybe.

[-] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

“He’s always inviting me over for dinner!”

[-] riskable@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

It makes sense if you think of the exposed brain scene 🤷

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

...and bothsiderists - and of course the radicalized right wing - have the gall to talk about Biden's mental condition?

[-] YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 year ago

Trump’s supporters are probably saying that Lecter is now their favourite actor.

[-] Tronn4@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

He's like Billy Madison when he explains all that stupid shit and the principal tells him everyone in the room is stupider because of him but he loves the attention anyway

[-] zammy95@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Ted Bundy is half sonichu and Hannibal the Cannibal stans Trump. What a weird week

[-] Xariphon@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

One psychopath to another he probably would.

[-] stopthatgirl7@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Hannibal wouldn’t even eat him, and the rude are normally his favorite meal.

[-] thorbot@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

All that orange makeup is leaking into his shriveled little brain. I wonder what other fictional character will endorse him next?

“Scooby Doo said he loves me! So I love him. I love him. I love him”

Okay gramps, time to go back to the home
