Clearly hasn't started yet?

Stop stooping to their level.

Yeah this was supposedly an hour and a half before it began, and pictures from during the event show it full. It's funny to imagine, but don't let scenes like this make you think you don't need to vote.

Dudes showed up early just to claim a back row seat. Is this algebra class?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

No; you have to think during algebra class

Well given someone died claiming the very front row with Trump, claiming a seat in the back is a smart choice

Although from what I understand, "full" was a few hundred.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

It was full?

In that case: What the fuck OP?? How cheap are you?

I get where you're coming from but the "These people are racist, sexist bigots trying to install fascism" angle isn't working for some reason 😞

Decorum is not a valid strategy against bad faith actors. It's an invitation to get abused.

I agree, but pushing easily debunked narratives is not a winning strategy. There is a picture with more people in this place, so posting this with this caption is just going to reinforce their belief that libs lie.

However, they can't definitively prove jd vance has never fucked a couch.

Memes like this are pure horse shit. Just like the story all over lemmy today about Trump's campaign having to pay up front for a venue, because that's the venue's policy for last minute bookings. Harris would have had to pay in the same circumstances.

As if there isn't enough going on to bag on Trump, why we gotta pull the same shit as the conservatives? Shameful.

Right, no one on stage, while being presented as though there were.

Also clearly more than 24 people.
