These are the Pod Save America libs (and former Obama aides) for those mercifully unaware
Literally the first image that came to my mind after seeing the picture
Fucking white cischet males
Looks like an AI monstrosity
When they say Asians look the same:
Imagine thinking you're protecting abortions by supporting the guy who was President when Roe was overturned, and said this year that he's never been a supporter of women's bodily autonomy
Is there a clip of that? I might need that to share around
Then, reiterating his position on Roe, he said, “I’ve never been supportive of, you know, ‘It’s my body, I can do what I want with it.’ But I have been supportive of the notion that this is probably the most rational allocation of responsibility that all the major religions have signed on and debated over the last thousand years.”

Why do the Pod Johns look like the worst indie game dev studio of all time
They look like they're being interviewed by IGN about how they'll completely shake up the battle royale genre
You say that like a battle royale game themed around neolib propaganda wouldn’t be the greatest interactive entertainment ever conceived.
Call of Duty already has a battle royale mode, set in the Donbass even.
What the fuck REALLY?
They made a battle Royale set in a real ongoing war? Wtf
Catering to the genocidal racism of westerners is highly profitable, as it turns out
To be “fair”, it was made before the Russian invasion, when the Donbass War was pretty frozen. And I think they don’t use that map anymore. Still though…
I wish Neolib Thunderdome existed and it was live streamed.
Chuck Schumer/John Fetterman working the MasterBlaster gimmick.
NOOOO! He has the mind of a child!
no man's sky ahh goobers
As a cishet guy... abortions absolutely affect men too. The inability of your gf/wife to terminate pregnancy early forces both of you and the future child to now contend with a worse fate brought on by right wing politicians that could be solved in most cases. Not to mention on the flip side, if you intended to have a child and your partner is facing complications that could kill them yeah that affects them/your potential child, but it also affects the father in this case.
I could make a similar argument for why misogyny also should matter even to cishet men, but, kinda redundant.
The argument she's making only applies to right wingers who actively support the oppression of women. If you're not some psychotic demon and do believe women have the right to control their own bodies including ending a pregnancy if they feel (or a doctor convinces them using evidence) it's necessary or the best option... then this argument doesn't really work. You're already supporting the person or party that agrees with that stance.
The problem she's encountering here is the total inability for right wing liberals, who just happen to barely not be total full Christian fascists, are deluded into thinking Biden can win this- HE CANNOT. Their best argument, their absolute best case scenario, shows Biden/Trump being like 48 Biden 52 Trump in a head to head, no other choice thing. THAT MEANS HE FUCKING LOSES. It actually has zero to do with ideology, belief in Joe ™️ (they sound like Hilldawg people still with her ™️), or support/not support for Trump. The facts are the facts and they currently show that Biden has effectively no chance at victory, and if the DNC sticks with Genocide Joe he will lose. So every thing she just wrote there would be correctly flipped around on her. She's the one supporting a loser to Trump.
Also fuck the cowardly pod Johns (release the deleted Felix content!), but they are doing politics correctly if the goal is to win. If your goal is to just support a dead sack of worthless shit who can't win and most of the party wants gone... then I guess she's doing something...
You know how fascists will always shrink the acceptable group? This is the lib version of that (tautology I know).
(and former Obama aides)
And there it is. Apparently Obama is trying to engineer a scenario behind the scenes so that Biden has to drop out.
God - I hope that actually becomes some kind of mainstream lib conspiracy theory and they give him a nickname like Traitorbama or something.
The Biden team is already telling journalists that they think Obama is "orchestrating" all of the criticism of Biden
Democrat civil war? Kind of surprised they would turn on Obama with how heavily they revere him.
I think this idea comes straight from Biden, he's never been a particularly clever guy and people suffering from dementia/alzheimers often get paranoid and aggressive. I think he's probably harbored a hate for Obama because he's always been more popular, more competent, etc, and now it's coming out.
Also I don't really doubt Clooney and other DNC boosters/donors/officials would reach out to Obama, the guy who told Biden not to run in 2016 and 2020, to make sure they have his blessing. No orchestration really involved, just reaching out to the more popular, wiser, and not geriatric de facto "leader" of the party to make sure they're not fucking up by saying what everybody already knows.
reminds me of that video clip where Obama and Biden are both in a crowd of what looks like other politicians and everyone is clamoring to shake Obama's hand and Joe is just standing there like "wtf I'M the president"
Biden blaming a black man for his senility is really a pretty wild bit but we should have seen it coming from that old racist idiot
The four horsemen of 
Are these the Pod Johns?
They are indeed
Coincidentally, a "Four Horseman of John" is a type of demonic misshapen man-eating creature summoned by god to cause suffering on earth in a post-apocalyptic anime.
The Four PodJohns of the Apocalypse will do a fusion dance to become QuadPodJohn
You absolutely love to see it.

IDK what does a Vice Chair of the DNC have to do with a genocidal war their party is fully backing? It's a fucking mystery!
smh White-on-White violence
I'm just gonna have a seat and watch this unfold 
Biden Bros
Behold: pure white women energy
Poverty is the concern of any working class.
It’s why we willingly turn ourselves over to exploitation - to avoid being destroyed by this evil system.
The rest is more or less correct and funny to see Obama Libs treated this way
One of these guys is going to be on the next season of Survivor which is an unacceptable conflation of two spheres of my existence.
Slightly off topic: if I want to watch Survivor should I just start at season 1 or is there a better point to jump in?
I always advocate for starting from season 1. Its a great cultural time capsule in a lot of ways and has a unique docmentary style to it that becomes less of a thing later on. More character focus, and "the game" hasnt developed yet which makes it different from anything else because "the game" was accepted as part of the experience immediately upon the very next season. And the ways the show evolves is part of the experience. Theres some stuff thats considered not so great television early on (late season 2, most of season 5 with some gems mixed in) but its all basically worth it for the overall experience. Like if I was trying to get someone into the show who was hesitant about it I might have them start with season 7 Pearl Islands (easily the best old school season and imho still the best one overall), season 15 China, or maybe Season 28 Cagayan if I think they'd be interested more in a more modern experience. There's also season 16 Micronesia and season 20 Heroes vs Villians, but those involve returning players so I feel they cant be properly experianced without seeing their previous showings. But those are both also top tier seasons. But if you actually find the basic concept interesting, go ahead and start from the beginning.
(Also hey if you do end up doing this, try to remember to DM me your thoughts. Or even add me on discord if you have one. I'd love to talk about it. )
I think I will just start on season 1 then. Thank you for the in depth reply!
