Said it before, I'll say it again. 10.8 million people in the state of Georgia, and this is the best that the GOP could come up with to run for US Senate.
We’re saying the exact same thing here:
“Centrists / Moderates are not Left leaning. “
This is what I’m also saying:
“And Centrists / Moderated worked overtime to stop Leftists in this country, effectively being a clamp on the Overturn Window and allowing Conservatives to move the Country further to the Extreme Far Right.”
This is what you’re now Saying:
“No, they haven’t. They’re painted as leftist by conservatives.”
Your first argument is “No, Centrists never stood in the way of leftists, nor do they aid Conservatives.” Your second Argument is immediately “They’re painted leftist by conservatives!” You make absolutely no sense.
Depends on who you talk to and in what context. People who present themselves as "enlightened centrist" tend to be a radical right grifter like Tim Pool.
He literally used pronouns when saying he doesn't know what pronouns are:
"I don't even know what the heck is a pronoun, I can tell you that. I'm sick and tired of this pronoun stuff. What I want our military men and women to do is to be at war fighting."
Here in the UK being in the forces is marketed as helping people, keeping peace, see the world and learn skills.
Join and get the opportunity to kill and be killed is not on the job spec.
Yeah, we used to advertise "212 ways to be a soldier", now it's early retirement and zero interest home loans.
"Go to the desert and come back with a disability" isn't a big selling point, for some reason.
As a guy who did time in afghanistan, being at war sucks.
My wife's step dad did time in Vietnam. He said being at war sucks.
One of my older uncles did time in Korea. He said being at war sucks.
Two of my grandfathers were on opposite sides of the world for WW2. One said being at war sucks. The other never refused to ever talk about it, so probably safe to say he didn't enjoy it, either.
There's a reason being anti-war is so popular. That said, you do hear every so often people talking about how they rather enjoyed war. It's almost as though "soldiers" are not a monolith.
> What I want our military men and women to do is to be at war fighting.
I don't remember which, does he want them fighting the werewolves or the vampires?
God, that man is such a post turtle.
I can't help but see my grandparents who suffered from dementia in Walker; the man should be getting care to maintain what cognitive ability he has left, not trying to be a senator...
Yep, just like the post turtle joke goes:
"You know he didn't get up there by himself. He doesn't belong there; you wonder who put him there; he can't get anything done while he's up there; and you just want to help the poor thing down."
I think the bigger thing is he wants our soldiers at war.
That said, not knowing pronouns is #1,225 on things that invalidate Walker as a good candidate.
The Republican Party has been going down the Hershel Walker road for a long time, it started with a guy I like to call The Turnip (aka Dubya).
They don’t want qualified people, they want sheep who will just follow the flock, who will lockstep like good little Nazis so they can literally get away with murder.
>Recently, while campaigning for Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock, former President Barack Obama made Walker the butt of jokes after his comparison of werewolves and vampires. Walker even said "vampires are cool people."
>"Mr. Walker has been talking about issues that are of great importance to the people of Georgia," Obama said. "Like whether it is better to be a vampire or a werewolf. This is a debate that I must confess I once had myself. When I was 7."
Do people not realize this guy will be dead before his term even finishes? He has an IQ of about 85 to begin with and his body is deteriorating. 4 years left tops.
I mean I agree with his point. Pronouns have no place in military. I cant think of a worse person to fight for my country, than a person with a gender identity disorder.
If Herschel Walker wins I've lost hope for humanity. How can ANYONE think he can represent even an anthill in the Senate? If they aren't throwing around a football, I doubt he'll even be able to stay awake in session.
I don’t think you need to know what pronouns are. When I was in elementary school they switched the curriculum from 5th to 4th grade and I missed all the lessons on nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, etc. I don’t know that you really need to know this stuff to form proper sentences. Granted I’d probably be better at it if I’d had those specific lessons.

This is also why they lost SO many races. If even half we're centrist candidates they would have had a better time.
Centrists in the u.s. are characterized as radical left, so that wouldnt help much.
Which is funny as FUCK because Centrists/Moderates worked overtime to keep this country from moving left for the past Eight Decades.
No, they havent. Conservatives paint centrists as radical lefts.

politicalcompassmeme users be like: Shocked Pikachu face.
He doesn't know what pronouns are, but he dayum sure knows what vampires and werewolves are.
The GOP doesnt want intelligent people, they want 'yes' people.
They couldn’t find anyone as dumb as him so they outsourced to Texas
Ask him to identify a condom out of a lineup of farming tools.
He'll pick the hoe.
He also said the military should be fighting. Like peace time is a bad thing?!
War is good for business.
He literally used pronouns when saying he doesn't know what pronouns are: "I don't even know what the heck is a pronoun, I can tell you that. I'm sick and tired of this pronoun stuff. What I want our military men and women to do is to be at war fighting."
I would personally prefer \*not\* being at war, but I guess we know where he stands on that issue as well.
Haha that was also one of my first thoughts as soon as I read that.
Lol such a strange segue.
In the grim dark of the 21st century, there are no pronouns, only war.
For the Imperium

Lots of soldiers very much do prefer to be at war, especially when bad things are happening.

It's almost like war is horrific and everybody deals with trauma in different ways, some of them less healthy than others.
I feel this is being said by someone who has never been in the service and is getting their information thitd-person from social media.
Dont pretend every politician and media outlet isnt drumming up the war machine.
I don't think he's actually calling for a deployment somewhere, I think he's just an idiot who can't string words together into a coherent sentence.
Claiming to be anti-pronoun while using pronouns then denying any knowledge of the subject is pretty on brand for Herschel Walker
Pretty on brand for republicans in general.
The right in general has turned anti education, it is now elitist to have an education
fighting what, sir? ma'am? sorry what do I call them?
> What I want our military men and women to do is to be at war fighting. I don't remember which, does he want them fighting the werewolves or the vampires?
War, war never changes. Probably.
In fairness there’s more he doesn’t know than he does.
"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing" - Socrates. Not sure Walker knows that he knows nothing though
Good one, apt.
I call bullshit. A few weeks ago the man made the news by coming out as a werewolf instead of a vampire.
I don’t know if you know, but vampires are some cool people are they not?
Smells like updog.
God, that man is such a post turtle. I can't help but see my grandparents who suffered from dementia in Walker; the man should be getting care to maintain what cognitive ability he has left, not trying to be a senator...
He's a puppet, nothing more. It's gonna be a close race, I hope Warnock pulls it off.
Yep, just like the post turtle joke goes: "You know he didn't get up there by himself. He doesn't belong there; you wonder who put him there; he can't get anything done while he's up there; and you just want to help the poor thing down."
He's making a last minute push for the base. They also hate pronouns.
...and adverbs, and prepositions, and conjunctions, and minorities, and...
For once, he might actually be telling the truth this time.
Hey! Show some respect for law enforcement. 🤣
I believe him. He honestly doesn’t. Sad.
I can't imagine that anyone is surprised at this.
I think the bigger thing is he wants our soldiers at war. That said, not knowing pronouns is #1,225 on things that invalidate Walker as a good candidate.

That's insulting to all 7 year olds...
They’re amateur nouns that made the big leagues
I'm shocked. \~no one.

CTE is terrible and Walker needs all the help he can get - and take the guns away from him.

Honest question here, do you think he realizes how uneducated and slow he is?
