Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

he's gonna take his Obama impersonation to the next level.

If he did blackface at the convention, the rest of the DNC and American media would brush it off as "an awkward costume."

Worked for Justin Trudeau

lathe-of-heaven I don't really want this to happen, but now I have a feeling he will at least do an accent to the same effect at some point

[–] john_brown@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

He was heavily coached to make him speak in the cadence of Obama already, white zero charisma Dems have been doing this for a decade

[–] MLRL_Commie@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I believe that very easily. But I mean that he will do an outwardly offensive one, not just steal cadence and mannerisms

Let me Buttigieg here. But I will be serious for a moment. Now more than ever - the shape of our democracy is the issue that affects every other issue.

it's okay, he's just doing an Obama costume

He did such an amazing homage to Obama during his speech to the convention
