dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

~~Biden's team seems to have tried to scrub this video from the web almost entirely. It used to be easily available on YouTube, but it was replaced with a shortened version which cuts off the part where he just goes off the rails about Xi Jinping. I guess then they can just blame it on his "stutter".~~

~~Anyway, I found it on an old Facebook post from a year ago, so enjoy, and save it to your devices folks lest it be permanently memory holed.~~

Ok apparently it is still available on YouTube, it was only showing up with the shortened version when I looked earlier.

In any event, still an amazing gaffe.

Edit: PolitiFact: Joe Biden described America as “the foothills of the Himalayas with Xi Jinping.”FALSE Five Pinocchios ! maybe-later-kiddo maybe-later-honey

Edit2: I replaced the stupid Zuckerberg URL with the regular YouTube one as pointed out by comrade @dead@hexbear.net because apparently I don't know how to use a search bar

I'm not sure if you can call it a gaffe, but my favorite one was when Biden admitted to the Nordstream 2 bombings months before they happened. What a Chad this guy is. Goes out, says he'll do it, does it, and then gets the media to run cover for him anyway.

It's incredible how much more coherent Biden was when this video was taken. MF is gonna drop dead any day now.
