I swear this is part of a wider ongoing experiment. "What's the most comically ridiculous, most bullshit conspiracy we can come up with that the maga cult will believe".

Whoever is behind it: please stop. We've known for a long time now that there's is no bottom to that well.

Good. Trump needs a lot more than the MAGA cult to win an election (I wish I didn't have to keep saying this). If we can convince them to start spreading the rumor about bigfoot in Ohio to the point that Vance and/or Trump starts talking about it, plenty of people leaning right will say, "this dude is nuts. No way am I voting for him." They might not vote for Harris, but they also might not vote at all.

Trump needs a lot more than the MAGA cult to win an election (I wish I didn't have to keep saying this).

But he doesn't in order to seize power undemocratically, which is his real game plan here. Remember, the NAZIs never had more than 30-something percent support in 1930s Germany, either.

Okay, but that's a totally different issue from what we're discussing.

Also, he doesn't have the concentration of people to do it. January 6th happened because he was able to concentrate people in D.C. and was president at the time.

Ideology for many of the conservative mindset is more important that principles. The Democratic leaning voters are the ones that can be fickle enough to stay home but the Republicans would still vote

If you mix it with racism, they'll believe just about anything.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

Turns out Bigfoot is brown, and migrates north for the summer. We need to let JD Vance know STAT.

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

Yeah, true. That's the special ingredient.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Call JD Vance's office and make up the most ridiculous shit. Say that Obama has been spotted shoving smaller gerbils up the asses of larger gerbils. The funnier we get this, the more "weird" Trump and Vance seem

Holy shit, that had me nearly crying with laughter!

Yo. I called to say I saw JD fucking a couch. They pretty much have to make that public now or else it will seem like they have some sort of weir bias against immigrants.

[–] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Remove weir bias now!!!!

All water retention systems matter!!!

[–] UrPartnerInCrime@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Ok, but weirs make up 13% of....

[–] stormeuh@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

...dams, and despite that, they contribute 69% of cat and dog deaths in Springfield, Ohio. Why is that? Just asking questions...

[–] shield_gengar@sh.itjust.works 16 points 6 days ago

JD couchplower and associates

Can you imagine going out in public wearing a diaper with a big fake bandage on your ear yelling about people eating dogs

I used to think furries were weird, they ain't got shit on these people

[–] lennivelkant@discuss.tchncs.de 52 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Most furries are harmless. A few are creeps with no concept of boundaries. Some are particularly deluded Nazis. Like every group of some size, they have a certain percentage of scum. Depending on your standards, they might be weird, but I'll take harmless weirdness over harmful normalcy any day, let alone harmful weirdness.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 16 points 6 days ago

We're actually some of the larger donaters to animal based charities, I've yet to go to a furcon that didn't make 10s of thousands for endangered animal rescue.

Haitians are eating the furries.

When furries eat dogs it's purely consensual, and they pass the harkness test when we do.

Jokes aside, I'm a furry and even I don't fully understand vore.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 3 points 5 days ago

I refuse to believe it’s real. It’s just shock value to call for attention.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

When I was a kid it was people saying the Vietnamese immigrants that were eating pets, and the Latinos were sacrificing them

Sounds like a normal night out in Dallas, TX to me.

[–] EdgeOfToday@lemm.ee 79 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Right, no one saw bigfoot because the Haitians ate him. There's almost nothing the Haitians won't eat. /s

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 38 points 6 days ago (1 children)

5 minutes since this guy posted and we haven't heard from him since. FUCKING HATIANS ATE HIM

[–] PlantJam@lemmy.world 17 points 6 days ago

I think the /s stands for screaming. Which would be an appropriate response, given the situation.

I just saw Big Foot with a Venezuelan gang member sharing a cat bbq!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 47 points 6 days ago

Please call J.D. Vance's office, as one does about such issues.

[–] Starbuck@lemmy.world 16 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I saw Haitian migrants eating Bigfoot’s pets!

Im sharing this with all my friends to do the same. I just called and said I saw one in texas.

Bigfoot is real, and he tried to eat my ass.

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (2 children)
[–] korny@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Who said otherwise, did you talk to Bigfoot? Did he say anything about me?

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

My brother's, third cousin in laws, friend's, cashier at the local grocery store saw the whole thing...

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

I'm a tease.

[–] Cock_Inspecting_Asexual@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

If you call his office to say that you saw Democrats send Bigfoot to force trans surgery on hunters in the woods it will be his next headline.

[–] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 39 points 6 days ago

Could also let him know about that couch you saw on the street..... ask why he kicked out his mistress.

[–] patacon_pisao@lemmy.world 24 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Someone should warn them that an orange monster has been eating the brains of countless Americans, anyone eating cats has competition!

[–] Sway_Chameleon@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

He doesn't eat brains, McDonalds doesn't have brains on the menu. He just slowly poisons minds with his illogical gibberish.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Did this happen? Did Kimmel announce the office line for JD's people?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 27 points 6 days ago (4 children)

It did. In fact, he did yesterday too and told them to call and say that cupcake sprinkles made their kid gay, but this is better.

That was two hours ago. How did it go?

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 13 points 6 days ago (5 children)

Look, I'm an abigfootist too. But it's just uncool to insult other people's beliefs. There's no proof that there isn't a Bigfoot anyways. Let's just be cool and accepting of their belief in Bigfoot, even if bigfootists are voting.
