This post and the subsequent replies are, and I mean this as a compliment, *extremely* good propaganda especially for the short video documentary age. Come learn some things.

Guy from Washington state drives across the country, kills two West Virginians who should've been at home, and not deployed in D.C., and so Trump sends 500 more guardsmen to D.C.

Pointed out by my friend @carloshasanax.bsky.social . There's something weird and unsettling about a fairly homogeneous culture spread out across Europe that then collapses into an orgy of genocide.

No one suggests that we kick out white Americans because of Jeffrey Dahmer. Why not extend Afghans the same right to be treated as individuals, especially since many Afghans who made it here risked their lives to help our soldiers?

2 kids who should never have been sent to DC and who likely did not want to be there are dead bc of a political stunt. Regardless of the proximate reasons these deaths happened, the ultimate outcome will be days of right wing rage followed by worse decisions that put more people at risk.

precisely my thought. the president and his dumbass republican allies put these men and women into harm’s way for a political stunt and look what has happened
Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

- A negligent discharge
- An argument between Guard members

That these memes seemed to work really underscores what a tremendous own goal it was for leftists to validate their logic.
Harris said the word "lethal" in her DNC speech; meanwhile Trump had a tremendously bloody record as *President.*
But a lot of online influencers only emphasised the former.
