People of America.
Now that Mr. Mamdani won, I am expecting to see the result of his secret cloning programme. I was promised a large exo-dodo!
Do not disappoint me!

Can someone already tap into pop culture and reference Andor S2 in the US Senate?
Screenshot of Genevieve O'Reilly as Senator Mon Mothma from Andor S2E9 with part of her speech: "The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil."

In theory yes, in practice not really as using it meant someone has to stand behind the turret on the engine deck, unprotected.
But I meant contraptions like the M2 Medium Tank "Brownings everywhere" or the early M3/M4 with a fixed pair of .30...

Literally...
Meme based on Season 2, episode 6 of The Eric Andre Show, which aired November 7th, 2013.[1] While making a joke about climate change, Andre turns and shoots several bullets into Buress. He then reloads the weapon, and fires several bullets at Buress again, then turns to the camera and asks "Who killed Hannibal?" Panel 1: Andre with a caption "Chief Justice Roberts" shoots at Buress in the armchair with caption "Rule of Law" Panel 2: Andre turned to camera asks "Why isn't the rule of law respected?"

Guards, Guards!
Sir PTerry knew the human soul...
"They avoided one another's faces, for fear of what they might see mirrored there. Each man thought: one of the others is bound to say something soon, some protest, and then I'll murmur agreement, not actually say anything, I'm not stupid as that, but definitely murmur very firmly, so that the others will be in no doubt that I thoroughly disapprove, because at a time like this it behooves all decent men to nearly stand up and be almost heard... No one said anything. The cowards, thought each man." Terry Pratchett, "Guards! Guards!"
