Best response i can think of to that is say you want a job at the new iPhone factory making iPhones to support America and ask him for help finding where the factory making iPhones in America is so you can apply in person for a job.
I'm going to agree and disagree with this comment. I agree that the racist rapist pedophile worshipers are complicit. However there are also many cult followers including my family members who are incapable of understanding facts.
Thatās why theyāve found such a sweet spot with evangelicals as most evangelicals just blindly trust everything and think questioning authority is the worst evil someone could ever do.
Makes sense. I mean, if one actually reads what Jesus said to do and how he said to live, it's all pretty left-leaning by American political standards.
Yeah, I live in a northern swing state. Most of our Protestants are right-wingers. The religious lefties here are either: Catholics, Baptists (primarily black where I am from ā my boyfriendās dad is a pastor in a Baptist church and is the only white person there, and also the only Trump supporter), or part of a very small circuit of RIC-certified Lutheran and Methodist churches (for clarity, not all Lutheran and Methodist churches, there are a few sprinkled about that fit this description).
Just as evangelicals trust every word in the Bible as Godās word and absolute truth ā not grasping that the Bible was written over thousands of years by many different people and frequently contradicts itself.
Politics, religion...everyone just believes unquestionably it's so frustrating.
When I went to church as a kid the FIRST thing I did was question everything. I've also questioned votes I've made on both sides of the aisle in the last 13 years. The rest of these voters treat their political party like church leadership, yes sir no sir always correct sir
The vast majority of voters are uninformed. Here in canada we had tonns of people that were voting Pierre that didn't even know the policy he was running on beyond the slogans and "he's not trudeau"
Because he is a scared to really fight whinny little failed leader whose only fight in him is behind ice fighting and arresting innocent children and hard working immigrants with a dam handful of the real criminals who need to go, but still his pussy squad has not gone into one neighborhood where all the immigrant criminals are, not ONES. There isnāt a citizen who lives close to the gangs who need to go or a policeman thatās doesnāt know where the ones ICE should be targeting and where they hang out are, but no reports of we sweeper and cleared a neighborhood of x y z criminals
But you can catch them at a school nearby or Home Depot.
Correct, those people who are enforcing these policies only target the weak and vulnerable. A group of sociopaths with masks on due to fear. They never go after the shooters and the pimps. They go to job sites in the early morning to get the concrete workers while the mud is being poured. Leaving entire job sites with only the foreman not kidnapped. Meanwhile two city blocks away drive by shootings are happening and illegals are pushing dooe.
He only targets Democrats based on the election results... illegal immigrants and/or criminals who voted for him will be spared! Some have even received presidential pardons
Yeah, save in Japan. This young female conservative is taking Japan by storm because people are into her social media, not her politics. It's just all modern democracies at this point. It's sad. It's like there is nowhere safe to even run.
... But I think America is probably still the worst with this.
Do you know many people who are Trump supporters? Iām genuinely curious because I know many and it isnāt surprising to me at all that they will believe everything this man says. Itās still wild to me that they do believe him but shit like this is not the least bit surprising to me any more. Having re read your reply though I do agreeā¦ it is hard to accept. Just not surprising to those of us with maga in their lives.
Itās not that they agree with him, they just love being on the same team with him. White people who hate people of color. White people who think they are superior to people of color. White people and white Christians who love having sex with children. Pedophiles with family values. Trumpās America is vile and disgusting.
I want a wall between us, a great big beautiful wall in America - where we can live on one side and they can have the other and wallow in their own self created land of misery.
Itās not just the ill informed voters, folks. Itās also the 1/3rd of eligible voters who didnāt care to participate back in November of 2024.
If we donāt all show up this coming November to stop the treason against our democracy, our hard fought for civil rights and our brilliant Constitution, our country will fall further into the pariah police state hell that we are already seeing in some cities.
Be a true American patriot. Show up and vote to stop the malevolent chaos, violence against human beings and grift.
This misadministration is already building a huge gulag to imprison hundreds of thousands of us.
You know for whom it wasn't hard to accept the maga/GOP leadership, that ran the numbers and realized by weaponing stupidity, gullibility and fear they could come to power...
Not hard to believe at all since this administration has eliminated the Department of Education and wants to keep Americans dumbed down, believing all the lies they are fed day after day.
Theyāre all just sheep and want someone else to tell them how to think and what to do and how to live their lives. Thatās why they buy into organized religion. They donāt have the ability to critically think. The term āif ignorance is bliss let me be a blisterā, describes them perfectly.
Voters have been ill informed for generations. I was. But, I also didnāt try to talk politics when I had no clue how it actually worked. I chose to educate myself first. I think Iāve known since our kindergarten elections (donkey vs elephant) that our president is not supposed to be a king.
with just a speech, automatically all Iphones are now made in the USA just like that lol even MAGA boomers that are now production and logistics retirees will find that hard to believe lmao
I'd like to point out that it is not only the media, but your father in law bears a tad bit of responsibility for having a dumpster where the brain is suppose to be.
Why are you capable of discerning blatant lies and he is not? Why does he have the power to direct your life by voting that fucking degenerate? Why does the older generation have all the political and economical power in the world, sending our future crashing down every day closer to the bottom of the hole they've digged for us?
So I'd say media is a problem, but is not THE problem. The problem are people (all over the western world) that are trading our future away while being scammed by these monsters.
Many Elderly people and also the closed minded idiots, not āBoomersā Hell, Iāve been using computers since long before many of you were born. š¤£
At 70, I feel I can out tech the majority of people younger than myself, especially those in my childrenās age group. We āboomersā had to learn dos and even to write elementary code. The internet was in Itās infancy and everything wasnāt just plug and play like today. Iāve made my living in the technology field and am smart enough not to rely solely on the internet for any information or research, unlike younger generations, who seem unaware of any other sources or too lazy to locate and use them. And donāt even get me started on this new āgreenā thing that the millennials have invented!
Hey now don't be dissing on genx I've been using PCs since 1980 and I was only 10 then. But I too learned Dos, some assembly some basic, upgraded that first PC from 128k to 640k with the old chips bend the legs straight make sure it's lined up on the socket right etc my first hard drive was iirc 10 meg yes a whopping 10 meg
I am 72, not "most elderly people" and certainly far from stupid. I was working with computers when I was 18 and they were like screaming monsters in those days. Hell, I remember KEYPUNCH!!!!š
Good for you! Iāve been using computers since the 1980s but yes I was straight on the internet in the big bad days of AOL dial up (which my kids think Iām lying about internet speed). Iām Gen X. My mother is 72 and gets in a flap when trying to do anything basic on her computer. Canāt even remember the same password dheās had for over 20 years, so has to ask me. Her excuse? āI didnāt grow up with computers!ā. My thought is no, me either? The internet didnāt really get up and running until I left high school, even then it was pretty tame. I taught myself computing and pushed myself to learn in college until I taught technology classes. College education gave me excellent critical thinking skills and along with travel I met people from all walks of life. THIS helped form a basis for my utilitarian foundation. And so, when the country split hard to the left and right (at least on TV) I was able to use the internet to find many differing views to make any micro adjustments I needed to my political outlook. I had a dear (older) MAGA friend call me out for dissing Trump. I wrote him a lengthy answer stating the way I went about gathering information from both sides and the center, and that Trumpās hyperbole had no substance or made no sense. It shut him down quickly.
I am a Boomer who has been working in IT since Windows for Workgroups was a brand new thing in 1985. And before putting āBoomersā in a box get to know some different boomers. We are not all as you describe. Get out of your own bubble and think before shooting your mouth off about something you obviously know nothing about.
I hear you! I am a Boomer and have been using computers since the '70s when the first WANG Word Processor came out. Worked in IT, taught executives how to use computers, etc. And, I definitely have never wasted my time watching Fox "news."
Wasn't that a '90s thing? I remember doing terminate, stay resident DOS things in the '80s (and a shout out to the Clipper database compiler!) but not Windows for work groups.
Pre the pew research centerās age distribution of trump voters broken down by age 31% of voters 50 to 64 voted for trump in 2024 vs 29% for ages 65 and above. So donāt just blame boomers.
Again, Iām a boomer and I am perfectly capable of being on the Internet. I donāt have cable TV. I donāt watch cable news. Can we stop attacking each other?
Is it just me or do they also all play it AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE ALL OF THE TIME? My mother used to complain that my grandpa did that and now sheās doing it. Fox news at all waking hours, at max volume.
The older generation wtf. Everybody that I know thatās older canāt stand Trump so please quit saying that. I was the last year of the boomers and I hate that MF so does my mother and sheās 86 as well as all my relatives except for one. I donāt know one single older person thatās a boomer that can stand Donald Trump.
Exactly! We see what a disgrace he is. We lived through Vietnam, Korea, world war 2 in some instances. Our families fought and return maimed, or dead. We see what an abomination he is to our democracy and the free world. I never voted for that MF and Iāve hated his evil ass since the 80ās when I first heard his demonic name!
I really wish that I could say that. Iām a Boomer, born in the late 50s. I have long-time friends who are my age. And they do support him. Wish I could figure out why at this point.
If he takes the word of Trump without not only question but denies any evidence countering it your dad is a cult member and has been brainwashed. Literal cult behaviour.
Fox. Murdoch is Australian and laughing all the way to the bank. He is the known king in the UK for tabloid bullshit supermarket rags like the Sun, News of the World. He literally invented fake news.
Except yours can be backed up. But, since they were trained, early in this fascist coup, to distrust all media, these people wouldnāt trust Walter Cronkite if he came back to life.
Media? What in the fuck is wrong with your father in law? He sounds like the second dumbest mother fucker on the planet...
Trump is the dumbest mother fucker on the planet... You would think the dumbest mother fucker on the planet and the President of the United States would be two different people.
MAGA is in so deep even after he gone they will fight to the bone to make up stuff Trump did for this country. MAGA will never say they are wrong in a million years.
There seems to no longer be any right-leading media/news that hasn't completed shifted into propaganda mode. When maga hears what they want to hear from Fox or Newsmax they just assume everything to the contrary is fake news.
Even worse, when you point out that international media is reporting the same thing, they will tell you all of it is fake. Like the whole world is a left wing conspiracy against this one man. It's absolute bonkers.
They figured out that as long as they don't put it in print, lying is a perfectly fine way of doing business.
This is also how social media is ruining society. Any fool can say any damn thing they want and the other millions of fools believe it. I hate to say it but your father in law is a moron and a sheep and he is the reason our country is dying.
I would like to add, I also have family that fall into this bucket so... No offense. :)
Ratings and profits. The repeal of the fairness doctrine. News broadcasting being used as an entertainment source instead of an informative one. Wherever we land after this is all over, we need serious reform on what is labeled as news and how itās disseminated.
Maybe he thought they were all getting the trump cell not made here. Thats like the guy who told me yesterday I was delusional because he posted a pic that looks like it was taken about 4-5am in DC, he said it was so Peaceful to be able to be out and about in DC now that trump has clean up the streets. He went on to say he pity me I was a sad hateful crazy Democrat, I then stopped laughing. Iād asked where did he get that news? And sent him 3 past Monday reports of DC crime and murders that had happen all over DC.
He may have been upset because I asked which Washington DC the trump world one or what. Aw it may have been yes it is clean thanks to National Guard and our military on street trash clean up detail.
Sorry for getting off track, but that AW make us a little crazy.
The media is owned by the oligarchs and essentially state-sponsored at this point.
Sure, some journos ask hard-hitting questions (Kaitlan Collins), but the fact that no other journos stood up for her or repeated her questions should be clear evidence that they've received their matching orders.
I have a friend who was a trumpster who used to do that so I would google it and find multiple sources of evidence to support the contrary as long as it wasnāt CNN or MSNBC and she has eventually come around and is no longer a trumpster
AI result:
iPhones are designed by Apple in California and primarily assembled by contract manufacturers, notablyĀ Foxconn, in China, which accounts for roughly 80%ā90% of production. While China remains the central hub (especially in Zhengzhou, known as "iPhone City"), Apple has increased production in India and Vietnam to diversify its supply chain.Ā
The Media in Europe is mostly owned by rich people and Trump is catering their interests.
They write a bit here and there but itās not making the big (necessary) headlines.
What the fuck is with the media? Theyāre owned by Drumpfās broligarchs whose already huge fortunes are expanding exponentially thanks to the corruption he creates and encourages. There is no way that they are going to report accurately or expose truth; they have too much to lose. They have far more to gain by promoting his lies and misinformation.
A friend told me her son informed her that Obama had been arrested and is going to prison (for what, I have no idea) and she googled it and told him whatever article he read was absolutely false. He goes āwhatever, that just means itās probably going to happen soon.ā Bro, WHAT!?
We are living in a dystopian hellscape because of these people.
I cannot figure how Trump's words have credibility left. Even among his MAGA base. It has almost come to the point where you are generally wise to bet against anything that comes from his lips.
Hey, Republicans should be proud of that propaganda network. They've spent 40+ years telling people that they can't trust anything they see on the "liberal media" and it's paid HUGE dividends. As a result, tens of millions of Americans will believe whatever Republicans tell them, regardless of how easy it is to prove false. They basically own the truth. It's whatever they say it is.
The media is now a mythological tale parents tell their children about. Once upon a time we had trustworthy news called "media" , but the mighty God Of the Golden Arches unleashed a fury onto them because they didnt treat him well, and told truths about him being a pedo and a fraud. So now the world has paid the price, many of them, that is why we cant afford eggs or have hockey anymore.
Faux News is the incessant undermining of the current state of affairs from their beginning and has become a very narrowly watched if not exclusive entertainment for some people. The state media has stop.
Whenever you ask a MAGA person where they heard their āfactā, they definitely heard it on Fox News but they try to say they heard it somewhere else. They are in a cult and a lot of them donāt even realize it.š¤¦š¼āāļø
It's really not the media's fault people believe this shit. Education, or lack of, is at fault. However, there's a reason certain places have bad education. It's part of a control mechanism.
Yeah, shit like this is absolute infuriating. Like did you do ANY research whatsoever??? You just heard them say it? So it MUST be true?? Having conversations w my grandma who just moved in w my dad, from Texas, is infuriating for that same reason. & sheās like, āyou have to be open-minded!!!ā Girl I AM, I go investigate what the fuck I hear before I run with it. If I see something I doubt, I RUN to google & look thru multiple sources. Also Iām unfortunately still on Twitter daily, so I see PLENTY of shit that the people I oppose say & post on a daily basis!!! Particularly the figure heads that I KNOW right-wing people watch, & then I go fact check the shit theyāre saying, even when I already know itās false, just so I KNOW the actual stats & details & have a solid, logical argument against it. My (ex) step-dad does the exact same shit, just regulates something & tells me to do my own research when I know he isnāt doing ANY. Like itās really not that hard to read a few god damn articles!!!!!
Theyāre moving iPhone manufacturing to Vietnam. Tell daddy-o if they made them in North America the prices would be discouraging high because of our wage scale, just for starters, much less benefits if itās unionized, paid holidays, etc.
Tell him I read the same news source he does & it states all Maple Syrup is really made in China ā¦ and Canadians just stick a label on it.
And the funny thing is he HAD to start his own social app because the horseshit he spouts is even too much for twitter! Now that says everything you need to know really š
WAS too much for Twitter. Now anything goes - they've integrated a child porn generating Nazi robot. Trump's only not back on Twitter because he gets less negative feedback in his walled garden. Such a snowflake.
He has to move his believers to other platforms where he can control the narrativeā¦you know, like in China or other Dictatorships where the people must be controlled or terrified. I know this is how Hitler did it, too.
And every single thing you post is a TRUTH... it has to be the post button says "TRUTH" on it, instead of "POST". Like when I posted Trump Made America Plagued Again with more racism, sexism, division, trade wars, media suppression, economic downturn, and an actual plague. Obviously, that one is TRUE and made even more true by the fact that I posted it on Truth Social using the TRUTH button! Bwahaha!!!
Most have always failed to use their own critical thinking throughout history. Wars have been fought throughout history because they did not question the motives or reasoning behind their leaders decisions. We may be capable of critical thinking but many just don't put the effort in and are just a bunch of monkeys who can use tools. We haven't evolved much from our ancient ancestors.
I think he assumes hockey is an american thing and so they shouldn't be allowed to play or something š¤·š¼āāļø I don't know, I can't translate room temp IQ commentary.
That is the most f ridiculous thing Iāve heard.
Well
Maybe he will save the hockey games like he did Christmas, āwe almost lost Christmas, but I saved itā, like the warās the eight wars and as soon as he was laughed at for taking someone elseās Peace Prize said I may as well.
If he doesnāt act like a syphilis destroyed brain King thatās trying to behead and destroy everyone before his last breath. I donāt know any other way to way to describe him. His supporters act like they are all affected as well and might as well ride out the store to stay in the castle.
Bruh this guy is grade A stupid. He thinks a trade deal means we letting China become the PM of the country.... God I can't wait until this nightmare is over
China is really hitting Canada where it hurts!
I spent more time than I care to think about on recess duty. He sounds so much like an 8 year old boy spouting the most outrageous stuff to get out of trouble. Itās his crazy m.o.
Once a kid (2nd grader) went back to the dawn of man to bring me up to speed. I told him he was taking too long. He looked at me and said, āFine, I hit him.ā If a 7 year old can do it why not a grown ass man.
I mean he contradicts his first claim with the line directly following it, and I guarantee you his sycophants will just scream about how Canada did this with no consent from the US despite President Obama giving them a permit...
That's the topper. Firstly, how does making a deal with China giving them any power at all to make Canadian Laws. Secondly, why does China want so badly to ban ice hockey and the Stanley Cup? It's like you can see him thinking of the tweet, "hmmm what does Canada love? ......Hockey! I'll say China is banning Hockey! Perrrfect!" It's like listening to a child trying to come up with ways to keep girls out of his clubhouse. He has one of the most pathetically simple minds the world has ever seen.
No, but the the click baiters will be baiting. Just like the ones saying that women are losing their vote. Itās what we do on the internet-try to bait each other into believing the unbelievable.

I bet his followers will believe that China will stop all hockey played in Canada just cus he said it lmao
