It's so interesting how the whole X/Rumble ecosystem creates a false sense of reality to the point where political campaigns are run based off appealing to people who are not assured to be real or even exist in the local electorate.

That's always been the case. Republicans are more online after COVID and are falling for the same kinds of fake rage bait bullshit that leftists fell for during King Nigger's reign on Facebook and early Twitter. Occupy Democrats type of bullshit.

It's something I've been saying for a long time. It's really retarded to assume that the people you're speaking with are actually Americans. Just because they're utilizing the English language does not mean that they bleed Red White & Blue. Yes, people are actually willing to lie on the Internet.
Bots and online monetization are way more of a thing today than 15 years ago so a bunch of people are getting their minds absolutely raped by jeets gaming the system to farm Elon bux.

Having boomer and tech-illiterate candidates isn't helping.

What i found funny was he thought an Internet campaign would work in Kentucky. I've been there. It's a rural place. It isn't the stone age or anything, but its not LA either where the Internet and big tech is the most pressing issue. He did not target his audience at all and got fucked. He would have had more success with FM radio ads.
 
RFK and Oz talked about securing some pledges for medical stuff, yeah it's pledges but they bring up good things. Oz in particular mentions how shit hospital food is and how you can provide better food for just 5% more cost because you don't throw away half the food like in current hospital setups. Having had one of my parents in the hospital in the past 6 months, the food is shit and does nothing to make you feel better or encourage healing or rest, it's horrible "healthy" shit like boiled chicken and steamed vegetables made by mexicans with any health value destroyed by the from concentrate juices or shitty ice cream.

This reminds me of that shitty movie Super Size Me, where the faggot drunk alcoholic's "findings" made hospitals remove McDonald's from their buildings and children's hospitals because it wasn't seen as healthy, and even that faggot Spurlock said in the commentary he didn't agree with it because the argument that was correctly used by the actual doctors and McDonald's was these kids are sick and sometimes dying, and having to take hard medicines and therapies, so let them eat something greasy because they need to eat something and to also feel normal.


Here's Alex Clark, some conserva-thot girlboss who announced she's engaged after basically admitting she's settling down for the nice guy, but he's clearly very very very gay:

LMAO what? Are you talking about kinds of oil and not most of their imports. This reads like a LLM hallucination.

BEIJING, May 9 (Reuters) - China's oil imports fell to the lowest level in almost four years in April as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz choked off supplies to the world's largest oil ‌importer.
Crude oil imports fell 20% in April to 38.5 million metric tons compared to a year earlier, hitting their lowest level since July 2022, according to customs data released on Saturday.

That was April. They cut even more drastically since then. I hope this helps you understand.

Honestly, Massie might of been the cheapest bought off politician in history. He seems to have been entirely misled by online engagement(which costs $100s of dollars?) to self immolate and interfere with his own party.

iirc the numbers are actually low enough that when a list came out of the average "donation" the idea of a joke-not-quite-a-joke of "what if Null threw the donation money into just buying some congressman"

I don't go by appearances anymore. Bay Area is full of retards who wear flannels and have big beards, yet couldn't change a tyre if you pointed a gun to their heads.

he ran a ton of radio ads, one month his big ad buy was "you know that ed guy, he's a piece of crap, he's woke eddie, he's a coward" next month was "me and trump aren't that far apart, but the ed guy hates trump"
 
JayseeDenton powiedział(a):
The initial surge was enhanced by people trying to buy on the upswing and sell even higher. In a raw supply/demand sense hormuz closing was never going to cause a 50% increase because it's only 20% of the world's oil, and more than that it's not like 0% of the oil is getting out it's just taking less effecient routes.

But what would have been a ~10% increase made wall street whores and robin hood spergs become erect and all buy with the intention of selling even higher based on the assumption that everybody else was also going to buy to sell higher which would make it all go higher... same concept that made the gamestop stock shoot up even though nobody actually valued gamestop.

Then the bubble popped and it cooled down.

Too bad we didn’t see more traders jump from buildings when it popped. That always makes the day a little better.

That explains where most of his budget went. What a waste. People aren't blind when you're lying to their faces.
