Hoaxes are suddenly a big deal. Just this one tho.
Um, the President was ranting and retweeting it, so this one is kind of pertinent.
Just like clock boy

Trump is inviting the “Baby eating woman” to the White House?

And da squad along with most of the Dem candidates have all run with - just off the top of my head -

Covington
Smollet
Erica Thomas and the "go back where you came from"
The dread lock girl from like a week ago.
I can't even count how many hijabs were supposedly ripped off someones head.

If you want to throw Kavanaugh in there since there literally is zero evidence, I certainly won't argue with you.

But top concern should be that someone pranked AOC and she was laughed at for taking it seriously. Those other things I mentioned are harmless fun.

Twitter isn't real life but Dem candidates who can't draw more than a couple hundred in real life, and all but shape their policies around hashtags and whats hot on social media can't understand why they lost an election.

You do...
Hasn’t twitter been deemed official communication if it is a government official?

Cool story. I’m not the one flip flopping back and forth whether they are based on what political party the account owners are.

Again, what is even being discussed.

As far as I could tell, people were making fun of conservative "influencers" jumping on an obvious hoax. But it seems like the NP world is making fun of people for defending AOC, or something.

President Trump acknowledged and amplified a set-up, just like Obama did.
He helped make it newsworthy by acknowledging it.
And I'm pretty sure the 15 minutes the baby act was worth is up.

Step off the ledge buddy. Somebody pranked AOC last night, and we're talking about it (and laughing our butts of) for 15 minutes this morning.

Wat?? I just made reference how I'm sure a prank on AOC will get more play in here than the dozens of hoaxes designed to just get people to hate each other. Those are just brushed away. "But Trump commented (or rant and raved) about it!" Yeah, and I threw out the examples of every other time the Dem big wigs all run with fake stories, often times even well after they've been proven fake.

But as for AOC, she did take the person seriously and then (ranted and raved) about the right wing plant.

The only reason this is getting more play beyond me posting the tweet for shits and gigs is because you're making a big deal about it.

I think this is when the kids say "delete your account"

We're going to spend a little time laughing at this, and go on our way.
I'm sure AOC is pissed because it actually effects her; she tried to play nice with the person and instead she really needs to rewatch the McCain town hall answer. To the rest of us this a punchline. The amount of people that would even know what the heck we're talking about would be greatly reduced if the President didn't tweet about it too.

Well you said "this one is kind of pertinent" Which I disagreed based on the severity of the other claims. And even noting Trump being at a higher level of government than the rest.

One of the things we are seeing is the effect of decoupling Senate seats from the state legislature and giving it over to the people at large.

NP's posts make a lot more sense if you imagine them written in poop, on a wall.

How will our country ever get to be like Russia? It’s basically impossible for someone to assume power like that and hold it.
For now it is impossible for an individual to hold power indefinitely, but not for the political parties. Access to power is currently monopolized by both parties. As long as governing is a game to be "won" be either side, it's going to get worse before it gets better. Look at the freaking district maps. How the hell does that happen? They're entrenching themselves deeper and deeper. Mind you, they're not required at all. I get that we've always had them and that they've been around a long time. It's just a problem how the whole shebang is set up right now.

Some of you guys take this stuff waaaayyy too seriously if it actually affects your lives that you can’t read a message board anymore.

Or maybe they both realize that trying to have a discussion with some of you isn't worth the effort and they'd rather just not deal with it.
