As a non-American I have trouble understanding the conservative ability to stoop so intellectually low as to clap like a seal at the use of 9/11 as a political prop by Fox staging the appearance of the Left doing something improper on 9/11. It's so deeply disappointing that the right wing down there has been so propagandized and after all this time remains trapped in such shallow thought.
Yeah, Mamdani smiled. However, our "most patriotic President ever" who basically only got to be President because of a post 9/11 world skipped the 25th anniversary because he wasn't allowed to go up and give a speech. That says a whole lot more than anything else.
Sorry what's the problem? The fat pedo went to Ireland to watch golf I ate pizza topped with kebab and dipped it chilli sauce all these two humans did was say hi.
Oh lord, two people smiled at eachother upon seeing eachother at some event for something that happened 25 fucking years ago and killed less people than Covid. Fuck all the way off Faux News. Spend time on the sleeping toddler instead. JFC.
They have photos of all.the republicans doing the same thing. But also... didn't they claim Erikkka Kirk is a "christian." "They mourn differently and sometimes celebrate." As she's doing a WWE style entrance with fireworks..... so using their own stupid logic they should support this more.
Did you notice the little shoulder rub? It was warm and supportive. Two New Yorkers who were children when 9/11 happened and grew up in the aftermath of a traumatic event
I suspect it has more to do with AOC being a woman and Mamdani being a man. They seem unfamiliar with the idea that men and women can interact without needing to find a room and go at it like rabbits. Or in republicans case: men and children...
Ah, the MAGA morons trying to say they were laughing it up during a 9/11 memorial thing? Always fake news from the crowd who cries about fake news all the time.
If your personal and political convictions are dependent on little pre school mentalities like that you should not be declared mentally unfit to be a part of society anyways (actual mental disabilities not included obviously)
Refuse to attend the one you can't make about you, sleep through the parts that aren't about you then give a speech all about how wonderful you are, three lessons total they should have learned obviously.
I was actually awake the bigliest of all, nobody was more bigly awake than me. Next question. Not you you're the worst, someone else (despicable how bad you are, so unfair, you should be fired, if it was me I would fire you, you're fired).
Saw this out in the wild.... "he works 24/7 for the country! You don't!" I hate this shit so much. It's almost like they switched out our water supply with alcohol.
Yeah, I noticed on /r/conservative a few days ago that this was the top post.
Credit where it's due, the top comment pointed out that this was pretty weak criticism. A few below that mentioned Erika Kirk's behavior at her husband's funeral being much the same.
no, because that normalizes what the rightwing is saying now as opposed to back then. rightwing grifters said then that discussing terrorism in a tan suit is unprofessional. rightwing grifters now are saying that AOC and Mamdani don't take a national tragedy seriously, among other more ridiculous claims of them being terrorists celebrating America's downfall. it is several steps up in their hateful rhetoric from the tan suit, and nobody is punishing them for it.
Its just nuts. Media goes crazy over the stupidest things while ... gestures around. I wish theyd ignore the stupid shit and turn every opportunity back to things that do matter.
It's not a nothing burger, the brown people are clearly up to something, like destroying our country. That's their secret smile and hug. It's code for kill all whites.
That's all it is. Create a false outrage and flood the internet comment sections with your bots while never showing a single clip of trump looking like he's having a stroke and falling asleep at the 9/11 ceremony at the Pentagon. Plus it's revenge for him being uninvited to New York
Yeah, they are running this, while ignoring all the laughing and joking Vance and others were doing at their memorial. They've got nothing to actually use to stir shit up with and this is the best they can do.
Also, its been 25 fucking years. It's not a god damn funeral or something that happened last week. Get over it people.
In the Conservative world, smiling is like Handholding in meme culture. Two friends will look each other in the eyes, give a nod, and if they're both guys, a quick but firm handshake.
But I might've been paraphrasing American Dad or King of the Hill.
Given the context, I'm fairly certain it's not anything about a relationship, but rather Faux News lying through their teeth again and reporting "Mamdani and AOC all smiles at 9/11 remembrance event"
I have also seen a picture of Vance, Giuliani and others doing exactly the same thing, too. Also, elTrumpo nodding off at his appearance at the Pentagon during a service.

It wasn’t the same, and holy crap those ratfucker arcons are vile.
One was “hello friend” and the other was “my husband just died and its the best fucking day of my life”

“Much the same”!
Fair play for a shift in conservative stance on this, maybe. But similarity?

And butthurt because he wasn't allowed to give a speech at the NY one. Which is why he didn't attend it and opted for a nap at the Pentagon instead.

Why would I care about their relationship?

Because this is politics. Relationships show in what circles they spin in. Ex trump - epstein.

The president raped a child so they need to keep inventing nothing burgers so we talk about this instead of Donald Trump raping a child.
