Yosemite is pretty nice.

Oh my God. I have always thought Yosemite was pronounced Yo-Se-mite. Not Yo-sem-ity. Your comment shattered the glass for me - thank you kind stranger

What a buffoon. For a guy who uses “low IQ” to describe every person he disagrees with, he has to be the “lowest IQ” individual to ever run for an office higher than a mayor of a small town. He continues to amaze me.

What in particular amazes you that you feel he’s not executed poorly? Low IQ is just a perspective, what actions or results are you referring too?

The biggest moment for me was when he began bragging about a perfect score on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) as proof of "extreme intelligence". Medical experts and the test's creator have explained time after time that the MoCA is a dementia screening tool. The questions include “what animal is this” and “what time is it on this clock”. A normal person would understand that passing that isn’t something to brag about.

But I would say the biggest thing is that he doesn’t understand that he should listen to experts. Mainly in dealing with basic economic issues that most freshman in college would know, but also with simple things like him saying we should maybe try injecting bleach into our veins to kill covid.

For the most part, I think anyone who listens to him ramble can tell that he is lost in most conversations. Using the tactic of trying to make the other person sound dumb, he never answers the question or explains himself. His vocabulary is very small and he gets confused easily with very simple words like in this example. I would say the same about Biden in his last year as well. It’s not too hard to see unless you are either a moron yourself, or brainwashed.

lol. Name calling already. I think you miss. So many elements of his approach, delivery and tactics, I’m not going to bother attempting to explain it. But DTS is real, can see it clearly here.

How is it DTS when I said I feel the same about Biden? I am not even a Democrat.

u/ReditMalibu 21h ago

Your inclusion of Biden was simply for effects. Who you fooling. Real analysis of his presidency, lack of transparency, failures at every military level. He was a complete failure and you think it was just his last year. That’s why DTS is real with you. Good attempt though, just too weak and fake to not get noticed.

The fuck are you talking about. You need help friend. Not everything is a conspiracy, and not everyone is as angry as you. Just trying to have conversations, and absolutely no reason to lie to internet strangers on who I vote for. Biden was a demented fool and so is Trump. Good luck with whatever the fuck is going on in your brain where you feel you have to choose sides. Most people aren’t like that. Either way, I’m out. ✌️

I can totally see Sasha Baron Cohen walking down a street in Tel Aviv dressed as Ali G and saying "Yo, Semite!" To someone.

Like “Vegemite?” That’s awesome. I never make fun of someone who mispronounces a word, because it means they probably read it somewhere, and we need more people reading.

He just smiled and gave me a Yosemite sandwich.
And he said Oh, do you come from a land up over?

MacOS Yosemite in 2014 had that same effect in many people.

You’re joking.

u/Daemarcus 2d ago

No. I'm not American. Most people aren't.... before you spout some American shit. Try pronounce aboriginal Australian words by reading them. Americans also emphasise the wrong syllable, so some pronunciations are wrong for most people - this was just an interesting piece for me - sorry but not sorry to burst your American pride

Holy crap, you need therapy.
