how the fuck did this get so much funding lol

 

I genuinely did a spit take at the end.

What an absolute clown.

 

This seems bad

 

Idk I know plenty of millennial parents that put screens in front of their kids faces. But I do think the guy in the video doesn’t realize he’s also talking about the entire back half
of GenZ, not just Gen Alpha. Like the youngest GenZ kids right now are 11/12 years old, they very much did grow up on screens haha. I have the kids now that are literally so addicted to their phones that they can’t do anything else. And those are GenX parents, not millennial.

I have no interactions with Alpha kids outside of my own family and in-laws. Some of them were screen time since toddler babies and some weren’t. I do hear horror stories from the elementary school teachers in my district/state though. So many of them talking about just how impossible the kids are, and it seems to be the same complaints whether it’s a 25-30 year vet or a fresh out of college/grad school/first few years teaching. But they mostly tie it back to pre/post covid

 

very cool

 

The hierarchy of US politics is about to change.

 

He will win 48 states

 

And then he’ll be coming for Hawaii and Alaska too in the squared circle. Live on pay per view!

 

Pepsi you’ve made a mistake

 

I will vote for him only on the condition that after he wins he has to come out on stage and do this:



Complete with arm raise of course

 

Lmao thank u

 

Idiocracy was a documentary

 

Consultants in 1993 after Crystal Pepsi came out

 

im just mad we’ll never get President Ric Flair

 

I guess he would fit right in with the other sex criminals we’ve had in office

 

This is a good one

 

LBJ was whipping it out in the White House, why not the Nature Boy

 

For much of the same reasons actually

 

The Rock/John Krasinski CIA assets team

 

We already know who his best running mate would be...The Rock n Sock Connection!


But in all seriousness, I'm convinced The Rock/Stone Cold Steve Austin running as a ticket, in complete kayfabe character, could easily win the election regardless of their policy stances. Like, ideocracy isn't really that far fetched as victor said lol. the fact that they're younger than any candidate running right now that matters, and you have a shitton if 30-50 year olds just looking to feel something good about the world who would get high everyday on nostalgia if they could...Massive turnout numbers.

Maybe I'm being hyperbolic...but yeah I do think well liked celebs could win elections way easier than we probably assumed they could 20 years ago. Reagan doing it was a big deal but he had already been involved in politics for years before that.

 

David even when WWF was its hottest I don’t think they were getting the best brands wanting to be associated with them, so idk about all that

 

Well tbf Johnson is way bigger than the WWF now. But yeah he's fondly remembered by a lot of people my age and up haha

 

There's something creepy about the Rock I can't quite put my finger on. There's something off about his public persona

 

He’s all about His Brand

 

I feel like he'd be too woke for like half the country at this point haha, Matthew McConaughey will be the vaguely Republican celebrity president
