She literally had to change her response the next time it happened because she (probably some advisor) realized it was terrible but the hive literally wants us to remember it because they think it ruled lmao
The first time she said it to Mike Pence it was a pretty good line. When she said it at Detroit airport it was not good (and the cheer in response was even worse), but I'll at least say I'm not convinced she knew what the protesters were saying.
If the t-shirt and picture predate the Detroit rally, I think it's completely reasonable to say that yes, at the time "I'm speaking" was a pretty good line.
The libs love that line, because it is a polite way of saying "Shut up because I don't have a response to you that doesn't make me look like the bad guy."
It's funny because the original version of that image represented a (momentary) belief that America would be able to turn away from nearly a decade of warmongering and bloodshed in the Middle East and now it has been turned into "fuck you we'll genocide whomever we want"
Yeah this really doesn't surprise me. Stephen King has always been a twat. He's supported problematic people in the past including JK Rowling who he constantly flip flops on.
If "I'm speaking" is supposed to be a girlboss thing idk it seems kind of ironically weak. Makes me think of the episode of kitchen nightmares i watched recently where the owner kept going "let me finish" over and over again
Like if you're speaking and people give a shit, they already know, and otherwise you're just vocalizing that you're being ignored
For context, fentanyl contamination that @Beetle_O_Rourke@hexbear.net is talking about is when a user (Stephen King, in this case) takes an opiate they don't think is fent (i.e. heroin or something) and it turns out to be fent, which is (an?) orders of magnitude more potent.
The shit cops whine about that the official podcast covered is entirely different. The former kills, the latter is some havana syndrome shit.
Mark Hamill, Stephen King. I love these guys with all my heart but damn if lib brain rot ain't a thing... It's fear and the inability to believe another world is possible
