Yeah okay but it still lands. It still isn’t laughed about by people at large, if I go by the thread.

Posting trolling to own the libs over consumerist bullshit is still decidedly american imo. You get the same thing about pig meat or whatever elsewhere as this extant of islamophobia but I think straight up complaining about no sauce is pretty unique to the USA

When there is legitimately so, so much to crush Ted Cruz with, it’s a bad look to be humorless and take a joke seriously. And Biden, too. He’s already deported more people than Trump did in his whole term.

I do not get this point. The excuse of $thing being a joke does not make it immune to criticism.

I mean following this idea, sure, it is a joke, I’m not contesting that and I was a big dumb moron for falling for it. But like, what is the joke? *Why * is this a joke?

It’s an exaggeration? Humor involves the unexpected. Of all the things anyone can legitimately criticize Biden for, lack of sauce at Chick-fil-a is obviously not one of them. You’d expect him to criticize the budget, or the executive agencies, or anything else.

There’s plenty to bash Cruz with. He’s a horrible human being. Why take a troll seriously? It’s what trolls are hoping for. That you won’t get it, you’ll fall for it, and look foolish taking it seriously.
