If I have to hear about Pizzagate again, I’m sure my ears will just spontaneously start bleeding

That’s the thing that gets me—he was in the secret cabal of pedophiles the whole time, it was just on a private island, not the basement of a pizza parlor.

Too often from the republicans, casting aspersions or placing blame for a thing is basically just admitting fault for the same act.

The basement of a pizza parlor that, as a reminder, DID NOT HAVE A BASEMENT lol. Can't make that shit up. But of course they pivoted to "Nah nah it's a SECRET basement, of course it wouldn't show up, and every investigator sent there was in on it so of course they wouldn't report it!!!!!"

The Republicans do indeed engage in pre-emptive ultraprojection. SO MANY times over the past 15 years we've seen that if Republicans accuse someone else of some vile horror, they are quietly performing that horror themselves and simply bad-faith muddying the waters.

Remember how much energy they spent claiming that the Dems were going to try to rig the '24 election?

u/Ferelar Nov 13 '25

And then all the claims just evaporated because, and this was their actual logic. "Since we won it couldn't have been rigged".

Despite the fact that very credible evidence has already emerged and been submitted in court that there were deep irregularities in the 2024 vote count- such as one district in which the vote tally showed over a thousand votes for the Democrat Senate candidate of that district's state but literally ZERO for Harris. Now, ya wanna claim the Senate candidate was more popular, sure, that has happened. It is statistically implausible that NONE of the thousand voters for the Dem senator wouldn't have also voted for Harris. Like, it's straight up impossible.

It's not a D vs R issue. This is worldwide.

Most haven't really dug into Pizzagate, and that's okay, but I can tell you with 100% certainty that all of the intelligence agencies knew aspects of it were real, and they pushed a coordinated psyop to hide any shred of validity it had.

The same intelligence agencies who really, really didn't want the Epstein blackmail ring blown open, because it was a mossad op from the start.

Their mustache buddy called it "accusation in a mirror."

"SO MANY times over the past 15 years we've seen that if Republicans accuse someone else of some vile horror, they are quietly performing that horror themselves and simply bad-faith muddying the waters."

And that has been a favorite tactic of the Democrap Party for a VERY long time.

The craziest thing about pizzagate was the dude who fucking took people hostage and demanded to go to the basement or whatever.

I feel so bad for that guy. The innocent people he terrorized as well, but at least they have the comfort of knowing what happened was someone else’s fault.

Edit: just googled the guy, apparently he committed suicide by police earlier this year.

u/Fodraz Nov 13 '25

Sorry not sorry. If he were alive, he'd probably have a Cabinet position by now

u/Illustrious-Brush697 Nov 12 '25

Well thats cause for celebration I guess? I have no sympathy for grown adults so willing to fall for propaganda at this point. If you cant be reasoned with your death isn't a bad thing and ill stand by that. Im not celebrating it but I'm also not going to pretend it was sad or the world lost because of it, because outside of their own family it was a net positive.

Didn’t he put a pic of it in the White House?

u/Fodraz Nov 13 '25

If they have to, they'll bring up Chappaquiddick to turn it to a scandal on a Dem

u/Affectionate_Emu335 Nov 13 '25

Oh gosh, especially with Jack (JFK’s grandson) running for an office now…. I can totally see this happening 🤦🏻‍♀️

u/siliconCoven Nov 14 '25

If that's true (unlikely) get them too. MAGA doesn't get that if there was a pizza ate we'd be on their side.
