“I think he was very smooth with everything that he said,” Chase Johnson from Graham, North Carolina, told *The Independent*. “Actually one of the better debates we’ve had in the long time, probably the most civil debate since Obama and Romney.”
I don’t want any part of JD Vance’s imagined future. What a kook!

If I asked a Language Learning Model to write a speech sounding like it was a Trump voter that spends too much time in Twitter and listens to Joe Rogan this is exactly what it would write. Literally just greatest hits of the dumbest common 4chan and Twitter magachamber obsessions.

This is a DIRECT Alex Jones/infowars line. That’s what he says when he’s quoting “the globalists.” Vance is truly preaching to the choir with this one.

I know we laugh about it, but to the millions of Americans already spun up by the propaganda of the right, this just adds fuel to an everlasting flame of hatred for their political enemies. The right is angry and everyday are told things to grow that anger. Win or lose, that anger is ultimately going to turn to action. We’ve seen it at an individual level far too often. January 6 gave us a preview of what mass-action might look like.
We need to Make America Happy/Kind Again.

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.

Fact check: I don’t want to live in a pod, eat bugs, and own nothing and I don’t want that for you either. Not sure if I’m “they” though.

We already blame the subscription-based society America has become for owning nothing. None of that was a political decision, it’s just straight-up rampaging greed!

No one is allowed to use the ambiguous “They” when making a point anymore. If you want to be taken seriously then you need to make pointed remakes based on facts and if there’s a real group you have a grievance with you should be expected to actually know what that group is.

Hes talking about his old boss Peter? Peter Thiel and other billionaires are happy to buy up all the homes, raise the price of food, and make it impossible to own anything.

The people who want you to own nothing are more aligned with Vance’s side than anywhere else tbh.

Actually it’s for profit corporations that are *well underway* for turning literally everything we do into a rental/subscription.

When he says “own nothing” his idiot followers think “because we are communist” when it reality his backers want people to own nothing because they want to rent everything to people on a perpetual subscription.

I’m honestly starting to appreciate the transparency these people have. All you have to do is realize they’re actually talking about what THEY want for YOU and it’s very interesting stuff.
Literally about 90% of everything they say is projection, what they’re actually hoping to be able to do. Scary stuff. These people failed K-12 at K when they didn’t learn to share and play nice.
And the socks??? I just noticed them. They’re just having fun on a sinking ship at this point.

I wish conservatives had the introspection to look at this kind of campaigning and ask themselves why their people can’t run on real issues, and instead have to make up fake bullshit to run on instead.

Before Senator JD Vance took the stage at a town hall in Greensboro, North Carolina, attendees said he piqued their interest [because of the civility he showed toward](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/jd-vance-tim-walz-debate-polling-who-wins-b2622791.html) his Demoratic opponent for vice president, Governor Tim Walz, [during their sole debate](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/jd-vance-tim-walz-debate-weird-republicans-b2622890.html).
