Politicians should be retired at the age of 70. These old fucks are so out of touch, it would be comical if it wasn’t costing human lives every fucking day.

madcaesar,

This is literarily FAKE and morons on here are adding their comments without probably even reading / watching the fake news.

The title was enough for people to go off and spew their shit.

Absolutely ridiculous.

locuester,

How so? Why makes you say it’s fake?

IndustryStandard,

I hear “Go to China with your fake genocide” in the video. The video is in the article.

Is calling everything fake the new Zionist way to debunk things when it’s clearly on video?

They’ve already been trying to decry Palestinian images from the occupation’s crimes as AI-rendered; it doesn’t surprise me they’re trying it here too. The contradictions are intensifying in real time; what they do to their enemies is exactly what will come to us. Three-fold law, but for politics, lmao.

I fuckin love how all these settlers keep swarming in here like “IT’S A FAKE VIDEO IT’S A FAKE VIDEO” when it’s CODEPINK who took the video in the first place back in October. And then, when pushed back on, said settlers go straight crickets for the rest of the thread! Mfs lied for 50 years about everything about the democrat party, lied about what America is full stop; and expect to be taken seriously now? Without evidence, your allegations aren’t worth the paper I wipe my ass with in the morning, but you think I’m just gonna take it on faith that some settler just says it’s fake on some “trust me bro” shit.

Mfs really want us to believe it’s deepfake or something-- and I said this would happen! I know I’ve said “the next time a democrat says some fuckshit, liberal invertebrates will swarm out from under their rocks and logs to desperately try to convince us it’s a deepfake now that that’s a valid excuse”. Stay proving me right.

PotatoesFall,

This is so misleading. The headline plus thumbnail makes it look like she got up on a stage and said that , but the article just embeds a shoddy phone video where you can barely understand her.

I’m not defending Pelosi but can we at least have some journalistic standards? This isn’t worldnews, and it’s barely USA news.

“I’m not defending Pelosi but” [proceeds to try and defend Pelosi bc “shoddy phone video”]. Journalistic standards in America are dead. There are none. The only standard is “whatever lets these corrupt boomer ghouls commit more war”, so my ‘standard’ is whatever puts these people’s true faces in the public discourse. I’m not about to discard CODEPINK’s word just because a bunch of bougies have issues with cell phone videos.

BlackNo1,

can you die already you old cunt

MeaanBeaan,

100% against the genocide in Palestine and think our representatives should be doing everything they can to stop supporting it but this video is clearly edited. Pelosi’s mouth is moving basically the whole video yet you can hear absolutely nothing from her except the very end when she gets into the suv. You can very faintly hear the “go back to China” line. However if you look at her mouth it’s not matching up with it at all. Someone clearly dubbed audio over video to make it sound like something it wasn’t.

    What do you mean? They literally show the video.

    johannesvanderwhales,

    So literally fake news is OK on here?

    zephyreks,

    Please support your claim that this news is fake.

    DdCno1,

    You must be new here.

    brain_in_a_box,

    So is the video CGI? Actors? How is this fake?

    Why do you think this is fake news when anyone can see the video for themselves?

    The Hill | Rising: Go back to China’: Nancy Pelosi shames ceasefire protestors, suggests they’re foreign assets

    ahal,

    Videos are about as reliable as pictures these days. Especially if they feature a very public person.

    frauddogg,
    @frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml avatar

    And there it is, the “it’s a deepfake!!!1!” defense. Predictable as the seasons.

    OurToothbrush,

    Can you cite it being fake news?

    acceptable_pumpkin,

    She needs to be sitting in a rocking chair somewhere knitting sweaters, not involved in any form of government beyond a local bingo committee. It’s a disgrace to have her in politics.

    DigitalTraveler42,

    The video is fake and she said “go back to China where you are headquartered” to the Code Pink people, whom are in fact funded by China and have a history of echoing China’s stances and propaganda.

    Xitter moderation even called out the fake on the Twitter post of the fake video.

    Dreamer,

    I don’t think this post should have been removed. I wanted to see arguments and rebuttals being made.

    Omega_Haxors,

    You can still see it in the modlog, but generally it’s not a good idea to roll in the mud. Your mental health is worth far more than that.

    brain_in_a_box,

    What do you mean the video is fake? Is it CGI? Actors?

    Based anti-imperalist, class traitor Neville Roy Singham is based.

    I remember that garbage NYT hit piece from last year. Global North corporate media gotta push the new cold war. Before that article it was secret Chinese police stations in NYC, and before that it was Chinese spy balloons. Burgerlanders will believe anything.

    nekandro,

    Your claim is that China is supporting… A grassroots feminist movement? Abortion? Palestine?

    The horror.

    zephyreks,

    We really need to vote her out this round, San Francisco deserves better than this

    @PanArab@lemmy.ml avatar

    I guess liberals cannot be upset that people against the genocide didn’t vote for them. They are all Chinese according to them.

    This happened more than five minutes ago so she forgot. Consequences of having an entire government filled with dementia ridden corpses. What can you do?🤷‍♀️

    Squizzy,

    How do these guys fuck up sitters every day. I’m not a yank but you fucks export all your rhetoric and issues anyway so can you get your shit together please.

    This old bag of bones needs to fuck off, get out and vote for Christ’s sake.

    We need to pass a constitutional amendment that sets the maximum age to hold public office (including judges) to 67 years old. You can do whatever you want past 67, but you can’t hold public office.

    Read the room, Nancy!

    pearsaltchocolatebar,

    Term limits too

    Zoboomafoo,

    If you like having novices in government, sure

    regul,

    I’d rather have a novice who has a chance of supporting something good than an old hand using their experience to enact genocide.

    frauddogg,
    @frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml avatar

    Beats having the same imperialist ghouls for entire generations. ‘Experience’ means jack-shit when the aim of ‘career politicians’ is to stay on the gravy train by any means necessary.

    c0mbatbag3l,
    @c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

    What’s the other option? Let them stay for life?

    The issue isn’t lack of experience, it’s that never having to worry about losing the job makes them useless. Watch how fast they get shit done that directly affects them, it was never about lack of ability, the current politicians are just intentionally useless because they all benefit from the status remaining quo.

    Zoboomafoo,

    Just a maximum age is plenty

    DdCno1,

    I think this thread and the lack of people both fundamentally misunderstanding and failing to fact check the article indicates that young people can be plenty stupid.

    c0mbatbag3l,
    @c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

    The fuck it is, if 8 years is enough for the president it’s enough for Congress, Senators, and the SC Justices.

    If we can pass down the office of president every 8 years there’s no reason we can’t do the same elsewhere, does it take a decade to learn how to vote or something? Are we lacking in judges?

    There are other levels of office, there isn’t going to be a shortage of experience just because we require term limits. Even if there was I’d prefer an inexperienced person than someone who sits on their hands all day and just votes according to their oligarchical masters whims.

    Zoboomafoo, (edited )

    brookings.edu/…/five-reasons-to-oppose-congressio…

    This article has a pretty good explanation of why term limits causes more problems than it solves.
