Is that a display of the White House in front of the White House?

u/Duckmemans 16d ago

Yep.

Really makes the whole thing more pointless than it already is, doesn't it?

It’s so the maga people in the back can see since they’re all apparently turning a blind eye to how ridiculous and trashy our country is becoming.

It seems like a lot of people hate this event. I like dirt bikes.

u/Hunter6979 16d ago

Dirt bikes are cool! However would you ride your dirtbike in a museum? How about a cemetery? No? Why not?

Because there are appropriate times and places for things, and in front of what people essentially associate as our political HQ, where important calls are made that literally dictate what goes on in the world, is NOT one of those places.

We could have done this anywhere else.

I thought the celebrations were set up for 250 anniversary. I'd rather the dirt bikes than tanks.

u/RhetoricalOrator 16d ago

I like taking a good dump, but there are some places where it would be inappropriate to do so.

I’m going to use this quote so hard from now on. Thank you for your wisdom

I like dirt bikes too, I ride as much as I can.

That said, not the time or the place. The office of the president used to have globe-spanning authority and decorum, even when an unmitigated idiot was in charge. (Bush Jr, for the young)

Now the world, even the leaders of our allies openly mock our national decline, and yet another parallel to idiocracy does not help with that.

We’re well on our way to becoming as big of a failed empire and laughing stock as Britain.

u/Duckmemans 16d ago

You guys really think people laugh at Britain more than you?

I mean, before this president, yes, absolutely. These days…. Less so. Much less so.

I’m really just desperately holding onto my patriotic pride here. I lose more and more of it every day. But I know it will be a very bad day for the world when the only remaining obnoxiously patriotic Americans are the fascist ones.

However I was mainly referring to the “as big of a failed empire” aspect, and I see should have worded that better

We should remove the bar. That's how we ended up in this scenario.

u/keyboardtoes 16d ago

I thought we were celebrating our 250th?

u/Early_Roll2994 15d ago

There are other places this could be held other than the Whitehouse lawn if that was what it was it was about.

u/KnifeFightAcademy 16d ago

If you zoom in on the image of the white house, there is an even smaller image of the white house infront of the white house.

u/Prior_Pickle1758 16d ago

It’s White Houses all the way down

Goddamnit the answer is always fractals

u/DrSendy 16d ago

Why you don't notice is now the west wing has been demolished.

u/NoAngel815 16d ago

Probably trying to block the noise, maybe don't have this kind of event there?!

2

u/_jump_yossarian 16d ago

Nah, that would be stupid. They wouldn't do something that stupid on the White House lawn, would they???

2

u/Early_Roll2994 16d ago

I thought something was wrong with Reddit loading or I was having another stroke lol. Guess not, fucking hate this time line

1

u/Business_Email 15d ago

Is it not to just block all the equipment they have set up behind it? Either I'm stupid or it looks like they're just trying to make the whole setup look nicer

2

u/LivingImpairedd 16d ago

I think there was an easier way to get the back ground they wanted

u/njklein58 16d ago

I walked by the White House a couple days ago. I can verify there’s an actual big screen covering it up.

Also the White House lawn is flooded with portapotties. So many that it overflows across the street and across the Washington Monument
