I have no idea why it's John Kerry specifically, but a group of pissed-off wreckers mad about Discord drama keep making sockpuppet accounts and spamming the site with posts and comments about John Kerry.
If you're serious then you missed out on one of the blandest dems of the early 2000s. Lucky you
Its ok, if you were born from 1980-now, then you really haven't missed anything but an accelerating descent into insanity. Though from what I hear, the zoomers just get that faster lol
2000-2006 politics in both parties was some scary open christian white nationalist shit. Which is why the collective erasure of Bush's presidency from the discourse is yet another brutal disappointment in a long line of disappointments in the ability of anyone on even the mild left to bring back reality. And without it, it seems no one can draw the timeline from the dawn of the millennium to today's rising fascism and Trump, obviously. But hey, I'm a :tank: , so its not like its surprising to me 🤷♂️
Failed presidential candidate and former
war criminalsecretary of state
Fair enough. Left wing infighting gossip is a guilty pleasure
John Kerry is a Vietnam veteran who served as a lieutenant, commanded a swift boat, and was awarded a silver star, a bronze star, and three purple hearts over the course of his service. He later became outspoken in his opposition to the war, publicly threw his medals over a fence around the Capitol Building in an anti-war demonstration, and was a major spokesperson for the Vietnam Veterans Against The War organization. He later became a US Senator for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
In 2004, he was the Democratic party candidate for President of the United States, opposite George W. Bush, who was up for reelection. During the campaign, he was attacked for his military record, as allegations, made by the organization Swift Boat Veterans For Truth, that his purple hearts were improperly won became a major fixture of the news cycle. These allegations were completely unsubstantiated and easily refuted, and the term "swiftboating" was coined to describe false political attacks. Kerry narrowly lost the election.
In 2013, he was appointed Secretary of State under President Barack Obama, succeeding Hillary Clinton. His tenure is notable for the negotiation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, a treaty with the Islamic Republic of Iran that was designed to limit and reduce the amount of enriched uranium held by them. He retired at the end of the Obama administration.
John Kerry is the one true president.
John Kerry is the only meme that has existed, currently exists, and will ever exist in the history of Chapo.
I remember where I was when I first learned that site has launched. I felt that a gap in my heart had been fulfilled, a deep longing for good posting had been completed once and for all. I felt like I had witnessed the birth of God. I gazed at his elegant neoliberal beauty, wondered at his grotesque, capitalist horror, and marveled at his deep, apocalyptic chin. And as I read this magnificent presidential candidate, I understood one thing:
I can make memes out of this.
Forget the pig poop balls, the deadly fetishes, the AOC feet pics, the bunny cop, and Rebr0. Forget Shorks, pinging chuds into submission until they posted hog, Joshua’s grift, and China struggle sessions. No, When John Forbes Kerry is the ultimate culmination of posting because of one reason:
I can make memes out of this.
And so I did. I flooded main with my clever, witty, and original funny captions and images, talking about how joHn KERrY and we were all going to vote and become fREE. Each new meme, posted an average of every 6 minutes, added something new and unique to the conversation, something hilariously funny and topical and not at all rather stale and trite. I saw the heartbreaking story told within its campaign, the deep detail about the slow death of the democratic party, and the frighteningly complex way the GOP gerrymandered, and I ignored it all, distracted by one thought alone:
I can make memes out of this.
All glory to John Kerry. All glory to chapo.chat. All glory to the memes.
