    Picking an MMO that has been around since Dubya's second term

    They're really scrapping the bottom of the barrel. At least pick L*ague or something.

    Trump is supposedly a great threat to democracy…and look at how little the Dems are taking this seriously. Might as well make a speech with family guy funny moments in the background.

    They got their ass handed to them in 2016 in the most humiliating way, and they still think they can do victory laps before going into the endzone in the year of our lord 2024.

    It's fitting because the current WoW expansion's first tier is about deposing an evil power hungry warmonger queen (Harris) after she overthrew the previous queen and left her a braindead but still living husk (Biden).

    That's right folks, one of the campaign managers for Harris is still Ridin' With Biden

      Probably because they live under a delusion that, because they are a politician, they are wise and intelligent and/or in touch with the common people.

    Playing WoW with a political speech playing in the background/split screen is the most serial killer coded shit you could possibly imagine.

    Who is this for?

        It's bonkers to me though. Like are there any voters that fit this tiny demographic who aren't going to vote for Kamala, that would suddenly switch to voting for her, from this?

        Like what base of voters who were discouraged, are going to be energized by this?

        Like how many?

        And then compare that to how many they are discouraging with their embrace of Dick Cheney and committing a genocide.

        Like this doesn't add up. At all, and I'm not even charging millions for this advice.

        Like you could make a case that this gets The Young People activated, but there are other ways that have bigger impact and could accomplish the same thing, more effectively, for less money

          Harris has the political instincts of a brunch liberal. They don't have to have stronger instincts because they land somewhere anyway. good-morning

            You make a good point. She dropped out of the primary in 2016 before she got her ass handed to her in her home state, and she is now the presidential nominee in 2020 without having a single voter vote for her so really why would she think this wouldn't work

    What a timely and cutting edge cool and hip game to be playing, totally not burdened with "Cosby Room" and breastmilk stealing brofuckery in the corporate offices or Bobby Kotick skullduggery behind the scenes! fellow-kids
