Prankster Says 'Let's Go Brandon' To Joe Biden, Later Claims He's Being Harassed

Bc the whole meme is "having an euphemism for an insult", which is something preschoolers do.

There's nothing beyond "ha ha I didn't say the f-word so you can't get mad, mom!"

Remember that bit from friends where Ross and Monica have this hand gesture which they used to insult each other without their parents noticing, and the whole joke is how insanely childish it is, especially now as they are adults and can just insult each other normally?

BOI you incels will go to the absolute wildest to justify being spineless cowards, huh?…

The point of "Let's Go Brandon" isn't necessarily a middle finger at Biden but rather the media who spent the last 4 years screaming up and down the street about the accountability of power going out of the way to lick the DNC's ass at every opportunity no matter how small or petulant it seems. It's basically saying, "We know you're the DNC's lapdog and there's no way you can tell us otherwise after this" and that's the beauty of it, you can sling insults at them all day long but the moment you question their squeaky clean image they recoil.

Biden is too much of a husk to be mad at, it's the hypocritical peons around him that are completely bloody intolerable.

"There is no code involved because that requires people to not understand what they are saying."
That's not necessarily how this sort of thing works. This is a euphemism, not a dog whistle. If you say you need to "go powder your nose," it's with the full expectation of people grasping you're going to the bathroom. But it's less likely to earn you social censure even if its meaning is not actually any different or less clearly understood than "I'm gonna go drop a big fat deuce." It's the same thing here. If someone sticks a "Let's go Brandon" sign in their yard, it's a lot less likely they'd get asked to take it down than if they wrote "Fuck Joe Biden" instead. They get the internal thrill of taking a shot at Biden but with less chance of social consequences. I'm sure there are some cases where it's being used primarily to mock media lapdogs, which I do get, but it's definitely being used a lot as a way to smuggle an "obscene" sentiment into circumstances where it would otherwise face reprimand. Anyone's welcome to think of that what they will, but to me personally (as if anyone asked) it comes across as risibly timid. "I wanna say naughty words but I don't wanna get in twoouuuuble."

I really don't think they are being that clever. Anyone who understands how television news works knows that the outlet was just trying to spare itself from the wrath of the FCC. (There was an interview with Russel Crowe where the interviewer freaked out when Crowe said "fuck" without thinking.) Frankly, I often forget that "Let's go, Brandon" is even a thing, and those who condemn it are pathetic. It's a case of "don't feed the trolls."

those are some pretty smart children if they're able to learn the f word from "let's go brandon" lol

they could simply look up the phrase on know your meme dot com

I'd think the same way if it didn't actually work.

I mean… yes, the sound waves he emitted did indeed reach the recipient's ears and were processed as language, I guess? Is that the threshold for "work"?

If he'd said "fuck you joe biden" we would have missed out on the euphoric catharcism of Joe Biden saying "I agree, lets go Brandon" thats almost enough to make this shit stain of a term worth it.

man who doesn't support biden is a trump supporter
