Republican Congressman Posts 'Attack On Titan' Intro Parody Where He, As Eren Jaeger, Kills Titan AOC And Joe Biden
"Any anime fans out there?" tweeted Republican congressman Paul Gosar last night, along with an Attack On Titan intro parody in which he and other Republicans, as Eren Jaeger and other Attack On Titan characters, kill titans with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Joe Biden's face on them.
The video raised numerous concerns among slack-jawed viewers. For example, what does the 62-year-old Republican Congressman actually know about Attack On Titan? Does him sharing a video in which he slices AOC's neck with Ultrahard Steel swords constitute a security threat, considering a horde of angry conservatives recently stormed the Capitol, perhaps with the attempt to harm the New York congresswoman? What, in general, is even going on anymore?
Happy Monday in America, where @GOPLeader McCarthy’s colleague just posted a video of himself swinging two swords at President Biden. These blood thirsty losers are more comfortable with violence than voting. Keep exposing them. https://t.co/nlmEW9EHB4 pic.twitter.com/5BI895zvLG

There is a lot to unpack from a Republican Rep editing the Attack on Titan OP where ICE is framed as the Military corps and immigrants are Titans while implying they are going to murder Joe Biden. https://t.co/sAaKix9Tbu

Prior to posting anime cringe, Gosar was best known for offering blanket pardons to the Capitol rioters (which he did not have the power to grant), being vehemently and publically despised by his family, and for allegedly "cozying up" to white nationalists such as Nick Fuentes.

[Republican makes a dumb cartoon]

Alex Reynard
If you dish it out, then shut the fuck up and take it when it's your turn, that's all I'm saying.
furiousfran
Ok, show me a member of Congress who did that.
Alex Reynard
Does Pelosi saying "the enemies of the state are at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue" count? Kamala Harris and Maxine Waters explicitly encouraging violence in the streets? I mean, I know direct incitement to physically harass political opponents isn't a CARTOON, but it's still a bit besmirching to the decorum, I'd think.

I guess the lesson GOP reps took away from the left with some of it's terrible animu memes is, "me too, pls".

Nah, that's far to unrealistic and implausible to be considered an anime

It's funny cause the titans turned out to be the good guys the whole time.

This is basically the Trump Kingsman edit all over again, and like that, the video itself is idiotic, but the people taking it seriously as some kind of violent threat are more-so.
Alex Reynard
[point directly at] AGREEMENT.

…didn't Trump create his own social media site so people like this can post their cringe right-wing shit or did it get completely overrun by hackers or something.
Not saying lefties don't post shit as well, but at least just about every politician to the left of republicans tries to keep a semblance of professionalism when online…
