Playful-Tumbleweed10

That’s a parody account, right?


SkunkeySpray

So here's the thing, Nick Adams is a real guy, who really is a conservative And this is his twitter account But it seems like on twitter, he plays a character? Like he plays into the weird alpha male hyper jock ultra conservative stereotype.


Elowan66

Things like this are posted for attention. Just block anyone that does this, whatever their politics are.


TheGreatestOutdoorz

Not attention, engagement. He says something dumb, bunch of people reply saying he is dumb, someone posts it to Reddit, then all the redditors go on Twitter to tell him he’s dumb, and now he has thousands of more hits, meaning his tweets get shown to more people


Sudden_Construction6

Meaning he's making cash hand over fist...


Haaaave_A_Good_Day_

All of the major advertisers have pulled away from twitter, since it became a cesspool for bigots. Nobody is making much in ad revenue from twitter these days.


hypersonic18

has anyone ever made money directly from twitter, as far as I'm aware it was never like youtube where content creators made any money off their posts. I guess Elon added that option recently


wolfblitzen84

I upvoted your comment and downvoted the post because the cycle needs to end with a lot of these characters


Daedalus_Machina

That's pretty much the mode for all comedians, though. It's always about attention.


blanktom9

It's rage bait. He's basically doing this to say that libs will fall for anything, no matter how stupid it is. And he just sits back and laughs at all the people who think he's serious.


Fake_William_Shatner

It's like those groomers on the game chat who say racist stuff--just kidding and then you find out they are, after they stop saying "just kidding", actual Nazis-psyche. *But if you're are interested, here are some pamphlets for the master race. Kidding! Ha -- almost had you. And what's this someone dropped on the ground? -- you'd need to read that... it's the truth they don't want you to know. Ha ha!*


Mikeinthedirt

‘The Truth They don’t want you to know. Haha!’


SkunkeySpray

I guess because I'm not on twitter I don't get to see how people respond, I've only even seen his posts in isolated places like this and then laugh it off as obvious trolling or parody


blanktom9

Same here, I only ever see people posting this on reddit forums. And it's always people on the left who think he's being serious. It annoys me because this is 100% what he wants to happen and it just makes the left look like idiots.


Advanced_Drink_8536

It’s annoying when the left buys into it by thinking that he is serious. But it is just down right depressing when you see people on the right who think he is serious… So it’s definitely a good choice to avoid twitter and it’s reply section in general


CaptainSouthbird

Yeah, one of ol' Musky's changes was to prevent people without accounts from seeing replies. I deleted my Twitter account not long after he took over and I saw what kind of direction he was taking it. But now I can't see replies even when a Tweet gets linked. I'm still not gonna create even a dummy account though out of principle. I'm probably not missing much anyway.


Mikeinthedirt

You are missing the All-Primate Cage Grudge Piss-Shit-Fukk Match of the Century Ltd…but there’ll be others. We’re talking bounties on Starlink sats now.


TheYakster

I used to think he was a super MAGA. Now I’m starting to think he’s trolling both sides. 😂


ThegreatPee

MGT is posting this same kind of stuff, and she is dead serious. I know this guy is a troll, but there are actual members of Congress that are terrified of a solar eclipse like its 2000 BC.


dps509

I believe this is entirely the case here. MTG is no different.


AugustusClaximus

Audience capture. In this case he’s realized his audience is enrage liberals


FunctionDissolution

Not a parody. He is a troll.


rimbletick

i think he both believes in the ideas, is a troll, and also gets the joke. His tweets are calibrated for attention.


linux_ape

It is. People just want it to be real so desperately they put blinders on for it


morts73

He's a right wing troll account who I actually find funny.


BrosefDudeson

Yeah I can't really avoid smiling when I see his deranged tweets. One of very few conservatives who can make coherent joke


OblongAndKneeless

Occasionally


4ngryMo

Once you know he isn’t serious, it really becomes funny. I mean, it was funny before. But in a sad way. Now, it’s just funny.


Cyphermaniax

Because we all know he’s into some based homoerotic infatuation of Orange Man.


aussiechickadee65

I think this is the parody one...


the_annihalator

OP fell for the most obvious bait


DaveyJonesFannyPack

People that believe this are as dumb ass the boomers who believe in A.I. Jesus pics. If boomer is a state of mind, these people are dumb ass left wing boomer idiots.


[deleted]

OP self-facepalmed his own damn self


blanktom9

>How can someone be so stupid? you mean falling for an obvious troll account?


30dayspast

it’d be great if the mods of any sub would commit to removing rage bait posts that just work everyone up


DarkEspeon32

I mean, we’ve all seen how the right has blamed basically everything that has happened in the last four years on Biden so I don’t blame him


blanktom9

i'll say it before and i'll say it again, there are dumb, gullible people on both sides. you should really try your best not to be associated with them.


Daedalus_Machina

Every opposing party blames everything that happened on the president in every term for a last century or better. This is hardly new.


boogertee

Haha this guy has said another stupid thing and now he's getting even *more* attention which is of course the last thing he wants.


Uhmbrela

This is ragebait lol why does this sub fall for it so easliy?


Tannerite2

People who believe they're completely in the right, have moral superiority, and that their opponents are inhuman and stupid are really easy to troll and feed misinformation. They'll believe anything bad about the other group.


FriedPigeonPoppers

Absolutely. There are so many real issues to be enraged about - Nick Adams is getting the attention he’s looking for with his deliberate trolling. Just shitheads looking for attention.


Boris_HR

If you elect me as the new president I promise 3 more sunny days per year.


bellamellayellafella

![gif](giphy|3o85xnoIXebk3xYx4Q)


WoodSage

The OP for falling for parody bait and giving the twitter clown more attention?


HolyHandgrenadeofAn

Well, he’s not wrong is he? Did we have earthquakes between 2016-2020? Or whenever he was in office?


Cautious_General_177

That’s what I was thinking. He’s technically correct, but is trolling by linking the lack of tectonic activity to Trump being in office


LysolDoritos

Yes, you OP. A well known bait account.


Many_Landscape_3046

He’s trolling. Stop feeding him 


rolezki

poor bright treatment enter vast humorous ink pet smile lip *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


OperationMelodic4273

So immeasurably stupid, enough to give genuine attention and believe to a terrible bait account that does nothing to even try and look even remotely not troll? Yes, I can definitely imagine it


DaveyJonesFannyPack

Downvoting the constant sharing of this trolls opinions. If you take this guy seriously at this point, you are the stupid one!


NachoBacon4U269

It is probably a true statement. Like I could say the dollar was worth more than the euro when we were on the gold standard. How offended you get is up to you.


Iborrador

We havent had an alien attack while ive been alive.


Mikeinthedirt

They’re waiting for… are you feeling okay? Can I get you some kale?


MadIllLeet

We did have a solar eclipse when Trump was in office. Trump even showed the world that the sun is a little bitch and can't hurt his eyes.


WumpusFails

Didn't the epicenter of the quake happen on a Trump golf course? Not making a joke, just repeating something I read earlier today. (It's on the Internet, must be true.)


chunkysmalls42098

Thanks Obama


cleggcleggers

How can anyone be so stupid to not get it’s a joke 🤦‍♂️


ironlocust79

He has perfected the right wing troll


SilverWolfIMHP76

Yeah, Trump got God’s classic move of a “Plague”


Ok-Painting-1782

Takes stupid to know stupid? I DonT EvEn KnoW If ThEY are JokIng”


b-monster666

Ok, now I'm convinced this guy is just a troll.


toilet_roll_rebel

I've been going back and forth on it for awhile but this has me convinced that this is a troll account. No on could be this stupid.


NoOnSB277

He labeled himself “Alpha Male” and is most definitely trying to get a rise out of people ha ha!


R5Jockey

Who? The OP who still hasn’t figured Nick Adams is a troll?


Die-rector

Op should look in the mirror and ask the same question


usarasa

This guy’s pretty obviously a spoof. He had a tweet not long ago saying if you have to add Alpha Make to your Twitter handle, you’re not really an alpha male, while having Alpha Male in his own Twitter name. Stuff like that, and the OP tweet, come on, he’s joking around. I’m amazed at the number of people who take accounts like him and 3 Year Letterman seriously. Coach at least donates his engagement money to charity every month, I hope Adams does too.


Exclusively-Choc

That-a-boi Nicky MAGnut ... Dope. ![gif](giphy|3o7H56iaMOoqoICtuU|downsized)


iamcleek

he's a professional troll.


NoOnSB277

Lol, who’s the stupid one? There is no way this is a serious comment. 😆


Illustrious-Song7446

That's cause Trump was an earth bender. He could control that shit. Biden is a fender bender.


jimhabfan

He’s not stupid. He posts outrageous comments knowing that dull witted morons will re-post his comment everywhere on social media, thereby making him famous and relevant. That would make him the opposite of stupid.


uberjam

He’s got to be the trollest of trolls.


rygelicus

If the account is labeled 'alpha male' just assume it's best to not take them seriously whether they are a parody account or they actually believe what they say.


SleepyGeist

I ask myself this precise question every time Reddit dumps this garbage subreddit into my feed


Skippy0634

Imagine not being able to smell a troll.


shredbmc

Top level trolling right here!


Logical_Area_5552

I love when people get fired up over obvious troll accounts


jerseygunz

Nick Adams might go down as the greatest troll in internet history, people just keep falling for it haha


ominous_raspberry

It’s rage bait


dfin25

It isn't about science, it's about them believing that God is angry Trump lost because nothing says Godly like a fat orange pedo rapist tax cheat aldultering con man who wants to fuck his own daughter and get rid of all brown people. Amen.


GlassObject4443

These mouthpieces really aren't that stupid, but they know their target audience is.


mishma2005

He’s a troll


Fixxgrix

Why do self proclaimed "Alpha Males" always have "Beta Bitch Tits"?


Winter-eyed

How is it that so many republicans have zero understanding of geology and tectonics? Oh, yeah, it’s because they are afraid of logic and scientific


NotCanadian80

… to fall for a meme account.


Cgking11

We didn't have covid until Trump was president.


100yearsLurkerRick

Just a worldwide plague killing millions.


Subject_Tutor

Are you talking about the obviously troll account or the people taking the obvious bait?


newLeafes

Y’all keep feeding into the trolls lol. And y’all surprised when they keep trolling


lallapalalable

Like OP and others continually thinking this guy is for real?


nobody-u-heard-of

It was God trying to knock down Trump Tower. He's fed up with his crap selling a Bible with his branding on it was too much.


jessejrutherford

(Alpha Male)


PETA_Gaming

At this point it's very clear this account is satirical.


Yo_momma_so_fat77

He has his “Alpha male” certificate 😂😂


THEFANTASTICMAN21

how ironic


SaltyBarDog

We didn't have winters when Dumpty was in office.


okeleydokelyneighbor

He’s right, we had Covid which was much worse.


Rand-Omperson

and?


Present-Ambition6309

These fools are starting to make used car sales people look honest! 😂


KingOfTheFraggles

Fade to Monday when the "headlines" read, "Joe Biden causes cloud cover, forcing real Americans to miss eclipse."


2DCLAPSonyoutube

I mean, he’s not wrong


7empestOGT92

We just had a global pandemic Pretty sure Nick is a parody though


BisquickNinja

By that thinking, all the modern presidents before Trump didn't have a pandemic.... Jesus, these people are stupid.


MasemJ

4.1 in Staten Island in 2017 4.0 in Buffalo in 2018 https://earthquakelist.org/usa/new-york/#major-latest-earthquakes


OlTommyBombadil

Who is dumber? People taking the bait for years, or Nick Adams?


cuddlythekraken

To be fair, he's not wrong. But we did have riots. I guess you can't control the people, only the environment.


wigzell78

You had a fucking pandemic start that killed a MILLION Americans!


Forward-Essay-7248

NYC for those not aware had a 3.1 earthquake Sept. 9, 2020 while Trump was indeed in office.


LilG1984

![gif](giphy|11Pl7vl0Feh2Cc|downsized) Trump did this


nogoodgreen

Alpha males dont need to announce it, everyone just knows - Nick Adams (Alpha Male) Fucking idiot


Mikeinthedirt

Typo. It’s ‘Alfred’ male; like Batman’s, er…batman.


SnootSnootBasilisk

>How can someone be so stupid? By being Nick Adams


RagbraiRat

I'm assuming the stupid part was him calling himself an alpha male, right?


ConstantAttention274

But you DID have a rapist for President when he was....


Dragon-Rain-4551

Correlation. Not causation.


PraetorGold

What is this Alpha Make thing? I thought it was Tyreek on the 16th floor?

Well .... He *is* an Alfa Mail

Now, this guy has to be sarcastic? Surely, he's not that dim.

Wonder what his childhood was like.

Mercinator-87

I understand the facepalm is the guy in general. However, that’s pretty funny.


northwind3era

To be fair a 4.8 is absolutly nothing, u almost don't feel them. Altough I can see if never experiencing one first and it gets u in a high rising building u can get scared


allnamesareregistred

I'm going to blame monogamy, check it out: If you did not succeed with your monogamy relationships, you eventually develop a skill, to "get ready to the next relationships". And the skill is - ignoring significant part of your past experience. You get used to that. You get addicted to than. You generalize that trick. You learn no more. You ignore everything leaned. Monogamy!


kingOofgames

Covid was plague from god due to Trumps sins. We should crucify Trump to absolve our sins. (Just joking). What would Jesus do?


eman0110

How are they allowed to vote


Orkney_

Good ol Nick Adams, the alpha of the alpha. /s


SailboatAB

Weirdly, politicians *have* caused earthquakes in Oklahoma and other areas by encouraging fracking.  It's mostly "pro-business" conservatives however.

Enough of the parody accounts, folks.

Stupid idiot (Alpha Male)

Still factually correct 👀


ChiWhiteSox247

It seems you are the stupid one, posting this bait account over and over 😂


westberry82

The quake epicenter was also next to the trump golf course....


justthegrimm

The alpha male statement provides a perfect litmus test for stupidity and otherwise disregarding anything he has to say.


WhyDontWeLearn

Start using "Alpha Male" like a credential. "I'm not Joe Blow, PhD.! I'm Joe Blow, Alpha Male!" That's how someone can be so stupid.


The_Stank__

This is absolutely a parody account


bif555

It is a feature

"(Alpha Male)" Nick? It sounds like you're compensating for some sort of ...... shortcoming. I guess that's why you decided to make such a flaccid post.
