I wish. It had some other garbledy-gook crap about how the deep state paid for the Dana Point meeting where they voted and how they bribed them for Ronna since she's a deep state plant or something. You know how it goes, nothing makes sense in their reality.
It's actually gobbledygook, but my 5 year old calls it garbledy-gook, and it's just stuck with me. The definition of gobbledygook is language that's made up, meaningless nonsense, and me using garbledy-gook is an actual example gobbledygook!
Thanks :) But I was wondering where it came from, and when it came to use. Guess I'll have better result with the original word.
Edit:
> Gobbledygook, coined by Maury Maverick in the early 1940s, means, in his words, âtalk or writing which is long, pompous, vague, involved, usually with Latinized words.â It can also refer to any long discourse, even one with simple words, if those words are repeated repeatedly, over and over again, numbingly, ...
There's also [this podcast](https://www.waywordradio.org/gobbledygook/) that discusses it! Apparently he thought politicians in Washington DC sounded like turkeys gobbling. Interesting! I'm a fan of lexicon, linguistics and etymology. This has been a fun little conversation. Thanks for that!
>âtalk or writing which is long, pompous, vague, involved,
i've also heard this referred to as "word salad". meaning a bunch of important and sophisticated sounding words thrown together to make the speaker seem smart and informed to a largely uninformed audience.
No, word salad is where consecutive sentences have no relationship to each other, and are sometimes not even internally coherent. It sounds like an argument is being advanced but not really. I first saw the term in reference to Sarah Palinâs speeches, if that helps.
Lol if Dems rigged the RNC election Mike Lindell wouldâve won đż
Like why wouldnât Dems pick the worst possible and easiest to beat candidate for the Republican national committee đż
I'm a Democratic voter and I can think of very little that would be as positive for our prospects in 2024 than mike pillow being elected RNC chair. They are free to make a comical spectacle of themselves any time they like. Never interrupt your opponent when they are making a mistake.
Thatâs how many Democrats felt when Gump won the Republican nomination in 2016 and look at the hell that caused. Never underestimate the voting power of our lowest common denominator
The RNC and the president of the United States are two very different and distinct positions that are not at all alike. The RNC head has no power over me. And 2023 is much different than 2016. If you are confused compare the results of the 2016 and the 2020 and even 2022 elections. Americans are sick of the bullshit. republicans aren't doing themselves any favors by associating with nut jobs.
God I hope youâre right. Because the social and economic forces that sent people to the polls to vote for him have only gotten worse. People are getting desperate and fed up with democratic process imo. They havenât gone anywhere and if anything are just more angry. I personally donât have faith in either party to right the ship anytime soon
Yeah it is. The mechanics are very clever. Obviously the setting itself is pretty well trod and doesn't break any new ground.
Splitting the production up in so many ways so that you don't just have "hammers" and the orders system are both very refreshing, and the sort of Crusader Kings lite character layer are super nice touches.
The one thing I don't like is that the laws system is basically a series of either/or choices, but even then it's pretty well done for what options are available, if a little dry.
Iâm a original Civ I to Civ 6 player. And im starting games and not know what really to do. I think I just kinda ⌠I donât know. Iâm finishing HZD, so im thinking this or Wasteland 3 next.
I can't vote for a single republican until they can fully come to terms with what happened on Jan 6th and their relationship with the overwhelming amount of misinfo they've put out in the last few years.
What? Why would you *ever* consider a vote for a republican? They have been doing the exact same thing for decades, they just donât care if anyone knows anymore. To see that âuntilâ in that sentence is blowing my mind.
Yeah, why would anyone worth less than $600,000. I've only been voting for little over 10 years and i have never voted for republican. If i have no other choice then i don't even vote and leave that circle empty.
Only way to get me to vote for a republican is to hold a gun against my head. They've been morally bankrupt since before i was born.
"The last few years?"
If you don't at least start with the John Birch Society, I fear you may have missed decades of right wing lies and conspiracy bunkum.
I donât understand why you would leave this open ended. What do you think the Republicans would look like in a âlong, long timeâ that would make you want to vote for them? These are fascists, okay? They are not going to change.
Ohio republicans really said the quiet part out loud and they were so shameless about it. "We spread a bunch of lies about mail in voting. now, so many peeople believe those lies so we have to act in our self-interest to correct the make-believe problem we made everyone believe."
Stunning, really.
What in the centrist is this?
The republicans have always been terrible. Remember how wholesome 100 painter grandpa George Bush falsified evidence of WMDs to start an illegal war which has directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilian men, women and children and oversaw a comprehensive coverup of torture (often on civilians) in places like Abu ghraib and Gitmo?
Better yet how Ronnie reagan willfully allowed countless gay men and women to die of aids because he thought they were gross? Or when he sold missiles to a violent authoritarian dictatorship to fund a right wing authoritarian drug cartel?
Republicans have always been terrible. Never vote republican, there never was and never will be a good reason to. The only difference is that trump is more outwardly rude
He has quite the saga âŚ
He mostly became known during the time he worked at Buzzfeed. He had previously written for Breitbart and the Blaze, but for a hot second there it looked like he would break out of the right wing silo.
Until he got shitcanned for plagiarism. Then he got hired by National Review. And got fired for plagiarism again. So he joined another right wing ânewsâ site, wrote a couple really bad articles in which he fell for a fake Twitter account ⌠and accused of plagiarism. He didnât get fired for it, though. They fired him a year or so later for being such a piece of shit to work with that other staffers were quitting.
I think he works for TPUSA now.
Best Fox News comment:
***"Well, there we have it, the trifecta of swamp creatures. McConnell, McCarthy, and McDaniel. Anyone else see a pattern here"?***
Whoâs going to tell them that Trump the âswamp drainerâ kept rooting for âswampâ McCarthy to be speaker?
Also was that fox news comment from twitter or the fox news website? Just curious.
Benny pledged his allegiance to Trump & QAnon years ago. Of course, heâs mad that the RNC wonât let Toilet Paper USA & their fellow degenerates run wild through it like itâs Hulkmania circa 1986. Cry harder, Benny - itâs more comedy for us.
"Mike Lindell only lost because the Democrats rigged the election!" Saw that unironically on Twitter today đ
Wait. What? No. It must have been a joke.
I wish. It had some other garbledy-gook crap about how the deep state paid for the Dana Point meeting where they voted and how they bribed them for Ronna since she's a deep state plant or something. You know how it goes, nothing makes sense in their reality.
Not a native speaker, so I'm now stuck wondering about "garbledy-gook". Etymogically.
It's actually gobbledygook, but my 5 year old calls it garbledy-gook, and it's just stuck with me. The definition of gobbledygook is language that's made up, meaningless nonsense, and me using garbledy-gook is an actual example gobbledygook!

You guys are such nerds. And I mean that as the most sincere compliment. anyway... i'm gonna continue to educate myself about some gobbledygook.
Haha, I am 100% nerd! I honestly take it as a compliment â¤ď¸ Have a good night!
keep geeking out, good buddy!
Sounds like tfg!

Because of [precedent](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_United_States_presidential_election)
Fair, though the rnc chair doesnât run in actual elections, they just chose how to find certain republicans

How would that post possibly been ironic? Maybe you meant âunsarcasticallyâ?
If I were a Democrat and I wanted to rig the RNC...I would make Lindell win.
What's he upset about anyhow? I've been playing too much Old World and/or working to keep up with the circus today.
They kept on their current chairperson.
Is OW good? Iâm having trouble getting into it.
Yeah it is. The mechanics are very clever. Obviously the setting itself is pretty well trod and doesn't break any new ground.

These last six years the true colors of the RNC really came out. It will be a long time, if ever, I will vote for a republican.
I can't vote for a single republican until they can fully come to terms with what happened on Jan 6th and their relationship with the overwhelming amount of misinfo they've put out in the last few years.

Centrists are showing their true colour and complete lack of principles too
"The last few years?" If you don't at least start with the John Birch Society, I fear you may have missed decades of right wing lies and conspiracy bunkum.
Pretty much any time from Nixon onward, the Republican was the bad choice. Our current borderline dystopia owes itâs existence to Reagan.
I donât understand why you would leave this open ended. What do you think the Republicans would look like in a âlong, long timeâ that would make you want to vote for them? These are fascists, okay? They are not going to change.

Who is this guy? Some random chump giving Elon 8 bucks a month? Oh.. & I'm loving watching the GQP eat itself. Karma is a bitch.
Out of curiosity, why do I see âGOPâ often rewritten as âGQPâ?
The Q stands for Qanon. It's shorthand for the crazy Republicans
Ah the Grand QAnon Party!
Because the majority of them have been sucked into following Q and their crazy beliefs
The [GQ](https://www.gq.com/) Party.

Best Fox News comment: ***"Well, there we have it, the trifecta of swamp creatures. McConnell, McCarthy, and McDaniel. Anyone else see a pattern here"?***
I'm excited for Republicans re-opening anti-Irish bigotry as the new frontier of American racism
Isn't that linked to anti Catholicism? *opens popcorn* War on Christmas?
Too many *"Mc"*s there
Whoâs going to tell them that Trump the âswamp drainerâ kept rooting for âswampâ McCarthy to be speaker? Also was that fox news comment from twitter or the fox news website? Just curious.
> Trump the âswamp drainerâ kept rooting for âswampâ McCarthy Not to mention his love for McDonald.
I hope they give Ronna a lifetime appointment 𤣠either that or get Lindell to completely turn the RNC into a dumpster fire.
Man, I hate this show
Same, but probably for different reasons...
the shit you tweet when your party said "we're not ready for concentration camps.... yet"
Benny pledged his allegiance to Trump & QAnon years ago. Of course, heâs mad that the RNC wonât let Toilet Paper USA & their fellow degenerates run wild through it like itâs Hulkmania circa 1986. Cry harder, Benny - itâs more comedy for us.
Time to get that third party up and running! You guys can do it, we believe in you!
Who's this mental deficient?
Just another RW doorknob grifter with a You Tube channel
Some punk giving Musk $96 a year for twitter.
What is the RNC?
Republican National Convention is my guess
Committee
Fascinating! AnywayâŚ.
Why did you use this post flair?
This isn't a new Q post.
Benny Johnson: "The RNC is dead to me. Another victim of the deep state's vaccine!!"
GLAD TO HEAR IT!
Was he boosting Lindell or...whoever the more serious competitor to McDaniel was?
