42. Appropriate the phrase: This could easily be turned into a cheer for Biden

When you hear someone say it, just say wow I didn't know you support Joe Biden. Tell them that you know that Brandon means Biden and that "let's go" is obvious a sign of support! They'll have a devil of a time explaining how it's really negative. Just shake your head as they try to explain and say "come on, 'let's go' sure sounds positive to me". Just nod and say it's great if you support him, that you do too!

Appropriating terms is what right-wingers usually do, trying to turn the words "woke" or "liberal" into negative meanings, so it's only fair play to play the same game.

Next time this happens, loudly yell FUCK YOU and FUCK DONALD TRUMP. Goddamn children CurtEastPoint Oct 2021 #1
