    I know what they are! They’re useless things McDonalds tries to goad you into installing with promises of a free $3 burger so they can sell all your data to everyone who wants it because apps have a higher level of access to it than m.mcdonalds.zip or whatever their shitty website is.

    And some of the ones on F-Droid are actually useful.

    Ask any person above the age of, say, 40 (I’m not looking this up, but in Western countries that should suffice to qualify for ‘most’ pople) what an app is, exactly. I wonder what the response will be.

      Idk, but I think you’d have to go a lot higher have that. Like, your parents know what an app is. Maybe your grandparents don’t, but mine do. So I think it would basically have to be like people over 70 or something

      Yeah. What 45 said is technically a true statement… If it was said by a geek or a programmer. With him it’s always surface level.

        No. I’m context he was saying immigrants must be smart for using apps to cross the border because almost no one knows what an app is.

        Watch the video. He belongs in a home.

          He belongs in a home.

          He would if he wasn’t a felon. He belongs in jail.

          The context always makes him look worse. This guy has advanced dementia and it is getting worse by the day.

            I feel like a vote for trump is really a vote for Vance. Idk which is worse.

        But how does it even make sense? I would have said I was 99% confident he used two apps all the time over the years. First, ex-Twitter, and now his own social-network-which-shall-not-be-named.

        wat

          I know a few older people who have smartphones, and while they can use things like Twitter or Facebook on the phone, if you told them that you were installing an app, they wouldn’t know what you meant.

          They’re the type of people who were never interested in computers, and used them as appliances, possibly never needing to install things themselves. As they moved to phones, they either get their kids or the shop to set them up.

          They understand using Twitter on the phone, but don’t really understand the concept of how it works.

    This happens when the opposite side turns on the propaganda machine on that specific subject (which when Biden was a possibility wouldn’t make sense).

    He’s old and has been for a while, and I’m all for kamala. Just interesting how that flaw was “overlooked” when it was convenient.

      If he shuffles off this mortal coil he’d leave Vance in charge. I don’t know why more hadn’t been made of this fact.

        Everyone who understands that Vance is an inexplicably married incel will already be voting against Donald.

        Maybe the couchnutter is an attempt to stop further assassination attempts? Prop up a VP that’s even more deranged and unlikable, so people reconsider if it’s worth it to off you?

    When Trump says “most people” he’s talking about himself.

    I didn’t see what he said, I should hunt myself but can someone re-recommend a way I can see said footage without going on Twitter. If not, I’ll pass on giving their advertisement companies views
