it’s a fake tweet
OP acknowledged the tweet as being false and made the appropriate edits to acknowledge it.
There’s no need to continue reporting it.
“Did I say that? I can’t believe I said that.”
He actually never did say this one. It’s a joke.

This kind of misinformation (OP) should either be tagged or not allowed at all. Like, most of us understand it’s a joke but still, maybe we should have better standards than other sites.
yall i got to it as soon as i had time to edit the post and i thanked and upvoted the fact check as soon as i got the notification
literally chill. it’s now tagged. this is a meme community.
You know what I care about in my meme communities? Absolute truth. It can’t be a joke or satire, and absolutely no absurdity, it has to be factual information only in my meme communities.
I think there’s a difference between meme and a completely made up Tweet (or any social media post) where a non-user would not be able to tell if the Tweet is real.
he didn’t say that it’s a meme
I know, he just also recently said that when he was asked if Zelensky is a dictator
/gen? would love a source if so i must have missed that
oh there’s been a miscommunication but i now see what u mean tyty
Please tag your post as a joke, not real, or similar. If you leave it in its current state [2], you are knowingly peddling disinformation [1].
Update (2025-03-06T01:45Z): OP has modified the post’s body stating that it’s a fake tweet [3]. Imo, the title should preface that it’s fake [1].

[…] i don’t appreciate how you deleted then reposted to spam my notifs.
What? I haven’t deleted, nor reposted anything in this context. Are you sure you aren’t just getting a ping because I @mentioned you in the comment’s references [1]?

Just a harmless observation here, but I can’t help but notice that liberals spend way too much time de-bunking, but not nearly enough time bunking.
what does this mean lol
Good question! I mean, I’m not suggesting that the left should create compelling, motivating, entertaining (but not necessarily “literally” true) content targeting low-information voters in an effort to swamp out fascist garbage. Nor would I imply that the time has come to use every underhanded, dirty, ratfucking trick in the book to make those voters distrust Republicans. Heaven forbid!
But I will say outright that in my estimation the left’s fastidious, timid, mousy attempts to debunk the tidal wave of fascist bullshit is not working out very well.
too much sarcasm i was being genuine. if you want to give me a real answer feel free but i literally cannot parse what you mean here :(
We need more viral leftist shitposting, and less concern about getting every single fact exatly right.
oh okay thank you!
yeah actually a lot of my account is focused doing exactly that :) this is reposted, but my original content i try to keep very rhetorically effective—and i also fact check it (unlike this trainwreck lol)

Someone ping me when impeachments mean something.
Trump has been impeached already.As much as I admire this, it must be remembered that the Orange Clown does not play by any rules, including those he imposes on others.
Why are we posting straight-up lies?
because i didn’t know also it’s a joke and impacts no one.
post is now tagged.
