That was stupid assumption, wasn't it?

>People don't understand the purpose of twitter.
Make a quick point and move on, or just link a medium post

>The UK political elite deliberately sabotaging Brexit is the same as bart wanting an african elephant.
He should probably stick to History.

E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)

You're too young to understand wanting an elephant in 1994.

What is this guy trying to even say? That the people's choice is being cast aside because it was the "wrong choice"? Or that the wrong choice is bad and you should get the right choice?

The elephant = Trump's Wall

You should get the elephants you decided on and not what radio stations push on to you

>haha fuck vox populi it was never real
some people

>The people listening to the radio in the old folks’ home are delighted with misplaced nostalgia: ‘Hey, they’re playing the elephant song!’ says one. ‘I love that one – reminds me of elephants’ says another.
OH WOW THIS IS EXACTLY LIKE MODERN-DAY POLITICS.

This actually happened once. Pepsi did a joke ad in the '90s where if you bought enough "Pepsi Points" you could get a fighter jet (like a million dollars' worth of points). Of course, no one was ever supposed to accumulate that many points, only enough to get the much more realistic prizes.
Some richfag decided to call Pepsi's bluff and bought enough points to, technically, be awarded a fighter jet, and tried to sue them when he didn't get his jet.

He's saying that Brexit is bad for the UK economy and should be cancelled.
In other news, have you guys ever noticed how trump is literally voldemort and Kamala Harris is like hermione?

this is what the episode is referring to to begin with anyways

Don't radios just cut the line? Why would they keep him on and just play a record over him?

How'd pepsi weasel their way out of that?

There was also Proposition 8
>Ask Californians if they want to allow gay marriage
>They say no
>LEL JOKE'S ON YOU THE QUESTION WAS UNCONSTITUTIONAL SO YOU'LL GET IT ANYWAY

didn't pepsi had a military for a while?

Bart is America, Hillary is 10,000 dollars, Bernie is lobster-Skinner, Trump is the African elephant.

>given a binary choice

was this so he could save character space or to sound smart?

>no one was supposed to pick the elephant

Based economically-pragmatic poster

Meanwhile the economic outlook for most of the EU is shit. The worst thing about brexit is all the fuckwits on the left who have become economics experts overnight the same people who cry “da economy” would also vote for someone like Corbyn who would cripple the economy more than leaving a dying custom union.

You’re based and redpilled I want you to know that

Reminder that blacks voted in record numbers that year (Obama) and overwhelmingly voted against same sex marriage.

SNEED

based

holy shit after all these years i finally get it

>Yes won
Wait wut
>Eliminates Rights of Same-Sex Couples to Marry
Oh, right, that makes sense. Although it makes it more confusing than it should be. Lawmakers shouldn't ask negative questions like this one, because even retards are allowed to vote.
>Do you want gays to NOT marry?
Should be
>Do you want gays to marry?

Without reading it further than one tweet, its most likely about ZOGnald Trumpstein

Farmer 1 = AOC, City Slicker = DNC, ear of corn = Green New Deal, Homer's car = 2020 candidate race.

Was killing elephants for Ivory legal back then?
