Glaring Typo On Time Magazine's Cover

Isn't chaz British? o__O

Also, this is unrelated and unimportant, but I don't think I've ever heard someone refer to something as a "blaring typo" before. Could you mean a "glaring typo" instead?

I guess that's your lack of understanding of politics on show, they bore you unless someone like the presidential equivalent of the Kardashians comes along. Who'd be your second choice? Hulk Hogan? Maybe Clint Eastwood into the mix so you can have an idiot right-wing celebrity trifecta? Actual politicians are too boring and hard to keep up with.

Maybe I'm being unfair and you do follow some politicians, as long as they're white. Yeah, I did notice you brought up Obama's race unprompted. Are you shaving your head for Trump's inauguration, or donning your budget white ghost costume?

Ghost costumes aren't popular here in Australia, nor are angry pale small ignorami.

I'll probably watch Trump's inauguration to gloat in the pathetic protests of people so in denial of their outdated sense of entitled relevance, that they think their indignation will be noticed with anything but satisfying amusement.

You know what I'm talking about; has-beens pretending to be influential.

In the long term, have fun watching the left wing live in complete denial, guaranteeing their loss in four years, before finally trying to shift towards being more like the right.

These are epic times for spectators, as they watch dinosaurs plod around under stratospheric comet-impact dust-clouds. The rage against their extinguished relevance is both fascinating and entertaining.

I love a good show with my dinner.
 
Oh brother, I've heard more about this cover before even seeing it.

For some reason, I figured that the 'typo' this thread was referring to the fact that the cover says 'President of the Divided States of America' rather than the use of 'Person of the Year' instead of 'Man of the Year.' It's not the magazine trying to be more gender neutral. Person of the Year has been around since the early 1930's and it's drawing comparison to Hitler when he was given the title back in '38. Apparently the lighting and the pose brings to mind '1940's dictator.' Also, the 'M' forms devil horns above Mr. Trump's head. Or so the internet says. I have no clue.

The future for America looks so bright.

Thing is, pretty much every President of the United States has received the honour. People are freaking out because any discussion of Trump pretty much guarantees someone will invoke Goodwin's Law and Hitler was one of the controversial figures that also received the honor.

I actually didn't know Stalin got it twice. There was a stand up guy.

Agree with you here.

Time tends to claim that the award is for figures who had a big impact on a year, "for better or for worse." It's hard to argue that Stalin and Hitler didn't have rather large impacts on the world during the peaks of their power. Who the new president of the USA is, is certainly a big deal, and this election particularly has made big waves, and been possibly the most divisive election I've witnessed... for better, or for worse. Seeing his face on the cover, given that hardly anyone has been able to shut up about Trump this year, for better or for worse, is not a surprise.
 
I think it's cute that the media finally picked up, and publicized the strategically place red M as horns on the PE's head :D

I did not notice this until mentioned here.
I have noticed however things I have mentioned here talked about in the news later...using the same terminology.
Also one of my ideas for a story has apparently become a new TV show called Evolve.
So either I am predicting things unknowingly or...people are responding to some of what I put online.
 
It's both annoying and funny to see how upset the crybaby left (that's a real defining term now btw, Not one I made up) remains over Trump. Especially considering the past 8 years of complete crap Americans have had to endure with Obama and his seething hatred of America.

So you're in the minority then.

Also I love how you're trying to imagine that everyone anti-trump is part of the left, even when...

Texas 'faithless elector' becomes first Republican to pledge to vote against Trump

Or both:-) You have a good grasp if politics. Ever think of running for office? Yourself and a few others here have good insights regarding government life. Keep up the good work because some of us follow along :D

Ahead of the bell curve on many counts, yes.

The anti-Trump are substantially left; it goes hand in hand with their over-emotionality; they fear and hate what doesn't coddle and mother them. They haven't learned that there are better ways to win arguments for themselves, than to throw tantrums. It's always a very obvious indicator that a person knows their opinion is nonsense, when they prefer to appeal to emotion, than to reason, results, or impartial evidence.

As for the faithless elector, the term says enough in itself. Given this elector is from Texas, the likelihood that more left-leaning people will be Republican is conceivable than elsewhere; only the delusional and protestor types would run Democrat in guaranteed red states. Anyone who wishes to be actually engaged in politics, in red states, would gravitate towards the Republican Party.

No no no no no no no......
I couldn't live in the filth. Odd other people have suggested that I consider it. Apparently intjs are thought of as being a good fit for that profession but while I maintain interest in the direction the world takes...no way could I be that close to corruption for long. Thanks for thinking that though. :)

Since winning the election, Trumpeteers have attempted to boycott a musical, a coffee chain, a cereal brand, and now a movie because they've only just figured out after 40 years that Star Wars is anti-fascist. Oh but tell me again that it's the left that are throwing tantrums. In fact you attempted your very own little whine here over Trump not being named "Man" of the year until someone informed your dumb shit self that Time have been using "Person" for decades. Oh and do you honestly think Trump appeals to reason, results, or evidence? Followup question; do you think the Earth is flat?

And hmm.. yes... your theory that the Texan elector is secretly a dastardly liberal in disguise is certainly well thought out. I mean, it would be surprising if a Republican happened to actually recognise that Trump is unfit for office. Though funnily enough that was exactly what the Republicans were saying before they realised their voting base are all complete fucking morons. That said, Trump still managed to have less votes than both losing Republican candidates previously, but I guess those lost votes were all leftists too.

Trump's won, and you still can't stop complaining about the opposition. You're a fucking joke mate.
