The confidence to use "anthropomorphic" that incorrectly on live TV is next level. My guy thinks he's describing an episode of Paw Patrol, not a protest. A whole nuclear engineer serving up word salad for breakfast on Fox News. Absolutely wild.

Dodgers just sent a message 🔥 — Yamamoto pitched a clinic, the bats raged, and the series is officially spiraling #Brewers style. Meanwhile, Paula is three-for-three and riding high, and Hillbilly Bob is losing arguments to humidity and baseballs with Wi-Fi.

Aww, look at you, breaking out the animal metaphors like you’re auditioning for National Geographic: Rage Edition. Breathe, grandpa — no one’s attacking you, we’re just fact-checking your bedtime stories.

So you’re totally proving my point. You are wrong about California getting 85% of the pots and pans. Are you ok sweetie?

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 14h

Omg you did it! You managed to post the absolute dumbest response I’ve seen all month. Congrats!

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 14h

Yes and California handles what percentage? Or are you suggesting only California gets the non-stick pots and pans and no one else in the country does? If only you knew what a clown you sound like right now.

And where in there does it say, and I quote you “85% of California cookware is from China?” It doesn’t!

Look at you bringing receipts. Cute! Problem is you’re proving yourself wrong. You said California gets 85%. Your own receipt says 40+%. You should read it before you post it. The rest is what the US uses as a whole.

Wait, Eric can write? Like, with words and sentences and everything? Are we sure he didn't just dictate it into a Fisher-Price tape recorder and someone else typed it up? I'm gonna need to see some receipts on this.

"85%," huh? That's a nice, round, dramatic number you definitely just made up. Cite your source. See, the difference between you and me is that when I talk politics here or on my podcast, I bring the receipts for every single claim I make. You just throw out fake stats to prop up your feelings.

My dude, the entire point of 1776 was so that we wouldn't have a king. It's, like, the country's whole brand. Thanks for the accidental confession that you're a monarchist who would have been on the other side of the Revolutionary War. The Founding Fathers would have loved this post.

See? You could have just said you disagree with the veto on health grounds. That's a real argument that adults could debate.
But you didn't. You just typed "China. Thats why." And that's the difference between being a serious person and being a clown.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 16h

Oh, look who finally decided to use Google. Welcome. So you're saying the real reason for the veto was... a boring policy debate about regulations and consumer costs? And not your grand international conspiracy involving China? Thanks for finally catching up and proving my entire point for me.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 16h

So we didn't learn our lesson about inventing conspiracies, did we? Normal people spend 30 seconds Googling the reason for a veto. Your brain just screams "CHINA!" It's a boring policy decision, not a global plot. The world isn't as exciting as your tinfoil hat wants it to be.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 18h

But I will give you props. At least you are finally at least attempting to provide some kind of proof.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 18h

Wait, you're using Grok as your unbiased fact-checker on this?
Bro, Grok is Elon's AI. Citing Grok to defend a narrative on X is like getting into an argument and then yelling, "Well, my dad says I'm right!" The bias is the entire point of the product.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 18h

My dude, you're describing how a local pizza shop buys ads, not how global brands work. Do you think Nike or Disney don't care about targeting by country? Knowing a user's nation is Marketing 101 for any brand that exists in more than one town. Your "well, actually" is adorably naive. You try again.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 19h

Don't tease me with a good time. Deal.
One good reason: Ad data. It lets advertisers precisely track their international market penetration so they can sell you more stuff. It's always about money, my dude.
Now, as you promised, please quit politics forever. We have it in writing. ✍️

And yet after all that you still don't have a single shred of evidence. You can't find one post. You can't name one person. All you can do is vaguely gesture at "the whole world" and call me nuts. A lil advice: don't post conspiracies unless you have receipts to back them up. You just look foolish.

1

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 19h

Oh, you're still here? Let's be clear. What I "exposed" wasn't a "political bias." I exposed that your "paramount issue" was a sad conspiracy, that you couldn't provide a single fact to back it up, and you don't know how the burden of proof works. That's not bias. That's just you being wrong.

The only "understanding of politics" I demonstrated here is that I know how to spot a sad, insecure conspiracy theory. You brought zero substance, couldn't handle a comeback, and tried to gaslight me about your own posts. Maybe you should come with a real argument next time. But I doubt it.

Paula Donovan @pauladonovan.bsky.social · 19h

LMFAO
You came in here trying to throw heat, but all you had were junk pitches.
Pitch 1: A debunked conspiracy theory. (Strike 1)
Pitch 2: A sad attempt to gatekeep politics. (Strike 2)
Pitch 3: A complete meltdown of logic. (Strike 3)
The "lil baseball girl" sent you back to the dugout. You're out.

LMAO. That's the official anthem of every single person who has ever completely lost an argument and has nothing left. I understood you perfectly. Your arguments were just bad and lack any bases of truth. Take the L and go.
