Bullshit. I just watched that speech, and there was no chant — it was clearly one person saying “lock him up”, and they didn’t even repeat it. And she was grinning before that applause break, not in response to a random heckle at the end of it. Wtf is this.
Not bullshit. They’re not talking about the heckle they’re talking about the 10 seconds of chanting at 7:18. Watch again. https://youtu.be/2soe8ml_weg?si=uJqnlGGNU4SF8im_
I hear “KA-MA-LA” pretty clearly there, I really can’t make it out as “lock him up”.
Same.
Idk, to my ears, it could’ve been either. It’s a bit like the Laurel/Yanny thing or the blue and bronze dress. Would need someone who was there to confirm.
Yeah, I was thinking the same tbh. All you can really say is whatever it is has 3 syllabuls, it’s so muffled everything else is pareidolia.
I put on my sony wh-1000xm5’s to get as clear audio as I could. The first few chants could be interpreted as “lock him up” but it quickly turned to a clear “Ka-ma-la” once the cheering and clapping reduced.
At 8:34 there was a single clear “lock him up” after Harris mentioned Trump’s recent conviction.
So that’s settled now, I they weren’t chanting “lock him up”
To be fair, I only listened to it through my phone speakers
Honestly who the fuck cares. Some random people maybe started a chant at a political rally, candidate smiles…the fuck is this “news” story?
I’m unable to hear lock him up much at all. “Loh 'im uh!” is the closest I can get when forcing it… I’m just not hearing any Ks or Ps at the end of those words, no matter how hard I try.
Do we finally have our own version of “Let’s go Brandon”??
It’s “Ka-ma-la”… I just replayed it over and over, trying to hear “lock him up”, and at this point I feel like I’m trying to unfocus my eyes at a Jackson Pollock and expecting to see a schooner.
don’t be like that, they are just saying that the two events happened at the same time. “Kamala Harris grins as the world marks new hottest day on record”, “Kamala Harris grins as hundreds more flights get cancelled after huge IT outage”. See? Perfectly innocent journalism!
Propaganda?
I mean, fuck Drumpf into a hole with his own arms, but this is still BS.
Maybe watch the rally? I watched the whole thing live and did not register “lock him up” on my second wacth i heard that some people do chant “lock him up” it doesn’t catch on and is drowned out by Ka-Ma-La. You can’t believe everything (anything) you read in a headline.

I’m not laughing. I get why some people think it’s funny, but it’s not a good cycle to be in.
Trump should not have been trying to sell outcomes in the justice system as a political move. It isn’t going to improve the situation any to do the same back.
This should have never started. It shouldn’t be perpetuated.
So tell me, what’s the difference between one candidate calling to lock up their opponent for ‘crimes’, and another letting the crowd repeat the first one’s chant after they were convicted of multiple felonies and are doing their damned best to weasel out of countless more criminal proceedings? Is it minuscule, or a massive difference that makes the two situations not remotely the same? Hint: the latter one.
Fuck him, lock him up. Criminals should be called out as criminals, especially when they’re running for office. Boo fucking hoo, don’t like being called a criminal, don’t be a criminal, and don’t be super public running off your stupid dumb mouth.
Maybe the civil war is inevitable. And maybe a half-decent multi-party democracy comes out of this too. Jesus christ, the internet is full of this shitshow of a “democracy” these days.
How is it not democratic to bring up the fact that the opponent is a criminal who is only not behind bars because of who he is? In an actual democracy the fucking felon wouldn’t be able to run because his crimes would have disqualified him from running. But in this banana republic he gets to walk around and plot for his second attempt at a coup.
So again, fuck him, lock him up. And fuck off with this bullshit that we should forget that he’s a traitor to the country and should absolutely be in jail for the crimes he committed, and he’s only not in jail because of the anti-democratic moves by his toadies in congress and in the judicial system. That’s the real undemocratic part of this whole campaign, not some fucking chanting at a political rally.
It’s a two-party system. So first of all there is no way for you to vote if you want a middle ground. Or if you want something done that none of the two parties have in their program. There is zero political color in the US. Just Red and Blue yelling at each other. There are other democracies where you can vote for like 20 parties and multiple parties end up forming the government. There is not one winner. You’ll get proportionally represented no matter what. The US system big time in this regard and is probably the number one reason for all the unrest in the country.
Secondly, everything is about the candidate all the time. It’s not about the politicics at all. In a democracy it should be about the party and what they want to do. There should be a program that you can look up on their website that you can vote on. The candidate is just an interchangable delegate representing the party. So in a good democracy, you should be able to vote based on the party’s program alone and the party’s views should be very clear and concistent. But I’m not sure they even have a program here. All I hear is “president this, president that” and a lot of drama about the person.
Third, the actual voting system itself. There should be a direct vote for the party and not based on the states.
