          Big hallway energy. Zuniga had a plan for ramming the palace gates and a plan for talking to the media, he blanked on what to do in the hallway.

            He was expecting the politicians to flee and go into exile. Then he would just walk in and assume command in absence of a leader.

            It gets super awkward when they just hang around and be like “No thank you.”

            Then you either have to commit to killing some folks and potentially sparking an insurgency or civil war, or stand down.

              I never noticed the guiding hand, oh so gently pushing Ricky Bobby’s hand down, before this. Must be a babysitter that we never see in the movie.

          Or stopped it because he ordered the general to attempt the coup in the first place.

          people with all sizes of dicks and people without dicks are equally valid and capable of asserting authority and commanding respect.

            Lmao chill out, buddy. This is NCD. Im not being misogynistic; I’m simply using an idiom. We’re basically just shitposting about geopolitics.

              that is incredibly far away from the point.

                Would you claim someone using the phrase “killing two birds with one stone” is perpetuating animal violence?

                From Wikipedia:

                The phrase big dick energy denotes an easy confidence or sense or assurance and purpose. In general, having big dick energy is unrelated to whether or not someone actually has a big penis or any penis at all. The term is not gender exclusive, and can be applied to women.

                Stop getting bent out of shape over stupid bullshit. It detracts from the people bringing real inequalities to light.

            Ok, big vajayjay energy. Only women have vajayjays, though, and there were no women in the Coup Hallway at the time that we can see from the photos. Therefore, it was not B.V.E., powerful as it is. It was a dick-based event. Ipso facto.
