There is straight up no time to get the wheels properly in time to prevent significant effects. And once the feedback loops kick in there’s almost no way to stop the cascading

This ludicrous reality would be slightly more tolerable if people would stop acting like this is business as usual

He doesn’t give a flying fuck if it’s real or not, he’s a dictator and dictators want to bend reality to their will and be praised for everything whether they actually did anything or not.

Hate ages you worse than cigarettes

I honestly can’t tell anymore if he’s just so committed to the lie that he has hair to preserve his ego. Or if he actually has become so delusional that he believes he still has a full head of hair at 79. This reality is stupid and I hate it here

The entirety of American politics and business is currently kayfabe, a lot of it has been for a while but its become complete

I’ve been thinking this about the last few of these but I’ll be shocked if these go without some sort of catalyzing incident

Is there a source on that? Not saying it’s not true I’m just having trouble finding anything atm

You know someone once told me that time was a flat circle

This is disrespectful to gas station boner pills

No fucking shit, everyone knows this, even the democrats know this, most of them are just bought and paid for

I 100% agree with the overall point that there are very bad outcomes to getting this wrong, but my point is that we are out of time. Even if we manage to pull off a general strike with mural aid and civil disobedience we could eventually all have to come together on a direction or course of action going forward and I dont see that happening and even in the best of circumstances I think the country balkanizes/otherwise dissolves after a series of geographically and ideologically independent insurgencies rise up from the chaos that’s about to happen.

I’m not trying to be a doomer, but I think the time to steer into the skid has passed

I think its too late to hope on that point, maybe if they all fall to infighting between the tech bro, christian nationalist, and groyper factions they’ll tear themselves apart but he would have to be removed very soon for the country to be salvaged into anything resembling the one we knew growing up

At this point I’m tired of people trying to give a prescription for the ‘right way to do things’

“A man who procrastinates in his choosing will inevitably have his choice made for him by circumstance.” Hunter S. Thompson

Lets not all start sucking their dicks just yet

Just like Christian’s don’t consider Christianity anything besides “the truth” American conservatives/maga/gop also don’t think their political beliefs are political, just “common sense”

My hometown is not too far from her district, I’ve known many MTGs, and I’ll tell you they are crazy as fuck and miserable people but part of their mania began with their love for kids and desire to protect them. They are delusional don’t get me wrong. But I wouldn’t be surprised if she stood her ground here and that’s good for everyone

At least Scar had a great singing voice

That’s why they are fascists, they are fucking terrified of everything and so turn to a “higher power” to make them feel safe and secure. It serves the same function as religion

The beginning of that dudes life was fucking crazy, he’d be a legendary figure in history if it weren’t for every other thing he did after WWII ended.
