    I am tired of hearing about what he “thinks” and what other people “think” about it.

    Is it too much to ask to get a motherfucker hanged?

    I mean hanged from a lamp post, like an effigy, but in gold, so as a salute to his glorious reign of prosperity and peace?

        Trump made me realize that the world really is just an upside down clown parade, nothing ever changes, just bozos replacing bozos, and it’s an absolute miracle that we haven’t offed ourselves at this point. Either willingly or like some dumb lemming just running face first into a fire- god knows we’ve already had a few mishaps and unsavory bits along the ride. We went through a lot though, but then again, back when volcanoes were our main obstacle in life, we at least knew how to live off the splendor and grace of a pristine world. Today, that splendor and grace is extinct.

        I use Lemmy as my personal notepad I hope you don’t mind.

      Sarcasm:

      That’s not very American of you. Don’t you know the real American way is to line up at voting kiosks and hold extra meaningless cry sessions whilst holding their ARs? Not actually start a fire and willinglu sit in a tunnel for years just to set a point across.

      Whenever somebody complains about the American government having guns, just remember every insurgent that fought the American military might in sandals, rags, anger or otherwise.

      Rebellion is not about winning, it’s about getting lucky enough or holding out until luck shows itself.

    The map he posted is identical to the Technate of America map from 1940. Trump has Silicon Valley tech-billionaires whispering in his ear about their wet dream where they form a council of technocrats that own and rule everything within a geographical region that has all the natural resources necessary to be self-sufficient and need minimal trade. This is all coming from egomaniacal tech bros who think they’re genius god-kings who know how to make a utopia, and Trump has just latched onto the Technate of America Map because he wants it to be his legacy.

    This is propaganda, and it’s working. This is a distraction ploy. This is being done solely to absorb your limited attention. They’re pulling a Kansas City Shuffle.

    We should ignore this, and every other instance of Trump saying anything, he’s blustering for your attention while they tear everything else apart. They are actively making moves to stop the midterms from happening, continuing to drop bombs on ceasefire areas, completely disregarding an impending hurricane for anyone outside Mar A Lago, refusing military death payouts as they send more people into yet another meat grinder they refuse to call a war for clerical reasons, and allowing disease to spread through our food supply with no regard other than profit.

    Nobody is immune to propaganda, if you’re mad about this pointless nonsense then it worked on you.

      You think they’d get to stay in Mexico? Nah, they’d get the Native American treatment. They’d be forcibly marched through hostile lands “peacefully relocated”, and forced to live in inhospitable and unworkable areas “given a reservation of land to live on.”

      Then when America wanted to expand again, America would repeatedly and unapologetically encroach on the reservations “renegotiate treaties” to claim more land. All the while, the government would be attempting to eliminate their culture by kidnapping their kids for white Americans to raise “generously re-homing needy children”

        You are absolutely correct. But I would like to point out that many of the peoples of Mexico are Native Americans. As a tribal member myself I like to remind people that we didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us.

          No shit, there are a large amount of USAmericans who don’t understand this. I have brought this up to people arguing about “Mex’cans in 'Merica”. They honestly don’t know this, and when they realize it’s true they just double-down on their bullshit. It gets in their way of trying to justify their fear of brown people.

            And frequently the idea included half this much territory again, extending into Russia. Regardless, my only point is “history is trying to rhyme”.

            I agree. Maybe less haha and more boohoo? A cosmic joke where the first sign of the destroyer is a grinning poop emoji?

            The shoehorning of a grey, sensibly passionless murdercar, into a colorful, silly, joyous game-product, is a beautiful analogy for how fascism has unwrapped its fully formed chode inside the opium blisses of colonized minds who thought they were ecstatically dancing, while actually slumped in a corner wireheading as the world dies.

      To be fair both parties are complicit.

      Edit: to whoever downvoted this, are you aware that Biden was president after Epstein died? Also wasn’t Obama president after he was originally charged? They would have had access to any information that was available.

      I’ll agree that voters on the left want to punish everyone however, and people on the right are happy to keep voting for pedos. Most politicians from both sides are shit though.

        The problem with this point of view is it ignores that while Biden and Obama did some bad things, they overall do not seem to be bad people. Again… shitty things were done. But in general, they tried to follow the rules of their job. Republicans don’t care about rules, they only care about enrichment.
