But would they? I'm sure they'd disagree but I don't think they're gonna rise up and try to fight against the military. We'd get steam rolled and the world would just sit and watch. Sure they'd be mad, but in the end, the us military is #1 without any actual competitors other than China who is fixated on Taiwan and at the same time hates us anyway.

So how likely do you think it is the US comes back from this? Like it honestly does look like the collapse of western civilization is happening right now. Europe is almost in all out war with Russia and even if that doesn't happen, more and more countries over there are electing the far right. America is about to invade all of its allies and even if they don't do it, their diplomatic reputation has been completely shattered. No matter what way you look at it, this does seem like the end of western civilization. What comes after I think is already known. It will be the silicon valley take over plus whatever project 2025 is.

Well, fuck your politicians for being useless cunts. They should have seen this coming. We all did. We knew he was gonna win and to think he of all people would respect the position he is in is ludicrous. Now I'm gonna get invaded or have my economy crashed at best.

This is how I see it. My nature is conservative but I constantly see how conservative politicians are the worst and most evil people in our society. They take my naturally fearful and anxious nature and attempt to twist it into anger and hate so that I vote for them. But the mask is lifted at this point. I honestly don't know what I believe in anymore or what to think other than that any conservative politician is going to be at best a useful idiot for some billionaire and at at worst a dangerous power hungry narcissist committed to the destruction of any law or person that stands against him. Truly awful people. Not to say liberals are perfect, but at least there is some sense of duty in what they do. They at least want to make things better. I don't always agree with them, but i trust them. I don't trust conservatives anymore and don't know why I ever did.

How is it that Trump is able to so easily dance circles around lawyers and politicians and move around the law without actually breaking it? How are career politicians outmaneuvered by this guy? What the fuck are you guys paying them for? I feel like people who's whole career has been politics or law should know how to beat this guy. Or at least been able to stop him somehow at some point along the way. It's almost as if they let him become president because even the people who are supposed to be opposed to him benefit from him in some way or their benefactors do.

Probably true.

That and there's probably a lot of other ways you have made purchases without even knowing. My point is that don't beat yourself up over not doing a full boycott. The fact that you're doing what you're doing will have an impact pretty big already. If enough people are like you, even if they aren't perfect, will have a huge impact.

Pretty sure the real president is actually thiel. The whole putin idea is just laziness.

[–] Devanismyname@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

He knew he couldn't. Why is anyone surprised by this?
