any knowledge I could obtain, it is relative. any experience I could have, it is just one of many. I am thereby reduced to pure subjectivity; I am forbidden access to reality proper. reality is reserved for the consensus. and the consensus is informed by the internet. the internet was a mistake.

trump is just AI nixon. i get it now

is it just me or is Scott Bessent clearly under duress every single time I see him

funding the CDC is woke. they need to dump all their bioweapon samples unrefrigerated in the nearest lake and/or postbox, as this will save taxpayers money somehow

NYT, sometime in the near future: “Trump ordered the DOJ to shut down the NYT ‘by any means necessary’. But several constitutional scholars say it would be against the law - here’s why.”

I just realized that their greed is greater than their malice. the plan all along was to 1) tariff everything across the board, then 2) have industries come and grovel one by one, and finally 3) profit off of call options bought right before announcing the suspension of tariffs for that industry.

the citizens yearn for forced conscription into meat-grinder style trench warfare

the accelerationist in me is disappointed that Bessent didn’t let Trump instantaneously collapse the entire world economy, as was his plan

I gotta gtfo of here. i’m gonna die in this hellhole

can he just order the nuking of NYC already so we can get him out

The Matrix but the inside of the matrix is actual hell for some reason

if the reactionary right’s identity is founded on being anti-left… shouldn’t we just switch over to all the traditional right wing talking points? i.e. if we collectively started saying “we want lower taxes on the rich,” they might raise taxes just to spite us? reverse psychology

we could have had socialism with american characteristics. instead we got capitalism with idiot characteristics

hot take: to be incorrect is immoral. to willfully spread information you know to be incorrect is evil.

America taking over Greenland is a foolish idea. America destroying its relationship with Canada is utter idiocy. America applying tariffs and engaging in trade wars with neighbors is economic nonsense. A lunatic is holding America hostage and his enablers are making fools of themselves.

can someone tell me how gutting the department of education helps them achieve their ultimate goal of making femboys illegal

government handouts?? sounds like communism to me. these greedy farmers just sit on their ass all year and get free money from the government to do drugs and shout at immigrants. Elon, cancel this wasteful DEI spending!!

trump: I am going to drown hundreds of puppies in various pools filled with the impure blood of nonwhite orphans. msm: the trump admin’s stated policy objectives indicate a marked shift away from the more traditional pro-puppy, pro-orphan policy direction of the past. how will this affect the dow?

up til now the economy was more/less independent of who was president. sure, reps funneled money to the rich while dems did the opposite, but still, regular periodic investments in the S&P 500 had a “guaranteed” ROI. now that a narcissistic schizo has usurped dictatorial control, all bets are off.

willingly and knowingly crafting and propagating logically fallacious arguments is a moral failing and should be persecuted legally. people convicted of willful stupidity should be imprisoned. they can have their sentences commuted if they pass a test on the writings of Arendt and Bonhoeffer.

they twist the narrative to put the words in their supporters’ mouths that their opposition will want to say about them in the near future. they delegitimize FUTURE critical dissent. “but the trumpists were saying the same things about biden!” they thereby create the illusion of both-sidesism.

true capitalism has never been tried

I know this is a long shot but. if every single US financial institution issued a joint statement saying “the economy is heading into a recession specifically because of Trump’s policies,” and posted it on their home pages… we might have the ammunition we need to turn his base against him

remember, this isn’t a coup. it’s a “special political operation”

communism is when no iphone democracy is when mcdonalds simple as, lads. simple as

my retirement funds are mostly in gold, euros, and USD short ETFs at this point. let it burn, idgaf anymore

news in america: you will have to drink shit in water. we are going to end education. we will deport you for having the wrong opinion news in any other country:

if the stock market crashes by 99%, then maybe canada could annex us. that would be nice

meaning derives from those around us who we want to support and care for. meaning is indexed with respect to the humans we know and love. all of our actions are in pursuit of meaning. isolation and forced separation is a disease. the internet separated us for profit. the internet was a mistake.
