So you live in NYC, the most liberal city in the world with one of the largest populations under your handle “gupah”, which I’m sure is your real name, with no actual photo including your “granddaughters,” with zero risk whatsoever to your family or livelihood — and think you’re balling over me.
I am a 76 year old veteran. I grew up in New York before it became a liberal shit hole, served in Vietnam, been married for 56 years, have 2 daughters and 5 grandchildren (4 of whom are currently in college). Your turn to open your kimono “Ingognito”
He's trying to remake our economy into North Korea or the former Communist Albania under Hoxha.
Seriously, though, it's not unreasonable to compare MAGA to an American version of Juche.
We outnumber those broligarchs on the playground and need to start demanding their lunch money.
We have to end their anti-human, dystopian project and eliminate them from our public life by divesting them
of their assets and outlawing most of their enterprises.
I have designed a poster for the upcoming HANDS OFF! protests on Saturday, April 5th. If anyone wants a printable file of it, please message me : ) Find out more about the protests here: https://www.mobilize.us/handsoff/
When do you think the lambda American will realize to himself, "gee this country sucks!" As opposed to "we are the greatest country in the world" ? I insist on lambda, most people on this platform are way past this realization.
The humor is acid. As is the bile in all of our guts watching the worst people in America go on the rampage and tear down a thousand things they never had the skill or farsightedness to build.
He certainly succeeded in creating the largest swamp around the White House and filling it with the richest criminals. Just in case y’all haven’t heard, the muskrat’s ai x company bought his twitter company to turn it into an AI cesspool of disinformation controlled by his grok AI. Get out now!
Taking what solace I can, this will make him very unpopular as his base becomes more uncomfortable with the 'new' economy, only so much bullshitery before even the dumbest get exasperated
The swing state voters that pushed him over the edge very specifically voted for cheaper costs. That sure seems like a silly reason! But it’s what they did.
They voted for cruelty towards "those people." Pure hate & bigotry. Notice that not one of them speaks out against it, even as we descend into the troughs of Germany in the 1930s
The absolute insanity that DT has inflicted upon Am.s in less than 3 months is beyond comprehension. He is certifiably insane & incompetent. It is appalling that Congress has not impeached both & JDV for breaking the law & irrevocably harming Americans.
Good news there is that if they eliminate the de minimis exception and tax the crap out of imports from Taiwan they’re going to kill the ad industry and the AI industry and get everyone on a 5-year phone upgrade cycle, so the oligarchs are going to have a rough time too
He does know it, he simply does not care because he is so rich he's insulated from it. So what if he loses half his wealth? He'd still have 100 billion dollars.
Right? Finally someone else has mentioned this! Practically everything on amazon comes from China. Their userbase will take a big hit. As rich as he is, there's no way these companies don't care about their bottom line.
Yeah, I wonder if he's going to be in denial like Musk, except Amazon may just boot him unlike Tesla with Musk. We shall see! These megarich corporations may have bitten off more than they can chew!
We are all about to be profoundly immiserated, in every way. This is a pivot point in history: there is that which came before, and that which will now come. Remember what came before—never let it be forgotten. Remember the names of those who brought it about . Never forget!
We should also thank Congress for forgetting entirely that they need to vote on commerce policy. Trump may be ignoring the separation of powers, but Congress is also letting him.
Does anyone have a list of which of the countries on Trumps fantasy tariff league are legit? On another post it was pointed out that a couple places had no inhabitants. A couple were military bases on islands. Some were regions of other countries that already had tariffs. One wag suggested
Eventually they will turn on the tech bros as well.
Break everything and rebuild it in their own image. No school, no health, nothing but people who, in their words, "shower after work rather than before." Everyone and everything is the enemy. But what happens after that?
And NO ONE knows where all the money has gone. ELUMP has cancelled THOUSANDS of contracts worth MILLIONS of dollars. Where is the money? Where has it gone? No one knows. Where is the fucking money?
Speaking of sociopathic tech oligarchs, I highly recommend the 3 part series from Behind The Bastards podcast focused on the Zizian cult, who are tied to the rationalist movement that influences a lot of the ideas and actions of tech barons like Musk, Thiel, Andreesen, etc. Very enlightening stuff!
Today he LIED by saying that egg prices have gone down by 50%. Also today, at my supermarket eggs are priced at $9.69 to $13.99/dozen! Stop lying to us!
If Putin had tasked Trump with bringing down America to be on the same level as Russia
- financially
- internationally
- militarily
- scientifically
- average standard of living …
Name one thing he would have done differently from what he is doing.
Welp .... The wealthiest, most powerful nation on Earth now can afford #isolationism. Can't it?
#Trump holds the cards, if he plays them right America will be his personal cash cow. THAT'S his priority. #EyesOnThePrize
We won’t forget. I don’t give a fuck if his kids and family had nothing to do with it. They want retribution? Well let’s eye for an eye this motherfucker because I fight best blind.
Long term goals. Choke out any small businesses, everyone has to sell their homes and land - mass buyout of everything and make incorporated company towns. Now we’re serfs buying goods at the company store with scrip again. (This is Yarvin’s dream)
I think the rest of the world would be well served to pretend that a series of large volcanic explosions just wiped the USA off the face of the earth, and to reorganize the planet without us.
What's that Blackwater family called again? Pretty soon the army and marines will all be sacked by Elon, and replaced by a PMC.
Milo Minderbinder was real.
They will blame it on Biden, democrats, immigrants, women, blacks, gays, Zelensky, teachers, artists, scientists, etc. These will be the targets of their ire and of their violence.
Honestly, I think he's been good for Canada. This country is more determined and unified than ever—focused on strengthening and diversifying our economy and separating ourselves from y'all looney tunes.
It's actually true. I still wish it weren't happening, but it's resulting in people giving their head a shake and knowing the decisions they need to make coming up to the end of this month.
They can join with the oil oligarchs of Russia. Is that so bad? The US-Russia non-aggression pact and the tariff-free trading between the two will usher in a new era of the United States of Soviet Russia. Right?
Some awful Boomer came into my mention to say "not all boomers" and then called me, a middle-aged person, "a child."
Could you all please go out and enjoy your pensions and all the money you saved from having affordable housing in your youth instead of lecturing us with your nonsense.
And even if all these crazy economic policies are reversed tomorrow, we will lose millions of tourists that will never visit us out of anger. We will lose millions of foreign consumers who will never buy our products again. We are done.
America has become the most dangerous rogue nation on the face of the planet, willfully destroying itself and throwing the world into an economic depression.
This is what Americans voted for. This is what the people wanted.
The argument can be made that he didn't create it but only stuck a nameplate on it and made it sort of permanent. The fact that he exploited weaknesses and inconsistencies in the legal and economic system for personal gain does not negate the existence of those weaknesses and inconsistencies.
I work in public health and all I can think about is how much work it will take to rebuild (but I probably won’t have a job anyway so good luck next wave).
I think enough is enough. We need to remove him from office or we look like total victims to the rest of the world. This is NOT who America is. He’s a gangster
Don't forget to thank a huge percentage of the American people who voted for Trump and that supported the fascist tendencies the Republican party has been showing for years.
i know you mean fuck you but as my son taught me, gullible isn't even a word in the dictionary.
lazy ass demented malignant narcissistic psychopath is having fun fucking up the lives of just about every single person in the USA, and millions more abroad.
The GOP-Musk-Trump tribe is a law-breaking, constitution-violating gang of tyrants guilty of brutalizing behavior against the American people & democracies worldwide. They have completely abandoned humanity! Their only goal is staggering self-wealth & authoritarian power. Guillotine the bastards!
I love this picture! Could we get a Garland Greene (Con Air) and Hannibal Lecter? I get a very small amount of pleasure of seeing these sociopathic narcissists portrayed in their true light. Thanks.
I mean... if a people WANTED to be a quiet backwater, sure... but not sure they should have so many nukes and a military designed to fight two near-peer wars at the same time.
Also, you could congratulate Putin for accomplishing his goal without starting a war with the US. He got us to launch a weapon of mass destruction on ourselves: Trump.
Tech oligarchs are going to love having private armies to keep them safe, no good restaurants, poverty in the streets, and all the trimmings of a declining banana republic.
Do they think they’ll have their own private research labs that will instantly find cures/treatments for diseases that they or their families may face?
Who knows. None of it makes any sense to a person with a modicum of critical thinking skills. They're trying to kill us all, not realizing it will take them out too.
Let’s never forget that this is the culmination of decades of Republicanism. Reagan helped teach the rubes to hate government. HE spoke about “States rights” in Nashoba County. He tore the solar panels off the White House. Dumbass W polished the turd of xenophobia, militarism and ignorance.
Americans have had two chances to elect an intelligent woman as president. But instead, they end up choosing the least qualified person in history: a downright stupid narcissist. Incredible. Sad.

Aix en Provence is *beautiful*!

Trump is a Russian asset. Only sensible explanation for any and all of the lunacy and cruelty.
We have to end their anti-human, dystopian project and eliminate them from our public life by divesting them
of their assets and outlawing most of their enterprises.
jamelle: yes, dumbass

it's an important distinction because it implies the bottom can fall out for him once people realize they've been had
At least the MAGA cultist don’t deny their vote was based on hatred.
Please participate in your local protest.

it’s a harm list
“look at all the places i’m hurting, all of them suffering because americans love hurting people right?”
the more on the list, the greater the optics of doing harm
the better his base likes it
they don’t care what HAPPENS

Milo Minderbinder was real.
The USA resigned its world leadership position. So be it. Let it decline.
❤️ your anger, your clear eyes and your sense of humor.
Could you all please go out and enjoy your pensions and all the money you saved from having affordable housing in your youth instead of lecturing us with your nonsense.
(I'm pretty sure the people who earned the title don't want it. See, e.g. "Karen")
The status quo ante cannot return.
The networks are broken.
This is what Americans voted for. This is what the people wanted.
Just rambling, circular nonsense interspersed with hate.
People mapped their own personal hopes onto whatever they parsed from the word salad.
He very deliberately babbled nonsense about sharks for this very purpose.
1) Praying for a few well-placed assassinations
2) Has enough wealth & resources to stay safe or leave the country

It’s the Republican Party.
They could stop him tomorrow. But they won’t
lazy ass demented malignant narcissistic psychopath is having fun fucking up the lives of just about every single person in the USA, and millions more abroad.
The brain drain is starting.
The role of world leader in science, technology, medicine is vacant now.
The status quo ante will not return.
Putin’s got what he planted
