    There’s a rough consensus that the world is transitioning to a new order, but no one really has any idea what the world is moving toward

          You’ll have to crop the sides off to get rid of the imgflip and ifunny watermarks (which is no big deal because it’d still be the same size as your version), but here ya go:

          Took me all of 30 seconds to find in a DDG image search for “cyberpunk dystopia meme.”

    I have secret footage of the Democrats’ plan to recruit Progressives to vote for them:

    In Munich, U.S. Secretary of State Marcio Rubio proposed a “new Western century,” built around a manufactured claim of shared Christian and white heritage, propped up by an elementary-school understanding of world history.

    Lol

    whatever it is, it cant be centrism. Centrism cant win elections. I’m just assuming there will be elections in the post trump order.

    Spoiler alert: they do not.

    With the dinosaurs sucking down those billionaire bribes, if we can’t remove them for new progressive YOUNGER blood, then the Democratic party is going to implode.

    Hopefully the republikkkans go first, ofc…

    The Democrats don’t seem to have a plan for 5 minutes from now, let alone for 3 or so years in the future.

    But it sounds like they’re in good company. Established politicians all over Europe seem lost by the current direction of global politics. Based on thus sticks there’s lots of vague ideals with no implementation - more than you’d even expect to see normally.

    And the Republican party is getting witlessly dragged along in the wake of those running the Trump administration. And it seems like even those ‘masterminds’ are just aggressively winging it based on the high-level objectives they outlined in Project 2025.

    Everyone is lost and stumbling around in the dark. Some might have a faded glow stick in their hand, but that’s not much help.

        Part of me is thinking AOC - D, Vance - R, Newsom - I.

        Newsom being I is the same reason Cuomo went I.

    There’s a rough consensus that the world is transitioning to a new order, but no one really has any idea what the world is moving toward.

    I think the new world order should be international democracy and the rule of law. But, laws require enforcement and that means some kind of global government entity must be created that has the authority to enact and enforce laws.

    That’s essentially the role the US has filled since the end of WWII. We have been the unofficial world police. Some people don’t want that to change, but there are a couple of reasons why it should. One, the US is unelected and unaccountable. For a state to govern legitimately, it must have the consent of the governed. Outside of NATO, and perhaps a few other countries, no consent was given to the US, nor did the US care to seek consent. Two, the US has primarily pursued our own interests, and that of our allies. That’s thuggery, not the rule of law.

    Of course, what should happen and will happen aren’t necessarily the same thing, unfortunately.
