Probably not as long as Israel remains firmly fascist. Trump and most of the GOP are sociopaths/psychopaths. I doubt most of them actually believe the white supremacism and racism they peddle. It’s a means of class warfare to divide and conquer — to attain and maintain power. Though, as we all know, the out groups are fluid and can change at the whim of madmen.

At this point I’m not even convinced Hitler or the Nazi senior leadership were as — at least, initially — anti-Jewish as they were sociopaths/psychopaths utilizing the pre-existing anti-Jewish sentiment to attain power. Though, there is the question whether acting racist and violently crushing all opposition reaches a point where they themselves either believe it, or wouldn’t dare voice the truth simply out of fear of being subject to the same violence they’ve used on others.

Under the Biden administration, ICE records show the agency deployed Clearview widely, even as officials there charged with monitoring the technology were in the dark about how it was being used and by whom.

This is the direct path from neoliberalism/conservatism to fascism that some of us have been warning about for decades.

Sure, the D’s are better than the lowest bar known to man — mentally ill fascists and con artists — but fascism may have never succeeded without their own corruption, authoritarianism, and fealty to the plutocracy. They’ve spent decades building the most pervasive surveillance apparatus in history, collecting data from most computers on the planet, about most of the human population, and are doing nothing as the keys to the kingdom are handed to the Nazis.

False. Putin is president.

You forgot the part where foreign governments, corporations, and consumers actively divert trillions of dollars of revenue and investments away from the US.

Removing the tariffs won’t remove the distrust or risk, and if the US is somehow able to have legitimate elections again, removing Trump won’t either. The world now considers a significant portion of the American populace mentally-ill. It would take generations to fix that damage, if ever.

Why isn’t this a lifetime ban? If you engage in fraud or any other crime of corruption, abuse of power, etc, you shouldn’t be allowed to be a part of the government again for life.

You think billionaires care about a rounding error? They’re still rich enough to buy most governments, and the mere concept of not being able to afford islands, mansions on every continent, and a private jet to fly between them is still non-existent.

It’s the bottom 99% who have to worry.

It’s probably like this downfall scene, except with dementia and pants-shitting.

Honestly I’d bet the “too stressed to care” make up only a few % of the middle 33%, and that the middle is more representative of a different kind of ignorance. I’m talking about the people who were born reasonably comfortable and never found history, science, or politics interesting. People who devote most of their time and personality to things like sportsball, video games, or social media. People who choose to watch bottom-barrel reality tv unironically. Basically the “centrists” who don’t really know how anything works, ignorant of pretty much everything outside their niche education or profession, whatever’s spoon fed to them, and the mainstream media.

THIS IS WORSE BECAUSE A DEMONCRAT DID IT!!!

This is the bad place.

You thought you were gonna get star trek? PSYCH! You get fascist dystopia!

Fascist Is as fascist does

It’s a move to spur domestic manufacturing and move the US to Autarky — straight out of Hitler’s playbook; albeit an incompetent attempt because he’s a mentally challenged degenerate.

Autarky isn’t bad — covid highlighted the weaknesses that capitalism and globalism created for every economy — but Trumps goals are not risk mitigation or “national security”, and he certainly intends for it to enable imperialist wars and conquests. The fact is the allies won WW2 largely because of US manufacturing capacity (Europes was destroyed). China could take Taiwan tomorrow and the world would have to let them as we are entirely reliant on Chinese manufacturing; they could cripple us if they halted exports.

Perjury charge

Lol good one

This is one of the greatest headlines in the history of tech journalism.

The corporate plutocracy couldn’t have come as far as they have with Trump if the manufactured opposition in the D party weren’t actively running counter intelligence on progressives like Bernie et al.

Americans should remember that, and hold ALL criminally corrupt con artists, betraying their people and country for personal financial gain across all branches of government, accountable.

Reddit argues handing over the information will create a chill among other users, explaining in its court filings that “anonymity is not just a user preference but a defining feature of Reddit’s business model and identity.”

Bullshit. They have no problem banning users for specific keywords, like “Luigi”, and anyone who upvotes those posts/comments. They just want to use the platform as their own propaganda machine, instead of the states propaganda machine.

Just another day under capitalism, and governments bought and paid for by capitalists.

If you don’t have a home you are, by definition, homeless… A car is not a home, and living out of one should never be normalized.

Manufactured opposition, performing one of the most crucial tasks to facilitate the fascist coup.

I’d pirate a data center if I could
