  • No need for the pasagg, we’re on the same side, just smoking different brands of hopium.

    I do declare, I’m not defeatist. The disassembly of the zionist yank empire will be the single greatest victory for humankind anyone has seen in generations. I believe that makes me an optimist, as indeed it is about as hard to accomplish as treating stage IV cancers.

    For those actually stoned: the USA and Israel (their powerstructures, not all the inhabitants) are compared to being a stage IV cancer to the world in that clever metaphor).

    The 2 party system may have some educated sophisticated explanation of how it came to be, I am taking about why it sustained itself over there, while our slightly more functioning democracies quickly saw the creation of different parties across a much wider political spectrum.

    If you smoked my brand, you would see that the most divided nation on earth is called the United States, in a very similar way the Peoples Republic of China is not by, of or for said Peoples.

    Also, the fascists this time are very incompetent, so I will help start it, for it looks like that’s the only way to save the remaining part of the humans who never wanted anything to do with the rotten Mango problem.


  • The civil war is one of the most misunderstood aspects of the usa. It didn’t kick off, and it was never truly over.

    It’s a fundamental difference in ideology but somehow they wanted to continue as one nation rather than 2. It’s why there’s a 2 party system, where one party is called “the democrats” — in a democracy!

    The 2 party system is the muted continuation of the war, and they are having one last good go at pressing all the buttons in the control room.

    In a struggle between 2 ideological parties, the most fundamentalist and amoral ones tend to be more successful for the same reason the jihadists have so much control over the Middle East. One lives for the cause, while the other just wants to live life.

    Tldr; no amount of patching can ragdoll something like the usa. Only when you see a nation that ideologically divided would you name it The United States.




  • It’s almost like you can’t endlessly keep updating your DemocracyOS. The more ‘vulnerability patches’ you install, the more sluggish it gets until eventually you realise you got to throw the whole thing out and buy new hardware and switch to Linux.

    It’s the very annoying human (animal?) trait of: we rest during peace time, which includes our vigilance sadly. And that is very thing that leads us back to wartime.





  • Articles like this remind me that Lemmy is between 3 weeks to 3 months in the future as a small global conciousness.

    It is insane how slowly people in the outside world are piecing stuff together if at all. Many first need to run away from the truth and then go through their 5 stages at a snail pace, often interrupted by the next crisis already.
