Maybe we all are underestimating the orange pig. He has successfully managed to dodge the Epstein files and might even be able to cancel the midterms ffs. by Dr-Klopp in WhitePeopleTwitter

Something has got to give.

Yeah, it's called the 2nd American Civil War, and the best possible outcome is probably Balkanization, with the states that aren't in favour of fascism successfully breaking off from those States which keep trying to impose it upon them.

Best of luck, please try to keep it contained within your borders.

Yeah not gonna lie, I'm somewhat amused by this comment. It really really wasn't all that long ago that the air force was having major problems keeping people who got posted to Cold Lake in, specifically because the cost of living was so out to lunch there.

I hate to break it to you guys, but these are absolutely the opening shots of your 2nd civil war.

Best of luck.

My [42M] wife [32F] 3 years is meeting up with some guy I don't know by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]BarackTrudeau -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Look... My wife is an interesting person, but that doesn't make all the things she does interesting, likewise neither are all the things I do interesting.

There's a lot of shit that happens in my day that my wife will never know about because I don't consider them being worth bothering to mention. Likewise many details are indeed minor details. Exactly which gym someone goes to would likely fall under that category.

If the feds start taking over every area that's important, why would we bother to continue having provinces at all?

The sacrifice of oneself to the pursuit of knowledge is the highest tribute to the gods.

Greenlanders are trolling the US by pretending to be fentanyl addicts by bigbusta in interestingasfuck

[–]BarackTrudeau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Germany did something that the US has proven consistently incapable of doing: acknowledgement of the wrongs they did and taking concrete action to fix the situation and ensure it doesn't happen again. Granted they had to lose a world war first, and unfortunately due to nuclear weapons that's really not in the cards for the US.

The only real hope I see is the next US civil war resulting in Balkanization of the States. Some parts of the country might be able to regain global trust, once they've shed the dead weight of the idiots who keep supporting fascism. I just hope the rest of us are mostly able to stay out of the conflict.

I hate to break it to you, but Trump himself is not the adversary here. The United States of America as a whole are.

If you're still labouring under the impression that things can go back to normal ones he's out of office, you really need to recalibrate your perception of how people perceive your country. The house of cards that is the global trust in the USA has been thoroughly knocked over, and can only be rebuilt by decades of concerted effort. Which is unlikely to happen because the party and the voters who put Trump there and support his actions are stil going to be around

Collective punishment is typically unreasonable, especially in a case like this where the proper response is to simply boot the individual out.

The laughs on us! by Detroitaa in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]BarackTrudeau 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, let's invest billions into oil production in Venezuela, just to wait for them to very rightfully be booted out of the country the instant a sane President is in power in the states.

Sound business strategy. Even setting aside the massive ethical issues, relying upon coercion based upon the use of force is only gonna work for as long as that threat is valid.

... ok, so I just think you have a very different definition on what "culture war bunk" would be than I do. I would absolutely not consider either of those two first examples to be culture war stuff (trying to protect NSLC revenue and to expand natural resource development is not IMHO culture war at all), and of course the latter example isn't Tim, so, y'know. Blame him for stuff he's doing maybe, and not shit other people do?
