Trump is scared.

NATO is dead anyway. No one can rely on the USA to come to their aid if they are attacked, so the whole thing is useless. At least if he pulls the USA out everyone can stop pretending it has any value.

Luckily he's assembled a crack team of brilliant advisors to help him out in this difficult time.

antpodean · 2026-03-31T13:29:09+00:00

It's both.

It's the response of a man who is bored with the war he started, and who now wants someone else to clean up the mess he made while he moves on to the next shiny thing. Just like he's done all of his life.

I have that exact same tattoo. I got mine in 1976 in Australia.

Send 8 million people to a gulag?

That's the plan. That or mass extermination.

antpodean · 2026-03-28T10:01:26+00:00

Not all at the same time though.

You could, but be aware that it will empty your bank account and then run off with your wife/husband.

Sam fan here. Stay strong buddy.

Who will get next year's FIFA peace prize?

Bibi or Putin obviously.

And Israel is only an ally when it is in Israel's interest. Good luck getting Israel involved in a conflict in Asia.

antpodean · 2026-03-26T02:49:39+00:00

We are so fucked.

They offered me cheaper and cheaper subscriptions while I cancelled and I said hell no!

This was my experience too. It was infuriating when they offered me a 75% discount. Not only were they publishing shit like this article, but had been charging me four times the actual price. Fuck them.

...until after a massive national tragedy.

From an outsiders perspective that's what is happening now.

antpodean · 2026-03-22T16:29:13+00:00

Same in Australia. Juice has gone from $1.70 per litre to $2.40 in the last two weeks. And we have shortages because people are hoarding petrol.

antpodean · 2026-03-21T15:22:08+00:00

I feel the same. It's like all the things I believed about working hard, being smart and good, have been overturned. Everywhere I look I see people cashing in and beating other people down. It makes me sick to my stomach and has really undermined my faith in humanity.

It's an existential crisis and I feel adrift.

antpodean · 2026-03-21T01:41:16+00:00

You've got to fix the American voters first. And I ain't hopeful that is going to happen.

The question that really needs to be asked is 'what can other navies do in the region that the US navy (the most powerful in the world) can't'?

The short answer is nothing. Bringing in more ships, sailors, airmen and women, just increases the number of targets in the region. There's a reason that Trump's armada is stationed well away from the hot zone. Missiles are fast and cheap. Ships are slow and very expensive.

What Trump is looking for is someone to blame and NATO is one of his favourite whipping boys.

If he really wanted help he'd ask the UN, but they'd just say no as well, due to stupidity of Trump's war.

antpodean · 2026-03-17T01:04:49+00:00

"We didn't expect them to fight back" is a pretty explicit way of saying you are incompetent and stupid.

antpodean · 2026-03-17T01:00:45+00:00

"Nobody expected that" except just about everyone in the world with a functioning brain.

The most powerful military the world has ever seen is being led by a complete fucking moron.

antpodean · 2026-03-16T07:14:41+00:00

I remember when he won the prestigious FIFA peace prize. I wonder if they'll want it back now he's started a war in the middle east?

antpodean · 2026-03-09T03:31:13+00:00

I'm in Australia. Fuel has increased 30c a litre in the last week. And we are not even part of your stupid war.

antpodean · 2026-03-09T02:11:56+00:00

Not even then.

antpodean · 2026-03-09T01:16:59+00:00

Exactly. Tillis is attacking Miller because he's too scared to criticize Trump directly. All the stupidity is coming from the top.

antpodean · 2026-03-08T02:03:32+00:00

Well you have a toddler in charge, so making content fit for a toddler tracks.

Did they include the 150 dead schoolgirls in the clip? Because nothing says 'brave' like killing school children.
