Ding Dong.....the US Politics Thread (Part 2)

They are not even arguing that though. It is all complaints about “open borders”

One of the more frustrating parts of the Trump era is after he says something dumb, there is furious work done in the background to retcon it into something that can be argued and everyone then goes out and for days after stays perfectly on the new message while complaining that people are making things up about Trump. The only thing that ever stops that is when Trump himself rejects the message sanitation work people had done for him. But that isnt even what is happening here. There is a world where everyone takes Trump’s comments and spins it into an issues of second order effects about immigration where it turns native born people into unamericans. But they arent even doing that. They are still just pretending that he is a foreigner who came in across an unmanned border

Taking that to the extreme, how many Americans actually are?

The answer is when it suits without stating the obvious.

According to stories, the guy in the cybertruck was an elite soldier.

If that’s true, I seriously question the USA army training. Bad taste maybe but I could do better in a mini. Petrol and shit fireworks? Yeah, they’re the weapons of a terrorist.

I haven’t got a clue what his beef is, but the Tesla truck in front of Trump tower suggests he has problems with Musk and Trump. At that point a mini might not quite be making the point he intended?

Also, if he was a trained elite soldier and he did not use enough explosives to generate more damage, perhaps that’s because he intended it that way?

It’s literally being a suicide bomber that fails its main mission. Yeah he died but he did no serious damage. Hurt a few people but very much a Darwin Award winner.

If his intent was to do serious damage, then yes, he didn’t get too far with that.

Aside from the fact that the infant size is restricted more by the rate of placental growth, I find it rather distasteful that he merely regards women as baby making factories, to be hacked open when they can’t produce a large enough product.

I’m kind of torn between social media being a complete shit house or a wonderful platform where fuckwits can literally show the world how utterly dumb they really are.

More a platform where complete fuckwits can impose their complete fuckwittery on the rest of the world.

Social media is a net minus for the world at this point. Few people might be slightly better informed, many more get massively disinformed or misinformed.

Not to mention, information aspect aside it simply doesn’t seem to do us any good neurologically/psychologically.

The one thing social media have been successful in is to propagate stupidity, intolerance, superficiality and hatred to large sections of the populace worldwide.

I don’t think we get to such a critical point without their corrosive effect.
