To billionaires like Trump and his kin, these are not tranquil times. Even without the threat or presence of violence, the country's severe equity imbalance means that if a popular & committed politician focuses on the middle & lower class, they could lose most they've grifted.
Pure capitalism is justifying spending billions to design a computer program that can seemingly tweet autonomously, while ignoring the human costs of indigenous inequality or poverty.
Can AI help resolve humanity's current issues? Absolutely. Not like this.
How many adults need to be in the room to prevent the RFK and Trump toddlers from pushing too many big red buttons on the American economy and health at once? Even Bart Simpson had better control and compassion than this, and he was literally written as an impulsive little asshole.
Oct 12, 1945: Desmond Doss becomes the first conscientious objector to receive the US Medal of Honor, believing it a sin to take a life. Ignoring his draft deferment, Doss became a field medic during WW2 & saved at least 75 men while taking injuries himself.
Mike Johnson's desperate attempts to label #NoKings as hating America: the most recent distraction from his complete lack of humanity and control over the MAGA fanaticism crashing down around him.
When Biden grew older, he talked softer and took more naps. While Trump gets older, his delusions convince him to send military units against American children and journalists.
Anyone equating the two simply doesn't have a moral compass or soul.
Even seemingly loyalist troops to Trump in the military have a line in the sand, which usually ends at their wallet. In this, they're cut from the same mold as their would-be king, has-been felon.
Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.
They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.
James successfully prosecuted Trump of millions in fraud. Trump's second try at prosecuting James is for $16k, and anyone who refuses the case is fired. Emperor Nero is getting desperate.
You're watching an old man rapidly lose his mental capacity while presiding over the world's most dangerous military. A pathological liar, Trump's mind no longer has the guard rails of reason to sane-wash his claims.
None of his enablers push back, choosing profit or power over Americans' safety.
Oct 11, 2002: President Bush convinces Congress to grant him military powers & invade Iraq, a war later proven to have started under false pretense of weapons of mass destruction.
Estimates range from 100k-500k Iraqis being killed as a result.
Now, it's Trump lying about & attacking America. Wtf.
There are entire American citizen communities that have experienced for decades, centuries, what white Americans are just now experiencing for the first time.
Police brutality? Financial abuse? Medical negligence? Officials lying about you without consequence?
The best way to contain American influence abroad is to sow division within the populace. With Progressive fighting only Conservatives, there's still energy to contain Putin.
Get either to also fight amongst "their own" extremists, suddenly Putin (and China) have the world stage to themselves.
is it not weird that every day there’s a new video of anonymous masked men having the time of their lives beating/shooting/disappearing people and the dem response from the top down is “republicans want to double your health insurance premiums”
- MTG agrees with Democrats. - Democrats are defending Bolton. - NRA isn't defending against tyranny. - Progressives want law & order. - Libertarians want federal intrusion. - Naked children are terrorists. - Armed masked kidnappers are heroes. - Transparency is hiding evidence.
