    Hopefully all those people who voted for Trump (because he’s a ‘leader’) and Musk (‘because he’s a great business man’) are starting to realize they cast their vote for a couple of petulant children who have acquired great wealth because their daddies gave them a few hundred million in starting money.

      For many of then, if they were capable of looking at the world and drawing good conclusions, they wouldn’t be conservative to begin with.

      I wouldn’t say it’s hopeless, but something as basic as “facts” and “evidence” isn’t going to be enough to reach someone who’s a fragile, terrified, ego wrapped in a thick blanket of emotions and lies.

      I think you mean liquify.

      They’re easily mixed up - liquidate means to convert assets into a form that’s easily transferrable, like cash on hand. Liquify means to convert Musk into liquid.

        monarchist (trump-loyals who don’t actually give a fuck about immigrants or anything, they just want a godking)

        all together:

        fascists - authentic nazis like bannon

        corporatists - in it for the money like musk

        monarchists - want sole rule by a strongman, hate democracy, like trump himself and his loyalists

      These guys do give info on strategy, they’re not exactly secret about it. Bannon used the term “muzzle velocity” to describe the inundation of the press with so many terrible things, We The People would not know where to start or how to organize. They’d instead be scattered without a single issue to galvanize large numbers. Promoting numbness instead of protest. “Muzzle velocity”.

      You don’t listen to Bannon, or any of the rest, because you believe them. You listen because it tells you about the admin and their intentions.

      And the Jerry Springer vibes.

      Thats an insult to Trotsky, sure he was the butch of the Red Army and led what was effectively a campaign of abject slaughter. But he was actually intelligent, a decent commander, knew how to write, and actually looked pretty decent unlike Musk who is none of those things. Seriously comparing Musk to Trotsky is like comparing Trump to Theodore Roosevelt.

    On one hand, this would be hilarious. On the other hand, the affirmation Trump would get out of exercising that kind of power over the richest man in history would be terrifying.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
