THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY

[rothschild]

Hero worship, flag worship, scientism, eugenics, politics, etc. -- it's all religion. Belief systems that have little or nothing to do with rationality.

[crash]

What are we if we don’t believe in something?

[rothschild]

Naked.

[crash]

Nope. That means you just aren’t privileged enough to find clothes..or you like it that way

[rothschild]

Figurative nakedness. Belief colors perception, providing a world that is less chaotic, which is good in the short-term: in the long-term it creates a positive feedback loop, which IMO is why societies collapse.

[crash]

Yeah… I can get around that. I’ve been in a bit of a disconnection phase in the past 12 months. Social media, mainstream press, dickheads and drama in general… it is, for the want of a less wanky term, somewhat healing…

I think if somebody broke into my house and stole all the TVs, it’d probably take me a week or so to notice.

[rothschild]

If you're not careful you may end up liking it.

[crash]

Who knows? Maybe I’ll end up….naked

[BigMark]

It doesn't even really matter, you will still be warm, not hungry and drink whatever you want. I would prefer Trump but it will make very little difference in our immediate lives than feelings.

[crash]

Yep. I feel your country and ours are on the same trajectory. Had it too good for too long. Greed overtook. It’s going to take some hard times and a quantum event in history to flip it.

It was a much better world when trump was banned from twitter.

He isn't using twitter, that is Truth Social.

[rothschild]

Yep. I feel your country and ours are on the same trajectory. Had it too good for too long. Greed overtook. It’s going to take some hard times and a quantum event in history to flip it.

Trumpism isn't a quantum event?

[rothschild]

Who knows? Maybe I’ll end up….naked

But not empty.

[BigMark]

And afraid.

[Duchess]

 I would prefer Trump 

When I post that wretched fucks comments and the things he does please know I am speaking directly to you and every person in here who shares your opinion. For example, yesterday he said he hopes our stock market crashes (that includes everyone's 401K's) all because he's butt hurt that he lost an election. He is willing to burn our country to the ground because he cannot handle that Joe Biden beat his ass. THAT'S what you support. He doesn't give a single fuck about you.

[rothschild]

The Democrats do a better job of pretending to care about the masses.

People see what mass media wants us to see unless we go outside the corporate ecosystem. The unvarnished reality is that there are no good guys when it comes to politics: there's bad, and worse, and neither one benefits common interests unless they happen to intersect with special interests. Look at everything with a critical eye and you'll see this.

We're no less fucked by Democrats than we are by Republicans. It's a question of who you want to get fucked by; unless you don't happen to like getting fucked by anyone, in which case you're shit out of luck because most peeps are too subservient to resist.

It's shocking to me what the republican party has become, and it's not just citizen republicans, it's republican lawmakers, republicans in positions of power. Some of them, including the former president, are referring to those who are incarcerated for the role they played in their assault on our Capitol, as hostages! Are you fucking kidding me. It's outrageous.

[BigMark]

[Duchess]

*gasp* How DARE you make Mr. Rogers do that!

How is that different than the MSM and the dems referring to the people rioting and burning down buildings as "Mostly Peaceful?"
