The cowardice of it being an unsigned letter is almost the most galling part. Sniveling authoritarian cowards

Do you have relevant advice for the former one?

Amen! Glad to see people appreciating and sharing "tax wealth, not work"!

Why does posse comitatus not apply here? Genuinely confused

I do? I'm saying that there's no reason for the world to band together and implement tariffs on us. Low volume would be another reason not to, but we do export a non-negligible amount worldwide. Most to NA, but over 300B to EU last year

Because, as we're experiencing, tariffs are a regressive tax on your own populace and hurt the most vulnerable. Also, they don't have to. We're pissing off enough regular people that they're voluntarily buying made-anywhere-but-USA. Lastly, why provoke an idiot with a huge military?

They can and will dismantle American power just by not buying our debt and then supporting a chamge in the world's reserve currency. Trump is screwing us for generations

Jackboots back in fashion

100%. Also a hatchet man. He's brought in, wrecks shit on purpose, gets "kicked out", profits immensely. Now admin can roll things back 5-10% to placate the plebes and blame Musk who everyone already hates for their life being worse. That said, a lot of people would nonperformatively tell him to go fuck himself. Just don't mistake it as anyone being on your side

5 letters

Oh hey, a clerical error that got fixed without undue criminalization. 30 people voted that shouldn't have, and won't anymore. Priority number one

Hatchet men abound

My mobile spelling has gotten to be garbage because my phone keyboard autocorrects Sometimes and I've gotten lazy about Swype/deleting mid-word mistakes. My pen/paper and also physical keyboard spelling remains persnickety

Absolutely. It makes me crazy that people can't imagine what the consequences of American isolation will be. We built this position and lifestyle over generations, and every single other administration including his was smart enough not to fuck with it

There are a few podcasts like that I think. Notably Hello from the Magic tavern. A sitcom, even animated, would be pretty cool!

This is the trend that makes me genuinely worry that we may not avoid neofeudalism. Right now, joe schmoe can at least participate in the Market, but when that goes away, what hope do we (and capitalism in general) have except unions?

"Don't just be an asshole, be a coward too. We know who we answer to and cigars will be provided"

This is what we get for being bad at math (and critical thinking)

I believe it too. What a shit time for American materiel support to collapse

Ok, I'm impressed at how much biting criticism the artist fit Into such a specific niche reference. I also tried the Danish as first seat in a high school match and got rocked even without following the Elon line. Should've stuck to something more traditional like g4
