Really mirroring Russia I see. Trump wants his own AIDS epidemic apparently.

Not to mention the immense costs to the corpos when their sla... I mean workers drop like flies.

So, we should believe him?

And this time, the entire digital media complex is on his side: Facebook, Google, Twitter, Apple, Amazon.

And speaking of MPAA, I can't recommend the documentary "This film is not yet rated" enough. Delves into the origins of the MPAA and why a private company that is very secretive about its members has so much power in Hollywood.

Tale as old as capitalism.

I was recently invited to a face-eating party by a bunch of face-eating leopards that I know. Imagine my surprise as they ate my face!

I'd say Trump is more Yeltzin than Von Hindenburg, and the US will probably not turn into the 4th Reich, but more likely into Russia 2.0, an oligarchy heavily reliant on propaganda to keep the people in check while robbing them blind.

Also, it garnered him "friendship" with Putin. I write friendship in apostrophes because these sociopaths are incapable of grasping the actual concept. Putin is useful to Musk and vice versa. And each thinks he has the advantage over the other. Same with Musk-Trump and Trump-Putin.

Political purges are always the first step in a fascist takeover. This is just the start.

Private prisons in the US are already work camps. They will just become a lot more concentrated when all the immigrants have to be housed there. Not as a final solution of course. That comes later.

He sent photos of his hands to the editor of a satirical newspaper for decades because they joked repeatedly that he had small hands.

What's happening right now is eerily close to the "Gleichschaltung" that happened after Hitler took over Germany, basically bringing all media in line with the will of the party and the leader. It was news media then, it is social media now. Because for many people, social media is their primary news source.

"I just can't believe the face-eating leopards who constantly made face-eating gestures and promised to eat faces on day one would eat my face!"

Fascism usually mostly encompasses all the others.

I mean the future of Hollywood is apparently Birth of a Nation, so it tracks.

MAGA fans never turn on Trump. They are just temporarily confused while waiting for new orders on what to think and how to rationalize the contradictions in their heads. It's a cult.

Well, everybody but a few hundred billionaires.

Yep, they're hoping Trump will pressure the EU to get rid of their pesky consumer protections. They don't even make any profits for billionaires!

And only Roosevelt was younger at 42. In comparison, Obama was 47, Bush 54, Clinton 46 and Carter 52.

The "old fart" trend was started by Trump, who was already the oldest president at the start of his term last time. Then Biden was the oldest and now it's Trump again.
