  • in my opinion, at this point of history, FAST is inherently detrimental. Only those with privilege and resources are able to adapt to rapid changes and reap their benefits, while the rest are left behind.

  • Things like requesting for emotional value in a serious conversation is such an unsophisticated tactic in arguments, just hard to believe it’s planned by a long time blogger and book writer who should be good at words.

  • I think this gives this office too much credits.

    The whole thing seems more spontaneous dysfunction than planned, Vance overplaying his troll role, and Rubio did not show up for job.

    This is obviously aligned with their long term vision regardless, but I don’t think they were planning to hit the gas at that day.

  • His base doesn’t care. Maybe average people in US are having such a good life that they can ignore this and continue to get food on the table for their kids.

    On the other end of world in rural Russia, people send young man to battle, so their death benefit payment can bring economic boom for the whole village.

  • The desire for keeping “good old times” of pax-America are exactly what Trump is leveraging to extract more juice out of Europe and others.

    Time to get out of this abusive relationship, and face the challenges in real life.

  • not so much for America

    Not necessarily, a more equal world and no-longer-exceptional America would give more common people an opportunity to better see the weakness in the political and redistribution system, and creating opportunities for fundamental change. That can be a painful process but for the long term good.

  • Thanks for sharing this experience.

    One mistake of East Germany (and Russia and China) was that their basic education is not that bad so people are able to figure out things don’t add up. America might be immune to this issue as it’s advancing to authoritarian.

    Plus there are ultra rich class to assist and fine tune the brainwash technology to micro targeting each individual ( the “self selected“ influencers are not selected by yourself after all)

  • The post rightly points out that Citizen United is one of the cornerstones of contemporary American politics and the continued success of Trumpism.

    Regrettably, when a law is enacted to make existing laws meaningless, there appears to be no legal path to undo it.

  • I can vaguely remember what eggs used to cost

    If trump keep “creating history” for another 50 days like he has been doing for the first 50 days so far, I surely wont remember what an egg look like.

    Even some of my friends from China and Russia are taken aback by the level of vulnerability and obedience Americans seem to have towards brainwashing techniques.
