Rule
Most middle eastern borders were drawn by imperialist powers in an effort to cause division. They need to throw those borders out to avoid constant war.
Of course you don't understand! I've lived here my whole life and am well versed in our political system. Ignorant foreigner!
I bet you see us as comparable in size to a European country. We're at the scale of the EU. California has the population of Canada. Texas is more populous than Australia. You can drive 1000 kilometers and not leave your state. Our military dwarfs everyone else's combined, and the entire world couldn't mount a successful invasion if our overseas military got snapped from existence.
We have a lot of checks in place. That's why Trump fell in the first place. Congress won on January 6th in 2021 because Trump didn't have the military. This time, he'll purge the military and every other federal office for the next four years. By then, he'll have corrupted everything too much for elections to matter.
This great nation will probably break apart in the next few decades, despite how well our military is set up to not fracture. It'll take a while for the military to disentangle enough for that to happen. Until then, there will be no civil war, only anarchy and fascism. Maybe everyone will get tired of fighting and we'll hold a constitutional congress, but I doubt it'll hold together after that.
Just remember for where you live: It can happen anywhere. Never let the rich get too strong. Social Democracy is as far right as liberalism can sustainably go.
Stop making fun of the silly dog! Here's a better representation:
The best thing they could do is break Syria apart based on ethnic lines, and create a federated alliance. They could also do the anarchic strategy, especially since the rest of the world is in chaos. Relying less on industry might be an advantage.
Trump will override whatever the GOP congress decides at the barrel of a gun. SCOTUS gave the president explicit permission to commit violence against his political enemies. Does the "Night of Long Knives" ring any bells? Trump takes direct inspiration from Hitler, including with how he plans to purge dissent.
His base is not on the side of the dissenters, and will only cheer him on. That's what ousting Kevin McCarthy was all about. Removing anyone who will say no. If they try to gain leverage, he can use the power of the state to brutally suppress them. If you know a godamn thing about project 2025, you should know that it doesn't plan to worry about what congress thinks.
That's also probably part of his tariff strategy. He knows both political parties want free trade, as global capitalism was an important part of America's geopolitical strategy. However, free trade also hurts many sectors of our economy, particularly the industry side. This has led to the antisemitic tinged hatred of (((globalists))), allowing anger from capitalism to be redirected towards the Jews. When GOP congress members speak up on behalf of capitalism or Jewish people, Trump will make a hit list of the loudest voices.
Again, I'm not joking about this. This is how Trump will become the dictator he promised to be. Checks and balances are finished, elections are finished, and neither party can do anything about it. NOBODY really has rights anymore. Even the rich are in danger if they seriously challenge Trump.
Voting is over. I'm not kidding when I say that. Trump is a fascist, and until he dies, there will be no more fair elections. We won't be able to restrain the rich with the state, as there will be no more rule of law. It's only the rule of one man now.
Even if you have total faith in liberal democracy being the best system, you need to understand that we lost it. The liberal experiment came to an end at year 248. The system is toast. The Leviathan of the state will no longer listen to us, and the social contract has been irreparably burned by the fires of fascism.
We'd need a new contract to get that system back. Trump will cause a level of change to our government that we haven't seen since FDR.
We are in anarchy at best under fascism. The rule of law is gonna breathe its last breath in January, so we better set up ways to exist without the protection of the state.
The strategy isn't to kill every rich person, but see that they undermine their popular support. Let the Democrats have no popular support. Let the rich desperately kiss the ring of the crazy old tyrant.
We aren't gonna need to kill Trump, just wait for him to die. He's done a fantastic job of ensuring that no one else stands out around him because he doesn't care about legacy. Even if he tries now, there's nobody who can take his place. The MAGA movement will fracture without him. It's what he's made sure of. We need to give the rich nothing to grab onto except him.
No more spineless Democrats. If they don't help us, let them flounder. I have no faith in the Gavin Newsoms of the world. We aren't gonna get far catering to him. We need build up independently, using an anarchist strategy of mutual aid outside of the corrupt system. We won't even need it for gaining political power, but to survive.
I'm not gonna do anything to hurt the rich personally, but I'm not about to stop anybody from doing that. Opposing violence hasn't gotten progressives much electoral political power recently. They still get branded as violent rioters as the police state expands. Their efforts then get watered down and turned into controlled opposition, despite them being the only people working to save liberal democracy.
The biggest thing we need is to build up our support systems for everyone, NGO style. Provide people healthcare, food, and other necessities. Electoral politics should be ignored until we get closer to the midterms. By then we'll know better what can and can't be done.
Then why are you celebrating the death of a bad person in the first place? That's the actual "eye for an eye" shit that's making you blind. The death itself isn't worth celebrating, only the effect of it on the world.
We are under attack dumbass. We're being parasitized by the rich! The democratic system in the US is gone with the election of Trump. What the fuck do you actually think that would look like if not this? You're either in denial, or too cowardly to actually stick to your word.
Kinda fucked up that they believe in such retributive justice, ngl 🤭
I'm not celebrating that a bad person died, but that the bad people are afraid. It's fucked up to think any justice was delivered from the death of one guy. The justice comes from how this motivates people to work towards systemic change; a world where these rich sickos are held back rather than encouraged. These rich people are not like us, and their panic is driving that truth home. Make them panic more. Let them widen the divide between us and them. Force them to show their true colors.
Simping for him is the right thing for us to do. It furthers his act of terror against the rich without spilling any blood. It doesn't matter that it's an empty threat for most of us; the more we celebrate him, the more people will take out their anger on the best targets imaginable.
If we don't do it, that lonely white man will just shoot innocent people for infamy like they've been doing. They will join the cops or vigilante fascists in lynching trans people of color like me to scratch their itch for blood. This agitation propaganda is helpful in combating the agit-prop from the right. They've been doing stochastic terrorism against children for years, so fuck them and their mother if they complain about civility.
We're in a state of nature now, with no political or economic sovereignty to speak of. We don't have any human rights thanks to these rich idiots not appreciating the sweet deal they had, so I only feel empowered when I call their murderer hot.
And drop him into a pit of lava!
Baker's chocolate, any brand.
Now I wanna play a game where Paco defeats Doug Bowser by jumping on him
It's for comedic effect. She's only fulfilling a citizen's duty to correct misinformation, nothing else!
The Deposer
The unedited version is somehow worse
Not enough dark chocolate for me.
This is justice because it makes the rich scared and likely to alienate the public even more. As they become paranoid, they'll overcorrect and make people realize that they're the enemy. They foolishly made class warfare the only avenue for change. They've created actual anarchy by executing liberal democracy for being too woke. Fucking dumbasses didn't realize how good they had it.
Suddenly, the fascist efforts to undermine Wikipedia became bipartisan
