  • Thats a logistical component I didn’t consider nor do I know what the mechanisms would be, extreme circumstances could lead to all sorts of things, but I also think the GOP would try to keep momentum by rolling with Vance.

  • For real, we’re in a tight spot here, Trump kicking the bucket before the election would probably be the best case scenario as it would no doubt reduce turnout among the GOP base and Kamala would wipe the floor with Vance. I’m terrified he’ll either actually win or otherwise steal the election through the court and then croak. We might get a civil war either way but it would somehow be even worse with Vance at the helm.

  • I was ready to shit all over the New York Times because I didn’t think they’d actual talk about Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin/Mencius Moldbug but I’ll be goddamned they proved me wrong. I hope this gets disseminated in time, as dangerous as Trump and his folllowers are his most recent behavior showcases that at minimum the threat he personally poses has a time limit on it. Vance gaining control after Trump kicks the bucket will usher in an even more hellish corpo-cyberpunk future for all of us

  • I’m not a big gambler but every now and again I’ll see a points spread of a football game that seems ridiculous on its face and will put down $25-$100, makes watching a game I wouldn’t otherwise care about fun. But I never bet on a game I actually care about the outcome of, afraid I’ll jinx it and will lose twice. This the only reason why I’m not hammering Harris to win right now

  • I don’t want to give any sovcits any credit at all but trumps recent rhetoric is so openly authoritarian that some of them might have actually realized the face eating leopard is a threat to them too

    Edit: I can’t believe I just thought of this, but these could also be folks that hopes to start a civil war because they either believe it’s inevitable, are obsessed with the Turner Diaries, or both.

  • I disagree with the second point becuase Robert Evans and his Cool Zone Media podcast network and other notable Cracked alum Cody Johnston and Katy Stoll are both producing great content that does just that, but they are niche and the folks that need to listent to them most will dismiss their mediums and youth.

    Highly reccomend Evans's 100% free audiobook The War on Everyone

  • If he just died before the election that’s still best case scenario. Vance would flop against Harris and the coup attempts would have a bit less juice and fervor, I would hope. I don’t even know if the GOP could hold together if that happened
