  • How can a president in a democratic country order a dam opening, and this is left unchallenged by knowledgeable experts affected by the dam and stake holders? There seems a deep flaw in the system when it comes to the singular power of the US-president?

  • Trump started it, now is not the time to think how this is bad. You need to choose a side and act accordingly with countermeasures, which will likely escalate further.

  • hm … how far of a fall can ants survive? Is it because of their low body-mass compared to their surface area?

  • Do you know that feeling when you walk outside and suddenly have a random spiderweb-strain in your face? You need to wipe it out of your face with a hand. Maybe this was my spidery flying friend using electric fields to fly past my face.

  • I call it Sauron3 …

  • sorting for "old" reveals this 6 years old gem in this community

  • it looks … glossy

    Complex shading, looks somehow photorealistic … I like your artstyle

  • Say you are a oil producer, and frack gas and oil in Texas, an industry that supported trump. Now imagine what tariffs on oil-imports from Canada means for your business: rising prices, since gas from Canada would be less competitive. Same with logging and wood products.

  • Who bought this debt (US treasury bonds)? Mostly China, Japan, North Americans and Europeans … So they depend on the system, the circle closes. The US is the biggest importer in the world, and the years since 1945 where used for exporter nations to optimize and streamline for the American costumer. Breaking away from that system would be painful.

  • And who will remove him from office if deemed incapable? Would he be replaced by his vice president JD Vance who supports his policies?

  • random short-term daily market fluctuation vs. long term data?

    • People who want to predict the future based on random fluctuation: Impossible;
  • This tariff war inside north America is unprecedented since 1945. We will need more Data to evaluate consequences and clearly distinguish random market fluctuations from real consequences; remind me in 10 days/months/years. Capital flows might still strengthen the Dollar in the short term, as countries who depend on exporting commodities (namely oil/coal/wood) into the US will attempt to lower prices to compete with domestic US producers …

  • Guantanamo bay? Heard they will extend the "facilities" there šŸ­

  • AI is the perfect tool to generate propaganda and fake-news on a massive scale for government and secret services. Humans may live in bubbles divorced from reality because of it. It also is the perfect technology for censorship, sentiment analysis/monitoring and thought-control automation.

  • Myanmar borders China in to its north and India to its west and is currently in a civil war. This would be the perfect battlespace for a proxy war between India, US vs China.

  • Demographics will play a major role in this: Younger median age countries will have more war and conflict, while the older countries can maintain some semblance of stability. South Sudan is a great example of this mechanism: This is why I also think this war will last 30 years, like the 30 years war in Germany 1618 that killed 50%+ of its populaiton.

  • During the first cold war conflicts happened outside of the super-powers:

    • Vietnam šŸ‡»šŸ‡³ and North-Korea šŸ‡°šŸ‡µšŸ’„šŸ‡°šŸ‡·

    This time conflicts will happen in Siberia, Africa and Middle east. I also think Indonesia and Pakistan will be center of major conflicts between China, India and the USA. These conflicts will costs some millions of lives, but not touch the empires heartlands, so it will not get nuclear again imo.

  • Peter Thiel

    I think Thiel is the most "interlectual" and long term thinking of Trumps supporters. And he openly supported Trump since 2016, when Elon was still waiting & hiding. But somehow he gets less attention than Elon, I think this is his strategy to talk in the universities and not the MAGA directly.
