Life became so much simpler ever since I realized like 60% of people view the world this way
did you publish your study?
It’s called “Industrial Society and Its Future”, you can’t miss it
So the thing is, it’s other countries that have been lending us the money to build and operate that military because the US generally didn’t attack its own vassals.
Overseas wars are expensive as hell and if other countries stop regularly buying treasuries, the US budget is in trouble, immediately.
Stephen Miller always looks like a guy who is about to shoot up a crowd because he’s still mad about high school.
Not his physical traits, just how he holds himself together, his body language says, “I have a gun and see my father in the face of everyone I look at.”
We should probably get putin a thermonuclear suppository. That might cure our democracy. Plus ruzzia has lots of oil!
The UK and France should train their nukes on the US. Sure, they only have around 500 combined, but that’s more than enough to destroy pretty much everything of note.
Like seriously, no one wants to threaten nuclear war but Europe has to use every threat it has against Trump.
Russia thought the same about their military, before finding out that even Ukraine could fight their military
> americans think they have power
> americans start a war
> americans lose the war against a bunch of dudes in sandy flip flopsLet’s see history repeat itself. Again.
Hitler thought the same.
I’ve always wanted to know if the US can survive if the rest of the world bands together and attack the US from all sides.
Sounds like a fast-track to the Fallout timeline.
First you need to define the word survive.
No. But the rest of the world wouldn’t survive either.
Nukes weirdly are the thing that ultimately have kept the elite on top for as long as they have. The US can, has, and does fuck with any potential movement, group, leader, or uprising anywhere that might one day threaten the wealthy, and no one can do shit about it because the oligarchs in charge of the US would rather destroy the fucking world than give up a cent.
These fuckers would 100% use nukes. If they can’t win, nobody else gets to, either!
It can, it’s 50% military, at least budget vise. It can’t survive if they detach from the world and burn all the bridges.
We don’t need to do that. We should all divest from America. Stop using American companies, stop buying their products etc.
I already do this but I’m talking about governments we should treat America how it treated Cuba for so long
In a way, it’s nice to finally have it all on the table.
The USA has operated without regard to “democracy” and the “free world” since at least Nixon, probably sooner; they’ve often opposed democracy, even while claiming the exact opposite.
So, good, mask off, cards on the table (and even this is a mask, as in there are layers of control above Steven, he’s just a mook).
Yo I think we might be living in the proverbial interesting times
Gee, I thought we lived in a world governed by laws because we realized the whole “might makes right” thing ends up being an unmitigated disaster at the end of the day.
yes but at the same time, people like Miller helped me realize that public executions made perfect sense
And then China/BRICS use their financial might to kill the dollar as reserve currency and they’ll all cry that it’s against the rules.
Might makes right is the very foundation of rightism.
Might doesn’t make right morally, but I suppose it can politically.
It cannot… that makes no sense… that’s like saying me knocking you out makes me the better chess player
If another nation wants to arrest Stephen Miller for war crimes and crimes against humanity Im pretty sure no one would stop them. Even his SS detail would be like “Go for it bro, this mini Gobbels guy sucks ass.”
They’re just after some Lebensraum. If the world lets them have this they’ll surely stop being so expansionist. /s
Hey, Americans, this is what happens when you stay silent.
Go burn down the city hall or something. Stop posting. Start doing.
But at least they saved Palestine. They did save Palestine, didn’t they…?
Yeah, right?? Kamala would have been soooo much worse!! /s, obviously.
And her unrealized gains tax over a Million would have destroyed the US Economy! We did save the economy, right? /s
Just because Trump is crazy that doesn’t make genocide support by not Trump okay suddenly. Get over it
So, your projection is that Harris would have done the same as the Trump admin? Like a “Harris Tower Hotel” in Gaza City, with the involvement of Harris’s family members in the deal?
Harris would not have stopped the genocide. There’s no genocide light. It’s either you’re complicit in genocide or not. Trump is objectively a horrible person and I would have never voted for him but that doesn’t make Harris not a genocide supporter.
I thought we were past this blue MAGA bullshit.
So… just to confirm:
At best, Harris would have been no better for the people of Palestine than trump. And trump is demonstrably worse for basically the entire rest of the world (pretty sure Harris wouldn’t be threatening war on Denmark/the EU, for example).
So… your lack of a vote (which is effectively a vote for trump when you math it out) did absolutely nothing for the people you claim to care about while actively hurting everyone else.
Good job owning the libs, I guess?
I‘m not American so I can’t vote for either of them, nor have I ever been to the US. But I have family in places where we had the pleasure of dealing with Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden, and frankly, neither of them has done us any good to say it very mildly.
People have different values, and they approach voting differently. You vote based on utilitarian ethics, but there are other moral philosophies. And ultimately utilitarianism is a deeply flawed ethical system.
Learn to be a good citizen in a pluralistic democracy. Your way is not the only way. Learn some humility.
Kamala’s Israel policy is just a less white trash version of Trump’s.
Even the Biden administration was putting pressure on Israel to stop. They should have forced them, but they didn’t. There was at least a disapproval of their actions.
Trump basically gave them the green light and said do it faster please.
Neither good, but one approach was better
get over it
What exactly?
There’s no hope for Americans and their black and white narrow minds.
Unfortunately “whatabout” is the only retort that many know.
Said by someone that’s not in their position. It’s like, “those shitty slaves in North Korea are not doing enough.” Yeah, we can’t outfight the military people.
we can’t outfight the military people
I thought that was the whole idea with having guns, so you wouldn’t get oppressed by the government. So, now there is no reason for everyone to have guns?
That’s literally what has happened in like every regime before change. Standing up to the power in place.
I’m happy I don’t have to do that, but you must if you want change.
You can also start small with a national strike.
But neither is there for Europe. We knew that the chemical weapons in Iraq were fake and we knew that there was no UN mandate for Syria and the one for Libya was stretched. We have known about Venezuela since the aircraft carrier was sent at the end of October. Now Greenland is closer to home, and we know about the social networks and the groomed politicians. What are we going to do to make a difference?
We would have to do exactly what everyone fears doing.
O started swimming there but I wasn’t even halfway there when they had bombed the country, so I swam back.
Make a better species while we are still around, one that has a tendency to disobey unjust commands.
That’s nurture not nature. We would need a different culture.
Who was supposed to save Palestinians? Genocide Kamala or Genocide Trump?
Go burn down the city hall or something.
Yeah, smart. Burn down a city hall to stop the federal government. Makes total sense.
Nothing will ever make sense to fascism enablers.
You do you. Just keep that blaming game on point. That’s all you’ve ever known.
It just seems like you have no idea how the US government functions so maybe take a step back. The country is larger than your entire continent, burning down any city hall would barely even make news in DC
And if it did it would just get the national guard deployed in your city. And the city government wouldn’t be able to do anything to help, because their office burnt down…
My City hall turned Blue in November 2025, coming for the House Rep next.
They won’t. At least, not in significant enough numbers to matter. It’s easy to type that, but quite another thing if it’s your life and livelihood on the line.
Historically, revolutions don’t happen without someone pretty organised and powerful to arrange them, like the Jacobins. And even then they usually fail.
I mean, people set the capitol on fire 6 years ago today and nothing happened but some temporary charges and subsequent pardons.
5 years ago, and that’s because those seditionists were on the side of the seditionist government
Jan 6 was a violent insurrection, but nobody set the capitol on fire.
It was on behalf of the President and his party, and it was never anywhere close to seriously threatening government power. A few individual politicians, maybe.
I guess, what’s your point?
Yeah and that “nothing happened” was because the fucking President organized it and pardoned everyone. Once again, the already powerful tend to prop up revolutions. None of the powerful here will benefit from us having a revolution unless it didnt actually change anything. No one is coming to end this. Americans better band together and figure out what they can do with some string and a pack of matches.
