We’re still months away from Turd-day. He will go through at least 17 cronies within the first 1 year.

There’s ever so many things to not look forward to!

The media is in overdrive performing a neoliberal whitewash — trying to frame “the left” as the reason for center-right neoliberalisms failure — so they can to serve the fascist status quo and push the Overton window to the right.

I’d say the only thing that’s different is the volume and blatantness of the corruption. Selling out the country for profit is always criminal, and it’s so bad they don’t even need to hide it anymore; decades of legalized corruption, putting corporations first, and zero consequences created the conditions for Trump to go mask off .

This is why Liberals doomed America to fascism.

Wealth inequality is worse today than it was during the gilded age a century ago, and you still believe that the Dem’s efforts were good enough to counteract 50 years of neoliberalism; the very conditions establishment democrats helped create. Liberals stuck their head in the sand and promised 4 more years of drowning, so voters chose the fascist who promised to tear it all apart.

The irony is that corporate America and wealthy individuals have been doing this for several decades, and you’re acting like it just started! 50 years of neoliberalism created the conditions for fascism to succeed.

The lefts populism is best for 99% of the people, but worse for the wealthiest 1%, and that’s why it’ll never happen.

The plutocracy would prefer the lies and mental illness of right wing populism. A fascist dictatorship and boogeymen to keep the people in line, is better than the risk of being marginally less wealthy.

Voters have shifted right because they’re hurting, and the Dems promised 4 more years of the same. Trump promised to remove the elites and actively tear the country they created apart. That’s why they voted for him. The fact that’s it’s a lie and they’re stupid to believe it doesn’t matter. Telling people the economy is doing great while they are poorer than they were 4 years ago pushes them away.

Liberals lost ~15 million former voters and handed America to a fascist dictator, and all they’ve done is blame the left and stick their head in the sand, as though the population didn’t just vote to tear the status quo apart. They did the same thing in 2016. They won’t get another chance, and they still don’t understand that.

Yes. He said it and he meant it.

At least ~70 million people are actually mentally ill. Don’t bother trying to rationalize their actions because that will make you insane.

Because his tax cuts and numerous policies will facilitate an even greater transfer of wealth to the richest 1%.

They can commit all crimes harder and simply blame immigrants or the left while they throw shit at the fan.

At this point the EU should just fucking seize all US assets within their borders, expel the US from NATO, and ramp up military investment. Trumps presence is only a noose around the EU.

This is depressingly funny. The irony is that everyone hates a know-it-all, and finds them insufferable, but they’re drawn to the know-nothing who promises the world, and fails to deliver the most basic of promises…

You think fascists aren’t going to criminalize unions? The constitution, rule of law, precedent… None of these arbitrary barriers mean anything to tyrants, especially tyrants with no checks ave balances; commanding the most advanced war machine in history.

All of this has happened before, and ~100 million people were murdered or killed. That’s the equivalent of 400-500 million today. Europe and Asia were leveled. Nobody had nukes until the final 2 months, and those were all of the nukes in existence. Today there are several thousand.

Liberals, man. Straight delusional, not far behind MAGA.

“This piece of paper says you can’t do this, fascist executioner”

The East/West Coast should hold an emergency election and just fucking annex themselves from the red states. Trump can rule the USoChristianTalibanistan. Offer asylum to all the immigrants so they have no-one to work the farms and the locals have to work in forced labor camps. I give Talibanistan 6 months before they collapse.

There is, but the solution comes before the indoctrination. It’s much easier to vaccinate and inoculate before being infected with the mental illness. After that, the best defense really is just a bullet. You can’t operate a functional democracy when the majority of the population are demented and actively working to tear it apart.

I’ve had “America will become a Christian Nationalist dictatorship” on my bingo card since shortly after 9/11.

Never saw the Christian-Nationalist Ex-KGB-Agent-Alliance coming until 2016 though. Even when Romney was calling out Russia I was like WTF. Turns out he had inside intel.

No no no. You just have to remember the cardinal rule of fascism! Everything holds a quantum superposition of right and wrong until you choose to disagree with it… for some reason. Please refer to the following MAGA pseudo-code:

if (woke || baddie) {
   return "communist cancel culture"
} else {
   return "freedom boycott"
}

Math, despite being a great skill to have, is not mandatory for a large volume of programming roles. It may hurt you in some interviews but interviews are a fucking crap shoot / shit metric either way. Computers do most of the math, so you don’t have to!

Source: I’m dyslexic, suffered from dyscalculia and migraines until I was allowed to use a calculator, and barely passed high school math. No degree. No bootcamp. 8 years as a dev.

I’ve also excelled in multiple roles where colleagues were math or CS PHD’s, and become the senior or go-to on more projects than not. The key part is to know your strengths. I’m never gonna accept a role developing accounting software, or anything that would require me to code complex math on a regular basis. You’d be surprised how far you can get with Google.

Yes, my comment was based on historical facts and indicators. It wasn’t a hypothetical.

This is perfect. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you are the perfect example of why America just voted for fascist dictatorship — you still believe MAGA’s are the problem, completely ignorant of the fact that you, your beliefs, and your support for money-is-speech corporate-owned politics places you in the upper percentiles of most-to-blame voters; the older and better educated you are, the more you are to blame. If you’ve voted R your whole life and are 50+, you’re like top 5-10% responsible.

Now you’ll consider yourself a Democrat, and support your conservative-indoctrinated idea of “moderate” politics, shifting the already center-right Democrats and Overton window even farther right, while supporting the fallacy that non-profit healthcare, education etc are “radical leftist” beliefs, instead of “what the rest of our allies have had for 50-100 years”… you’ll solidify the fascist dictatorship over the next 10-20 years, and you’ll do it all, while blaming “the left” — the very people who have been warning that “this would lead to fascism and extremism” for decades.

If I were born in America, I’d probably have ended up less educated and be some tankie communist or MAGA fascist myself because of fellow cotizens just like you. I’ve never felt better to be Australian, and born under the umbrella of a far more stable, compassionate, governance; despite conservatism/neoliberalisms best efforts to the contrary.
