this is the thing that really keeps me up at night, speaking of “danger to the rest of the world from a completely unleashed second Trump administration”
In retrospect, the legitimate criticisms in “the U.S. has always been a fucked up country” have been morphed by the shittiest leftists on the internet into a perverse indifference and nihilism. “The U.S. is already sending arms to Israel, so fuck it! War with Iran couldn’t be worse.”
Also the danger of US inaction on things like climate change
I really can't believe we're a month out and this thing is still close. Feels surreal.
When America shits the bed, the whole world has to deal with the smell, the contamination and getting new sheets
A lot of people have decided they’d rather punish Democrats than do anything that might stop needless suffering.
Twofold danger, one to the rest of the world, and the second to our own people here.
If you'll allow me to make this worse by highlighting something you already know that some either don't know or are not sufficiently weighing: Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are defense contractors. Putting them at the center of the military-industrial complex makes sci-fi dystopia a live possibility.
they’re openly talking about bombing Mexico! in public! with media present! we shouldn’t allow them access to nukes, is all i’m saying.
Remembering how pissed Trump was that we have all these nukes and nobody wanted to let him use them. And also invade Mexico for some reason. But at least he also promises to fill the streets of the US with piles of corpses and "deport" tens of millions of immigrants!
