    Trump didn't cause climate change mate.

    Well for starters not everything in the world relates to Trump, so it seems unlikely that it would be directly and only about Trump and not the broader implications of capitalism's man-made extinction event we are currently in via climate change.

    But sure, Trump.

    Because capitalism is still fucking killing us and fucknuts are still arguing it's a good system.

    How is this so hard to understand?

    The tweet is literally fucking mentioning capitalism????

    And you call us obnoxious because you refuse to read and instead try to make it out like Trump is the worst thing in the world and not the global system of exploitation that is killing us all?

    Grow the fuck up mate, fucking pathetic act.

    Nothing is fucking misleading, the criticisms in the tweet are are relevant today as they were 5 years ago.

    And this isn't a news community, why you would only expect cutting edge content is wild.

    Trump is a symptom of a much broader issue, he is not the cause.

    He did not create racism or white supremacy but he's been able to take advantage of both while increasing hardships on the white populace who voted for him.

    He did not create the housing crisis. That's been an ongoing issue for decades, a problem that has gotten worse post-2008 and left unaddressed by two Democratic presidents.

    He did not create the institutionalized ponzi scheme that is the stock market but he's taken advantage of it to maximum benefit, likewise many federal level legislators.

    He did not invent judicial or government corruption but has used both to his advantage.

    He did not create ICE but he's using them to bolster hin image to his foolish followers.

    He did not create the military industrial complex or the western fossil fuel industry that uses them to do their bidding.

    He's a problem but he's far from being THE problem.
