    Two Hitler salutes on stage at the US Presidential Inauguration

    It's amazing how easily it was for them to make that go away. Disturbing how nobody fucking cares.

    Two recorded salutes. Like, we have it on video from multiple sources.
    And yet, he gets to have the fucking ADL run cover for him. It's disgusting what you get away with if you're rich enough to either make people eat their words, or they self-censor to avoid possible fallout.

    The people who care, and there are millions of them, mostly already held the appropriate opinion of them.

    It's amazing how many don't care, but again we already knew they were shit people and it isn't a surprise that those people are entirely okay with it until they are personally affected by it all (specifically their wallet)

    What's amazing is how many millions of people aren't offing themselves due to the futility of holding onto their beliefs after decades of trying to advocate for a better world

    Elon Musk again showing why we should release the Epstein Files, snatch up all the billionaires in the country, and either send them down the ocean via submarine or just plain old drop them off in some deserted island blindfolded and let them kill themselves off.

    Trump, Musk and the rest of the epstein class are the chosen representatives of conservatives. They accurately represent all conservatives. Conservatives are the enemy within.

    Conservatism is a brain defect. It is the lack of internal moral compass. Therefore the appeal of external power structures that supposedly uphold the morals. They understand that morals are important for societal cohesion but cannot comprehend how morals are possible without external powers enforcing it. And then of course just fingers crossed that that external power -- dear Leader, the church, God -- is benevolent. Moreover, playing this system is seen as cleverness, as "it's part of the rules", therefore morally okay. Moreover, they think that anyone opposing external power structures as a surrogate for moral compass actually is trying to abolish any morals. Playing the structure is fine, removing it is immoral, according to them. It is a brain defect, amd people suffering from it should be put under guardianship. About half the population.

    If it really was "most", the USA wouldn't be in the situation it currently finds itself in.

    I also blame people who didn’t put in the effort to vote against Trump.

    Yes there was some effort at voter suppression, but that was known and motivated people could have easily got past it if they cared enough to do so.

    Service members: You defend the constitution against foreign AND DOMESTIC threats

    you’re betraying your oath

    It's an oath upheld through force to begin with, and if the authority doing the upholding is compromised the oath itself becomes mere spectacle.

    Unless the people actually hold oath-breakers individually accountable, relying on the compromised military leadership or the compromised courts won't do shit.

    Elon Musk has supported, and still is, supporting trump's election campaigns. Musk cannot shift the blame away from himself.

    Enemy within what? It has always been the case that the US will destroy its proxies, whether they win or lose the objective they were manipulated for

    “The Enemy Within” is a good episode of Star Trek, and a good episode of Stargate. Why is it such a terrible fucking episode for the US?

    Europe has to help Ukraine more. The US, Russia, and China are all working against Ukraine. This is what Europe should propose to Putin. Russia will withdraw from all land it seized from Ukraine after the 2022 invasion. NATO would be dissolved and replaced with a European alliance. Ukraine and Canada would be permitted to join but not the US. All sanctions against Russia will be lifted. Russia will not be required to pay reparations. If Putin doesn't accept the proposal, the UK and France would send troops to Ukraine.

    In America diesel is primarily used by Corporations for trucking. Most American cars use gasoline. So this deal is really about lowering costs for the big companies, not about lowering gas prices for working class

    Europe will stand by and watch. Russia knows this, and so does Trump. They're a lost cause and costly (Trump's opinion)

    Russia can out-last Ukraine, with much more manpower to draw from.

    Ukraine wants to last longer than Russia's economy... but must do so while the USA and EU are financing Russia by buying oil. If USA is the "enemy within" for buying from Russia... what is the EU? Honest question.
