All for the well known leftist goal of getting a fascist elected.

1892: Two non-consecutive terms?? How queer!!

2024: I guess we doin non-consecutive terms now.

He could go for beating Roosevelt's record by getting elected a fourth time and not dying three months in.

He can't remove it anyway. That would need 2/3 of Congress.

Maybe he could simply ignore the term limit and have the Supreme Court rule in his favor (maybe making up some bullshit related to non-consecutive terms despite the 22nd being clear enough that that shouldn't work), but yeah I doubt he'd even want it.

He has other battles to hawk over. Like I said he has Israel as an excuse. "We need to stop sending weapons to Ukraine so we can send them to Israel."

Plus he'll probably start stoking things with Iran even further.

But the economy is great! The good line is going up and the bad line isn't going up as fast as it was!

"Ukraine is fucked" to libs means losing some land and/or having a pro-Russia government. The people dying don't matter.

Something that likely isn't even true.

Ukraine has been Biden's project since he was VP. Trump on the other hand holds no hate for Russia and even clashed with Zelenskyy. He'll be happy to drop them. Especially as revenge for his first impeachment and loss to Biden. Plus he has Israel as an excuse.

Would have to be 2044 actually since he'd be a year too young in 2040.

which it seems like we're only doing for chips right now because the US is concerned about losing Taiwan for some reason

The US is already overextending its supplies in Ukraine and Israel, while also antagonizing China and Iran.

If the US goes full hog on Iran, which they really want to do, they'd be hard pressed to simultaneously defend against a Chinese takeover of Taiwan.

No China doesn't particularly want to do that, but the US being bogged down in Iran while also supplying Israel (and Ukraine under Biden, but no longer under Trump) would probably be their best opportunity ever.

Which means if the US wants to continue antagonizing Iran and China, they have to be prepared to lose their semiconductor colony even if that's not a guaranteed scenario.

The economy was definitely the most important factor by far, but I'm guessing a large majority of Latino Trump voters do take issue with the Spanish language-defying term "Latinx".

We are in Finland... wtf does he think is going to happen?

He thinks Trump is going to give Putin permission to invade Finland. Something Putin definitely wants or ever wanted to do.

Eventually, Europe will come up with its own stealth fighter.

"Eventually, Europe will waste billions on another plane that can't fly in the rain."

HOI4 is officially getting URSAL (clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com)
 

They better include a reference to the bear. They already have Wojtek and the polar bear.

 

The Ukraine war was just a distraction all along. Russia has developed FTL travel and now has nukes stationed in Andromeda, waiting to strike the US.

Also lol at showing Crimea as unambiguously part of Ukraine, but also showing Ukraine bombing Crimea. I guess Ukraine is bombing itself.

The first 4 points (not in the screenshot, in the full thread) aren't horrible, depending on what calls of ableism they have in mind, but it's just way down hill from there.

Their bio:

Brunch lib. Basically a KHive/Bonds Dog amalgam. I stand with 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇺🇦🇬🇾🇹🇼🇦🇲

Just the worst collection of flags, except 🇬🇾 and 🇦🇲, but I'm guessing 🇬🇾 is just to follow the State Department line on their territorial dispute with Venezuela.

I so want this to be a parody, but they have a lot of threads about how horrible various 91° media pundits actually love Trump.

(Not that all their targets are undeserving, ♫Michael Tracey Crypto-Fascist♫ is definitely not.)

Instead they're focused on the murderer, repeating his name everywhere and showing his mugshot at the top of their articles. So I wanted to post to honor Wadie instead.

Wadie was stabbed 26 times by that monster. I don't even know how to express how fucked up this is. The poor boy. I'm heartbroken.

The comment he was fired for.

Our thread to get him fired. I'm sure there were a lot more people reporting him as well, but I don't care, we're the ones responsible.

 
 

I have no friends or partner, I’ve been very lonely.

When I go out to try to meet people, no one ever comes up to me and starts talking to me. But if I want to meet someone I have to do exactly that. But like, why should I have to be the one to initiate 100% of the time? Shouldn’t it be 50/50? (And I’m not really talking about societal expectations of the man initiating with the woman, I’d rather have a boyfriend anyway.)

I have such a hard time initiating conversations with people, to the point where I mostly just stress out and sit there alone. If someone initiated with me things might go better. But they just don’t.

The only reasonable explanation I can think of is that literally no one has any interest in me.
