Getting too much money reaaaaally fucks with your head. Becoming a billionaire should count as a brain injury.

Get fucked Trump

We didn’t distinguish “good” Germans from bad Germans during WWII,

Yes, the fuck we did.

and we don’t distinguish “good” Russians from bad Russians.

Yes the fuck we do.

This is the mentality that leads to war crimes.

That’s an unhinged stance. People that bought a car without knowing what Elon was or would become are not morally responsible for enabling him. Intent matters. Most of them, im sure, just wanted an electric vehicle… the end. They do not deserve to be punished for Musk and Trump’s evils.

This… might actually be an improvement. Okay, hear me out. The film industry has been overloaded lately with over-bloated budgets for CG light shows with little substance, narrative, or character appeal. A BIG part of the reason for that is because for the last decade or two Hollywood has been making as much or more money from the Chinese box office as they do the US. As such, they have prioritized the lowest common denominator between what will sell between both countries. That stuff that sells is visual effects, action, basic stories, simple characters, and non-politically or culturally challenging content that will be censored.

This has SEVERELY limited film making and resulted in a lot of samey uninteresting stuff coming out in theatre’s for years now. It has killed witty comedies that do not transcend culture or language well. It has killed divisive narratives that wouldn’t get the Chinese government’s approval. It has dumbed down stories and killed nuance so that that audiences don’t need cultural context to understand them.

If studios no longer think they can make money hand over foot off the Chinese box office with another cgi robot movie or some such shlock, they may make more unique, smaller budget films with more complex characters, better humor, counter-cultural aspects, challenging narratives, and minimal CGI. They can stop exclusively farming all the existing globally recognizable IP to rehash the same stories over and over with updated visuals. They can revitalize an industry that sorely needs it.

I miss those… what, 2 months(?) that he wasn’t in the news cycle.

At best, world leaders may be trying to salvage their current investments in the US and trade sources in the short term. But they are also immediately starting the process to divest from the US, maybe permanently. He may get a short term gain from a handful of countries, but is tanking us long term as everyone distances themselves from us.

Trade, investments, debts, these things bind countries together and promote better economies the world-wide. The point of Tariffs are to reduce or eliminate these connections to other countries in the effected markets, to isolate and insulate your domestic market from the international market at large. When you put a blanket tariff on all markets on all countries, especially when openly trying to use those as extortion tactics against other countries, you are guaranteeing this isolation. We are well on the way from being isolated from the world, like North Korea, all because of one man without any sense, decency, or limitations. We are fucked.

Myself? Welp… grabs mall katana… wish me luck.

Edit: the /s was implied, NSA. Calm down.

The difference is Isreal is mostly only a danger to Gaza or starting a war with Iran. Trump is threatening other sovereign states with invasion and annexation, and destabilizing the economies of global powers. It’s not a moral/humanitarian concern which tends to get mixed responses from global powers. It’'s a self-interest concern or matter of survival for a lot of powerful countries which tends to get a more direct response.

First of all, fuck you, figure it out. Second of all, if that were the case, that means you are literally sentencing people to life imprisonment without chance of parole with absolutely no due process at all. That goes even beyond what the (unconstitutional) Alien Enemies Act allows. Far beyond. For the love of God, make this shit stop.

I can’t wait until Trump pisses off the world enough that they fight back and he is eventually tried for his crimes against humanity. I can’t wait to shit on your grave you evil fuck.
