Like him or not, one thing is very clear: Trump has basically redefined the political metagame.

Good satire is built on facts.

Maybe one-way trip to Pluto instead?

Perhaps the design could be altered.

I know the appeal of a guillotine is that it’s fairly simple, but if we’re gonna scale it up for maximal decapitating efficiency, then I feel like we can afford to have a motor with some horsepower lift the blade. Maybe two to make keeping both sides of the blade even easier.

Wouldn’t a heavy blade be a good thing? So you can ensure a clean cut on the way down?

And forest’s worth of hickory wood.

heckin internet making me look silly

My issue wasn’t with calling Trump a Nazi (I find that assessment correct), but calling them both Nazis. Yes, the rightward shift is concerning, but the false equivalence put up here understates Trump’s danger and heavily overstates Harris’s.

God, I despise the watering down of the term “nazi”.

I feel like if anyone attempted to bomb an American TSMC plant, there would be far larger problems on the docket to come.

SMING

Should be no less than 90%, like it used to be.

The point of a “false prophet” is that they claim to speak for/act in the name of God for their own (evil) ends. False prophets are the highest tier of grifter in a religious context.

Al capone did plenty of charity…

Cool, also irrelevant.

They are sending billions of dollars in weapons to an authoritarian and corrupted government who passed martial law and forbids any man between 18-60 to leave the country, who’s also seeking to forcibly repatriate these who fled the country and are eligible for conscription.

They past martial law because they are fighting for their sovereignty, my guy. If the US had an invader beating down its doorstep and they had already taken California, I feel like switching to wartime government is justifiable. A draft is unfortunate, but when the alternative is to fold in the face of Russian aggression? That’s no choice at all.

They are doing this while backing a genocide in israel, selling weapons to dictatorships such as saudi arabia and doing business with countries like china who are directly supplying russia in this war.

See previous. Yes, the US makes a lot of bad decisions. Supplying Ukraine is not one of them.

They don’t give a shit about you and me or common people, rulers do not fight their wars they send others to die for their slimy interests. That’s not a good thing.

So it is categorically impossible for leaders of nations to care about the people in the nations they administer? This comes off as incredibly cynical.

I get it, the interests of the US government are very frequently wrong and harmful to the world.

But even a broken clock is right twice a day. And assisting Ukraine in defending itself against an invasion is, unequivocally, a good thing.

TL;DR: Lots of convergent evolution leads to crabs.

Honestly, investigating The Institute would’ve been interesting in and of itself. Untangling this rumor which turns out to be a sci-fi conspiracy.
