Persuading you to vote for their guy, or if you’re disinclined to do so, persuading you to not vote by instilling disgust/outrage (see also: “Genocide Joe”) or just a blackpilled sense of powerlessness.
Some of the most knowledgeable people I’ve meet were dirt-poor.
Also, Putin owns him. Russian TV broadcasting nude photos of his wife drove that point home: that Trump may fume and rage all he likes, but Russia has enough leverage to ensure that he’ll obey.
Maybe it’s the legendary Pee Tape, and maybe it isn’t. By now, they undoubtedly have an entire laundry list of kompromat that they can pick and choose from.
Lovely industrial design on that potato.
If you’re English and move to Wales, you should at least have the decency to become aggressively Welsh, learning the language, chiding people for speaking English and calling for the torching of holiday homes, to the point where native Welsh nationalists suggest that you tone it down a bit.
also, "cui merda tollenda erit?" ("who will shovel the shit?")
If mainstream acceptance of progressive ideas collapses, Dutton will sweep in in a landslide not seen since Howard. And anecdotally it looks like it’s happening: the broad popular rejection of the Aboriginal recognition referendum suggests that there’s a mood of having had a gutful of progressive ideas. Which may be an illusion caused by Murdoch/Rinehart’s command of the media, but Albo having conceded on the issue and playing small-target I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-LNP politics isn’t helping.
Another thing to watch for: Greens support collapsing outside of the core, with them losing seats.
Interesting how they made the tankie a dippy twink but the alt-rightist a gross-looking hygienically-challenged chungus, replete with m’lady fedora.
New Trump cabinet just dropped
In 100 years’ time, it’ll be a common custom to wear red caps, diapers and ear pads on January 6. When asked if they know what that refers to, most Americans will answer that it’s something patriotic to do with George Washington or something.
The good news: your troops come back with combat experience, the first North Koreans to have it since the 1950s
The bad news: your troops come back hooked on internet porn.
You can set up veterans-only porn dispensaries on the national intranet to mitigate that (the state’s hackers can steal it in between emptying Bitcoin wallets for the nuclear programme, or you can set up a domestic porn industry for the military), though what if they are also have become used to freer access to information and speech in general?
The other option, of course, is to make sure nobody comes back alive; like Icelandic racehorses, once your troops leave your pure country, they may never return, lest they contaminate it.
