Far Right kooks and being a sexpest, name a worse duo

Whatever, you brainwashed Trump bootlicker 🤣

Right? lol

The US bolsters NATO, Taiwan, South Korea, and the rest of our allies, Trump is an extreme isolationist, pro-Putinist, Pro Kim Jong Un, and despite his BS, Pro Xi, if he pulls out of NATO, flips on all of our alliances it will break the current world order, and bolster a world order of fascist tyrants. Trump is also talking about some pretty extreme measures at home, and I doubt we'll all just take it, loyalties are going to he divided, we're weak AF right now and primed for a collapse, which will also upset the current world order. Also people may not like the idea of world orders, but what we have is much better than the alternative that guys like Trump, Putin, and others offer.

The reason why we'll weather things better under Biden is that he's competent, surrounds himself with fairly competent people, he's not an isolationist, and MAGA/GOP are one presidential loss from total collapse, especially now with the Trump's in full control of GOP finances.

So yeah, that's why.

DeSantis: "fuck people my friends gotta stay rich and get richer!"

Well more likely when the courts reverse this, if they reverse this.

So let me get this straight, if I, living in Florida, ever found a fire ant free spot to lay down and relax in a park, I'll be harassed by cops now? Or is this just for the "shittier" neighborhoods? What about people at the beach?

The current governor and Florida legislature are a bunch of mean spirited bigoted buffoons.

There's just too many misinformed hot heads saying and doing dumb shit while being herded by malicious puppet masters with their own nefarious agendas, and if Trump wins in November each of those dominoes will start tumbling as things degrade. I hope we all see reason but those that are sucked into the various disinformation and propaganda campaigns are basically forming new religions around the objects of those misinformation and propaganda campaigns, and each of those new religions have counter-religions that those same misinformation and propaganda purveyors have also helped to foster and foment, just a really ugly problem to tackle regardless of if things go well in the future.

You're acting like we haven't been in the opening stages of WWIII since Russia invaded Ukraine...back in 2014! The deeper invasion into Ukraine and Israel v Gaza are just more steps in that direction, and if America devolves into Civil War the whole world is going to be settling past grievances, and WWIII will be on like Donkey Kong. While I hope I'm wrong, things could definitely go wrong for all of us, especially with who takes or keeps the American Presidency in November.

I've seen it said where Musk and Thiel and the other Internet billionaires are the modern robber barons, but one thing to note, they're almost all "Libertarian", they are almost all trying to force some kind of ideology onto us, especially Thiel, since he is completely intertwined with the MAGA movement and the GOP, and they have no goal of contributing to making our country better in the way that Rockefeller, Carnegie, and others of the Gilded Age did.

So while I agree with the spirit of this CS Lewis quote, I believe it is aging like milk.

Here's a good article I found that highlights the contrasts between the old robber barons vs the new:
