We've been in the full on post-truth era since Jan 20, 2016.

Where facts and science are seen as the enemy and any bullshit conspiracy theory can be willed into existence if you try hard enough.

And that graph is just one of many, many examples of it.

And speaking of Reagan and how much the country has shifted right, if a hypothetical Reagan were alive and running for president in 2020 or 2024 could he win a Republican Primary on a platform that included banning assault rifles and amnesty?

Yes he absolutely could because republicans voters are more interested in spectacle than policy.

When will liberals learn that "catching" republicans in an act of hypocrisy means nothing to them?

Trump could get caught red-handed paying for a thousand pornstar mistress abortions and would still get 99% of the evangelical vote in 2024.

Surely, far from all republicans want Trump in office? Isn't it rather that they don't want the Democratic alternative?

Yeah, the man spent a lot of time shitting on W, the Iraq War etc during his primary. (And of course saying in nearly the same breath we should engage in more war to loot some of that thar oil. I can understand why people who want to feel good and not think about the institutions they support/benefit from hate the guy: he's an honest crooked face of what we truly are.)

In 2000, a man who just barely lost the presidential election if Florida law was followed became president. Who went on to do some not mild murder-looting, supported of course by the next organization that gets to wear the princess tiara.

The kayfabe is for entertainment purposes. When Pelosi, during the Supreme Court Seat Episode, said she "had a lot of arrows in her quiver" to #resist (because she's not going to use any of them~) I seethed and seethed for four seconds before getting over it.

Taking kayfabe seriously always reminds me of that Futurama episode with the bureaucrats' meeting where one remarks "you're technically correct... the best kind of correct". It's kayfabe, for christ's sake.

It's only going to get worse before it gets worse. What the hell are they going to do - pay everyone to stay at home? Let one of the dictators in our triumvirate, the energy conglomerates, die? They were so desperate to make hydrogen as a storage medium happen, but physical reality can't be mutilated that far. It's not the imaginary world of TV.

Trump is the logical endpoint of the trajectory Republicans have been on since at least Nixon:

Ah he's a bog standard republican. Reagan used rhetoric like the "(black) welfare queens" and stuff like "the sidewalks become jungle paths at night" to win the California governorship, he didn't exactly hide anything either. It's just liberal white-washing of the man to think anything different, just like Bush 2 (and Trump in the future). If anything Trump's a more old-timey type of republican. For those who desire the status quo to have the aesthetic qualities of the past, he's a warm comfort blanket before the kayfabe became completely fake and plastic.

I do wonder where they'll go after the income tax is cut to 0%. Will they implement a Milton Friedman-esque negative income tax where people making over $200,000 a year get a check? Where else can they go? I really didn't want to find out, but I guess we're going to have to.

If they increase the minimum wage to 8.20 and we get one or two bouts of Bidenbux over the next four years, I'll call that an incredible win. It'll make me feel 1.2% better when we're all dead in 30 years.

Absolutely. Those people are job creators and economic wealth drivers, they deserve to be rewarded for their hard work and sweat in having to drag the rest of the layabouts for the good of the economy and of the nation. They're the true heroes, and rewarding them speaks to the protestant work ethic and working class spirit that made America the greatest country in the history of the world.

Besides, if you don't take money away from the lower class and give it to their betters, what motivation will they have to strive to improve themselves and their country?

This clip is the gift that keeps on giving. Note the last name. Then know that this was released the same week as the Trump tax cuts for billionaires.

You and your crew will be showered in all the money, puccy and amphetamines one could ever hope for,

as a reward for freeing Freedom Land from the ChiCom army and their inside man and 2nd in command, JOE BIDEN.


Sounds good?

A good example of how we live in the world of fantasy and fiction, tv and film. The apocalypse is a slow, grinding, dull thing in reality, how can it compare to this Dragon Ball Z bullshit. It's all very Huxleyian.

If the democrats were actually against fascism even 0.1% as strongly as these people say they believe, well, we'd already be living in a utopia instead of waiting and hoping for Google to take over the world Blade Runner style.

(For those of you who don't follow this stuff, ISRIB had a media push a couple weeks ago. It's a miracle brain drug... for mice. It's interesting that it does provide evidence the brain doesn't weaken with age through damage, but from half-assing its protein folding and such. And in other google news, modeling protein folds being solved is a real kind of full circle thing. Early internet nerds might remember the old Folding@home project that distributed computation power and human effort into the problem.)

While I can't take credit for the prodigious kill count (INFOSEC relies on a good cover story), it was me and my lads who located that ChiCom bunker mentioned a few posts up - the one subsequently blown to hell and turned into the popular BIG NATURAL CRATER LAKE. :cool: After infiltrating the Chinese-held enclave of POTATOVILLE, we rolled up at their safehouse in our Free Somali Jugend T1 Panzer (my cousin Larry's '85 Durango with some zinc welded on the sides), and advertised our show to the long-suffering troops - or rather, the "hard-working farmhands." After some quizzical glances at my rather terrifying yet strangely alluring cohort, we were waved through to the main complex - fifty thousand armed ChiCom fiends lurking just below the potato-rich soil.

The horror that occurred next is merely one of the episodes recounted in my upcoming autobiography, "White Devil In Black Hell." Warning: it gets a bit dark. Image This is an inside look at information war in the 21st century, and a study of the Dew-guzzling neckbeards who crowdfunded the FSJ's dreaded homo-subversive mercs to make QANON's retarded dream a blood-soaked reality. Image
EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW wrote:In my time commanding the unit, "Poor Massive White Guy: Ice Cream Sandwich In African Hell" had been a niche asset, at best. Here once again, the lunacy of ChiCom-infested 2020s America lent us its mad favour.

Those poor backed-up bastards were screaming for an encore as we left the stage. With the ChiComs' infamous "Don't Ask, Just Shoot" policy on jailhouse liaisons, and their retarded Confucian disdain for manual release, even the straightest of these Mao-mongling microdicks was packed in to see Somalia's buffest men wrestle for the amusement of their haughty colonial overlord.

Unfortunately for them, soon they were just plain screaming, at least the ones unfortunate enough to survive the first strike - because our FSJ-issue thongs the crowd had so eagerly caught as we left the stage were equipped with QANON-grade tracking beacons, which saw the former safehouse glowing even brighter on the radar than my poor smacked arse.

They train us to think of these godless ChiComs as subhuman, but like a scrub tech at a fry-up, it's hard to distinguish in the moment. As we tore out of the living hell that was once POTATOVILLE, hosing down the odd straggler as we went, I saw one poor prick with Harold's melted PVC thong fused to his screaming skull. I hoped his last thoughts were of my first lieutenant's magnificent nubian cheeks, and not his poor wife and kids back home in ChiComVille.

It's because none of them will be left behind when the martial law rapture finally comes. On that holy day the constitution will be protected, and all the evil isms christianly defeated by Trump once and for all through extrajudicial assassinations and mass ideologically-based pogroms in the name of the Ten Commandments. Just as Jesus and the founding fathers intended in the first place, when they signed their names at the end of the Bible in 1776 after giving their lives in the fight against Marxism.
