No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Seems like Trump waited for winter to escalate his ICE agenda but why did he go after Minnesota? People who are completely acclimated to frigid weather.
321·2 months agoI don’t think he waited. He’s been trying to start shit in other blue states all the way back to sending the Natl. Guard to LA and DC, and failed miserably mind you.
Minnesota was a convenient distraction from Venezuela and the Epstein files. Minnesota was in the news and Trump needed a distraction.
It had to be big to overshadow everything else so he ordered thousands of ICE agents to be deployed, which required expediting/skipping the already inadequate training they’re receiving. Then those untrained agents killed somebody within days of arriving and things have escalated.
Trump doesn’t have a master plan. He fails until he accidentally succeeds.

2·2 months agoI feel like the matter isn’t as much about whether Democrats have the power to fight back and more about whether they have the balls to.
It’s like if Gandalf shrugged and said, “Huh, I guess not” and fucked off back to the Undying Lands leaving Middle Earth to fall to darkness.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?
1·2 months agoIt’s certainly plausible to survive the initial bombings by taking adequate shelter, you may even be able to stock up enough provisions to survive for several months. The problem is what follows.
Nuclear winter is hypothesized to change the climate to the point where growing food is impossible, potentially for several years. Any animals you can hunt before they eventually succumb to starvation will have been poisoned by the fallout, their meat contaminated.
The fallout will spread across the globe, making the air you breathe toxic, either by radiation poisoning or by any number of harmful construction materials such as asbestos which is now particleized and floating freely.
If by some miracle you do still cling to life by this point, you will either be completely alone or surrounded by people just as desperate to survive as you are. Only in fiction do either of those situations end well.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?
10·2 months agoYeah, the heightened potential for nuclear annihilation is terrifying but there’s frankly nothing you can do to survive it. Even if you somehow lived though the bombings, there’s no corner of the globe where starvation nor irradiation would not reach. The Earth would be uninhabitable and death would be certain for most land animals.
It’s a tragic way to die and for the human race to cease to be. But it’s only death and that’s certain to happen one way or another. There are countless other ways you could die that are either within or beyond your control. Many are far more likely to happen than nuclear war. Do you fret about being killed in an accident every time you step into a car?
I know it’s a lot easier said than done but try to live in the now rather than the future. Plan for tomorrow but recognize that, unlike the present, the future is not guaranteed. Don’t take the present for granted, go do things that bring you fulfillment now because ultimately that is the only time that you have control over.

33·2 months agoTrump doesn’t seem to understand that the existing presidential monuments were built posthumously and by popular opinion in order to honor exceptional leaders. His desperate attempts to plaster his name on random bullshit is pathetic. I hope once he finally kicks the bucket that we quickly rename these monuments to honor his victims. I wish he could be alive to see it.

World News@lemmy.world•Bondi beach terror attack: father and son duo allegedly used licensed firearms in shootingEnglish
161·3 months agoLooking at the Wikipedia page on firearm related homicide rates by country, between 2014-2020 Australia had an average rate of 0.117 gun-related deaths per-100k inhabitants. On the other hand, the USA during that same time period had an average rate of 3.181 gun-related deaths per-100k inhabitants.
When compared, the USA had on average 2715% more gun-related deaths per-capita than Australia between 2014-2020, that’s 27x. This should make it obvious that the tighter gun restriction policies of Australia make a significant difference in contrast to the USA’s very loose policies around gun ownership, a far cry from “doesn’t fucking work”.

I’m interpreting the way you’re saying it as being a sarcastic joke but him being the POTUS made him the de facto leader of the Democratic party, who in turn failed to influence the majority of Americans to vote for them. It’s been coming out recently that the party’s own investigation into their 2024 loss revealed that the policy around Gaza played a significant role in their defeat, policy that self-proclaimed zionist President Biden had the power to influence and ultimately supported.
So yeah… It kinda is his fault.
