Well there are 0 ways oligarchy funded fascism is going to save us, so that makes better odds with AI.

You know what, good fucking point. The oligarchs are guaranteed to try and take everything. Might as well roll the dice.

The local mood is 100% correct

Not enough of you, unfortunately.

Will he quite a few more by the end of the first week of November. Hey fuck that’s less than a month away!

Europe has been planning for this for a while now. It’s going to suck but once it’s clear the midterms are compromised, Trump can and will throw Ukraine fully under the bus, no more pretense.

It adds up to me…it’s why Putin hasn’t given up (he knows his opportunity is coming), why Trump is not acting like the midterms matter at all, why Europe has been moving to a war footing (Russia has no momentum, so there’s obviously an inflection point coming).

Is it really that hard to believe? I’ve been sure of this for well over a year (midterms being ignored/illegitimate, MAGA taking full power afterward). I really, really hope I’m wrong and will admit my ignorance if I am, but I just don’t see any other logical outcome that doesn’t involve something like a friendly coup or other black swan event

You know what? That’s kind of perfect.

Nobody expects a wet fart. They’re usually a product of a poorly thought out decision. When they happen, they’re embarrassing, hard to clean completely and typically leave a stain. You swear you’ve learned your lesson about trust, but enough time passes and another one finds its way into your drawers.

Just here to say I’m also going to do this! Didn’t really ever think to.

That wasn’t broadcast live, it was leaked

Nothing would make me happier than to see US diesel purchased from Russia go to the bottom of the ocean.

And I’m a fucking environmentalist.

Yeah you got it on the nose

A complete and total throwing of Ukraine under the bus. I cannot believe the Russian interference in US politics is so nakedly obvious and still nothing being done.

Maybe it’s moot as the chaos really starts in just a few weeks. But wow.

It’s short for fetching

It’s unsurprising that the US’s fingerprints are on this. Not that it’s impossible some crazy person could do this independently in other countries…but fuck. Of fucking course bro from the US was coaching. He’s from the place it was born.

STOP PRETENDING THE OUTCOME IS NOT COMPLETELY PREDICTABLE

If he wins legitimately, you’re fucked.

If he wins by cheating, you’re fucked.

If he doesn’t win, it was rigged, stall everything in the courts, until such time that they can take the mask off completely and by then it’s too late. You’re fucked.

It’s a dangerous game. People are going to have to get comfortable with in person conversations again.

Huh. Never upvoted a deleted comment due to user name before…

debating theortical computer pain during the midst of all this PREVENTABLE real pain is asinine and immature. I stand by that.

debates furiously

There’s quite a few loons out there…

Say vanta black again

You’re Irish aren’t you
