Short, but well written.
his latest move could kill us all
This phrase could literally have been said at any point during Trump’s current term, and it will continue to be true for the rest of his term. Trump is regularly doing things that could kill us all.
If the dementia doesn’t get him first, he’s going to get a bomb dropped on US to stay in the White House.
You could have said “rest of his life”
I honestly think that just the damage that’s been done to climate change initiatives might be enough. We had a ton of steam going in to 2025, and this year has set us back by decades. I’m afraid that having such a prominent producer of GHG and pollution pull away so sharply will have knock on effects to other countries. After all, if the US doesn’t play ball, why should a smaller industrial country try to be cleaner?
Hopefully there’s still willpower and (more importantly) time to fix our shit before people start dying en masse. I kind of have my doubts at this point though. I’m pretty sure we will only start to truly prioritize it once it has a large impact on daily life, and that point will be far too late.
Rest of the world here: WE FUCKING WARNED YOU, YOU MORONS!!!
Hardly, half of the world is currently considering electing just as moronic representatives.
American here: I warned them too, but they’re too stupid to listen to reason…and facts…and science.
Weird how the rest of the world hasn’t stopped him. Almost as if there are idiots and inaction everywhere.
Because that would require either a terrorist action or a bunch of Internationally illegal tampering with American Democracy or declaring war against the World power with the the largest standing army and deepest pockets for arsonal. The rest of the world is effectively held hostage while Americans solve their own problems.
It’s the reason why a lot of bad people in power stay in power. There can be tariffs and sanctions and all manner or soft power deals but the rules are rules. Sovereignty and a right to run your country mostly the way you want is protected as a right and and the US used its positioning as the least devastated megapower/millitary supremacy post WWII to basically bend the world over and get a lot of acceptions to a lot of rules.
I’m doing what I can to foment disgust from another country
Not our fucking job to fix the US’s stupid problem. Land of the brave clearly don’t think it’s that big a deal so they’re on their own while we work out to take care of ourselves. Unfortunately there is still inaction, yes, but the US needs to actually do something about this instead of asking why no one is helping the country that actively fucked them over for decades upon decades.
What’s this “we” assertion bullshit?
the election was hacked and stolen…
Unfortunately I don’t believe it was. Go on Next door some time and you’ll see why.
Online aside, I meet plenty of MAGA out in the wild.
Crickey!!!
not sure what state you’re in but:
a) russian trolls can post on next door too.
b) election truth allianceFlorida and the people I’ve seen are real. Really stupid.
How many times did you let Florida Man vote?
Too god damned many.
Florida is certainly chock full of stupid people.
i think nextdoor tends to concentrate a certain type of person
it was. Election Truth Alliance has some compelling public data.
To the extent of discounting Muslims, latinos, white people, and non voting or third party voting tankies???
I want to believe as much as the next person that this was a fully successful voter fraud, but Americans are truly that sexist against women and tankies are adamant, even now, that Gaza is the hill they want to die on.
Election fraud, not voter fraud. There’s a difference.
Namely, voter fraud is thing Republicans falsely accuse the Democrats of in order to deflect from the election fraud they’re actually committing.
That’s to say nothing for the idea that if the election WERE stolen, it would be an uncharacteristic display of technical competence the likes of which we’ve never seen from this administration before or since.
please look at the publicly available data. all i’m asking. check out what they are presenting.
Refusing to do anything against that scum was just as good as supporting him, in the end.
So yeah, I’d say that 2/3rds is enough to constitute a ‘we’ in this case.
Ugh, stupid webpage kept prompting me to pay despite telling me it was a free article shared by subscribers.
Can I get a trld please?
Too read, long didn’t
Don’t dead open inside
The word order wouldn’t even work as a ddoi.
It is paywall.
Wooosh !
Too read, long didn’t = trld
Too long ; didn’t read = tl;dr
Tl;dr - Trump ruining environment and economy for the whole world, not just the US.
Didn’t see any new stuff besides some stuff from Newsom and the Pope about how it’s probably wrong to let people die and poison the planet.
Thank you.
All in a day’s work, friend!
Thanks
the global south, including poor states in the US

We elected an imbecile
You’re only just figuring that out now?
It’s like saying your house may have caught fire while standing in front of the building engulfed in flames.
Honestly? At this point I’d be OK with it, if it just happens fast (there’s a your mom joke in there, but I can’t be arsed)
Death doesn’t seem so bad as an American living in a psychological manipulated fake dystopian freedom hellscape.
It’s clear now nobody is going to actually fight back. Give me a quick death and I’m good.
It’s clear people don’t understand modern war and geopolitics. Like 4th and 5th generation warfare. Humanity already lost.
Humanity just funded and gave it all away. We are to blame because we gave them so much power instead of owning up to our own human life experience. Now look at them scrambling around STILL giving power to the manipulative psychological entertainment and politics. There is not hope if people still have their foot in that criminally evil and compromised lifestyle. No one takes ownership of their life, they outsource and pay for protection. How did they actually think this wouldn’t be the result? It’s hard to admit but the result is to be expected for their lifestyles of arrogance and ignorance. It sounds harsh… And I know we are all manipulated from birth to fall down this path, and we didn’t really have a chance… But we really didn’t have to keep denying the truth of the situation and live with this Stockholm syndrome. Not many people have the courage to understand and see existence for what it really is.
It’s sad. If there was a genuine army or military I’d join it, but it really seems humanity is compromised by something dark and trust cannot be placed into any organization, subculture, entity…
The only way out seems to be if there was majority cultural/spiritual/lifestyle shift away from life as we have come to know it. And a new foundation was built on true ideas that correlate with the essence of the universe and not simply the ego of humans.
