I agree with the general thrust of your point, but rather than the US/Trump not having any good cards to play, it’s more like Trump deliberately played multiple self-sabotage cards & is trying to put the blame on CHAINA. As far as other countries like China taking advantage, it doesn’t take a poli-Sci major to figure out how to take advantage of the situation Trump/the US have put themselves in. Just engage in genuine good-faith relations with other countries & don’t be a dick

Fuck US-Israeli Neo-imperialism

Yeah most politicians are fucked, we knew the DNC was worthless the second Biden announced he was running for reelection. It’s the people’s resistance you have to look for, which I think you can count the election of Mamdani as part of that resistance. The DNC tried to run accused sex predator Cuomo against him & the voters said hell no & elected Mamdani. & Mamdani has done anything but sit on his hands like members of the Democratic Party are doing.

I guess this doesn’t count as an antifa militia then?

Surrendered?? Wtf are you taking about? Things are dire out there, but there is a resistance. Get off your damn couch & join it, out build it if you have to

Fuck the police

I’m convinced there’s a private equity expert somewhere in the Trumpsphere advising them on how to run the private equity playbook on the US gov to extract maximum profit, in this case at the expense of the public

Face eating leopards & all that

Damn sounds like we need some good old fashioned communism so we make sure the subsidies are going to the people rather than some rich egomaniacs hedge fund

They’re so busy fighting the culture war, maybe they’ll stop fighting the Iran war

Amazing insight, thanks for sharing!

Tax the rich you coward!!

Seriously though, is he trying to fire a salvo in some BS culture war battle? Maybe he thinks taxing software will effectively tax ai?
