And stupid

That is correct coupled with how everything is gamified and that it’s statistically more like for an incumbent to win. Game theory, while a valid field of study, has really fucked us over

A large number of the problems we currently face and will in the future come down to boomers being worse than their predecessors at grasping, understanding, and accepting their own impermanence and unimportance on the grand stage of reality.

Most of them need to have a series of existential crises or maybe read some fucking Satre so they can stop with the Me generation bullshit. It’s wild that the first generation to do LSD in mass is somehow the one that needs to experience ego death the most

You might be the most delusional person I’ve read an opinion from on here if you think another civil war and dissolution of the union isn’t possible or even likely this point in time.

Just because “it was settled” in the first civil war doesn’t mean it’s settled now and forever, thats not how anything works at all.

Don’t bother responding I don’t have time for the naive so you’re blocked

I hope it’s on live tv

Username checks out

About damn time

Only if he makes Robert Evans Secretary of State or Surgettorney General

Just the American economy!? The entire global order has been upended

Power and authority are the big root problems

You leave the children of gith out of this

It’s not even sharing, they take turns with it at random

It means gullible and incurious… but also yes

He’s not saying he’s good because he’s a good father and husband, he’s citing those as evidence for him being a good conservative Christian, which is the only thing that matters to them. If you identify as exactly that you can do anything and still be a good person.

The rich have co-opted Christianity and the insane devotion its internal logic creates to build their perfect foot soldiers

Thank you! This distraction talk is starting to feel like astroturfing, I’m sure he doesn’t want them released but to say potentially starting ww3 and for sure annihilating anything that remained of the post ww2 international order is to stop people talking about it is asinine

What do you actually think is going to happen if they are ever released? Better question what’s gonna happen to him if they don’t?

At least STEM and the humanities can both agree that business degrees are terrible

lol done here you’re not worth any more effort, with you being daft as a brush and all that.

That’s not what was implied in the comment your replaying to, they just stated it’s something Putin would greatly enjoy and benefit from. Not that he or any other state or non state actor are pulling the strings.

And they are correct, strategically it greatly benefits his aims in Ukraine for the EU to have its attention taken by the US annexing part of a member nation, not to mention the collapse of NATO.

And I’m not defending anyone here, American and its rich rulers are pieces of shit, Putin and the Russian oligarchs are pieces of shit, and even though they aren’t doing anything wrong in this instance the leaders/authorities of every major player in geopolitics are also in fact pieces of shit.

Edit: and before you start, politically I’m best described as an anarchist in the fashion of David Graeber so not a liberal by a long sight

The Democrats and DOJ have been doing a Sudetenland with Trump for since halfway through his first fucking term, through the Biden admin, and now. Just let him and his movement do and take what they want in hopes that they’ll calm down if they get what they want so everything can get back to business as usual. Just because it’s an ideological Sudetenland doesn’t make any less stupid
