Democracy works when people participate. When people don't participate, poo poo like this happens. The ONLY silver lining from this whole Trump debacle is that people are starting to realize, "You know, maybe I should start participating in the political process. Like at every level."

I hope this is true because if it is the biggest lols will be yet to come as the political factions previously only known to the internet start replacing the household names we've all been told will die off eventually

1) I'm American
2) I voted for Trump specifically so that he would gently caress up so badly that the current, broken-beyond-repair America would die under his misrule, with the hope that the sane among us would create a new government lol
3) The problem is that by proxy, I AM responsible for the death and destruction of millions because I am an American. It's also my fault that I and the rest of us have not risen up to slay Trump and his voters (yep, kill me too!) as we should. They aren't retards: They're collaborators and collusionists with the direct intent to do harm to all not like them.

Death to America is the biggest lol of them all, here in the drive thru, because it is the sound of hope. If America doesn't die, the chances of us turbofucking humanity into extinction are insanely high. We have a limited amount of time to try to kill the nation and the ideologies that run it while killing as few people as possible before the climate, the nukes, the extinction event, and all the rest finish everyone off for good.

So, Death to America, ASAP. Let's save billions of lives and kill one country.

Shame recognize shame.

This is 7 years, or hours old. But very good synopsis


Companies do commonly hire consultants with ties to politicians for strategic advice. In the Trump administration, several former campaign and transition officials set up consulting firms — some that do not fall under the lobbying disclosure laws — to advise clients on the president’s possible thinking on mergers, regulations and legislation related to taxes and trade

So he’s free to go.

Counterpoint: the rich will feel no pain once the guillotine is done doing a good job of guillotining.

Other counterpoint: some people are already down there and don't care to climb back out.

OK genius, tell us the exact point at which you'll consider it time for revolution and justice against abusive plutocrats. How will we know? Is it whenever 80% of people can't access basic healthcare and education? More? Slavery being legalized again? Or is that still too early? There has to be some point at which you consider things ready and I'd like to hear it. What would it take.

Edit: I assume we're specifically talking about guillotines here and not accelerationism.

Also something important to note is the carefully cultivated nihilism and "well what can you do?" mentality that has pervaded the cultural consciousness.

That sense of helplessness and lack of control tends to cause an over reaction against the perception of authoritarian rule. Ironically, this has been channeled into a rather simplistic 'burn it all down and drat the consequences' mentality, as well typified by our friend Quidam Vistor.
