Would it be fair to say that trumpism is absorbing a chunk of the cultural power once held by evangelicalism in the US? That's the impression I'm getting from the other side of the Pacific, anyway

Trump/Bush/Reagan etc. all suck, but the only reason we had any of them was that loving shitbird Andrew Johnson. gently caress Andrew Johnson.

Seth Pecksniff posted:Ah yes truckers, the face of the bourgeois The truckers that actually drive are probably working, the truck owners and capital involved in trucking are all driving around and whining about taxes. Trucking is a brutal profession with low margins and I don’t really see actual truck drivers loving off for a few weeks at a time without completely destroying their life savings and/or committing unemployment fraud. Edit: beaten but yeah, trucking sucks thanks to capitalism (everything sucks thanks to capitalism)

CommieGIR posted:Because these fucks are comfortable, and realize that they jeopardize their livelihood by trying to be a real life rebel. And it always goes to show how they don't actually believe anything they say they do. I've rallied with a group in-person at my city hall for better bicycle safety laws. I've known people take to the streets for weed legalization and basic human rights for LGBTQ+ people. This tough guy says a deep state shadow government has taken over the country and is wrongfully persecuting their Presidential candidate ahead of an election he says might destroy the country, and he isn't doing poo poo about it because even he somehow knows it's all nonsense.

I still can't believe how shallow the actual support for Trump is once you get beyond the bot-pumped appearances. Like, he only has rallies in tiny areas where he's guaranteed to have an appearance of "SELLING OUT THE STADIUM," and lately he can't even pull THE WHOLE TINY TOWN! It's amazing.

Nope, its largely the evangelicals, now there's a lot of small business owners among the evangelicals, but their core is the religious right.

Can’t overstate how embarrassing the Ottawa trfukers were on a national level. They were burning beer boxes and poo poo in our capital. I’m glad locals were loving up their cars, but they all should have been impounded and sold off to pay for the damages and loss of economic activity they caused

This Hunter S Thompson quote is something I keep coming back to for this exact reason Hunter S Thompson posted:This maybe the year when we finally come face to face with ourselves; finally just lay back and say it—that we are really just a nation of 220 million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns, and no qualms at all about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable.

kw0134 posted:That's the rub though, you're not going to avert the ACW by wholly embracing the abolitionist side either. The equilibrium was already coming apart, the South could already see the writing on the wall with the way the new states that were inevitably going to be free states given that they've already fought a mini-civil war in Kansas and lost. (To maintain the equilibrium would have required more Western slave states.) Whether or not you like Buchanan as a person, you have to think of what another person would have done in his place and I don't think the answer would have resulted in much different because the historical forces that lead to the ACW are much larger than any single person, being a slow burning fuse that was lit in 1789 and finally reaching its end. Half the country deeply believed that slavery was good and just, the other half believed it was an abomination and I don't see an argument that bridges that divide which prevents war. I wouldn't have personally pressured the Supreme Court to issue the Dred Scott decision and have my cabinet siphon federal weapons to start the Civil War, but that's just me.
