Remember kids, the US government would absolutely never explicitly kidnap and traffick thousands of children for the sole purpose of sexual favors and blackmail. They’re the good guys.

Direct message

Oh no, the predictable consequences of bombing civilians for 80 years, let’s hope their defense systems continue to fail.

If you’re not dressing as a flapper what are you even doing with your life. Get with the times, it’s never been more acceptable to be a cute little flapper regardless of gender. I will die on this hill, or by a novel strain of influenza that gets blamed on an unrelated country, either way we’re going full rip-roaring 20s doll.

Anarchy isn’t the complete lack of all organization and cooperation, especially anarchosyndicalism.

I’m pretty sure they don’t care about being noticed, and would rather the US and the West fuck off entirely from affairs that don’t involve them.

Or China cuts off the US since they’re no longer dependent on US manufacturing orders. China sanctioning the US would end our economy overnight, while it wouldn’t really effect anyone but the billionaire class in China, and they’re already on the chopping block.

Liberal ideology is a regressive conservative ideology.

It was progressive three centuries ago. It’s not anymore, it’s outlived it’s usefulness.

Anyone competent is loyal to the constitution, not any one president or government. To get to be a general you’re going to be in the military though at least four admins, so loyalty to even a single party is stupid. So if these trials are followed through with, everyone competent will be out.

Additionally this jumpstarts the yesman downward spiral of competency; if you bring bad news contrary to what the fascist leadership want to hear, you’re eliminated, leaving people that will only lie to the admin, leading to the admin to have false information, leading to bad orders, leading to people having to lie about the failure of those orders, and so on. Usually this can take a decade or more to cause a failure, but if you start the cycle with a highly visible purge, even if you don’t kill those purged, that cycle starts near the end of the cycle.

Tldr creating loyalists that have to bend reality to stay employed will lead to a spiraling effect of decisions and failures based on nonreality that will eliminate those creating loyalists.

A) anything that weakens the US and US military is objectively good for humanity.

B) maybe some will be disillusioned enough after the purge to create distractionary forces the government can further weaken itself on by suppressing them

C) it’s really funny the idea of some asshole that spent his entire adult life killing kids for money getting purged because he didn’t want to do the bare minimum ass kissing required to kill more kids for money, like they have morals, standards, or some idea of dignity.

That’s pretty much exactly it, if you ever talk to Trump supporters.

Yeah racism, bigotry, etc is their solution; but they mostly care about why groceries are expensive, why rent is expensive, why they can apply for a thousand jobs and get one singular interview for a job that doesn’t pay enough for anything. Dems failed to do the bare minimum, acknowledge that the vast majority of people in the US are struggling due to systemic issues. Trump acknowledged that and offered solutions, even if they’re horrifying. Even the trans stuff and other “culture war” items are rooted in financial stress.
