Yeah, I agree. The left’s leadership is really just “less right”, but equally owned by corporations. That’s not gonna do anything for us.

“Just joking bro”

Don’t worry, they’ll make up for it by endlessly wanking about a glorious revolution that they haven’t even begun to lay the groundwork for, while attacking any attempt to make actual change as “incrementalism”.

You’ve missed my entire point. I’ll be choosing to take The Long Sleep if the US invades. Our country would never be normal again.

I don’t think China would team up with the EU explicitly, it would be more of a pact against a common adversary.

When China says they’re not interested in full, overseas military adventurism, I actually believe them. China is so big, unwieldy and diverse that even in good times it’s hard to keep it stable internally, and one thing the Chinese government is VERY good at is taking an EXTREMELY long-term view of its actions. If China decides to act against the US, it will be in myriad subtle and indirect ways that accomplish its goals without sudden shock and exposure.

Incidentally, the US itself is also a fantastic example of why China WON’T do that. Post WW2, with very few exceptions, almost EVERY instance of US military adventurism has ended in failure, or at the very least, not gained the US anything compared to the losses. But the US’s work in soft power, partnerships, and containment? That brought down the Soviet Union without firing a single shot.

China won’t be stupid enough to try to take America’s place by using the US’s loser tactics - it will do it using their successful ones.

It is common in various countries that large part of the population does not vote.

What does this have to do with the point? I was pointing out that it is unrealistic to assume that the majority of the US population despises Trump, yet he won the elections in a dual party system. That is because if you despise one of the parties in such a system then the choice is very clear.

some of them voted for him because he isn’t a Democrat.

Then if I should take both this point and the one above as true, the conclusion should be: over half the Americans despise Trump, but a larger quantity despise Democrats more than Trump.

Because they CHEATED, and EVERYBODY knows it, even MAGAs. They’d love to brag about it, but they can’t.

In America, the president isn’t chosen by popular vote. No Republican has won the popular vote on America since Reagan in 1980, and they are less popular now than have been in decades. Trump claims he won it in 2024, but again, they cheated, so it doesn’t count.

How did they cheat? The presidential race came down to the votes in 7 swing states, as it usually does. Somehow, despite no polls showing it in advance, Trump won decisively in every single one of those states, almost a statistical impossibility.

To cheat, all they had to do was flip one race, in 7 states, and in those seven states, there were MILLIONS of ballots with straight Democratic tickets, but Trump at the top. MILLIONS! And yet, I’ve never seen a single voter claim they voted that way. I don’t know any, and I’ve never seen one interviewed on TV Supposedly there are millions of them, but nobody has ever talked to one. If you still doubt that, understand that nearly all of those split tickets came from those 7 swing states. We are expected to believe that those sorts of voters only live in those states, and nowhere else.

Besides that, there are many very strange statistical anomolies in districts and states across America, but nobody on either side is talking about it, the media is complicit as usual, so they are covering it, so private individuals are collecting the data and exposing it. It starts to sound like a conspiracy theory, but sometimes, even often, conspiracies are true.

They had four years, and a close alliance between three of the most psychopathic Oligarchs on the planet, including one with the power of a hostile sovereign nation, and two of them with confirmed advanced hacking capabilities, to get their voting machine fraud strategy operational.

Worse, the moment the race was over, the Dems voluntarily declared that the MAGAs won it “fair & square,” even though it was fishy at the outset to anyone with basic Critical Thinking Skills. They didn’t take even the slightest look at it, they were too busy getting excited at the prospect of being smug about teaching a lesson to MAGAs about how to have a peaceful transfer of power, as if MAGAs care about that at all.

And consider this: Trump routinely cheats at everything he does. Everything. He thinks it gives him an advantage over those weak people with morality, which it does. He cheats even when he doesn’t have to, because he always thinks it will give some sort of an advantage.

He was about to go to trial, and almost certainly would have ended up in prison, as the evidence of his treason in two separate cases was incontrovertible. The only thing that would keep him out of prison for the rest of his life, was becoming president. So we are supposed to believe that the one election that would keep him out of prison for life, was the one election that he decided to play it “fair & square” for the first time in his entire life? How can ANYONE be that obtuse?

The Democratic Leadership reaction finally exposed, once and for all, how weak and cowardly the Dem leadership like Schmuck Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi, etc. truly are. They don’t really want power, all they care about is remaining in office so they can keep padding their bank accounts with insider trading. It’s as if they know that the entire world is about turn authoritarian, and the only thing that will save them and their heirs is a shit ton of money, so they are concentrating on that, instead of saving America, and the world, from MAGA rule.

MAGA is only about a 1/3 of America, and shrinking. They got into power by cheating, and they will hold power through brutality. We have a couple of elections ahead that will secure the future one way or the other, and it is literally the Democrats last chance, and they actually have a good chance to prevail…

…unless they squander this opportunity, the way they did during the shameful Biden administration, and fail to crush MAGA once and for all, and purge it from our government and our society. Then America will be lost, and likely slip into Civil War, and the rest of the world will be on their own to prevent their own takeovers by Russia and China.

Other countries need America to slip out of this peacefully nearly as much as America does. They need to pressure their leaders, to pressure the Democratic Party, to take its responsibility seriously, and either fight back, or get out of the way and let the rising Progressive Warriors have a go at stopping MAGA.

Paid opposition is essentially they’re paid for by the ones truly in power, the Sociopathic Oligarchs, to be the foil to the other party they want to maintain control with. They present an “alternative” to voters but in the end don’t make major changes, they’re just like a ratchet only going in one direction. That any have voted at all for Trump appointees under this regime instead standing opposed in solidarity doesn’t beat the rap of them being that. And how they want more corporatists to run than actual progressives and they will go all out on progressive candidates to the point of compromising their position to do so.
