And I’m not talking about the ones in power, more the rank and file.
I speculated this wrecking ball approach to the US economy was an attempt to destabilize the world and marshall the forces of violent fascism, and make the battle for hegemony one of attrition since the Us no longer sees itself capable of competing with China’s manufacturing capabilities.
So, like, what does the average Joe think? That while everything around him comes crumbling down, all the trans and blacks will at least be put in their place?
I’m wondering if the debate around the seemingly confusing motivations are due to…too much of a materialist approach? I think it’s either that or absolutism when it comes to the dialectic and taking these thoughts to their logical conclusions
I’ve seen more than one come in with “He’s just playing the long game, wait and see.”
Trust the plan, patriots are in control.
This is the chud equivalent of “Can’t wait to see Drumpf try wriggling his way out of this mess.”
Just wait a little bit more and he’ll prove he’s actually a genius
I said this with Kayne and was rather disappointed with the outcome.
I try to see the good in everything. While Kanye was a piece of shit for what he said, he did unintentionally (big emphasis on unintentionally) manage to point out the hypocrisy western media has.
Jerry Seinfeld and Amy Schumer could say the same horrific shit about arabs / Palestinians and never got their bank accounts closed or became social pariahs.
Until someone else gets power and can immediately be blamed for the damage
People will hang on for a long time as long as there is a ‘common sense’ narrative for why it has to be so. Just look at Mileil, he is still popular despite running the Argentinian economy into the ground since there is a narrative that it needs to be done.
Oh man, this remided me of a thread on Hacker News from a couple of months ago when Mileil rugpulled a memecoin. So many people defending him on the grounds that he’s “done good for the Argentinian economy.” He can’t do bad in these people’s eyes, truly. One commenter even praised him getting rid of erroneous spending like rent control.
