I mean Tim, if you wanted me to stop using maps you could have just asked, you didn’t need to insert ads.

Always a pleasure to see your work.

Everyone remember this guy has a patreon!

I kinda feel it would be funnier if we weren’t under it when it collapsed.

He might live in Phoenix.

“More presidential.”

Such great art… support his patreon if you can!

Pure Socialism is a society where resources are shared as equally as possible across all participants. Resources are distributed as appropriately as possible to create what is needed, excess is distributed with as little waste as possible. Communism has a centralized body to distribute these resources.

Well that just, like, your opinion, man.

Assuming we’re thinking of the same place, you have to deal with a large group of people who have been fooled, and are about to get very angry and need a target they can reach for their anger. Highlighting mid to high level members of their party leadership as the people to blame allows them to hold their great leader blameless, protecting their egos, while at the same time ripping down the pillars that prop up that same leader. Calling for new blood to support… whatever leader you’re talking about, and voting out “those idiots that aren’t giving him what he needs and so we all are suffering” allows the malleable followers to self destruct the party apparatus like ants eating away the bones of an elephant.

I personally like the theory that they caught him using five eyes data, and skip the step where they write “US citizen” in the transcripts

“ let’s get you a scrum-rifle and see what you can do to improve your stats.”

More! More!

Well, clearly you are not a bot on reddit then.

Adam something is such a strange name, too.

Timmy has a competing lemonade stand with your kid, and he charges $1 for a glass and you charge $3 for a glass. Rather than lowering your prices, you place a $2.50 tariff on any lemonade from Timmy in your neighborhood. Now everyone pays $3.50 for his lemonade, and it only makes sense for your kid to charge $3.50 as well, because Timmy’s lemonade has to get to your neighborhood while yours is local, so why not pocket that 50 cents.

In this scenario, Timmy cannot sell his cheaper lemonade to your neighborhood at a cheaper price. Everyone in your neighborhood must pay the new inflated price. People in other neighborhoods will go to Timmy, so only your neighborhood buys your lemonade, although some people will try to circumvent the tariffs by buying Timmy’s same lemonade for $2 in a neighboring area.

Populism is fairly simple, you just parrot the following talking points:

The system isn’t working. I am fighting the system. Elect me and I’ll take the fight to them.

What isn’t working should be as vague as possible, so the voter believes it is the thing they’re angry about. When elected, the candidate should continue to complain about the system and crow about how hard they’re fighting for you, so you keep voting for them.

Unfortunately, this eventually leads to you actually passing legislation that makes everything much, much worse than it was. You can keep blaming the other side, but eventually, the jig is up.

I heard when he got married, his new mother-in-law required six surgeons to remove the shit-eating grin she had after her next Sunday mah jong game.
