  • What if his goal is to own a small island nation or a city state (the kind you see in cyberpunk). Then destroying current world order and economy, while speed running into a massive crisis is kind of the only thing that would let him play dictator with a private militia.

    I’m guessing most billionaires think they can toughen out the hard times and come out as the new monarchy if it happens. As they start to feel threatened, many of them will probably be in favor of it.

    Idk, I just feel like I see people under estimate him and it feels good to laugh but you don’t get to where he is by being a moron. Most people see him losing but his goals don’t align with the nation, so losing an extra 300 billion might actually help his objectives (or the objectives of those pulling the strings). I guess he might be a stupid puppet, but in that case, it wouldn’t be him actually deciding.
















  • It’s a common Israeli talking point to associate any critique of their government with antisemitism.

    It’s very transparent.

    It’s the same people acting as mouthpieces that are silent when Israel actually targets hospitals or their soldiers torture babies and rape prisoners. Hard to pretend they aren’t the ones indoctrinated to hate a specific set of people.

    Your hate towards anyone that isnt subservient to Israel has turned a massively shitty theocratic regime into some kind of weird underdog worth cheering for.

    It’s like if Italy and Germany were fighting in WW2 and you dont understand why people are cheering on Italy, but even more, you actually think the Nazis are the good guys. Everyone else is simply going “they both suck but one is clearly worse than the other, because of the genocide and all”.

    Put all the quotes that you like but you are either against Zionism or pro genocide.
