Ha! I’m only 1/4 Mong!

I think I’m probably a lot different than I’m viewed here, and that’s really my fault.

Gavin and Stacy! Ha! Well played! I think we were watching the series around the time we got married. Not sure what happened to the dvd set, or that the series aged very well. I feel like I’d have been happier had I married a Welsh girl instead of an English girl. The accent is much cuter and happier.

No really the truth is that I’m not suitable for relationships or being close to anyone.. regardless of nationality. South Wales would be a perfect location to be a hermit.

This has taken a confessional turn! Can we discuss Trump’s apparent dementia adled AI obsession?  ;D

We should start at Croeso I Cymru! thread.... And now back to black helicopters and half-arsed pull ups...

I don’t know how you went from the dems need a leader to macho Mark Cuban, but I don’t want a billionaire anywhere near the oval office than they already are. Another rich and famous reality tv starring businessman is not America’s answer. Quit normalizing rich, famous people buying political seats.

I would take a win from anywhere at this point.

I keep seeing people say it should be AOC or someone similar and I’m like “did you pay any attention to exit polls and interviews of people who left the party?”

The only person I’d make an exception for would be Jon Stewart, but I’d prefer him in congress like Al Franken.

Also, my condolences to any Federal Employee Pals. Hopefully this shutdown ends well and ya’ll can get paid.

At present, who I want to be in charge is second to just stopping the destruction. It is hard to watch what is happening. We have a president who is telling the military about preparing for a war from within and is sending troops to cities he doesn't like, and cutting funding for blue states. We have an administration full of idiots pushing for some of the worst policy decisions that are going to haunt us forever. Not to mention millions are likely to die because of Trump's foreign aid cuts and medical cuts within America.

Cuban is far from my dream, as I'd much prefer an AOC or Bernie or Warren, but if a Mark Cuban being in charge would save us from this administration and its harm, well it is a compromise I'm willing to accept. At present, I just want anyone who isn't a monster to obtain power and stop what is happening. I feel Cuban would be a good bet to actually win an election.

Trump cutting funding to blue states (like NYs transit budget) that didn’t vote for him. No other president in history has acted like this and for some reason, GOP keeps trying to justify and normalize it. Pure insanity.

Then news this morning is he’s meeting with P25 founder to figure out which “Democratic Agencies” to cut and defund.

Realizing how important it is that his old, unhealthy ass makes it to the next election.   Things will get dicey a lot faster if VP Vance succeeds before then.

I thought this too, but do people respect/fear Vance as much as they do Trump? I get couches fear him for they think he'll fuck em, but I don't think he has the leverage Trump has.

Anyways, I don't know how the WH Press Sec can get in front of the camera everyday, clutch her cross, proclaim herself a good Catholic, then blatantly lie. Here she is saying how it's okay for Trump to create quid-pro-quos in order to get his demands even though the GOP is 100% responsible for this shutdown (and he responsible for 30% off all shutdowns in US history).

Sortaaaaa…. the crazy cultists are only really crazy cultists for Trump. The techno-fascist faction has little to no charisma or appeal. On paper they’re more dangerous, but their policies and intentions are hugely unpopular across the board. No one wants to roll over for some billionaire nerd punch-bowl turd.

I’m not worried about a trump third term eve though he’s acting and behaving like someone’s who’s sticking around for a while.   He’s still an old unhealthy man.   

Vance worried me because of the Thiels and Ellison that placed him where he is.   We saw what havoc Elon created along with his insinuation that he hacked the vote in PA.   Vance has no personal values, he’s a chess piece to be moved by shadowy figures.   

Vance’s complete lack of charisma is why I worry about him getting to be president without needing to be voted in

GOP knows damn well they can't get away with this much without Trump, so if he did have a stroke, I truly believe they'd hide the fact. Hell, if he died, the GOP would string him up and bust a Weekend at Bernies in order to make sure he stays the face of their policies.

I think you're right. I thought Vance would be way more fucked for you guys, but shit, who's gonna simp for J.D? Anyway, what could he possibly do that's worse than what Trump is getting up to?
Now, we used to say we put on our tights to put on the world. So I don't think it tarnishes the image at all.

Doesn’t matter who’s going to simp for him if he’s already in office.  And do you think Silicon Valley can’t manufacture artificial support?   Do you think Peter Thiel’s end goal for Vance was to be VP?

The problem is with Thiel types and his rich ilk is that they literally offer no concessions to anyone. What is the appeal? It’s very apparent that the ultra wealthy have forgotten that it is in their best interest to atleast leave some breadcrumbs for the unwashed masses. These are people that just simply only know how to take. They don’t know how to play the game outside of money. Trump is in a way a fluke, a rarity, an anomaly that has a dedicated group following him to the depths of hell. I don’t think, or imagine Thiel, Musk, Zuckerberg ever finding another unicorn like that, no matter how much money they throw at the situation.

The point is that if we all lose everything, it does not bode well for the few that took that from the masses or have hoarded absolutely everything. The truth is, people, these extremely wealthy people need PEOPLE to prop them up and make them who they are. The hungry masses will not do that, they will eat them alive. That’s why their whole ideology is sci-fi fantasy bullshit. No one is rolling over for them no matter how much surveillance or brute force they’d thrust on us.

Agreed. I think people believe that when the orange pedophile passes on that will be the end of it. The irony is, the fact that vance has the charisma and brains of a fucking horseshoe is way more dangerous and appealing for anyone looking to get close to the seat of US power. Lizard-in-human-skin suit thiel has been trying to play god for a long time, and him and his fuck buddy alex karp over at palintir are psychopaths. Could you imagine what they would attempt if vance became the president?

Even if that wasn't the case, say trump is out of the picture and vance takes his place, what then?

"Sorry Americans, christian fascism isn't working and is completely fucked up. We'll return things back to normal and face full accountability for our crimes. Deportations, over. Murder of civilians by ice, over. Those maga friends and family you cut out of your life? Let em back in! He's dead and we're all good! We return the keys to your democracy, rfk has approved vaccine research and stephen miller is going back to being too weak to strangle hookers."

 

Larry Ellison, founder of Oracle and father of Paramount owner David Ellison, is apparently getting a controlling stake in TikTok due to the forced sale of the platform. The surveillance angle has come back up because Ellison advocated for an AI surveillance state during an Oracle earnings call last year. TikTok is a likely testing ground as much of the anti-Zionist movement lives there (at least that's what they think.) This is all pretty much straight out of the Dark Enlightenment playbook, which is an blackpill accelerationist ideology that aims to cause society's collapse which would allow the tech oligarchs to form new corporate governments. The recent Alien Earth show reflected this kind of society.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Enlightenment



^ This right here is what people don't pay enough attention to. That piece of sentient feces yarvin is very fucking dangerous in a way that cannot be understated, and has the ear and close associations of both vance, and thiel (they have admitted this). His ideas have found stock with the tech crowd, prominent political figures, conservatives, racists, far right activists, and the like. That soundbite on fox news about 'just kill the homeless'? yea, yarvin has been preaching that shit for years, more specifically using the homeless as diesel fuel. But it's just a joke right? The card says 'moops'.

(Fun Fact: He also recently spent time with renaud camus for some shitty doc. Look it up. Yes, renaud camus,  brevik's favorite author, anal polyp in human form, and originator of the 'great replacement' conspiracy theory. What's that you say? charlie k also believed in that shit? color me shocked!) This is who has the ear of the current us vice president (and vance's benefactor) by jd's  own admission. This is how close an actual calculated and dangerous idealogue is to the white house. Not a sloppy drug-addeled narcissist like elon, peterson, trump, or shapiro, but someone who has spent years trying to figure out how to tear shit down in the US and has the motivation, support and connections to do so.

This is reading like I'm wearing a tin foil hat, sure. But there are people in the background and around trump like ellison, thiel, elon, and yarvin, that actually have a vested interest in going beyond and fucking up the US on a grand scale for the sake of power, money, an ethnostate, or whatever other bonkers shit they have in mind.

Seems that things are a little too far gone to be repaired in a way that puts an effective and reversible halt to the damage done. It's a very optimistic take to think all of that just washes away when that diaper wearing asshole is dead.


But hey, I could be wrong. Have been drinking a little more lately.

On top of all this, what scares me is that Vance is horrible and unlikable, but he can put on a show at times.

I expected Walz to wipe the floor with him in the VP debate. Walz prepared for the wrong debate. Vance hid his darker side during the debate and pretended to be human for a couple hours. Completely took Walz off his footing and didn't allow Walz's good guy persona to shine through.

Vance's 4chan level of "it was just a joke" makes it easy for him to switch into whatever false persona he wants to share. He's a creep but one that shape shifts for his own benefit. This benefits him cause Cruz and Ron DeSantis can't be anything but rude at all times.


Also, I have zero faith in the Democrats ability to get a message out right now. They shut down the gov and got distracted with a meme troll of Jefferies in a Sombrero and took the bait of reacting to it. And, I worry they are leaning into healthcare just cause it polls well as a strength for Democrats and it is what won the previous mid-term for them. It isn't 2018, push something new. React to the moment not the past.

How about we make it about cost of living due to tariffs? A little bit of hard sell cause we cut ourselves with that one by telling everyone the economy was great during the election, not realizing the economy and the ability for people to get ahead are two different things. How about we focus in on farmers needing bailouts with our tax money cause we aren't exporting. We introduced tariffs "to make America Great" and we are selling less shit. Hammer that we want to support people in need, but we don't want to pay bills that were being paid by other countries. Bring on a farmer who will say, "We don't want hand outs, we want to go back to working hard for good pay" or some other stupid platitude.

I'd say add in making it about weaponizing the DOJ and FBI for personal vendettas, but I don't think most Americans don't give a shit.

I get what you guys are saying, but look how much trouble ICE is having recruiting people, and that’s even offering ridiculous incentives. At the very most the ultra wealthy could hire private military, but then they’d have to contend with actual military and guerrilla insurgents. Even then, what are concessions even worth in a broken society and economy? Money only works if society maintains a baseline status quo, which these fools seem to want to entirely dismantle.

The basic fact is also this. Less people have a stomach for war and violence than society likes to imagine. All those rabid frothy mouth hillbilly ignorants talk a big game, but would they pull the trigger? Not all of them! Some of them sure, but they aren’t actionable types. Some still have a conscience, and seeing innocents injured, maimed or killed will not sit well with them. Humans are still humans at the end of the day.

You’re not wrong to worry about it. They’re gonna use every trick in the book to stay or keep their power. They are incredibly powerful, but we’re the ones that empower them. These people are so full of themselves they forget who makes their coffee, fixes their meals, dry cleans their clothes, and wipes their asses. We make their world turn, and they are so incompetent they are incapable of doing any of this on their own. Infact, it’s comical they refer to certain individuals as “useless eaters”, because that’s the very thing they themselves embody.

The way the world currently functions needs to be tore down wholesale. The economic structure needs to be shattered to disempower these individuals.

A small start is getting the Epstein files out there. These people are on it, and everyone needs to know what they did. It all starts with a spark.
