The true believers as always. There's always a hardcore group of support which will believe whatever you say, no matter what you do, and no matter how much your actions may hurt them. In this case virtue signalling suburbanites and the usual urban bughive critters who'd rather double down on the insanity and ignore the rank hypocrisy than admit they're wrong.

The normies I know are largely oblivious, they just know he's better than Trump because the news AND celebrities don't tell them 24/7 that Biden is bad, like they did with Trump. So they guess he must be okay. Remember they are working most of the time, and only get most of their news in snippets from the most mainstream of mainstream sources.

Most don't even know Biden supposedly got 15 million more votes than Obama.

When I was a kid there was an old joke about a Dem and a Con in rowboat that starts to sink. There's one life jacket, and the two agree to vote on it. The Dem wins the lifejacket 138-0.

Chicago: Vote early, vote often.

There's been fixes and shit at everything from the local level on up for decades, hell, centuries.

That ballot box stuffing scene in Gangs of New York is historical, not drama.

Because they don't want more people having the realization that the odds of winning elections decades in a row are fucking absurd.

Even if the odds were 50/50 who the fuck wins ten consecutive coin flips? Then realize that's the situation for half of our governing officials.

Well we know it's been that way some time after the CIA was created. You can go on wikipedia and find out most of the people that broke into Watergate were CIA, Ford; the Man that replaced both Nixon and his VP. Was the man that was on the Warren Commission. The same commission that absolved the CIA of any involvement in the JFK assassination.

This was in 1972.

That's a lot more complicated, and significantly more schizo-sounding than just bringing up the fact that the probability of ten heads in a row is absurd, especially when extrapolated out to the rest of the government officials who have been serving for over a decade.

Equally suspicious is the lack of competitors or things that happen to come to light about potential challengers to these "incumbents". There's a reason so many people think the system isn't rigged and it's not just media manipulation, you tell a normal person verbatim what you just posted and they'll just dismiss what you're saying.

If you're looking to explain that the system is rigged to somebody you need to keep it simple, is what I'm saying. And they're worried, correctly, that they overplayed their hand and made the rigging too obvious.

Yes it sounds schizo because it requires an open mind and a lot of research into history. I don't expect the average person to listen to me. Because they simply aren't in that frame of reference. But just bringing up things look kinda dodgy isn't going to sway the average person either. If they suspected something and had the time and drive to do so, they would've done so themselves by now.

The more I learn, the more these old proverbs end up being prophetic. "You can lead a Horse to water, but you can't make them drink".

Kenyan President William Ruto signed an agreement with Saudi Arabia to buy oil for Kenyan shillings instead of US dollars.

I don't know how this managed to sneak past everyone, this is a big attack on the Petrodollar that seemingly was ignored.

Well you have to admit they are mostly right. I can't talk to my family about most stuff like this. They'll believe the box in the living room or their phone over you.

My parents (at least my mom anyways) is JUST opening their eyes to the crazy shit that's going on in the world and my mom absolutely HATES it. This is a woman who lives in a bubble for most of her life.

She had to re-take her broker (real estate) exam, and apparently her teacher was discussing about how they can't discriminate againt furries and explained to her and the rest of the class what a furry actually is. Ontop of that, the teacher was also discussing about how parents were sending their boys to school in dresses.

Needless to say, it broke my mom a bit.

I'm guessing the Biden Admin is either assuming that A: It will take longer than they need to worry about for the dollar to lose its solid position in the rest of the financial system (Reasonable, but not guaranteed) or that B: They'd really rather not draw any attention to it less they fuck up the possibility of A happening. There's still no viable USD successor for global backing, and the US still controls by far the largest consumer market (By dollar, not heads) and financial market in the world. Those two factors alone mean the USD will continue to be peerless until one changes, and with just one will still be more than globally competitive. The Consumer market trend could , but the Financial Market would require pants on head retarded government policies, beyond even what we've seen now, to dislodge and send overseas.

That's the fun part, they don't seem to consider it foreign policy. Once you've drank the woke definition of human rights, you just consider it basic decency to drive this shit into every corner of the world regardless of their opinions on it.

I told you guys: The Negro respects strength, and Biden's bosses put absolutely no image of strength forward whatsoever. They are all carrot no stick. Why would you care about some who can never back up their threats? Someone whose only weapon is to wag their finger at you and say "for shame"?
