US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[NyQuilninja]

The idea of a unified group with a single interest is an invention of movie-brained boomers and lizard people tier schizos. Unelected bureaucrats creating de facto legislation(ex: the ATF) and sticking around through multiple administrations will always be a problem. In the U.S. the problem has come to a head because: A) the executive branch has accrued too much power B) said bureaucrats, whatever their motivations happen to be, act with malice towards regular Americans.

Greed apathy and corruption old as time it's self
As progress continued Americans became less independent more reliant on the government because systems became more complex this trust has slowly been eroded as our government has shown relentlessly they can't be trusted this causes resentment which then causes micro revolutions and we're seeing that play out right now the movements in the 60s and 70s are coming to fruition

IT WAS HER TURN!

Literally that. They had all planned out for 8 years of Hillary and he fucked them and collapsed a massive, decades long plan by just being too much of a human meme. And the worst part is they did it themselves because Hillary asked for Trump to be showcased on TV as she thought he would be easier to beat.

The left's sense of entitlement for the presidency would only grow leading up to 2020 and it will only get bigger by year's end. Honestly part of me hopes Biden loses next year because of the DNC's poor sportsmanship after they won in 2020.

OK so if Ukraine becomes a full on NATO member that pretty much means war with Russia and it's block.

I guess that's really what the elites want, full on world war with the eastern block.

My question is why? What do the big-wigs of the West gain by dragging everyone into the meat grinder? The economy of the West is already teetering on the ragged edge of imploding and now they want out right war across the globe?

I just don't get it.

Switching to a war economy solves a lot of problems they have. Or at least, would have in previous eras.

They'd get to kill off a bunch of native Europeans and Americans by sending them to die. They'd get to spread money around to manufacturing weapons and the like. They'd get to distract everyone from every other fuckup and change the subject. They'd get to use patriotism in order to threaten any dissenters. They'd have an instant case for "we can't drop Biden now, we're in the middle of something important." Et cetera, et cetera.

Remember, Biden is using a Bush era EO to pull people out of retirement and back into the military, as of this week. So they're clearly planning something, and apparently it's becoming obvious that the DEI hires are either too incompetent to fight a war or they realized when the planes touch down to be loaded up for the middle east Shaniqua is gonna tell them to go fuck themselves, and there's not enough white boys left in the military to make up the difference.

War solves a LOT of their problems.

So far the only alternative has been a more fully government controlled and complex and command/planned economy as an alternative. I don't see that many pushing for any 'revolution' either way. What would replace it? A laissez faire system, or closer? More Big L Libertarian?

Or a more controlled system that's top down like socialism/marxism.

I frankly think that in the middle is the best, and we're kind of dancing angels on a pin over the details now. But Biden sucks and needs to go. Trump's fine, and good for him.

I read that shit in the 1990s

As for the Ukraine shit, it cant legally join nato other nato member wont agree to it.

 

[General Emílio Médici]

I keep thinking about this one short story I read once about a American Civil War scenario, especially after 2016 and the increasingly deranged way parts of the government keep trying to return to a status quo that doesn't exist anymore while another part of it are true believers on the New Normal and want to enact it.

What I saw at the coup

Given the apparent desire to start saber rattling and military build up I wouldn't put it past delusional boomers afraid of losing power so close to their "victory" and bright eyed utopian progressives drunk on "this time it will work" pulling out something absolutely fucked.

 

[Snekposter]

Nah she really has aged that much. Rumor has it she is drinking -constantly-, so what we are seeing is the effects of alcoholism.

Oh, great, so she's following in Pelosi's footsteps and trying to ascend to lichdom.

you're already flagged

Yep, welcome to Kiwi Farms. Pretty sure the Feds flag you and start assembling a dossier the minute you create an account.

Almost every one of the publicly available versions of the Terrorist's Handbook have sabotogued instructions that will either kill you or be harmless duds if you tried to do anything in them. The real ones get you put on a list and then you get to discover just how many everyday things you do are actually felonies if someone wants to look at you and squint real hard.

On top of that considering leftists tend not to be the sharpest tools in the shed the chances of them blowing themselves up even with a legit copy are pretty damn high. Anything beyond a Molotov is beyond them, and even then they sometimes forget to soak the rag before use.

As for the Ukraine shit, it cant legally join nato other nato member wont agree to it.

Yep. It requires a unanimous vote of all other NATO members and there's no way the Chief Roach will give up his only leverage over the West, that being Turkey's ability to keep the Russian Black Sea Fleet out of the Mediterranean. If Ukraine starts hosting NATO strike assets the Black Sea becomes a second NATO mare nostrum, and Turkey's control over the Bosporus is no longer necessary to NATO's strategic aims.

Everyone's flagged. Literally. You had a traffic ticket or any arrest? Flagged. You don't? That makes you stand out, flagged.

Worrying about being on lists isn't worth it. I'm probably on hundreds of lists. Just using a VPN or watching the quarterpounder or AVGN has you on some list that some office guy in DC can look you up. Snowden flat out said this in 2013 with the gov XKeyscore

I read that shit in the 1990s

for me it was loompanics

also on Cookbooks iirc Jolly Roger had some stuff that worked, like "you can tap the hangup button to do pulse dialing if there's no buttons" and I think "stuff a tennis ball with strike-anywhere matches" works if you can find a ton of strike anywheres
I don't think it really damages things, but it at least booms

 

[General Emílio Médici]

A lot of the stuff having to do with bombs is easy if you just have basic common sense. Start small, make prototypes and test runs, always assume it is going to kill you and treat it accordingly. If you need detailed instructions with precise and careful handholding steps on exactly how to make a bomb you probably aren't cut for the job mentally and physically.

You will be on a list anyway, might as well go for the high score. And of course clog the fuck out of the records so the Antichrist has too much fog of war going on to be successful.

The market is a mess. It doesn't track well with company performance, inflation, or general economics. It's only a bit better than a shitcoin crypto market, and you have to be selective on that. Really, when it comes to stocks, it's mostly just gambling unless you do a Gordon Growth Formula approach with dividends. Most of it's in mutual funds anyway, which are a few penthouse living Jews in NYC that pick and choose.

The real economy died in 2008. GDP per capita has never recovered. The fed bought tons of debt and issued low interest rates for a decade plus.

Low interest rates truly were a method of passing down the costs for short term gain. Nasty business there.

Don't forget the bailout program that allowed boomers to refinance at 2% rates despite their houses losing 40% of their value and their mortgages being underwater.

The MIC hasn't had a good war since Biden's disastrous pullout but f Afghanistan and they are chomping at the bit.

We all know the elites have a lot of dirty laundry in Ukraine, but maybe we grossly underestimated the extent of it. That's my best guess at the moment. Either that or they're just so far removed from reality that they don't realize the consequences of a war on this scale...or they think their ivory tower will keep them safe from it all and couldn't care less about anyone else.

Zelensky has made it clear in closed channels that he has some kind of dead man's switch that will fuck the elites of the West if he falls. Cutthroat, but he's doing what he has to and the West has proven to be fucking fickle and shortsighted allies to anyone not named Israel.

The silent generation relics in charge of the federal government deeply yearn for the cold war. They loved the atmosphere of fear and paranoia, being able to play global taskmaster, the pain, death, and misery they were able to cause.

War is nothing but upsides for American politicians. They make unholy amounts of cash from MIC contracts at the cost of people they didn't ever give a shit about, so why wouldn't they want a war? Their blood is never on the line.

Switching to a war economy solves a lot of problems they have. Or at least, would have in previous eras.

They are so far removed from war that they don't comprehend the costs and that is a dangerous place to be. Hell, the upper brass in our military hardly know the costs after the Obama administration culling.

We would have been at war with Russia by March 2016 if Clinton got into office.

I wasn't arguing the validity of the system just how we got here.

 

[Rome's rightful successor]

Of course Jews who have been busy conquering Palestine and its neighbors for a century would never dare dream of such spoils. How utterly out of character for them to grasp at the planet as if they already own it while laboring under the farcically pathetic delusion that they are a master race whose blood god demands - besides plentiful blood sacrifices - that they restore their fabled homeland to its exact state of pre-fall glory.

Who could believe such a thing. Total conspiracy fevre dream. No people could be such genocidal bloodthirsty demons.

I've been joking about the sacrificing of the red heifers to friends, but I guess some take it serious.

Though I'd love to see a 3rd Temple (built, spiritually Christian or physically Jew) and the Dome of the Rock and Al Aqsa blasted off the temple mount, I don't think that'll be later this month.

I don't know, you should not force the hand of god. He works when he intends to.
