Then how come the Ukranian War sperging was sumarily forbidden?

I'm pretty sure the Ukrainian war sperging is a long running sore spot (which is why we have like 3 seperate threads for discussing every possible stance you could have on it) because nobody fuckin agrees on it and it causes massive infighting whenever it's brought up, so even when it is relevant to discussing us politics you're still pissing people off.

DOGE Derailing the Gravy Train​

Cartoon published 03/11/2025

We’ve often heard the term “gravy train” lately in reference to the Democrat Party’s corrupt method of raking in taxpayer dollars for themselves. The gravy symbolizes money, of course and the train has been steadily delivering it to the Democrats for many decades.

The money flowed to NGOs and sub-NGOs, where the money was laundered and used to further the power of Democrats. The various agencies created by Democrats proved worthless—the Department of Education, USAID, and FEMA for examples. They must be eliminated.

​

President Trump’s DOGE team has derailed the gravy train and the Democrats are furious. Elon Musk’s Tesla dealerships are being firebombed and his charging stations burned. This is to be expected perhaps—the formerly well-funded Deep State isn’t going down without a fight. The corruption is still being revealed—and it’s staggering, but the Democrats aren’t are mostly upset that it’s being revealed. They are angry their gravy train has been derailed.

Trump’s term has barely started and there remains a lot of work to do. We need to reveal just how senile Biden was and determine who was really running the Oval Office. We need to find out for sure whether or not Fort Knox still houses the nation’s gold. We need to end the war in Ukraine, much to the war-mongering Democrats’ anger. We need to get out of NATO. We need to end the IRS and Federal Reserve. Trump and his appointees must continue to work tirelessly to keep the Swamp draining while they bring justice to those who broke the law.



Meanwhile, the Democrats are losing their collectivist minds. Their party is a train wreck and they have no engineer.

The GDP is an indicator of how much faggots like to sell to niggers, and very little else. It's a decent indicator of economic movement, but not of economic health, or even of ability. Politicians and """economists""" focus on the GDP/Legalized Gambling when they don't give a shit about the actual cost of living index and everything else that surrounds actual people economics, y'know, the economics that actually fucking matter since people buying is necessary for linegoup.

I'm convinced that economists believe that people aren't just obligated to buy, but are calculated to buy like some machine. Would really explain modern corporate confusion as to why so many products fail because people have opinions and needs.

Since you are retarded as shit and need to be forcibly sterilized to keep you from churning retarded mini mes who eat shit out of the toilet and call it Christmas Candy, Ill spell it out for you.

The Holocaust was the first industrial genocide post Industrial Revolution and Hitler racked up the high score for killing Jews via the Holocaust and came the closest anyone ever came of killing all the Jews in Europe....

The scale and scope was so great PLUS the Nazis leaving so much God damn evidence behind, that Europe couldn't sweep it under the rug like they normally do with pogroms against Jews. So it led to a global reckoning on the issue of Antisemitism and made it utterly unacceptable and led to Israel's creation at long last.

THAT IS WHY IT IS A BIG DEAL

This is the issue I have with some of the "based" crowd I don't need to go unto retarded denial claims of German war crimes and hear unironic muh Germans was good boys and didin du nuffin.
Look I'm well aware the geopolitics of ww2 and how we got there are less Hitler was muh evil force and more of a lack of deterrence combined with insane polices of Germany must perish without the force to back up said threats to neighbors didn't exactly make the allies look good either.
I swear it sucks trying to be someone trying to decipher the bullshit.

But Swingleton, that's how they want to protest! How dare you tell them they can't do something. They want to do it! They want to they want to they want to!!!

Remember, fascism is when the government forces you to face reasonable legal consequences for breaking the law (when you're a leftist).

McDonald’s:
Open later
Has a larger Menu
Has more limited time and seasonal options
Massively better French fries even post beef tallow
Has a deal with Coca Cola to get the highest quality syrup
Uses better pipes so drinks are colder
Has a faster system for getting food out
Had a better app with better customization options
Has a much larger drink selection including smoothies, slushies, juices, and coffee
Bought out Tim Horton’s’ original coffee suppler so that Tim Hortons was forced to change to a different, inferior coffee
Splits the menu between breakfast and lunch to allow for better cooking conditions
Usually has higher paid and better trained staff
Can be found in literally every city in America an in every country
Has better kids meals
Has significantly better deserts

I like Wendy’s and Burger King, and they definitely have strengths of their own like fresher meat and bigger patties, but McDonald’s is overall a vastly superior franchise. Especially if you specify to the staff that you want all of your food cooked fresh, which they have to comply with and results in the best fast food you can have

Now that is pure conviction, conviction I don't know I would have had in that same situation. On one hand I want to say that the troons are so hated and have lost so much influence that they can't get people to agree with them at gunpoint, on the other hand I think people are so done with them that they'll risk getting shot in the head to tell them to fuck off. Probably a little of both.

The Cycle of Corruption: What If Each Generation Was Worse Than the Last?

• Cooperation is a more effective strategy than treachery (see: pack animals; game theory, etc).
• Treachery is parasitic, and survives at a level based on the health of the host and the ability to be detected and removed.
• Technology empowers both the virtuous and the corrupt.
• Earth isn't getting any bigger, and the ability for secrecy is currently diminishing. This makes treachery less viable.
• Corruption reduces the health of the host.
• Powerful oligarchs are still only human; within the human bellcurve of IQ.
• Corrupt oligarchs lack trust in each other. That's a defining feature of being treacherous. They expend a percentage of their resources maintaining their corrupt network.

Every so often technology creates a paradigm shift in civilization. There is an "arms race" to utilize it for your groups benefit. A large war probably happens. The winners set up a system to maximize the output of society for their benifit. Corruption grows with this productivity boom. After a human lifespan (≈80 years) the corrupt network begins to fall apart. New technology threatens to radically change how the system works. The cycle begins again.
