President Donald Trump

President Donald Trump

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at

Vance had at least 2 or 2 1/2 years of political experience before becoming our chief negotiator for an inept president and executive branch. I don’t know how you could reasonable expect excellence on the world stag3 by this clown.

The world stage is full of non-white and non-Christian people who aren't prepared to roll over and die for the white Christian supremacist regime we have become.

The US used to have leverage as a result of an image of caring about human rights, justice and democracy. Now we're just transparent bullies with waning leverage and no moral authority.

There isn't any amount of experience that could overcome that.

In a lot of ways, we seem to be pivoting toward the fictional isolationist nation depicted in Handmaid's Tale.


Apparently, Sean Penn has a project in the works to make a movie about the events of January 6th, 2021 from the perspective of a police officer who was defending the capitol.

Should be an interesting insight in Trump World.

The resume difference between people that led the JCPOA like Moniz and boys like Vance is pretty staggering.


Postmaster general confirms plan to block ballots in states that balk at Trump’s demands

U.S. Postal Service to refuse to deliver mail ballots in states
that fail to turn over voter rolls to the Trump administration

the proposed rule basically coerces states to conform to these
new requirements and hand over their absentee voter rolls,
or face the consequences of not being able to vote by mail

Being white and middle class, you feel less threatened by Trump.

Playing the race card and the class-warfare card in the same hand. I'm impressed!

He's also a man and probably straight, so you missed your opportunity for quads!


Fun fact, white is not a race. It’s not anything! A fabricated social construct I guess.


The Nazis at least claimed (falsely) to be Aryans.

White pride is a mental condition.

Being 'proud' of one's skin pigmentation is of course ridiculous.

But then, what isn't?

What isn’t a mental condition?

Joy. Equanimity. Lovingkindness. Compassion. The Sublime Abodes.

White skin is real. It's an indicator of ancient tribal orientation associated with those who migrated to areas with limited sun.

White skin is biologically different than black skin in its ability to absorb Vitamin D. Watch the Olympic 100m final and tell me how many white people you see ? That's not because white people don't want to be able to run fast. Make a list of the all-time best basketball players. Larry Bird is the only white guy in the top 10. It's not because white people don't want to be great at basketball. NFL running backs, same story.

People with white skin living in cold areas had to make different survival adaptations requiring them to construct shelters which were fortified against the cold. They had to learn to spend more time indoors and develop more robust clothing.

When it comes time for a population reduction, people organize and compete along tribal lines.

White people have used their skin color to justify their hierarchical superiority and rationalize the existence of institutions like slavery until very recently in human history.

Trump's racist father was a documented discriminant in housing against black Americans.


For what it's worth, I am certainly not a racist.

I want all people to live happily and healthy.

The question we need to ask is how do we decide who lives and who dies when there is a resource shortfall that results in the population exceeding carrying capacity ?

No one can articulate a fair way of doing this and no one is going to volunteer to remove themselves from the population.

Racism is simply an arbitrary way of sorting the population into rival groups for a survival of the fittest struggle. Is it fair or just ? Absolutely not.

We live in a world with some inherent brutality. If we want to avoid the need to tap into that brutal side of ourselves, then we need to embrace the policies which are contrary to those leading toward resource shortfall.


If you want an example of a construct, it's religion.

The GOP voter base is largely supportive of a Christian tribally dominated nation.

They have no general allegiance whatsoever to living in accordance with the example of Jesus Christ who fed the poor. They embrace a racist leader in Trump who is in open contempt of the Pope. A leader who gutted social welfare programs.

It's a competitive tribal survival cult which is organizing to attempt to dominate other tribes.

You could always revisit one of the 15+ threads you made that actually asked this exact question.

Which at the time, you claimed maybe offing the old and those without any skills

by Nut Nut

How about age as a consideration ? Let's say you have seniors who had the benefit of many years of life already and are no longer adding anything productive to society vs children ?

How about skill as a consideration ? The ability to add value to whatever society emerges in the future and contribute to future survival ?

But you'll get plenty of deaths under your system so I'd just hold of a little on the old or the handicapped.

The capacity for compassion is not mental.

It's deeper than that.

Serial killers / predators don't wake up one day and make a cognitive decision to torture and kill. Sadism is built into their DNA.

An empath who sees the suffering of others and is brought to tears ..... that's part of their constitution.

When Trump stated that he doesn't give a thought to people's economic pain as a result of the Iran war he was being honest. He truly doesn't give a **** about the experience of other people.

That's not mental. That's his genetic construction.

Would you care to provide some evidence to support that assertion ?

Beyond the reality that we all die anyway .... is there something about the system I propose which would result in people dying prematurely ?

The part where literally billions of people around the world would reject and all you have atm are your Community Captains to ensure and carry out the directives. How many pushups can they do? Could I be a captain?

If the search wasn't broke, we could revisit the coming civil war discussions. Now you're going to start a global one and it's no big deal?


On a lighter not but much more serious one, are you at least aware that you have made about 15 threads on the subject and you and I have had all these conversations several times?

If you're just putting in the work or recruiting or w/e then do you think and I respect the effort but you keep asking me the same questions for years now.

I do enjoy the talks but it seems like you are forgetting a lot of what has already been put in print.

I don't have any voice in who lives and who dies.

The version of the Earth determines who lives and who dies. The version we are creating is going to reduce the global carrying capacity for humans by billions.

We aren't built to live without water. We aren't built to live with plastic infiltrating our bodies. We aren't built to live without sufficient food. All of those things are determined by the version of the planet.

Nature is our master, not me. I propose that we live according to rules that respect that master. People will reject that advice at their own peril.

You propose absolutely nothing formula72. You have no philosophical anchor. You are just a normal random selfish person who wants to do as they please without regard to the consequences of your behavior on the collective wellbeing. You are emblematic of the cult of self.


It's not my fault that people can't handle the truth.

They can attack me all they want, but that doesn't change the truth.

Donald Trump is the avatar of a death cult. An example of the brutality of nature which arises when tribes prepare to fight to the death.

The people who support him want a cold-hearted bully to lead them and kill off other people who they rationalize as less worthy because they are lower in God's eyes because they are not white Christians. Just like Hitler.
