I think there's plenty to worry about. Trump is clearly going to win and the Supreme Court just cleared him for breaking the law as part of his duties. Project 2025 just stated that we're in the middle of the second American Revolution and that they promise not to kill the left if the left promises to stop resisting. We're about to see a lot of repression to prevent the 2028 general strike and the primrose path for that is going to be retooling American industry for munitions production so they can carpet bomb more. The USA is a fortress with massive resources that, if turned to making bombs, is going to just be a spawn point for bombers to kill millions.

Yes, this can be countered, but it's going to be bloody. The USA military could revolt, but there's not enough communist infrastructure for it to actually address the issue. So that means destroying carrier groups with hypersonics and destroying air bases in Europe and West Asia. It's looking like there's a shit ton to worry about.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
