Obviously, this country is totally fucked and the bozos in it are impossible to predict and decipher but I think, maybe the chuds are biting off more than they can chew?

Apolitical/normie YouTuber Penguinz0 has made at least two anti-israel videos and this week covered the second ICE observer shooting and was heated about it too (he is a 2A guy).

Americans move sowing fascism but the brutality it requires is too much to handle (which is why it's been exported overseas for several decades). The underclass at home is supposed to be largely non-white and generally compliant, but as we know, heightening contradictions make that unsustainable. The choice is barbarism or socialism, but the average American doesn't actually enjoy the taste of raw barbarism.

Regardless of the game they talk, 80 percent of the population is just liberals that want someone else to eat shit quietly so they can skim off the superprofits.

I think the political calculus by the bouge is that economic collapse is coming very soon and this stuff will become a lot more palatable once that happens.

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 18 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

That's probably their calculus but I think they're wrong about that too. They can't pull it off with no carrot and they are so greedy and lacking in foresight that they just eat all the carrots they get themselves instead of offering one to the working class

it's a game of chicken and they want the other bourge faction to make concessions first

I think he's becoming much less apolitical lately, seems like he's on track to be anti-asmongold for the gamers

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 11 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Possibly, but I think hes always going to be a few steps behind, although that gap might close up a little bit. He only commenting on the most egregious offenses that leave prey much no opportunity to deny or deflect.

I don't think he needs to be very political, I think its useful as a barometer for "coworker brain" so I can have an idea is where they are at on a given week.

I'm glad that all my co-workers are lefty. Only like 2 that are strictly in the grillman zone.

Do agree that he's always gonna play the "I didn't want to have to do this" role, but his much more frequent political posting is making it clear that his mentality is becoming harder to maintain.
