When shit gets real they “didn’t vote for it.” I cannot think of a more irresponsible group of idiots than republicans.

If your “client” state provokes a war for you to get involved in, that makes you the client state.

Why are you linking to reddit?

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 27 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Fuck Reddit and fuck Spez.

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 5 points 15 hours ago

That thread was a mess but exactly what is expected from the sort of people enabled by spez.

They voted for the worst person you could possibly choose for president.

That's the part that still amazes me, a decade after he was first elected. If you asked someone 15 years ago "Who in popular culture should not be in charge of the most powerful country in the western world?" the answer would have had a high probability of being this piece of shit. What is inherently wrong with a culture that elects this fucking trainwreck TWICE?

54% of American adults can’t read at a grade 6 level.

Also a concerted cyberwar by Russia which has been going on for more than a decade.

And the election campaign funded by billionaires

[–] Hazor@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago

And the propaganda machine funded by the same billionaires.

America is filled with pieces of human shit. He is the perfect rep for these people.

This is something important that a lot of people don't understand. Trump genuinely represents roughly 50% of the US public; they all want to be him.

Honest stupidity bordering on developmental issues plus a complete lack of morals and fixed ideology which means anything goes as long as it seems popular (sheep stay with the herd).

Reminds me of Stellaris. Fucking vassal states. What genius left the 'can declare war' setting on ?

[–] Aganim@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Can Determined Exterminators become vassals? I thought they didn't do stuff like diplomacy with anything but their own kind?

Worse, some dumbass set the "Join their wars" to "All" instead of "None"

The obvious solution is to only vote for server side solutions voted on by users.
