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.

What does that even mean though? I read huge books during grade 6.

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

And the election campaign funded by billionaires

And the propaganda machine funded by the same billionaires.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

And they had the richest tech billionaire, and our most hostile enemy, partner up with the most prolific traitor in American history to rig the election.

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).

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.

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

[–] Airowird@lemm.ee 16 points 1 week ago

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

[–] Aganim@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

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

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 31 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fuck Reddit and fuck Spez.

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

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

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

[–] Anon518@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why are you linking to reddit?

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

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

[–] jabeez@lemmy.today 5 points 1 week ago

No no no, they're the party of "personal responsibility", remember? And "family values", right? They have no core values, they're a cult and will believe whatever their propaganda networks tell them to.
