Dissing Trump on 4Chan? Is that even allowed?

I hate it it but i feel a little sorry when laughably evil people fuck up their evil schemes this badly. and it happens a lot.

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 63 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (7 children)

Fuck up their schemes? Putin's scheme to wreck US hegemony is going insanely well and would've been going even better if he hadn't greedily, groundlessly invaded Ukraine. Trump's plan to abuse the presidency for personal gain seems to be doing well too.

[–] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago

The us hegemony getting wrecked is a good thing tho

[–] plyth@feddit.org 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Why do US billionaires accept the end of the hegemony? Trump can't act against their plans or he would be impeached.

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Like a tick that has grown fat off of its host body, they believe they don't need countries anymore.

[–] plyth@feddit.org 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A nice thought but they won't be that stupid.

It's enough that 10 billionaires understand the development to convince the rest.

They think about power all day long. They will notice if they lose it.

[–] CheesyFox 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

they surely will. That doesn't mean they're sharp enough to properly strategize. IMO when you have lots of money, you don't really have to think as much, because it's kust that more easier to breed money when you already have so much. So when the crisis finally comes, you won't be able to properly analyze the situation.

Case in point — corpos like Microsoft and Ubisoft.

[–] plyth@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

because it’s kust that more easier to breed money when you already have so much.

Warren Buffett says no. To invest billions is more difficult because high growths opportunities with high margins rarely exist in that price range.

Are they stupid or do they optimize for different constraints? MS could have introduced AI for surveillance and not for growth.

So when the crisis finally comes, you won’t be able to properly analyze the situation.

I can't disprove this. However I think that some are intelligent enough and with billions at their disposal they could make themselves heard.

Yes, you won't be able to multiply your money. But once you have millions or billions to spare, it's pretty easy to invest them in such a way that the returns will cover more than you spend on a daily basis at least. This easily develops a certain sense of carelessness.

Are they stupid or do they optimize for different constraints? MS could have introduced AI for surveillance and not for growth.

Ubisoft stock prices plummeted down and nearing the historical minimum.

Microsoft's trust in ai is akin walking a bridge across a chasm, while building the said bridge on the go. Considering that linux share actively grows in later years, they're doing a bad job with that bridge. EUs latest concerns about US and reliance on the US technologies don't help either.

The quality of their product also depleeted, thanks to the reliance on aformentioned ai hype train, and usage of inapropriate technologies to build their OS companents (i.e. using react native for the start menu). All of that tops of with dubious investments, be it OpenAI, or bying Activision a few years prior. Not even mentioning the smaller game studios like Tango Gameworks that they bought only to close off immediately. Everything listed can be summarized as poor management decisions.

You might argue that they're rich enough to spare a billion or two on such mistakes, but those mistaces appear to be systematic, rather than one-offs. To me it seems like a start of a slow and very painful fall.

but those mistaces appear to be systematic,

Which other systemic goals could they have?

Last I checked hes still robbing the Treasury blind and pardoning his friends, which is all he ever cared about

Ever day I hope this stupid shitty motherfucker kills himself

[–] Huschke@lemmy.world 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Unfortunately he's only the symptom, not the disease.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

People keep saying this, but we go to pretty extreme lengths to remove severe symptoms.

[–] mattyroses@lemmy.today 5 points 3 days ago

They say that so we remember to treat the disease, and not just get another one

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 days ago

Username checks out.

Unfortunately you'll have to make do with this stupid motherfucker shitting himself.

you'll have to make do with this stupid killy motherfucker shitting himself.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

You can die talking a shit and Trump's health is exactly the type to do that.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Personal holiday when he does

He's way to narcissistic but one can dream

[–] vivalapivo@lemmy.today 4 points 4 days ago

There are two possible readings of your message.

The first one is that he literally commits suicide.

The second one is that the general public is told that he committed suicide, but everyone knows that it's not true

[–] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 61 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Makes more sense when you consider him a Russian asset; weakening NATO and the US position as a super power.

[–] PuddleOfKittens@sh.itjust.works 26 points 4 days ago (2 children)

If he were a Russian asset, he could end the war by lifting Russia's sanctions or refusing to impose or enforce "new" sanctions (new rules that close loopholes in the existing sanctions).

Trump isn't a Russian asset, he's just a shit president.

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 25 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Could be a lot of things. He's still oddly subservient to Putin, and mostly serving Putin's aims. Could be that Trump's position and power doesn't extend fast enough to end Ukraine. (Maybe because the Republican Senate won't allow it?)

[–] mattyroses@lemmy.today 1 points 3 days ago

or because your conspiracy theory is just wrong, and a distraction

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago

Guess he can't give away his game like that.
