erwgv3g34 thers nothing I think I could say to you that wouldn't violate TOS other than "May your blade chip and shatter"
I mean my nuclear hellfile in this case is a metaphor for an artificial pathogen engineered to inflict maximum casualties on red tribers, but I get your meaning, retreat is probably a better option than mutual annihilation. I would need a way to make sure the red tribe wouldn't be able to complete an AGI for that to be reasonable, but on the whole, I would agree.

As an aside, just because I often muse about this whenever he's brought up, is there a consensus estimate on how fucking old Jim is at this point? The absolute low ball has to be 60 but he could be like 80 and still doing this.

If anyone can be called a fascist without hyperbole, it's Jim, and he operates on this level with this exact mindset. He does not see right and wrong, only will to power. I find it satisfying that his ideological forbearers were defeated in the way that they were.

I am on record that large-scale, open-ended political violence is a preferable outcome to the political outcomes Blue Tribe appears to me to be aiming for, and further that I believe Red Tribe can and will decisively win such a fight.
I am curious, I disagree and think civil war is very unlikely, but I think that if this does happen and if defeat were imminent, unleashing a nuclear holocaust on the US and cleansing it would be preferable to the red tribe being allowed to conquer and rule over the ruin of my Northeast. Does that make me an extremist as well? If so, which kind?

"Evil" and "bad" are meaningless unless one shares values-coherence with the people with one communicates
One of the most poetic things to ever happen is that the great fascist powers were met in their own framework by their enemies and crushed through strength of arms, thus in addition to destroying there power and killing many of them, also defeating them ideologically in the only way that really mattered as far as they were concerned.

The most notable thing about him when the shock value wears off is the depth and breadth of his hatred. The man has been railing nonstop about how women should be reduced to sexual chattel and raped by their husbands, along with how all non-white people in the west should be slaughtered for the better part of 30 years now. He was, when I was much younger, a pretty key part in me deciding who my ideological enemies would be though so I guess there is that.

Anyone voting for Trump or his allies now on the belief that electoral success would result in permanent victory is a fool
Has the US ever struck you as a place with a fool deficit?

This is a cope the same way that Reddit communists insist China is actually communist is a cope. It's something that needs to be true because the alternative is total defeat. I am willing to wager 500 dollars that within 2 years of Trumps death, the MAGA coalition has disintegrated or is significantly weaker. The exact terms are negotiable.

Trump has also dismantled the Democrats’ base
This doesn't matter if his death just totally disengages and fractures the entire MAGA coalition. If this occurs the Dems basically win by default.

I mean, the next time they get power when the MAGA cult dies upon its leader's death, I expect them to just legalize them unilaterally. Also college debt should just be deleted and the papper work lost and deleted. If the next Democratic president listens to the Supreme Court a single time, I will consider them a failure.

They didn't kill him with a heart attack post-2020 election for reasons I legitimately do not understand. I am not saying they should or shouldn't have done this, I am just confused why they didn't.

Whether Kanye is a truly great artist
He is nothing if not this. Its the one thing you can't take away from him. If he's is great NOW is a debate but overall I can't see how you would argue to the contrary.

Expound if you will, People always vote against the party that is in power when a big crash happens and that is in circumstances where it isn't immediately obvious who and what caused the crash.
The tariffs discussion has made me realize that some people who praport themselves as intellectual, above the average redditor, are just as childish in there understanding of how the world works just in different ways, often interpreting reality through overly idealized or abstract neoreactionary frameworks instead of lib marvel ones.

Happily, MAGA does not have to choose between just the two options you listed. There is a middle path where the globalist agenda is crushed via onshoring manufacturing which yes, will increase costs for the coastal elite who own big corporations, but will also raise wages for the working and middle class.
Or alternatively, the economy crashes as it will if the current trajority continues and the MAGA coalition gets kicked in the balls and tossed out of office in 2026 and 2028 after which all tarrif powers are taken away from the president and things are put into place to stop them from ever having this much power again.

What about the onshoring that is absolutly not going to happen because building new factories requires more time than these tariffs could ever be expected to last? (IE 4 years tops and more likely two years if the Republicans do badily enough in the midterms)
That's the beauty of it: they already tried and that's how he got elected.
No, I mean by someone who is actually capable of killing him. Think more the pratorians finally being done with a particularly insane emperor than a random assassin. This is something that is only going to be able to happen once as I imagine the second Trump is dead/out of office, Congress is taking away the president's tariff powers forever.

Whether he has the balls to crash the American economy for years to make this transition happen
Isn't it more likely that even if he did have the balls to do this, he is simply liquidated sometime between then and now? I can't imagine all the powers that be and all the money involved just sitting back and letting him burn it all down just for the benefit of his own need to watch things burn.

ever in a million years did the people expect that this would fail to move the needle on any of the reasons they voted for it (immigration, economics) or the complete lack of a plan for delivering it,
To be clear you are referring to the people who voted yes to Brexit right? Because anyone else could and did very easily predict all of those things.

It's never been remotely permissible as a theory of harm that "now I receive less resources for the same amount of X".
Especially not in America where such people are typically deposited in the great unmarked grave of obsolescence historically.
How do you convince people that life was better when they were really "people" in the same way men are without a jackboot? This went away for a reason in the west, all the religious and mythological reasons were shown to be "fake" (as far as society is concerned, I dont want to engage in a theological debate) how do you put the gene back in the bottle?
