Master of Reality
You can just look at previous planetary crisises that were addressed, and just ask the question “what if we hadn’t done anything?” to use the example leaded gas and CFCs: planetary devastation within a human lifetime. With CO2 emissions and PFAs, we’re taking the FAFO route.
Wait till we get the 1-in-10,000 year storms!
Even the liberal’s worse conception of what a Ukrainian capitulion to Russia would look like seems like a better outcome than a Ukrainian “victory”
Oh hell yeah, this runs on real hardware
You gotta just apply Occam’s razor at some point. Does it make more sense that this is part of some well-thought-out plan, or is it just that the high level leadership of the USA are a bunch of shit for brains know-nothings?
It’s so fucking on the nose. I was so morbidly curious to watch Beast Games, and it honestly felt like setup to a horror movie where all the contestants were gonna get fed into a jigsaw murder machine at the end.
His argument against a policy successfully implemented in the largest city in the USA for decades: “what are we, a bunch of Asians?!?!”
No-one asked for it. There’s no constituency for kt. It’s pure ideology 
Yes, but he became a citizen in 2018
With the 20x increase in the ICE budget incoming, it seems clear that LA is going to be the testbed for an occupation and ethnic cleansing campaign.
We do party politics for school board elections.
in perpetuity and throughout the universe
Giving Super Mario World a break to instead play some Donkey Kong Country. I need to play the sequels sometime too.
WW3 has been ongoing for a few years now
This will be more fully covered in Dune Messiah. I’m guessing that Villeneuve knew that Dune 3 was going to get greenlit, and so he made the decision to make Paul likeable as a hero in this movie, while also very explicitly presenting all of the evidence that this is going to end up as a galactic calamity. That way he can rub the audience’s face in Space Hitler for the next movie.
The purpose of the RAF is to project power on the behalf of the American Empire (and let’s be real, if any thought is given to actual defense of Britain, it’s only if it would not too costly to implement as a dual-capability). The blowback potential alone is more of a real threat to the average Briton, and the military spending is an actual theft from them. If every RAF airplane was blown up tomorrow, the UK would probably become measurably safer and richer.
Seems like a good opportunity for China to test out some of their SAM systems against the F35
The cutting and privatization of government services has of a perverse logic, since the capital class only cares about whether they can extract profits from those privatized services.
But seeing the cuts to the state capacity of the Empire really demonstrates how they’ve lost the plot. These are all the coup-planners who keep the global south mired in IMF loans. That’s the framework that makes hyper exploitation and their super profits possible!
