Seeing that he and his ilk like to copy Putler, I can see him doing 3 things to bolster numbers, each being somewhat disastrous (though the last one that comes to mind is a failed idea from Vietnam that seems to be used for ICE recruitment (Project 100,000.))

So are we just going to ignore this bug that's going around the US lately? I've known folks being taken down hard by it for weeks all over lately! It really doesn't feel like it's "just the flu."

Any medical folks can comment on observations?

Leaders from this era (1950s and 1960s) seem to have some of the best quotes to describe the modern day. Goldwater (despite his disgusting 1964 campaign) had some on the topic of christian leaders making religion a larger part of the GrOP's platform and a warning to them on it.

Missing the 3rd panel where they end up cheering for him anyways IMO...

I remember reading the BBC article interviewing undecideds.

These folks were freaking out, and were still not sure by how it read.

I know one girl who voted for Trump because of the groceries and would post stuff from Facebook pages that were aimed at young mothers.

I wouldn't be surprised if the pages themselves were just bots, or folks working in a office building in Kolkuta or Moscow being paid by someone to post that.

This. People seem to forget how strong the troll pages on FB set up shop. They'd call themselves things like "Smart Econ Mama" and stuff like that, but their content was almost exclusively political rants on the price of eggs and how Biden caused it and Trump would fix it.

It's that their eyes are green with greed so great they basically are creating a modern version of the wings of Icarus.

They see something that could massively boost stock prices by causing massive RIFs by cost (people) reduction. But it seems the AI is making many big mistakes in the work too.

It's happening at a lot of companies.

The stories I'm heading of AI's incompetence is insane. Like some if the stuff it recommends leaves people in danger of doing really dumb things it recommends.

I can't trust AI to tell me what is food. Why should I trust it to run a business or conduct war?

Gonna need a lot more than that. These clowns filled all sectors of the government, especially the Judicial to make sure we become a hypercapitalist theocracy.

Yeah, haven't visited a Target since they folded like cowards to "investors" like Robby Starbuck and his ilk.

This seems like some rando Megachurch who had no real activism said "boycott over" like Officer Barbary said "case closed" in South Park.

The Villages retirement community in Sumter Co, FL seemed to be a hotbed for folks getting arrested for election fraud in 2012, 16, and 20, using the tag line "because Dems do it" when they get caught.

2024 has been suspiciously quiet on this. Rigging by looking the other way wouldn't surprise me.

Only instances I know of outside this have been felons going theough the process of having liberties restored but being given conflicting info and arrested the moment they show up at the Polling Place.

*Looks at The Villages in Sumter County, FL. Where up to 5 people were found to have voted multiple names under other folks Identities.*

Sure, it's Donny, it's the Dems.

Feels most of the vote fraud happens in FL, and it's often folks in Ruby red areas voting for Ruby red candidates.

I definetly need to get back at reading the books themselves. Love how Tove basically had different versions between the formats (comics were basically Moomin as a young adult, the books have him growing up throughout, the animes have him between a older kid to a young adult (depends on voice)).

Defintly, love the care free positivity too seen in the 1990 Anime as well.

And ofc the short comics that Tove drew up for that British paper in the 50s as well, which is just fun chaos (and the Polish 1978 felt animation and 1990 anime mix parts with to add into their stories.)

I always called it the Baby Eater uniform. Idk how, but the kinds of folks who wore it gave me vibes that they'd be the ones to do that, that is see them babies delicacies.

Now it's heavily suggested in the files, I know 100% it's the uniform of a Baby Eater.

I heard something about it, like MJS originally pitched it to Paramount, but they trlurned it down and then WB picked it up and then both sorta showed up at the same time.

Never thought if him as the kinda if guy into fruit baskets let alone fancy stands for them.

Guess he's slowly turning into Goering.

It was a great show. If you also like DS9 also watch Babylon 5 too. It's from around the same time but was originally shot in wide-screen. It has a similar vibe (commander of a space station that has diplomatic purposes. War, etc.)

Yes, and plane he is holding is a 1:400 scale Finnair MD-11 in the Moomin paint scheme.

...Early 20s, and a lot I've seen is while their lazy 50 something makes an ass of themselves on TV, these kids, recruited to work in the administration are the ones dreaming up and implementing all this idiotic policy (which is also part of why the dipshits on TV are inconsistent.)

HOI4 is big example of such dipshits recruiting young men in the discord servers and game forum. Paradox (game devs) often often been accused of looking the other way when it happens in plan sight.

A lot of these now young 20 somethings that started playing as edgy 13 year old are now in their...

Hearts of Iron 4 Freaks IMO. That game faces a lot of criticism as it is for making Germany of that time look cool and has often been critiqued as "easy mode." A lot of WWII games aren't per-say doing it directly. The community has a lot of lieutenants of far right leadership attracting them.

Looks like this one specifically struck a chord with the party's troll farm in Kolkata seeing they listed insurance which basically is Healthcare in their response, lol.

Hell even the defense industry isn't doing great (though their C-Suite and shareholders are loving these numbers, partially padded by this war, and padded by the mass layoffs they have been doing for the last year.)

Only people benefiting are in baby eater uniforms (aka business suits.)

Everything I've seen is she got laterally demoted to a bullshit position. You see this a lot with the Corpatists and the parts of the C Suite they feel close to. Guy causes a division to loose hundreds of millions of dollars, but they're close, so they're put into a bullshit job that does nothing.

Unfortunately, many people that happily voted this on were also in their 20s to 40s. Granted with idiots like RFK and swindlers like Dr. Oz in charge of our health, and the rest of the admin acting like Khmer Rouge, but with money, that may bring the average life expectancy of the US down to that.

Finally someone calls them what they are!

The likes of Sarah Palin and rich business leaders like the Hobby Lobby and Uline guys have been talking about a biblical takeover of the US where the constitution is scrapped for years, in public, folks warning everyone about them were met with this: 😆

Especially with a lot of prominent facists absolutely despising Israel and seeing its destruction as their goal, and seeing Iran as their ally and seeing how many visited it for Holocaust Denial conferences (i.e. David Duke.)

So this is seen as a betrayal to them. (2)
