Considering everything he’s done in less than 4 months, I’d expect him to finish up within the next few weeks. April 20th sounds good to me.

First, nice day one comment. Welcome to Lemmy.
Second, by not distinguishing between Nazis and Nazi supporters (ie victims of propaganda) you would have had to cull over half of the German population in 1944.
Third, never give an actual Nazi the near painless exit from Earth by just shooting them. They at least deserve a ceremonial public guillotine party.
Let me get downvoted for this.
Time heals.
Time can heal all wounds.
Forgiveness is one of the most powerful acts we can perform human to human.
Yes, it shows all the hate in all around us, however. Don’t underestimate the mountains of psychological research and manipulation that went into all these million dollar propaganda enterprises like Fox News, Cambridge Analytica, the Murdochs, etc.
They are victims of mass manipulation. It is far better to look at them as if they are severe drug addicts than to write them off completely.
Hope this helps someone. It helped me.
Dude seriously. For the last few weeks, every time I see your username pop up I am baffled – baffled I say, you’re not an @lemmy.ml troll. I’d be happy to be character reference if they need one for you to join.
I think it’s one of those things that when you see it you can’t unsee it.
It’s heavily tied to whether you are looking at actual climate and resource data or just following the day to day shenanigans.
I’ve tried to offer a bit more context in a different response a bit lower, but I’d say the best thing to do is go get engaged in conversation with people who are seeing it.
As far as I can tell there is a part of the population that simply doesn’t want to see this either. On Lemmy it seems to be around 20% but I think the overall population is probably closer if not over 60%. It’s a really full on realisation and reality shifting experience for people who have done everything by the book, went to university, bought the house, did the making kids thing, paying mortgages, watch the tv shows and talk about the tv shows to people at “parties”.
It’s hard to have that whole American Dream paradigm fall apart.
ETA: to illustrate this point, there are people going to downvote this comment, and a bunch of my previous ones, just because they don’t want others to also experience reading this. Fck man, I was hoping this wouldn’t become reddit so fast.
I think a majority of people would describe it as a conspiracy due to the MSM and BSM propaganda and algorithmic manipulation, but the data is out there. As some here have said, it is less than 10 years, but I rounded it up for comfort (:
tldr; as captains of the Titanic they have known we hit an iceberg and we are going to sink. Their delusion is not that we wont sink, but that we can get off this planet fast enough with rockets and colonise Mars in time. So their actions are both playing the “everything is still possible” narrative in Hollywood and media outlets they own, while also amping up war rhetoric to distract us from the famines that are about to start in the next 5 years.

Ok, I’ll try. I overestimated that this would be clear to most on Lemmy, but happy to share my thoughts behind creating this meme.
First off, it is happening. The first domino’s are falling, and there is nothing we can do to avert the death of billions in the next 2-3 decades. If you find that shocking, remember that if you’re halfway your life expectancy right now, you nearly witnessed the world population double in that half life time.
When I say the next line, don’t see at as a synonym to advocate for war. The only thing we can ‘do’ is start wars, and win them. Putin is already there, Netanyahu followed soon there after. Not to mention Sudan and Congo, though we prefer our wars to be about white people to keep the media clicks up.
The rich and powerful have studied French revolutionary history and are very aware that these times are testing times for them too. They have a number of attack vectors to keep us in check. Their core mantra is essentially being the captain on the Titanic telling everyone they will be fine. They got the media bought up literally, so they can easily make us hate Russians or Trump or the Non-White-Skin-Colour-Of-They-Are-Eating-The-Cats™.
DJT was mostly installed because he just follows orders and didn’t want to go to jail, so he’s easily compromised, but they wanted him because he can provide smoke and mirrors the abolishment of the US constitution the easiest and fastest without too much questioning because of his cult of personality. Also he’s delightfully divisive. Then they will create more wars. Wars unite the peasants and wars help reduce population sizes. But most importantly wars distract. From what?
Well, from their wealth inequality for one, but the Climate Armageddon that is about to hit us. This will happen a lot faster than predicted and a lot more severe too. Remember they control the media. They know how bad it will get and they have diluted climate change studies for decades. All the projections have been soft from day one. Even now, you can’t watch a mainstream climate change piece without it always ending with this tacky music and hopium voiceover in the end “the future is uncertain, but if we keep at it we might just have a brighter future for our children” (mentioning the children really works)
That’s why they were building bunkers in the late 90s and are all building penis rockets and thinking even dead cold Mars is a better option. This is not about becoming a multi planetary civilisation, this is about there are not enough lifeboats for all of us.
The climate feedback loops have only been triggered in the last three years. They were almost completely omitted in the initial official climate reports for decades but I’m sure there was a higher priced climate report that did include what the effects of the climate feedback loops would be.
They also understand, as some commenters pointed out, that their lifestyle can only continue as long as we believe there’s a future and hope to one day achieve the same life standards as our parents.
There are other important factors that make them believe this is the final run such as the dwindling global oil reserves, the impact the climate apocalypse will have on the global food security etc
I’m not sure if that answers your why they would expect its collapse.
If it doesn’t, then it also won’t really explain their actions.
So, they expect collapse because they have had much more precise climate and civilisation collapse models privately funded for the better part of this century, the first ones were still public and publicly funded from the 80’s, nearly all of them were pointing to 2030 to 2040 as a critical point of inflection. I.e. they have known for at least 2 decades with a fairly high degree of certainty we have hit an iceberg. They also know there are not enough life rafts. And they know that if the current race wars are replaced by class wars, they are really not going to enjoy the rest of their lives.
It explains why they gave the POTUS king power last year, how they rigged it so their puppet would win, and how they are preparing everything for the establishment of the 4th Reich. War will distract us, war will cull our numbers and war will stimulate the endless growth economy, which will keep shrinking alarmingly once the famines start, because — unsurprisingly — endless economic growth never had much to do with innovation, intelligence, efficiency or clever marketing, but just a reflection on the batshit crazy population growth we’ve had since the end of WWII.
Famine is the biggest enemy of economic growth, war is its biggest accelerator.
Hope this explains it a bit better.
”An economy based on endless growth is” All I could hear was that Muse song when I read this.
Are you actually asking or being rhetorical?
Yes, but up and till that point, they would want to make sure we point guns at each other instead of rolling out the guillotines for them.
No just trying to get to war faster. Us fighting each other is their greatest security.
I think they are the ones in charge of making sure the divide and conquer game is played through till the end. Ensure we keep downvoting each other at first, and later killing each other is their highest and most cost effective way of managing an 8 billion large size of violent cattle.
(This comment only works if y’all massively downvote this, so go for it)
In that case the USA is well and truly fucked.
If you’re right, and it sounds like you are, all bernie & aoc can do is primary, until the cabal pulls a 2016, and the vicious loop repeats.
My new advice is violence. Pls defuse your nukes first.
I’ve said it yesterday, and I’ll say it again:
This is nice and all, but talk is (now very) cheap. I’ll believe the USA stands the slightest chance of surviving this coup if it is met with actions.
And there’s only one action you can take: Form a new party!!! Don’t call it Labor or Labour. Don’t call it Green. Don’t call it progressive. Don’t call it socialist or liberal. Just give it a name that people understand and don’t have preexisting bias against. The “Party For The People”, “Ninety-Nine Percent”, or whatever.
Take on BOTH the democrats and GOP, and constantly and endlessly keep dominating the conversation that they are bought by special interest and you are representing the people.
Become popular overnight. Keep hammering home it is not about skin colour, race or country of origin, but about the billionaires that aren’t happy with paying no tax and having billions. Make it about the 99%.
And it won’t be easy, you need 2 Justices on the Supreme Court to Magically drop dead in your first term, and you need have supermajority in both houses for at least 4 years so you can overturn Roe v Wade and most importantly Citizens United. Don’t just overturn but make amendments to the constitution so this can never be up to 7 muppets with life long appointments.
It is the only way you’ll get your country back without excessive violence. The two status quo parties are hollowed out from the inside. And both are infiltrated by foreign interests.
I think the puppet will get rid of the constitution, and then get sick enough or “retire” and appoint the shadow prez as the first King Of America. It’s not as far fetched as it was before November last year.
Trump never wanted to be Prez again. He hates it. He just wanted to stay out of jail, and this was the only way. Now he has 3.5 years to convince his base that the kingmaker is their King, and then his job is done and he can go golf and retire.
That dude with his long red thin napkin has the codes now last I heard.
Thinking like this is why you are where you are with all those nukes. Form a party. Let more parties form. Ditch MSM and CSM (Centralised Social Media) and let the people decide.
If you want to have a country without kings, you need to be prepared to have absolutely no daddy on any front, including parties and media.
Violent revolt and sign an improved constitution
I’ve added it to [email protected] and [email protected]
RIP USA.
