The reporting about this guy being a bellwether is getting ridiculous.

Of course he was going to do well in a hard blue enclave while promising free stuff, but I hardly think this is indicative of a sea change.

Not only that, but government-run grocery stores? Y'all really want that? Because I sure as fuck don't, and I don't even live in New York.

Call me when this shit plays in a light blue or red-leaning city.
I haven’t seen even giga lefties pretend like he is a bellweather tbh. Unless you think the jacobin is a mainstream media source

My current rep is a Democrat, but he at least served in the Marines before entering politics and has some medals for valor with commendable citations. Imagine entering politics with nothing but a failed rap career and some bullshit photo-ops as your credentials.
Maine or mass if you don’t mind me asking

Most of them are cosmopolitans who don't work at all.
Most supporters of socialism and the welfare state are indolent people who don't understand how the world works because everything was taken care of for them. This should be painfully obvious just by looking at them.
And the weather. a lot of texas transplants can't take the heat and leave.
This is also the case for Florida. A whole lot of blue state transplants flee after their first hurricane.
....and is strangely obsessed with Captain Planet.
Captain Planet is so last year.

The new thing is FANTASTIC MAX!
This is rife with political metaphors.
 
The idea has been floated in a lot of cities after “food desserts” got much much larger after Covid and summer of love
And its retarded. All Groceries stores accept EBT for practically everything in the store. Which means in theory even grocery stores in the most ghetto ass neighborhoods can make money. Just from Government gibsmedats instead of cash in hand customers. The problem however is ghetto ass neighborhoods have an issue with thievery. The stores can't make money because the locals can't stop stealing. Which means the only stores that can stay open are small corner store convenience shops that charge way more for a bottle of Malt Liquor then in a whiteoid neighborhood 3 miles away.

The Commie Stores will have the exact same problem. All the city will end up doing is subsidizing the theft. These stores will never turn a profit and just become money sinks.
 
...do you actually think that there's no one on staff to inform the various world leaders anytime POTUS posts something specifically at them on twitter?

This is just sending a public letter, but really really fast.
Derect phone line is considered faster than barely active hugbox message at least it's used when dealing with most politically volatile regions on the planet.
 
Please stop with this cope.:lossmanjack:

A simple glance at his posting history proves that his "trolling" is a flimsy cover for his actual politics.

The DJT, TES, and Elon thread has substantial evidence that the dude is a Boomer Shitlib at best
You pay too much attention to other users.

Get a girlfriend and pay attention to her instead. It is what Hulk Hogan would want you to do.

They have a lot of businesses. B+H photo is the most well known one. Met a Hasid there with an extremely expensive custom built PC to run cyberpunk 2077 maxed out
B&H won't even let you place online orders during Shabbat. Fucking Nazis.

You guys need to post more so I don't double post. Come on! I am spinning gold here.
 
There is so much wrong with this post...
And that likely won't change either. It's not like the whites in America are willing to lose democracy and their voice in government.
The US literally had this from 1783 to about 1865. Its entirely possible to have democracy, and exclud non-whites, or any group for that matter. Just look at the democrats trying to exclude the majority of the population, and getting damn near close over the past decade.

Trump trying to go full Caesar would just fall flat on its ass because he doesn't have popular support. Most of the heavy-population areas hate him, the farmers hate him for ruining their lives, and even the army hates him, given that in his birthday parade, they openly phoned it in by smiling and marching out of step, even giving left-handed salutes like an open middle finger to him.
Do you even understand what you are saying? Christ, the bug hives don't like Trump? Who gives a shit. Most of them are too stupid to organize, and none outside of gangbangers has guns.

Also, Caesar had no problems packing Rome with immigrants from recently-conquered Gaul to support his bid for power, whereas Trump and Stephen Miller have only assured that their support base shrinks by the day.
White Americans have a higher birth rate then everyone but first generation immigrants (and illegals). Literally everyone that isn't a White conservative falls for the globohomo propaganda. What issues right-wingers have with Trump, doesn't matter (including my own issues with trump). He is simply superior to the alternative. He has my vote, and my support, and every other sensible right-winger as well. And even if his support base is shrinking, he's deporting illegals faster than its shrinking. So the loss is acceptable.

lefty jews voted for him dude. They're fundamentally unable to understand the realities of their actions
Naivety. They understand what they are voting for, and they support it. Leftists vote for the bullet because in their hearts, they understand they deserve it. They only get upset when its a "fascist" bullet.
 
Derect phone line is considered faster than barely active hugbox message at least it's used when dealing with most politically volatile regions on the planet.
Not when you're telegraphing your position and the whole point of the message is to telegraph your position to affect events happening in said politically volatile region.

But that's beside the point. Completely ignore whether or not what Trump did was good, bad, effective, ineffective, etc. You derided the idea that Netanyahu wouldn't be actively following Trump's messages, but that's abjectly retarded. POTUS is the biggest bully on the block and if he's talking to you specifically with a couple of cans and a string you listen.
 
You can see right through Mamdani, to the foreign striver willing to say anything to appeal to an “emerging market demographic”. He disgusts me, on a visceral level, especially after seeing this pandering pic he took of him eating his foreign grayslop on the subway, he's just like "you" i.e. every barely sapient foreigner living in NYC who wipes their asses with their hands and messily eats slop wrapped in coarse flatbreads on the subways. Though from the looks of the situation, a lot of his support comes from retarded white leftists, some of whom I saw online acting surprised that some mystery meat white-presenting homo who had a "career" making backpacker rap with help from his mommy isn't really ingratiating himself with the African-American community.

I think that's just a Jeet thing in general. When they want to get somewhere they're always the biggest, most sycophantic suckups in the room: the ones most eager to shamelessly abase themselves before & lick the assholes of the people whose good grace they need in that moment, to tell said people what (they think) they want to hear and do what (they think) they want to do at all costs - at least, until they actually get the power & influence they crave. Then (or hell, even before then, if they just think they can speak freely without getting overheard by the boss) they'll cheerfully backstab, or at best completely disregard, the people dumb enough to give them said power & influence. While they're at it they will also almost certainly treat those beneath them/who they don't need with absolute contempt, the sort of abusive assholery you would ordinarily find ascribed to & exaggerated for the feudal aristocracy in Soviet agitprop and such.

I've seen it where I work, I've seen it with Vivek (always kill that nigger for Wraithguard BTW) and now I'm seeing it with this asshole. I think Mamdani will make everyone braindead enough to vote for him regret it in under a year, unless of course they're rich enough to fuck off elsewhere to escape the consequences of their decision (in which case they'll parasitize off a better state and infect it with the same moronic ideas & votes instead).
 
Colonized is exactly the correct word for what is going on in Africa
You’re not wrong and I agree that yes, China/UAE/Russia/etc are colonizing Africa. However, I’m in favor of the term being used to describe the world order leading up to the 50s, because it carves out terminology for how the modern world was made. It’s a neat way to wrap up the 17th through early 20th centuries, and the way it operated was different to the modern corporate-interest method. Decolonization happened and it, imo, was mostly Cold War side-choosing. This is a return to form. Maybe we should call it recolonization, but that takes decolonization too seriously considering that what that looked like was mostly just Cold War regime changes.

All of this is pedantic and maybe a little stupid but I think colonialism is too evocative of a historical period to keep using it. It’s also its own word, if that makes sense- it’s not descriptive as much as it is conceptual, and people define it how they want. Maybe I’ve just read too many smug communist tweets, but I think if you want to communicate to people what is happening in Africa, it works better to put it in novel terms. Also, it has become possible to reap the benefits of a colony without actually having to have one. You don’t need the kinds of numbers the British used to pull up with- you can do it all on Whatsapp.

It is very funny how identical it all is though. Grim but funny. Empire of Dust could have been made about the British wandering through old Arab trading ports and it will be made when the Indians (god help us) have to patch the roads the Chinese paved.
 
This guy literally just does not give a fuck.

In a conventional sense this statement should enrage everyone. Republicans who don't want war, leftists who don't want it for different reasons, traditional democrats who care about nice sounding words, stock holders who don't like uncertainty.

The guy has said and done so many things like this and crossed so many little "implied" lines, things that aren't exactly against the rules but are de-facto seen as such due to what a bunch of social analysts have calculated from polls and their totally not worthless degrees.

That statement yesterday about how Israel and Iran don't know wtf they're doing, talking about Canada being a state, accepting the plane from Qatar, working in the McDonalds drive through, standing up and screaming "fight" after being shot. And that's just the recent stuff, he's been acting this way since 2014 and he keeps fucking winning, not just elections but pragmatic concrete victories as well.

It's no surprise he pisses off conventional politicians so much. They've walked on eggshells and learned all the social rules like a preppy high school girl and then saw some guy from out of town come in and just sweep using a strategy they had all deemed off limits. No other politician on earth would dare do this shit.

I don't know what he teaches us about where the country was/is but it's something huge.

I think it might be a craving for honesty, that point has been made before but not really delved into. All these rules of dos and donts made sense in 1960, but now that everyone understands exactly what they're done for it all seems pointless. Like a job that started with a safety procedure because it was new and most employees didn't know how dangerous it was, but once everyone has worked there for 20 years they get it and don't need to tiptoe around it anymore.

It's like the American public was thinking "holy shit, we don't need to hear about how islamaphobia is wrong and some of them are good and we need to separate the regime from the people and America isn't perfect and our allies gave us some help and it was a difficult decision... we get it... we don't need to hear all these specific PC words and conditionals just tell us if the motherfuckers got bombed or not since we all know that's what this is actually about".

And Trump obliged.

It's like the difference between a sports commentator who just states the score and which players are fucking up vs which are carrying, and one who tries to fill in a bunch of word salad to make it seem like the game is this complex strategic thing with all these variables that totally matter and can't just be reduced to "taller man put ball in hoop better". Everyone knows what you actually mean.

Another good example is office meetings, anybody who has had to sit through one of those empathizes with this. Just say the 5 sentences that are actually required for this shit so we can get to work.

Dems seem to be trying to replicate this with AOC and that black cunt who pretends to be hood, but you can still tell they're trying to come across that way without actually being that way. You can't fake bluntness.
