As a player of quake, nothing here looks at all familiar. No exaggeration. Looks far closer to half life than quake imo.. does look kinda cool though.
Lol good luck with that shit
The worst of the worst
So it's somehow bad now to want bad things to happen to bad people? Color me a MAGAt then.
TIL rm -v is a thing
Likely. Or they may fine him a couple billion and he'll delight in that as just being the (cheap) cost of business.
You're right, but if there's one thing dictators cannot tolerate on any level, it's unchecked criticism. Sure, these days there is still some level of allowing free speech for appearances, but if it's high profile and trump thinks he can exercise his control, he damn sure will.
The Jimmy Kimmel incident is the perfect example of this and what we can expect moving forward. The executives of companies have been installed specifically because they're right wingers and even those who aren't, are terrified of lawsuits. They probably know they can win the lawsuits, but it's just easier to kowtow, from their perspective.
It's surreal. I know I've been living a lie my whole life. I thought laws and the constitution would usually win out, at least when enough people knew about whatever criminal activities were happening. But I don't really expect any of that anymore. I was randomly reading up on Nazi Germany last night and I cannot help but wonder if we are in the "deport the impure Jews" phase of this. I've already internalized the idea that if they could get away with sending the "undesirables" to gas chambers, they would. But I still hold onto some hope I'm wrong. The news basically every day now though makes me think I'm not. That at best, it will get worse and not better.
What I cannot understand is what the point of anything trump does is. I bounce from one idea to another but none of it really makes full sense to me.
I know for sure he's looking to leave a legacy, that's obvious. But is he actually so goddamned hateful that his focus is determined by maximizing suffering? Is it because he thinks his supporters love this? (He's sadly correct if so)
Is he hoping to be infamous like Hitler and Stalin?
Is there a chance he's got some twisted sense of this being the right thing for America? Trust me, I don't put a lot of stock in this one because it's abundantly clear his number one priority is always himself. Maybe it's a secondary reason?
Ultimately I know that, like the original Nazis, you just cannot really understand the inner minds of evil people. But I cannot help but try. Not to empathize with them at all. It's morbid curiosity. How does one's sense of morality get so thoroughly fucked? There were hundreds of thousands of Germans who helped murder and imprison Jews. Each one of those people justified it to themselves. And a good chunk of them rationalized it so hard that a switch was flipped in their brain. "This is so important, mass murder is required and I will help commit it." was a thought process for many thousands of Germans. It's so hard to wrap one's head around. It's disgusting and demoralizing. But it's reality. Some people say humans are just evil inherently, and I see a lot supporting that argument. But they're also inherently good... sometimes.
Nazi Germany and the fact that Trump's approval rating right now is above 3% is evidence that this is a distinctly human phenomenon. We are capable of straight up evil. How the fuck can we fix it?
Sorry for the drawn out stream of consciousness reply... I needed to get that off my chest.
Belongs in aneurysm posting.
Do you mean gold?
People always go on about how the armed forces hate Trump.
They do?
My impression has always been that some of the military hates him, but it's a very small handful.

Literally no indication of that
