Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.
Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.
If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.

Its hard to call it a prediction when he literally just said it himself
Oh god NYT slop
Prosecute his enemies is maybe a bit much. But the rest is uncanny.
you're joking right?
Just wait a few weeks. It'll happen.
I wait for putin, trump and all geriatric rulers to die already
Is Vance any better?
For couch makers and furniture retailers, yes!
He at least doesn't have a cult following
King Trump II
But he's vile, and not a blabbering moron
Lowkey disagree on the last part, he just seems smart in comparison to the guy he's been next to
I mean theoretically, Vance doesn't need a cult, just more electoral college votes than Dems. Which, dems have done an amazing job for the last decade destroying any chance of that.
When the trash humans are saying they will do this and that. When they publish it. Its not a prediction.
His "Mein Kampf"
It said he'd shit his pants on live TV in the oval office?
Pg 32, ¶2, §3 "Fard n shid pant XDD"
Predicted...openly by Trump.
The people who needed to be convinced think the New York Times is globalist propaganda. If they even noticed the existence of this article they would assume it was a made up smear campaign against Dear Leader.
Also, our media (even the "liberal media") is part of the problem. For example, they did such a terrible job explaining Trump's attempts to steal the 2020 election that to this day even many anti-Trump Americans don't understand how fucked up it was.
The primary blame is on the sociopaths in charge and the troglodytes who voted them in, but there is plenty of guilt to go around.
My folks didn’t even know the fake elector story until Liz Cheney’s book came out. That was Dec 2023
60 Minutes didn’t cover fake electors until Feb 2024.
Like it or not, this is likely on par with the experience of tens of millions of American voters.
Totally agreed, media failed to present the full scope of the conspiracy and did it way too fucking late.
The media didn't fail at all, it worked exactly as intended.
if the average voting american knew how to read they would be very upset!
How was anyone supposed to know he was gonna do the things he said he wanted to do.
Don't leave out the part where all public school male students would be required to take military aptitude screening...one step shy on universal conscription
It was fucking laid out in P2025 and from the mouths of the billionaires
Arrest him. The fuck
A republic, if you can keep it
So…. I am going to express my opinion that Trumpism is merely the latest, not so different, expression of American capitalism that has always been this nasty and poisonous. And this includes the raids and round ups currently in the news.
There are some things that changed: the targets and oppressed have changed for some. The messaging has changed.
It’s a fad. This will fade soon enough, and things will still be bad. The good guys will be elected and clean up some of the stuff, but most of what they do will be ineffective. And then the next bad guy will come to power
Who are the "good guys"? The only remotely non-evil person who had a serious bid for president is Sanders, the rest are straight up pieces of shit who bankroll genocides, bomb civilians, and empower their billionaire donors. Even then, Sanders is ineffective, somewhat zionist, and old, and I don't see a viable young replacement even for someone like him.
In the US, the political mainstream isn't "good guys vs bad guys", it's 80% hitler vs 100% hitler.
And even Sanders parroted the "they have a right to defend themselves" rhetoric when push came to shove
At least he called himself a thing that we could all then google and find something better to work towards
I feel like there are not any good and effective leaders or movements. At least not nationally
