The ballroom is the scariest thing because it shows clear intent to never leave. He is treating the white house like his personal palace.

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

Still waiting for a coronation.
Dem commercial for 2028
βYou want healthcare, Affordable housing, insurance, education, and climate action?
Go fuck yourself!
Here at the DNC we believe in two things Israel and getting back to normal. No more will scary orange man bad, now democrats good!
We will change names of buildings, we will make sure pronouns are said on twitter, we will raise taxes on the middle class.
bLuE WaVe 2028!β
And fixing this will take decades and fortunes.
weak
βAfter Donald Trump we will return to the conditions that created Donald Trumpβ
This right here. That's the perfect rebuttal to neoliberal gaslighting.
Canada will no longer trusts the USA. Europe will no longer trusts the USA. Asia will no longer trust the USA.
This... There is no "coming back" with a regime change. Generational damage has been done, and won't be reverted. The apple is rotten to the core.
Trump is the output of a govnerment system run by outside influence. Trump needs to go but the cancer will come back. Nations will find ways to work without the Americans. So many people are ready to take a quality of life hit to protect their sovereignty, something Americans arenβt willing to do at the moment
LMAO yeah, the department of defence has long been the department of war. They just finally gave it its true name.
"The department of dropping freedom on civilians"
it used to be the department of war, before we got savvy to propaganda
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United/_States/_Department/_of/_War
It has always been appropriately named.
It's just that most people assumed it meant "defending the country" instead of "defending rich pedophiles"
Lol, so Donaldo is the cause, not a symptom/result of a 100 year trend. With him, everything bad magically disappears. Lmao.
This is how my dad sees the world. "Once he's dead, everything'll go back to normal." Sure Dad. Once the flames die out, we can move back in to the "house."
the institutions we worked so hard to build for decades haven't been utterly demolished and can just reappear with the stroke of a pen. the institutions we worked so hard to build for decades haven't been utterly demolished and can just reappear with the stroke of a pen.
Like Ceaser
Yeah, exactly, in a society valuing & rewarding (even romanticising) gruesome murders & war acts ofc that's the kind of ppl that get promoted.
Oh yeah, weβll all just forget all the stuff the yanks just allowed to happen and will again when the coin flip goes the other way.
So Democrats will do the bare minimum or low hanging fruit decisions without making actual decisions that will potentially stop the next Republican administration from going even more authoritarian?
Same procedure as every year, James.
A bunch of delusions. Itβs going to be incredibly hard to undo what he did, and it will take decades. Decades that could be spent on progress as opposed to rebuilding the basics.
You know, I hope that's true. And I do think rebuilding is possible. But we need stronger protections to have any hope of actually successfully rebuilding. The far right has seen how effective the Project 2025 playbook has been. We can't guarantee they won't win another election. If we don't build protections, whatever we build they'll knock down again and go further next time. We also need protections from the wealthy buying our elections - CItizens United needs to go.
The ratchet will somehow stop ratcheting to the right?
*former allies
*vassals
Americans donβt realize that allies wonβt return for probably over 100 years.
As far as I'm concerned between that and being unable to afford a bloated military when the next stock collapse happens the world will finally be free of a great evil. Perhaps even a great Satan.
Meh, not likely...
Sounds very hopeful. A lot of damage has been done. Good luck though.
We were literally perfect untill "they" elected that guy
I have a feeling, he'll only leave office in a casket. I'm from EU tho. Maybe, from here, it looks more dire than it is, but he's meddling with voting rights, press etc and started a war. That's a way dictators install themselves.
One can only hope
