I know people who have reinvented themselves and left the past behind, and I know people who have reinvented themselves and carried on with their legal names. Depends on the person and the setting. To each their own.

Maybe, but I sound pretty American coming from the west coast of Canada?

Most of them invest heavily in defence contractors. I hope they suffer dearly. And they will, they will.

Sure. You realize that if you think killing people is cool and I do not think killing people is cool, that's more than a difference of opinion though, right? Using an extreme example, but we differ on more than just opinions mate.

Except he is using a playbook built by other people that we've only seen the gist of. This is manufactured, not eventual. He is also removing all consumer and worker protections. There is more too it, but keep turning a blind eye to just "more of the same" and see where that gets ya. I am saying the same thing as you, but I am alluding to it being a byproduct and not the simple end goal. They want housing under their thumb as well as worker protections and healthcare. There is malicious intent there, I'm sure of it. It is more than the accumulation of wealth.

Nope. I like my toast done on both sides.

Time will tell. It's all about the layers, but if you look at the current situation at face value, it makes very little sense, ergo something more sinister is a foot 3-4 steps down the road.

Oh right, I forgot about the collapsed economy and making enemies out of all our friends? Oopsie.

And yet he still did a better job than the Orange Mussolini? Figure that one out?!

IMO there is something more at work here. I believe he is collapsing the economy on purpose and evaporating everyone's savings, forcing them back into the labour force under any means. They want to go back to factory towns where workers have zero agency and are at the mercy of their employers. That is the end goal here, the rest of it is just the hand waving show to keep everyone distracted.
