I don't know either, but I'm ready to find out and see if this nation can be salvaged in any way.

It’s not going to get better. Once Orange dies people aren’t just going to wake up to not being stupid racist and selfish fucks. They are going to keep on and probably get much worse.

I watched them film RoboCop 2 in downtown Houston when I was in high school.

 

The Omni corporation corporate office is Dallas city hall in the first one, and reunion tower and reunion arena are clearly visible in the opening chase scene.

True, but they also didn't wake up and become that way in 2016. 

I honestly have a very grim outlook on the future, but I am curious what a post-Trump America looks like.

If you want to get super depressed about the future, go down the AI rabbit hole. Spoiler: it ends with common folk being shot into the sun by trillionaires.

It’s been five years and he is still bragging about being made to take a cognitive test where he had to correctly identify pictures of animals.

Which sadly impresses me.  I can't believe he remembers remembering that one time...

I think the oligarchs in charge of this country are taking advantage of Trump's unique teflon qualities to ram through every otherwise politically untenable adjustments they want. After awhile they'll give us another Obama to make us feel good

The amusing thing is that he thinks a cognitive test, which has nothing to do with IQ, is an IQ test.

Well uh you see Mike the bottom 50% of the nation only holds something like 2-3% of the wealth the fact that only 10-12% of the population is getting "handouts" is actually some pretty incredible math.

And just throwing out “ghetto” so casually is once again them loudly and proudly embracing their very public racism.

About 35% of SNAP recipients are white, compared to 25% black and 15% Hispanic.

What are the other 25%?  "Asian" seems a stretch.

That means I was around 10 when I watched robocop in a theater.  Looking back, that may not have been the healthiest of decisions. 

Sliding doors moment. You could have been Pato del Vida.

Which ironically makes the whole thing into an extended IQ test.

60% of us live from paycheck to paycheck, as we prepare ourselves to live among  the first wave of AI sponsored trillionaires. The widening gap between the uber wealthy and the working poor will only get worse. The kind of income inequality were are experiencing is the stuff revolutions are made of.

It will not end well for the trillionaires. It might be their kids or their kids’ kids but somebody will pay the price for what they’re creating.

No, we are getting closer to this:

The Execution of Louis XVI in the Place de la Revolution on January 21, 1793. Found in the collection of Musée Carnavalet, Paris.


The French Revolution reminds me of the opening credits of Monty python and the holy grail …. Just with a headier premise

They've always been there and have always been stupid and racisty.  Before Trump, they a) didn't vote b) in a bloc and c) kept their stupidity, racism, and conspiracy theories mostly to themselves.  They need to be told to sit down and shut the fuck up again.

What’s even more depressing is:

A.) Janis voters won’t notice

B.) The situation will get bad

c.) The media will blame the CPB

d.) The dems will be blamed bc they created the CPB

Just wandering off in a daze, randomly saluting Japanese soldiers, and having to be coralled by PM Takaichi. But the way he attacked those two whole steps to climb up on the dais...he's the most fit POTUS ever!!!

He says he’s going to run again. I realize he is supposed to get 2/3 of the states and Congress to allow it, but some way this will go through the Supreme Court and they’ll allow it.

The entire American experience to this point has been like when my wife and I carefully craft a plan to get our son to behave better, but neglect to come up with an enforcement mechanism if he refuses to cooperate.

And it is more likely to get snap in rural communities.

Don't forget that SNAP along with USAID provides a subsidy for farmers because we grow more food than we need, which is likely a good strategic idea except for the part of it that drains the aquifers. 

I figured this out on my own years ago. President-Cognition-Who-Doesn't-Know-What-Cognition-Is Trump can't grasp it even if explained to him.

People stop drinking milk, so the dairy interest launched a massive eat cheese campaign. So good for America that children are raised as cheese addicts. It's why you also had 5 pound blocks of cheese being provided to the hungry of America. Don't want to lower production, lower prices, or pour out all the milk.

The pulled themselves up by their bootstraps billionaires and heirs say let 'em starve. It's motivation. They're right. Here in Idiot World, it's motivation to hate the illusory libs and the Dems and the woke and the intellectuals.
