Land of the free. 🤥

So what if we could make a vaccination against the ill effects of vaccinations, would that be alright?

Some will trickle down alright, 10% trickle up and 1% trickle down. Be happy with your 1%.

This was on World News yesterday, but I’ll repeat my comment to it here:
USA is a rogue state, the fact that they do these things administratively is complete disregard for human rights and complete disregard for the concept of operating within the law.
It is yet another example of how USA does not respect civil rights of people of other nations, and they don’t respect the sovereignty even of “allied” countries.
It’s disgusting, and it has infuriated me for decades how we in for instance Europe has allowed USA to do this, without as much as criticism.

There is no way it can be considered acceptable that USA can apply pressure on what a judge of a sovereign country or international organization decides. Not a judge or any politician or public servant or any private citizen for that matter.
But the fact that USA has the audacity to go after ICC judges, shows the extreme level of entitlement and exceptionalism USA feel they have in the world.

USA MUST be treated as a rogue nation, and we can’t allow them to continue. If Amazon does this, we need to ban Amazon in EU.
And fuck all the idiots that use Amazon cloud services, you should get the fuck away from American services already. It’s been crystal clear obvious that they operate illegally according to EU law at least since Obama was president!
Why the fuck are people still using their crap!

Fuck every American that voted for this. And fuck them twice when they claim they didn’t, because they didn’t think this would happen when voting for Trump. People were warned loud and clear, claiming ignorance is not a valid excuse.

Trump’s Triumphal arch is a joke, it has no symbolism of any value, where for instance the French “Arc de triomphe de l’Étoile” has double significance as praising the success of the Napoleon army, and as a symbolic memorial place for the unknown soldier, and today it has become a historic landmark.

What Trump is doing is putting up a huge piece of garbage of no value and slab his own name on it.
It’s a cheap copy of “the original” in Paris, both in concept and design. Much like a cheap Chinese copy of a Vuitton designer piece.
Trump has no style and no class, only someone completely without any sense of either could think such a project is cool.

What I notice is that the job losses mentioned are not related to AI, they are related to an economic slowdown, that on the GDP number is camouflaged by the AI bubble.

And while inflation remains reasonably low, it has increased 0.3% the past 4 months. This should not happen in a period with economic slowdown and increased unemployment. This is 100% due to Trump economics making conditions worse for American businesses.

My guess is that job numbers in January and February will be horrible.

Remember Elon Musk knows more about production than probably anybody else on this planet. /s

Which is probably the reason that in Denmark 30% of his cars fail their first mandatory security check at 4 years. And in Germany 17% fail their first check at 2 years. Previously unheard of bad results in both countries, even the cheapest cars are doing better!
And his rockets keep failing. And his FSD is nowhere near working yet, and his demonstrations of his fully automated robots are shown again and again to actually be remote controlled.

The guy is a megalomaniac, which some people confuse with being a genius because they are stupid.

Trump is a whining spoiled sociopathic brat. Ilhan Omar is a survivor of extreme hardship with remarkable character.
And Trump has the audacity to call her names?!

Trump is despicable while Omar is honorable.

There is no doubt who among the two is the better person.
Shame on Americans for allowing this shitshow to continue.

Great, these enduring protests need more exposure. Congratulations to everyone who is participating, they are doing their part to stop the madness.

Most Hispanics voted for this.
Almost half of Hispanics voted for this!

Absolutely, they probably have a pretty serious circle jerk going on there.

Chances are that he is not just lying, he is really that disconnected from reality due to both his narcissism and dementia.

And despite that Trump was allowed to run for president!
It was obvious what Trump did, even if it wasn’t obvious how to prosecute it. Trump was obviously not eligible for election, but nobody did anything to stop him. And Jack Smith was delayed for years so he didn’t have a chance to get the case ready in time.
It almost seemed he was delayed on purpose!

That a majority still think Trump is better on economy is outright insane, and decidedly contrary to the evidence.

Edit:
I wonder how the downvoters figure this isn’t contrary to the evidence?:

Inflation is just as high now as when Trump took over, while comparable countries have declining inflation.
Trump claimed he would bring jobs back in production, but instead we are seeing job losses.
The economy is slowing down despite the AI bubble. While even Canada is growing by a healthy 3% despite the sanctions by USA, The world economy is healthy, but USA is completely unable to take advantage of that or even keep up!
Trump has increased the deficits a lot, by his extreme tax cuts for the 1%.
With a slower economy and heavy tax cuts, there is no doubt the national debt will skyrocket under Trump.
DOGE was a complete and utter failure, that ended up costing more than it saved!
Trump is increasing cost for Americans on healthcare, undermining a lot of private economies.

What is the evidence that Trump did anything good for the economy? Anything at all!?

That’s pearl clutching, because you want him to not have won by a majority vote.
From the evidence we have he did, the rest is useless speculation.

Did you read the article? This is her response to a direct threat from Trump.
Obviously Trump needs to be called out when he does this.

If he doesn’t like racists, why is he in the party of racists?

His system is a bit like Scientology, where you have grades of “enlightenment” (insanity).
At this point he is working to get higher than just conspiracy theorist and is working to become a conspiracy terrorist.
The end goal is to become destroyer of worlds.
It’s a pretty funny game if you are good at it, and find it funny that people hate you.

The districting system is a flawed form of democracy. It can be manipulated, and a minority of voters can get a majority representation.
I can understand the origin of it, but not to let it continue when the flawed democracy of it is well understood.
