Let's form one big union and re-negotiate the social contract
Minus five percent. Holy shit

If this desperate approach doesn't work, can we finally lay to rest the private development model?

I don't think we should be at war with Yemen

I honestly don't know what his endgame is. It's not trade concessions? It's like if you wanted to do economic damage to the country but not get assassinated by oligarchs

They're throwing American soft power into the garbage. Kind of a dream come true if I'm being honest

The EU will never federalism, consolidate, or militarize as a single unit. Its political system was designed by Europeans and is therefore too nonsensical and dysfunctional to do anything

Been seeing a lot of positions from Europe that would have been considered impossible to conceive of a little while ago. One guy wants an "Anti-NATO EU"

There's a lot he says I fund unlikely, but this may be the most so
While meeting with the King of Jordan and a visibly uncomfortable Rubio today, Trump now changes his position from yesterday and says the US is not going to buy Gaza, we are just going to take it: “We’re gonna take it, we’re gonna hold it, we’re gonna cherish it.”

I feel like the fact that Russian telegram channels are celebrating the work of DOGE is a pretty huge indication that what they're doing is not actually in the interests of the American people

Did a lot of unpopular reactionary bullshit when in power, ran on doing more unpopular reactionary bullshit, acted counter to several popular nationwide movements they could have tapped for support.

Failed to respond to an existential threat.

Nobody owes them allegiance this isn't feudalism
How so explain?

I would love to hear this explanation.

I’m waiting.

Today's history hot take is that I think Europe should have United again after the fall of Rome under French domination. Whether Charlemagne, the Bourbons, or Napoleon I think Europe would have been better off united

I think it's obvious that we're way past the point where we could win a trade war with China, let alone the entire rest of the world. The plutocrats want to return to Reagan but will actually bring us back to the great depression

Megalopolis is even worse in retrospect now that the oligarchs are in charge and they're exclusively destroying things without contructive ambitions

Trump's economic policy so far is like what the IMF imposes on countries in the global south to stymie their development. Standards of living are going to decline and it's going to be the fault of capitalists and capitalism

Trump acting like an accelerationist but not because it'll prompt anything, he just likes making lots of people poorer
Meals on Wheels America spox on OMB pause:

"the uncertainty right now is creating chaos for local Meals on Wheels providers not knowing whether they should be serving meals today. Which unfortunately means seniors will panic not knowing where their next meals will come from."

Always worth repeating imho that Trump's privatization regime will lower living standards of most Americans

It's never been more obvious that the far right is astroturfed to serve the interests of the wealthy and powerful
January 23, 2025 at 7:29 PM
Makes sense to me that Trump will try to expand the borders of the US. American global market share is stagnating so the only way forward is greater exploitation of the lower classes or political/military expansion.

Hope Europe is ready for a new influx of Syrian migrants

My hot take on audiobooks is that anyone saying they affect you differently than text books is just being pretentious and has no actual clue how the brain works

Hard to argue against us being a dying empire when we're following Britain's footsteps almost exactly. Getting kicked out of Afghanistan, spending fortunes on a war in continental Europe, and hollowing ourselves out with austerity. Hopefully the decolonial period begins soon

Trump's approach towards China won't be any different from Biden's imho. Tying to draw them into a costly proxy conflict hasn't worked thus far and hasn't even really weakened our other geopolical rival. Tariffs would hurt us a lot more than them. There's nothing left to do except maybe flatter them
