the ironic thing is that the us govt has done a ton of studies on the ‘breaking point of society’. but they’re not science bros, so they’re just gonna do it their way.
even the canada thing. he’s literally costing himself a canadian conservative govt that was all-but guaranteed. but he doesn’t want that with canada; he just wants (edit-typo) manufactured conflict.
but you’re absolutely right. he’s doing everything he can to cause riots so that he can enact “marshall” law and crack down once and for all. my god, why can’t my american neigbours all see it?
Update. That election ultimately did end up in a conservative loss. In no small part to the trump attitudes on geopolitics and the nonexistent “culture war”
i just wrote a whole fucking paragraph, hit send, and it disappeared. i need to remember to write my shit in a text editor when i’m on lemmy.
i defy anyone to show me any other reason that this historic swing solely due to the actions of one particular idiot.
i went on in my first draft to describe how politics in canada still have some nuance, and that this was an indication that TONS of people who were ready to kick red to the curb had to hold their noses to vote for our sovereignty.
but - to me - this shouldn’t be the way things should be going. i agree with a lot of people in that the liberal party really needed a reckoning. if harris won in the us, i’d have been fine with a conservative pm. but pp definitely didn’t do himself any favours, either, and it would have been a lot of OTHER people holding their noses to vote pc. hell, i’ve been impressed with doug ford lately, and i didn’t think i’d ever say that.
so now that i’ve typed this up in xed, we’ll see how many tries it takes to get it to stick. my guess, given my luck, is that it’ll work on the fucking first try now.
not science bros, so they’re just gonna do it their way.
i just think they’re petulant children with absolutely no self control
trump literally as old as he is right now would take the marshmallow in the stanford marshmallow experiment, and then try and convince someone that you stole his other marshmallow
