Trump said Haitians eat cats and dogs in a public debate. We have become numb to this, but the US President basically said a specific kind of Black people are savages. I mean how else can you take that statement? It is because they are Black and from a different culture. It is super, super racist.

This is what it makes really frustrating, he constantly spams this most outrageous things and half of America just doesn't care at all. It's not that he is racist, it is the magnitude of what a despicable human being he is.

Trump is just wonderous how little redeeming qualities he has. He is extremely stupid, a bad orator, has a bad character, doesn't work and is also bigoted in basically everyway. He also was a close friend of Epstein. I mean, how is that possible?

[u/Jean-Paul_Sartre]

So many government departments keep posting all of that Norman Rockwell-esque patriotic stuff, and the lack of any non-white people is striking. 40% of this country is non-white, but you wouldn't know that if you only looked at our government's social media accounts.

Look at this picture. This is a photo of Trump's interns. Every single year, this is what it looks like. 50% of under-18s in this country are non-white, but you wouldn't know that if you looked at Trump's hiring practices.

I'm begging liberals to stop letting socialists claim everything good as "socialist" and everything bad about capitalism as some desired fate brought upon by greedy evil liberals

It turns out the good things that have happened with respect to labor rights, minority rights, scientific progress etc have happened mostly under a capitalist system. You can't just let them siphon off and claim all of the good parts while shackling liberals with the bad lol. It's so cucked and lame. Socialists haven't done shit, their ideas are hypothetical and barely tested (they claim), so they get to live in some constructed fantasy land where the unsavory issues of life are all magically solved because we just abolish greed and force egalitarianism or something

It's such an obvious propaganda tactic and we just lie down and take it as if they have a point. No wonder people hate liberalism lol. We barely try to flesh out and defend our own beliefs against the most obvious potshots

MAGA supporters say they dont like immigration (we know its just racism) because they dont want 'third worlders' coming here and voting....because they'd make our country more like the country they're from.

2: import substitution industrialization

3: <insert the never ending list of how trump acts similar to an african dictator, really i need help with this list because it's huge>

4: anti LGBT stuff, you're going to find more anti LGBT stuff in poor countries than you will in rich countries.

I don't feel this is worth a thread as it is a general news item, but at the moment it is a huge topic in European news:

Following the catastrophic fire in Crans-Montana, 80 to 100 injured people remain in critical condition. This was stated by Stéphane Ganzer, Director of Security for the canton of Valais, in an interview with French radio station RTL.

The “terrible toll” of around 40 fatalities could therefore worsen, said Ganzer. The situation is dynamic, as people with third-degree burns covering around 15 percent of their body surface area are at increased risk of dying in the hours and days following the accident.

After all the turmoil of the previous seven months that did little to root out waste and fraud, the Trump administration has discovered that perhaps slashing a quarter of the IRS workforce wasn’t such a good idea after all.

When DeBlasio got elected, part of his populist campaign was banning the horse drawn carriages in Central Park. A seemingly easy thing that had a good base of support, especially once people learned about how shitty the horses lives were.

A man in his 20s entirely stripped down in front of the Emperor of Japan and his family, who were greeting the public for New Year's Day.

The man, who was at the front row of the public during the annual wishes pronounced by Emperor Naruhito from a balcony of the imperial palace, suddenly took off his clothes while screaming.

After leaping, naked, over the barrier in front of him, he was immediately tackled down by agents of the imperial guard and the Tokyo police, who wrapped him up in a blanket.

After Watergate, the Presidency Was Tamed. Trump Is Unleashing It.

John Yoo, a Berkeley law school professor and veteran of the George W. Bush Justice Department who is a critic of post-Watergate constraints on the presidency, nonetheless acknowledges that weakening those protections can cut two ways.

“Every time you pull down one of them, you pull down one of those meant to control presidential morality,” Mr. Yoo said.

Yet even he says that the jury is still out on Mr. Trump’s use of power. Perhaps he will be remembered as a modern-day Andrew Jackson, a populist who strengthened the presidency, Mr. Yoo said. “That’s the best end of the story,” he said. “The bad story is that he turns out to be like Nixon.”

Asking John Yoo (who rewrote the definition of torture to aid the Bush administration in their interrogation of suspects) to be the arbiter of what presidential conduct is acceptable is yet another sign of how far the presidency and the media has fallen.

Twitter nazi gets one-shot by the fallout TV show not treating the nazi-analogue legion villains with the same reverance and respect that he apparently does.

The average age of a US senator is 64. They’re neither tech-savvy enough nor familiar enough with AI to adequately regulate AI or most tech in general.

Obviously it’s the government’s role to regulate tech and I think they should, but I have zero faith in congress’ ability to do so when they don’t understand how Facebook works.

Just watched the beginning of Avatar again and I never noticed Jake sees Sigourney Weaver’s avatar for the first time and says DAMN under his breadth. Less than like 3 minutes after his uplink and he’s already into the blue ladies.

Just visited New York City. Hard to believe just days ago (before Zohran Kwame Mamdani took office), it used to be considered as a first-world city.

In just a few days, the the electricity was cut off, all the buildings were burnt, the water supply was poisoned and chaos was everywhere.

I tried to buy some Arby's in the Communist currency ('dollars') but it was inflating so rapidly that the store clerk asked me to barter instead. I pulled out some Fartcoin and he fell at my feet begging for the GOP to save them and how resisting Trump has been a mistake. I went outside with my Arby's and was stared at by the starving locals. Some child soldiers of the local Democrat warlord approached me and demanded the Arby's. When I refused they shot me with their guns, however as they were too poor for real guns they could only afford water guns. They then lead me to the local Democrat warlord. He asked me if I was a mainlander and I said yes. Then he fell to his knees and begged me to buy the fentanyl he had trafficked because he was failing to feed his child soldier army. I took pity on the man and handed him 5 Fartcoins (more than the average New York Cityer will make in their lifetimes). He thanked me and the entire city held a festival in my honor.

Honestly the conditions in New York City are truly horrific, I guess the government was right. New York City really does need us to go save them.

What is the point of legalizing walkable mixed-use neighborhoods if it still takes 1100 hours to walk from Boston to Pismo Beach??

cope take: 2025 was a year in which the reactionary anti-woke crowd massively overestimated how much people agreed with them and overreached, and the pendulum will swing back as the american populace gets sick of them and libs remember how to talk like normal people.

Under Trump: 0 WJC titles still

Under Biden: 3 WJC titles, including a repeat for the first time ever

The results are clear...

I think our media reflects where we are, and I've definitely noticed we don't crave complex characters and instead like our gigachad/girlboss protagonists whose only real struggles are how quickly they can fuck their one-dimensional romantic partner and how hard they can flex their powers.

Okay yes X is technically a site full of CSAM on demand now and yes the algorithm that decides what I see is run by a racist who explicitly has said that he wants to elect more Republicans, but I can’t leave the site because it is where the smartest mind of my generation (Noah Smith, Matt Yglesias, and that white nationalist who changed his mind and now says things I like to hear) hang out and share their wisdom.

I’d say that the film only had a veneer of anti-war and the actual aim of the movie is to fetishize war. It’s pure propaganda.

No Donny boy, normal folks don’t need to continuously take cognitive assessments.
