    American here:

    I would like for the civilized world to do a full trade embargo on the US. I want the economy to nosedive so hard that either the GOP votes to remove the motherfucker from office, or get crushed in the biggest electoral landslide in history in 2026.

      That is probably the most effective thing that could happen. But if they won’t do it to Israel for committing genocide then I doubt they’d do it for it’s political doppelgänger.

      the unfortunate thing here, is that the US and the USD is so integral to global trade, that we would probably experience a global economic downturn similar to that of the great depression.

      The only problem with accelerationism, is that sometimes it accelerates in a direction we didn’t expect or want.

      It’s very possible that whatever terrible consequences befall our political body have been planned well in advance by people smarter than us, or those in the cameras, and this whole thing is the groundwork for actually seizing and abolishing democracy.

      Best case, we depose a wanna-be despot because things go to shit.

      More likely case: we get both concentration camps AND a dictator.

          I don’t think you know what that word means, but it’s okay, even if you’re illiterate that just puts you in the lower 25-fucking-percentile in the nation.

            that’s unfortunate for you, since i am probably more educated than half the people on this site.

            Including you, call me when the NWO doesn’t take over the government and the US just collapses (or doesn’t, which is much more likely)

              I genuinely have no idea what you’re babbling about mister “I’m smarter than half the people here” big shot super important dude.

              It’s wild how the people who are most eager to profess their own intellect are always the ones who can’t communicate worth shit and are completely ruled by reactionary responses and surging emotions. Again, it’s ok. You fit right in with most American median voters. Pull up a chair and take a number. All the numbers are #1 so you feel important and special just like everyone else.

                i know, unfortunate that the illiterate retard (me) on the site is smarter than like 50% of the user base, truly some trying times we live in.

                It’s wild how the people who are most eager to profess their own intellect are always the ones who can’t communicate worth shit and are completely ruled by reactionary responses and surging emotions.

                i’m so mad rn lil bro, you couldn’t even perceive how angry i am right now, no cap, fr fr.

                Again, it’s ok. You fit right in with most American median voters.

                the american median voter has an overwhelmingly overlap with people being ok with donald trump. So.

                Pull up a chair and take a number. All the numbers are #1 so you feel important and special just like everyone else.

                so true, we stopped past that number, just didn’t need anything else, binary ftw.

      Translation: I don’t want to to go or of my comfort zone and actually do anything. I just want those other people across the world to fix it for me.
