That's the problem though, everything is a distraction from everything else. We won't see a shred of justice about Epstein, likely not even if republicans lose in midterms. But everything else is also wrecking society and our economy, it's just the zebra-strategy of having too much confusing shit at once so nobody can focus on one target.

We don't even talk about the USAID cuts and those have actively killed more people and caused more suffering than anything else Trump or Epstein have done.

There's too much to swing at any one thing, we have to shore up and build community and mobilize both activism as well as electoral actions.

His admin is like 17 ideologies in a trench coat using every horrible thing happening to distract from the horrible thing they are doing, while the other 16 are doing the exact same thing. I think it's why they have so much trouble keeping things quiet for long, eventually everything has to be cover for everything.

While the word “the” is pronounced with a long “e” sound in certain cases, the word you were looking for is spelled “thee” as in the objective case for the pronoun “thou”

Like most horrible things in the world, it's ultimately the fault of the British.

Iran this time. Big bad USA is coming in and will hopefully topple the current regime but in fact he’s probably just going to start bombing the shit out of them because the current leader won’t bend to trumps will. The USA is coming for Iran.

This is Venezuela all over, but this time the other side also has war ready tools and other world governments backing them up.

Even if they did, they're probably going to install that guy that wants to be king of Iran as a puppet monarch (he and Trump are buddies). Which is going to cause more trouble down the line.

Yep this doesn't give me the feelgoods - “Their decision is incorrect, but it doesn’t matter because we have very powerful alternatives.”

[–] HumanOnEarth@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago

Hey no worries he's just ignoring/circumventing the Supreme Court. Not like anyone is going to stop him.

Just another day.

Is Trump going to invade Poland???

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Trumps gonna invade Iran to distract from the Epstein files. Russia will invade Poland to distract from Ukraine.
