Indeed, despite Trump being a known rapist and child rapist, he would normally still attack others for doing what he himself is guilty of.


That's probably not why actually. The usage of AI for propaganda in this way is objectively HN-related. But it's making the paedophile/Epstein regime of America look bad so the MAGA base are flagging it.


If the worst thing you can say about Harris is that she laughed funny, then she was certainly better and more qualified than Trump, who is known to be a paedophile and a rapist, among other things, though importantly also clearly mentally retarded at this point judging by his inability to speak and form coherent sentences. And I personally doubt Harris would have started this retarded war with Iran.


"She laughed funny" is a dog whistle for "a non-white woman".


Damn that shit slaps. The lyrics are actually not even that incorrect, the Epstein Regime is fucked, it's crazy how happy Americans are to humiliate themselves in front of the world and die for their paedophile regime and for Israel.


Seems to have worked rather well though.


If it works so well, perhaps delegate authority even more centrally. To the UN or so?


I mean you said it yourself, it's a compromise. Giving the states free reign to terrorise their populations didn't work out so great. The relatively strong federal government of more recent times however seems to have worked out not so badly. Now there's a retarded paedohpile in office starting random wars and of course all bets are off. The US political system actually probably is quite shit, but I don't think it's about centralisation vs decentralisation, but electing an unaccountable king every 4 years is just a retarded and easily exploitable system.


> Giving the states free reign to terrorise their populations didn't work out so great.

Be careful not to be anachronistic. When the US was a young country, before telegraphs and railways were widespread, most people's primary interface with the government was perhaps their municipality or at the highest level perhaps their county.

> The relatively strong federal government of more recent times however seems to have worked out not so badly.

I am not so sure. Different people in different parts of the country have different preferences. Much easier to satisfy them, if you don't centralise too much.

> [...] but electing an unaccountable king every 4 years is just a retarded and easily exploitable system.

Much better to elect 3,143 kings, one for every county. If you don't like the one your neighbours (and you) voted for, just move to the next town over.


"just move" is not always a simple act for the most vulnerable in society.


Moving counties is almost infinitely easier than moving countries, or replacing the entire federal bureaucracy to your liking (instead of the liking of that other guy).


You’re right, it’s much easier to replace the entire federal bureaucracy.


What an interesting and amusing idea. A king for every country.

Anyway.


County, not country!


Sorry, I couldn't even type it out it would seem, it was too silly.

Anyway, you sound like me when I was about 19, lots of abstract theories and ideas without any ties to the real world we find ourselves in. I don't regret it but I'm glad I grew out of it . It's not stuff to be taken seriously. All the best.


Oh, I put my money where my mouth is: I moved to Singapore.


Both Prussia and Austria made their names outside of the historically German lands and ruled over non-Germans. It was in the end Prussia that unified Germany in 1871 having previously defeated Austria. Both settlements following WWs 1 and 2 forbade Germany from unifying with Austria. And now in any case there is no appetite for it regardless of legality.


The USA is deeply sick.


We are captured by Israel and working against our own interests because they are blackmailing and bribing our leaders.


Because they don’t follow Israel blindly into retarded wars? Don’t forget nato is a defensive alliance btw.

The West exists in Europe. It’s the US that has decided it would rather leave western civilisation.


> The West exists in Europe.

The West exits Europe.


The west is Europe and a few other countries, but not the USA anymore. Pity.


As long as they can blame their shortcomings on the Clementine Cthulhu, it's all good with Europe.


Trumps greatest impact was taking the USA outside of Western civilisation I guess. So far. Maybe he’ll drop a nuke tho.

No wonder you lot are losing your minds over the fact the USA is no longer a white country. It’s not even culturally western any more either. Sad!


My ancestors fought for the North in the Civil War to end that whole "white country" thing.

But I support and defend your Constitutional right to flog that dead horse.


What dead horse? White nationalism's key role in the current US regime is no secret.


I love fake and nonsensical “neutrality”.


But Trump was even more egregiously poor. That’s what Americans don’t seem to understand. They’ve revealed to the whole world that they are a retarded people.


Well, revealed it even more.

All they had to do was put a little daylight between their platforms. Show that they believe in something different. But that is not their role in the Ratchet Effect.


I don’t think it’s helpful to treat the American people like children and do silly things like blame the democrats for Trump, especially for a people that is usually so obsessed with personal responsibility. The Americans voted for the retarded senile paedophile and they got him. It says something truly awful about the American people, mind, but personal responsibility extends to the political sphere, too, not just the private or economic one.

The American people are to blame for Trump. They got what they voted for.
