Frenzied Trump, 79, Posts Crazed Threats in Early Morning Spree

>a monster as a messiah. This needs to be the title of the documentary that exposes all of the corruption that leads to the incarnation of all those who acted unlawfully under both Trump regimes.

It's not that part of the electorate does not discern the criminality and immorality though. It's that they actively want criminality and immorality. Trump embodies the idea that some people are above the law and should be able to do whatever they want to certain other people, and that is a major part of his appeal. His campaign was a call for violence towards immigrants, his political opponents, ... They support a monster because they too want to do monstrous things to other people, or at least have them done in their name under a cloak of legality or necessity. The end apparently justifies the means. And then there's the larger part of the electorate that doesn't particularly care he is a monster, just as long as the bad things happen to other people while they get their tax break (or whatever it is they thought they would get out of this). Both these groups didn't fail to spot the immorality. They just chose to ignore it or actively wanted it. Their delusions are bad faith, belief existing solely to justify their choice so that they can pretend to be good people despite supporting heinous people and their destructive actions. That belief can be real, of course, but that doesn't really matter. The consequences of their actions and the intent behind it are what matters.

Trump did the same thing Hitler did, tapping into hatred.

This even though the factor mass media was there in plain open sight since at least the third reich. The role radio transmitters and the „Volksempfänger“ played in the rise of the Nazi regime cannot be overstated.

They were all made martyrs and there are few things more compelling than the sense of righteousness low-iq individuals get from defending and avenging the “innocent”. 

We already have a Constitutional clause that bars Trump from running again. Problem is the SC said - "Nah, let's f\*ck the Constitution."

BTW this has been predictable for a long time. The american exceptionalism coalrolling fuckyeah patriotism that was drilled into a majority of the population is the cause of this. Some toothless hick in a trailer in Alabama thought he was better than a swedish lawyer because he was an American and he lived in the bestest and greatest country in the world. I'll grab the russian comparison again because it's so fitting. Many live in squalor. Poor, drunk, freezing. But they all think their country is better than the degenerate west. Eventually this thinking creeps to the very top. We don't need anyone. We are the very best and everyone has to do what we want. Trump is America because he THINKS like many Americans. He can do whatever he wants and other countries better listen or we'll bomb them until they cry uncle.

It's difficult to frame this law in a way that doesn't leave room for abuse. Even saying somebody convicted of treason can't run is open to abuse because hey let's convict our political opponents of treason in sham trials! You are digging into more constitutional questions. You are saying somebody convicted of a coup shouldn't be able to run. But what if the people want the coup? What if they want a regime change? Trump attempting a coup and then being re-elected is actually just proof that Americans WANTED the coup. As opposed to ya know Trump seizing power via the military like coups usually go. In this case the people were consulted and they said yes please. The US failed a national IQ test not once but twice. I don't think the government should be in the business of dictacting who can and who cannot run. Government should be focussed on guaranteeing fair and safe elections and giving people the tools to make the right decision. Anti-propaganda laws and sponsorship disclosures are good and healthy. Separate news from entertainment clearly and punish news stations that report falsehoods. Of course this needs an independent, maybe even international commission or you end up with state propaganda.

They did. It made Reddit so much nicer. Filtered by link so anything to specific websites would not show. Got rid of so many spam posts where the same article was posted everywhere, then again when the other outlets put out their own AI piece on what the original article said. Ran out of feed a lot of times which helped keep the phone out of my hand.

> old.reddit my friend, the pleasant ui.

old.reddit is the only reddit!

Yup. Always some variation of “SLAMMED”, “Desperate,” “Collapse,” etc…
