Ova are tiny, so it would be quite underwhelming.

I didn’t fall for it and am honestly disappointed that I’ve become so jaded and mistrusting

But what if girl?

I see no reason why these are mutually exclusive

With a corprocrat in charge, the republic will be pushed towards collapse and the same violent thugs working for ICE will be cracking skulls before long. They will doom America to fascism or civil war, and the only way you will ever get stability lasting more than a few years is by taking control from them.

Trump will never leave office alive, so give up on an election against him. When there is a choice, you’ll be voting for a JD Vance style Republican who is actually the puppet people seem to think Trump is, or you’ll be voting for a Democrat. If that Democrat is a coastal elite who was only rejected by the fascists because Trump didn’t like him, you’ve already lost. The Democrat will have a better chance in the general regardless, so it’s primary or bust.

Oh yeah, you also need progressives to dominate in 2022 and 2024 down ballot, while the rich only need a king loyal to their corruption.

You’re definitely correct about a lot of this, but your biggest mistake lies in underestimating Trump. He will leave in a body bag, no matter how much the general populace or even the wealthy elites dislike him. The violent thugs and Christian nationalists fully buy into the strength he projects, and they will not dispose him for the elites. No election will unseat him, as he plans on rigging the elections fully by 2028 whether he lives that long or not.

A period of elites trying to establish regional divisions and a breakup of the union will come, but not until Trump is dead. This is especially true when you consider how interwoven the military is at a national level. There are no regional divisions, and so there will be no breakup until the military is more thoroughly weakened and corrupted at an interpersonal level. A sudden power vacuum and disillusionment with Trump’s administration by everyone sets the best stage for them to take control.

I don’t have high hopes that this will be anything more than a blip for him. Trump’s platitudes will be more than enough to reign in most of his base, and only a few that actually wake up.

At the same time, it’s not that this doesn’t help. The majority will turn against Trump eventually and the sooner the better. The question is whether they’ll do anything about it before he’s gone, and whether they won’t just follow the next king loyally.

I don’t taco-bout you because I don’t even know who you are

no, they gave the 100,000,000 day blinding stew

Yes please!

This is sweet, but who tf keeps trying rocks to that poor dog? :(

Even scientists like to get freaky.

This might be the most wholesome Bert strip I’ve ever seen

So were the SS compared to the traditional German military. Competence is not needed for their role. They are agents of terror, not agents of law, so them being randomly violent and unpredictable only adds to their effectiveness.

In all seriousness, people shouldn’t be forced to not visit beautiful locations that some genocidal government says they own if they’re already stuck in that shithole to begin with. Nobody should visit from abroad, but the government only stole the land, so don’t feel guilty for using it responsibly.

There is a strong pro American imperialist/pro capitalist argument to be made that Trump is terrible. In fact, liberals thinking they should only change things through the system when laws are rendered meaningless is ahistorical and foolish.

If it gets neolibs to stop being useless neofeudalists, then I won’t complain. Fascism will only be defeated through broad base alliances.

I think Trump thinks that when the ice sheets melt it’ll be worth it. That America will suffer in the short term, but have access to a giant archipelago in the long term that’ll secure his legacy as an American hero. Unfortunately for him, his very actions might make it impossible for the US to capitalize on Greenland in any meaningful way.

I genuinely think it’s in the interests of all other powerful countries to stoke regional tensions over the next few decades and break up the union, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s how things go. As much as I hate this country and think the empire needs to be knocked down a few pegs, civil war would not be a good thing. Such a heavily armed country descending into instability would be violent on a never before seen scale, and that violence will not stay in its borders.
