There shouldn't be Luigis in the world. Not because what he did is wrong, but because there shouldn't even be a reason to do it in the first place.
I want a truly peaceful and equal world. But when we live in a world of "rules for thee but not for me" and where the elite is allowed to profit from the misery of the people, there might as well be no rules at all - we might as well live in chaos and anarchy.
That's what happens when in the same week you have someone shooting a CEO for preying on thousands of lives, and someone lighting other person on fire in the subway, in the same city, and yet justice application is very different for either case.
Because if one of us isn't equal, no one is. Luigi is just a natural balancing consequence to the abuse of the elite - and try as they may to make an example out of him, the more they do it the more people will be driven to sheers despair and insanity, having nothing else to lose.
I don't mind losing. So long as they don't win and get away with it either.
Not confirmed beyond every doubt so far, as it's still fresh news, but Anonymous seems to have leaked 10+ TB worth of files on Russian assets.
There's a folder with Trump's name among them.
Still, if it really turns out to be factual, the UK had already warned the US about this in 2016, before Trump was even elected the first time, to no avail. Some people just know evil is evil, and still choose to side with it.
I legit wonder how someone previously condemning bad acts and bad people can do a 180° and suddenly side with evil. Almost as if the original was replaced by an evil twin.
And then I remember. These are politicians. Aka wannabe actors who play whatever character will advance their career the most. And unlike many actual actors, they're always in character, with no real personality underneath. Wolves in sheep's skin.
Reminds me somewhat of the game "Little Nightmares", where the bad guys are depicted as monsters hiding under a human skin.
I hate Trump, Putin, and every other piece of shit like them. But they are largely known quantities. Lower than a fascist, is a deceiving fascist.
Little Marco. Maybelline Vance.
It definetly was the platform ever. Like, no doubt about it.
I mean... His headache will surely end, forever, as will all other sources of pain...
Now you, lady... Depending on your personality and surrounding environment, I'm not as sure. Some headaches are inflicted. Others are chronically self-inflicted.
Leading by example. Yes.
Show class and integrity, don't just argue about the lack of it in others. Do what's right, regardless of what others may think, regardless of the waves of negative opinions trying to dissuade or turn you against your own ideals by acting rashly and out of sheers spite.
Sometimes I look at the politicians from my country, and think to myself "gosh, what a bunch of sleezebags. Even I could do a better job". And then I see this and come back to reality.
I mean, my politicians are still sleezebags, but not at this level, and that doesn't necessarily correlate to my ability to actually do better than them with no actual experience.
These folks are the me that didn't stop at intrusive thoughts. Who thought that just because they were raised on silver spoons and bailed out at every blunder they knew better.
Yup. Peaceful protests only work when the tyrant actually cares about the opinion of the protesters and may want to go out with even a shred of dignity.
That doesn't work for self-absorbed scum who believes they're above everyone else and thinks they can win by bulldozing the opposition - appealing to the good will of a sociopath won't save you, because there's none there.
He's calling the people's bluff, and he damn well knows the people don't want to get their hands dirty.
All the defense of school shootings for what? For a second amendment that isn't even used in the only situation in history where it would be justified? All talk, no action. And Trump is exploiting it big time.
Yes. But even more accurate in this case would've been the original meme format, where the US would be rage screaming "STOP MOVING ON WITHOUT ME!!! 🤬"
They've already even complained about the mere possibility of Canada switching trade focus to Europe, calling it an unfair team up against the poor little victim US which "would have consequences".
If there was an honest to God legal way they'd already have figured it out along with everything else in Project 2025, long before coming into office.
They're trying to find out a better loophole than the last one, which blew up in their face. And trying to find ways to remove the people in the way of said loopholes.
Absolute Justice! 🙌
Europe accepts its sons and daughters of long ago. Specially the talented ones who contributed to empowering science in the US.
Not the Drumpf family, tho. Those can stay there instead of returning to their roots in Germany. The last thing we want is a "Make Germany Great Again" movement - they're already great right now, no need to fix what's not broken, thank you.
Remember. He didn't back down (for now) because you were hurting as a person.
He backed down because his constituents - the ultra-rich, aka the ones best equipped of all to weather this storm they themselves asked for - complained that their power and wealth rate was decelerating.
Simple as. The people who build and maintain societal infrastructure with their sweat and blood would sooner be left to die than these elitists would see their unfathomable and unneeded amounts of influence drop even 1%.
I mean... Regardless of them being biased or not, or how good a President they were during their terms, didn't every single one of them warn the people this was to be expected when you put a clown on the White House? That it'd turn into a circus?
Even Kamala warned about it, and I don't even like her and don't see her as POTUS material. But even if she didn't do much as a leader, even if her term was mostly unremarkable, it still wouldn't be as implosive as Trump 2.0.
Words, at the end of the day, are just words. They're pretty worthless if there's no action behind them. And Trump calls that bluff daily. He fully knows people will complain and badmouth him, but won't go further than that. If you wanna call the bluffer's bluff, act, don't just threaten. And even if the worst the people can do to him is remove him from office (aka, no lenghty prison time, or remove all his assets and his friend's, or worse) then he's already won and paved the way for the next one in line to try his shot.
And to be clear - I did not vote for this. Like, at all, because I'm not even american. And yet billions of people are still being affected by this debacle of misplaced trust by our collective predecessors.
As far as a spec of dust such as myself can do, I won't contribute to this dependency ever.
I get to be the favorite of pretty much all the family pets. Always been.
Some family and friends joke that I probably could go to an African safari and the lions wouldn't harm me. Not really rushing to find out if it's true tho.
