To all voters that did this… " You fucking idiots!"
Old man with dementia not able to follow the borders of his colouring book.
One night Musk and Trump were sitting in the Oval Office not doing much, as they like to do. Musk was out of his gourd on ketamine and Trump just shit himself for the third time since his last diaper change. Out of nowhere Musk says: “We should start saying “Sieg Heil” to each other”. Trump looks up, or at least as much as his failing body would allow, and says: “Why Elon? What does that mean?” Musk responds, irritation showing in his voice: “Well that’s what our brothers in Germany said, so I think we should bring back the tradition”. Trump, also getting angry, picks up the phone and shouts he needs a MickeyD hamberder right away. As he fumbles the handle back on the red phone, he shouts to Musk: “Yes, I know that’s what the Germans said, but what does it mean?!”. “I’m not sure, wait I’ll ask Grok” Musk responds. After a couple of failed tries with the speech to text on his phone, Grok responds using a voice suspiciously like Scarlett Johanssons. Grok explains the word Sieg means victory and Heil is a greeting (hail), Germans used to say this to mean they believed they would be victorious. “Why would we say it then? I’m already President for life, I already have my victory!” Trump exclaimed. “We’re going to need a war then” Musk responded.
“And that, children, is how WW3 started all the way back in 2026” the Teacherbot says to the class over Microsoft Copilot New 365 Teams with Copilot ™. Elroy shouts: “Teacher! That can’t be true, that sounds dumb as shit!”. “Language! We’ll have a talk about your behavior after class young man. I’ve already sent a meeting invite to your father, so he’ll be joining that call as well” Teacherbot responds. Elroy sighs and says “Ah shucks”
It is not trolling it’s threatening. Don’t downplay his psychopathy
You don’t get to make jokes like that without a lot of good will by your side, it’s like a surgeon saying they like to touch little kids while they’re knocked out
Every fucking thread had someone posting this shit and claiming his latest actions are just a distraction from the Epstein Files. Threatening World War 3 is a bigger problem and needs to be treated seriously.
It could easily be both, and regardless, it is in fact distracting from it either way.
Definitely would rather not have ww3 all the same
It’s because of the files he’s doing this. Release the files remove him.
It’s clear he would nuke the world before letting those files be released
I have to say, the false equivalences people come up with to tell us that ‘resistance is futile’ is quite insane.
“He’s going to invade France and then Russia anyway, better to learn to speak German than to resist”.
I’m sorry, the files will come out, there will be an uprising and he will be removed. And that will only be the start. You can screenshot your comment to show to your grandkids.

As you can see I’m still working on it.
Did they give him the crayons to color it in by himself?
Musk gave him the AI that colored it for him.
“Ah shit, is that Venezuela? Where was the one with the gondoliers then?”
Start putting the Canadian or Danish or Greenland flag over the US. Even better a giant white surrender flag in his favorite color.
Canadian here. We very much do not want any American territory. It’s got Americans in it.
You would take New York, Minnesota, Washington, possibly north Dakota nobody really lives there and would be easy to take over. I’ll move from Nebraska and become a resident if you do
If you want to become Canadian, why not move to Canada? There’s an immigration process you can apply for.
You’re still asking us to do all the hard work for you.
I offer you the west coast and northeastern states (down to NY) for Danielle Smith and Small PP. They can go galavant with the fascists in Florida. Maybe then Alberta can finally let go of its conservative chokehold
No, you’re not understanding. Those states may be “left-leaning” on the American political spectrum, but they’re still far right from the Canadian perspective. We do not want Americans.
Sort yourselves out, other countries aren’t coming to your rescue and would appreciate if you’d keep your politics more to yourself.
and would appreciate if you’d keep your politics more to yourself.
This. Though to be fair, speaking as a Dutchman, our media are also still completely obsessed with American politics. Can’t blame that on Americans.
Russia takes Alaska. Mexico takes the West Coast. Canada the East Coast. Denmark the South.
Our president is shitposting again, nothing new. The shitpost of him dumping wet shit by airplane bomber on americans is about the most accurate thing we have ever gotten from him. He, and his administration and donors, are shitting on us from a great height.
Then fucking do something about it. Your “what else is new?” attitude is realy bonkers. You country become a bad guy from every story you ever enjoined.
Great advice. Just overthrow the oligarchy. Except your own country is fucked in the same way following us to be sure. So maybe fix your own fucked system before castigating citizens for not stopping their super rich that have captured all major political parties across the west.
Here are concrete steps we can take to combat this (the titles below expand if you click them).
Learn First Aid! ⛑️
The future us likely to be violent, and It extremely important to have the skills to be able to keep yourself and others alive if they get hurt. You can never have too many medics.
Tacticool Girlfriend provides a great introduction to building a personal first aid kit, called an IFAK, which can deal with things like bullet wounds and other serious bleeding wounds. I also want to emphasize her recommendation of only buying medical gear from reputable sources (not Amazon!), such as North American Rescue to avoid fakes that could cost you your life.
But you’ll need to learn how to use that equipment, too. The best resource for that is to take a local Stop The Bleed class, which are pretty widely available in most places. They may cost a small fee, but can also sometimes be free. Alternatively, if you cannot access a local class, this video by PrepMedic will give you a solid understanding of how to use Tourniquets and Gauze for wound packing.
Injuries are less harmful if they are tended to early. Learning first aid can help conserve resources when healthcare becomes unaffordable. Having several medics in case of harm by police is an extremely powerful morale booster during a protest that may become a police riot. When you become comfortable with the basics of first aid, riot medicine is the next suggested step.
Establish or join local Mutual Aid networks ✊
If you haven’t already, get to know your neighbors. Mutual aid is a willingness to support and grow your community. This can include informal networks through friends, tenant/renter organizations, solidarity groups, and industrial unions.
These are groups using direct action to solve each other’s problems. Building strong communities makes it difficult for fascism to take root. The actions of the government are going to hit every community hard, and the ones who build trust in each other and work together are most likely to survive. We’ve been building a list of resources in [email protected] to help you on your way. Also check out this handy guide to find existing groups in your area.
This isn’t only for your own community protection. Your ability to organize today will change the political landscape tomorrow. When revolution occurs, the social organizations that show the greatest resilience through the regime are the ones typically calling the shots when the dust settles. When it comes to elections, get out the vote drives are useless if most of the voters are fascists. At some point, you have to do grassroots political education if you don’t want fascist candidates winning elections. Mutual aid networks are excellent forums not only for teaching each other good political ideas, but demonstrating them in practice.
Join a Union and Prepare for a General Strike! 💪
The most effective non-violent action we can take is preparing and organizing for a General Strike.
The country would be brought to its knees if suddenly deprived of profit and labor. That tactic was extremely effective in Chile in 2019, and had they not fallen for the trick of liberal reform, they would’ve had a successful revolution on their hands with virtually no bloodshed.
If you aren’t in a union (or even if you are, it’s worth dual-carding), consider joining the IWW to unionize your workplace (bonus: you’ll get higher wages, better benefits, and more time off if you succeed!) to strengthen a general strike if we manage to enact one, as most unions have a strike fund that can supplement your income during a general strike to make it more financially bearable (you should also save as much money as you can reasonably do, so it can also be used to keep yourself afloat during a strike).
And for our international friends, you should join one as well, as fascism is gaining momentum globally. If your country isn’t listed below, just contact the IWW directly in the link above, and they’ll help you set up a new local branch.
Adopt Security Culture and Digital Camouflage 🛡️
Sometimes benign seeming efforts can turn into unexpected personal data collecting traps. Like an obscure website for exchanging contact info with other students turning into a global ad-tech surveillance network (Facebook), or innocent seeming online personality tests being use to harvest character profiles. Even Etsy, Reddit, Tinder, and Duolingo are feeding information to US Government Agencies like ICE.
Security culture is commonly used to describe the general awareness of such potential traps and how it can affect groups or entire communities. This goes beyond mere individual privacy efforts, as without joint efforts these often fail to work.
Especially in activist circles, security culture is paramount. For opsec reasons not everyone in the group might be aware of what clandestine efforts others are involved in, but with a general security culture many potential data leaks can be avoided.
Movements are made by the volume of their participants, and the easier and less dangerous it is to participate, the more people will get involved. As more people get involved, individual involvement becomes even less dangerous, creating a virtuous cycle.
We’ll start it off with some General Advice:
- Mentally wall off personal uniquely identifying info from your online presence, actively build a habit of opsec so that withholding information is your default mental state
- Be careful about who you meet online
- Use different, unrelated usernames, passwords & emails for every account. And try not to connect to those accounts with your real IP address (use Tor or a VPN)
- Be mindful that anything done online leaves a trail
- agents provocateurs may seek to find patsies willing to perform an ill-advised illegal activity in order to legitimize police repression. If someone is trying to pressure you, especially if you don’t have a long and proven history with them, be extremely wary.
For a full guide on what encrypted communications platforms to use, and how to stay off the radar, read the Digital Camouflage section within the Monthly Meta post here (you’ll need to scroll down. I’d add it here, but it won’t fit in this comment).
Whatever I do is enought to keep my country from threatening to use military force against my most loyal allies.
Whatever I do is enought to keep my country from threatening to use military force against my most loyal allies.
Are you sure? Or is it just that terrible people haven’t spent enough time manipulating enough people to get the worst possible people elected?
Do you have an actual suggestion here?
I’d love to hear it. Seriously. I’m quite a long way from anywhere that ICE is active, and have no way of getting near or in any way impacting Trump. Economics don’t even seem to matter, as its currently spiraling, so I can’t even see a general strike having too much impact at the moment. Entire industries have already been functionally devastated by the shithead and the shithead sycophants, and nothing has changed.
What’s your suggestion?
If its a mass armed revolution, that’s just sending anyone against all this shit to die - there is a drastic difference between what the military and even
brownshirtsICE compared to what regular people have access to. That would just be a slaughter.What do you suggest? As you said, you’re doing something that you believe is somehow preventing this same problem, where billionaires have leveraged social media to manipulate and divide for the outcome they wanted.
So what is this wonderous solution? I’m all ears. I mean it. Because the “something’s” I’ve been doing (protest, working to establish local community networks for resource sharing, getting people aware of and off billionaire owned soc media, writing senators and members of congress regularly, contacting local politicians, etc - I’m definitely on a federal list by now) are apparently not as good as your suggestion of whatever you’ve been doing.
So please. Share your solution to fix things.
You do all that? Than you, and you personally only may have my sencire apologies and the world of admiration. And I’m sorry that it is happening to you.
But I’m done with the benefits of the doubt. I’ll judge you colectively by the outcome. And untill I see the systemic change your country is not trustworthy in my eye.
If trump died today, it wouldn’t be a sing of relife for me. It would be prove that you collectively broken your system so much that only thing that can stop tyrant in charge is time.
This is not the outcome of today. It is not happening since yesterday. You ask hypotheticals about my country. Until there is one person who is not using all their purchasing power, all admistrative presure and as much civil disobedience they have in their disposal, your country is not taking their responsibility and I’ll judge you collectively until proven otherwise. Feel free to do the same with me and my country.
Not everyone can do everything. But litteraly everyone can cancel their fucking Disney+ subscription. And all trump supporters are doing very well, becouse - collectively - a bare minimum of invonviniece seams to be harder to overcome than a shame of betrayal.
Posting “what else is new” memes is not resistence. Its rolling over.
You do all that?
I do. One of our friends is part of a group that makes sure a maga shithead representative never gets to enjoy a night out. Another friend is going door to door to talk to people and make sure they know what’s going on - and I can say several maga flags have come down as a result. Another friend was able to take an opportunity to get out of the country (she’s trans) and is trying to get involved with the support network there for others in a similar situation. My neighbors are Indian, and are helping out others who are heading back by helping store their belongings as they try and get to safety before ICE does make it nearby.
Than you, and you personally only may have my sencire apologies and the world of admiration. And I’m sorry that it is happening to you.
Here’s the thing - as I mentioned above, a lot of people are doing things. I can’t travel far without pain, so getting to DC or something to protest is a non-starter. I can’t even make it to the larger protests in my state because they are mostly pretty far, longer than I can drive. We have two small kids, so either me or my wife have to stay home.
Others dont even have that option. They may only talk to friends and family about the issues going on to try and get them to see the truth. Or maybe they make phone calls to representatives. Or they send emails. Or maybe they are burnt out completely and need a break to stay functional.
The point is - how much someone is doing doesn’t matter. You have no idea how much or how little anyone is doing. Someone who works from home and makes good enough money to spend time on other activities (like me) isnt doing more, IMO, than the person who works three jobs just to get by and shows up to one protest a month that happens to coincide with their day off.
I’ll judge you colectively by the outcome.
And so you’ve already judged me and that person spending their one day not working as being part of the problem.
Do you see why I take issue with such a divisive comment?
Nothing I have done has stopped Trump. And I’ll be candid, I really dont believe anything I do can stop Trump. I don’t have that kind of money, access, power, whatever to create that kind of change. That, by itself, is a depressing and demoralizing reality.
If trump died today, it wouldn’t be a sing of relife for me. It would be prove that you collectively broken your system so much that only thing that can stop tyrant in charge is time.
When enough people are in a position of power to prevent what should not be happening in the first place - absolutely. There are mechanisms to stop this, built on the idea that the people in office would represent their constituents, that they would not take such blatant (and frankly criminal) advantage of their positions to be so heinous and downright evil. This isnt the system being broken by new changes so much as it just not being good enough from the start to prevent it.
Posting “what else is new” memes is not resistence. Its rolling over.
Its also a way for someone to let off a little bit of steam, given the downright depressing reality bearing down on Americans who did not want this.
I guess the short version of all that is - its about as helpful as your comment painting every American as being supportive of this just because its continuing.
Most of us hate this. Most of us have absolutely no way to stop it, either.
The entire west is following, you are ignorant of the situation here, along with everyone else getting their worldview spoon fed to them by media.
But you are not are you? Use that insight to change something.
