Now watch the effects ripple through the world. Now that a guy like him can be elected, politicians around the world will take note and use the same playbook. And it will probably work.
We already felt it in France with the 2016 US election, I can’t imagine what the next decade will be like…
And I wouldn’t be surprised if Taiwan was next now
Please take them back, we have enough self absorbed assholes to deal with already.
Especially these people indeed, it’s one of the reasons they get so rich in the first place.
And more often than not, these companies rely on handouts from the government anyway.
Yeah I had the opportunity for that recently, completely unmasked in front of someone I didn’t know. And holy crap it feels strange…
Same goes for fascism…
I use both depending on the mood, but I noticed that baking soda neutralises the taste of tomato whereas sugar neutralises the acidic taste.
It’s ok for this to happen to other people but not me! I’m special!
I’d not be surprised if these attacks were linked to the recent lawsuits IA had to go through concerning copyright and such…
And energy dense too!
It also requires a literal village to run and maintain.
And that’s the problem, I don’t want to see a nuclear power plant managed by fucking Amazon or Google.
Yeah, I believe that too. As an actual proportion of all living people, actually (as in from birth, with a pathological lack of empathy or similar) bad people are most likely a very thin minority.
The rest come from nurturing (friends, family, economic situation), political choices (affordable healthcare, housing, food safety), and bad luck.
We are also gullible and ignorant most of the time, which probably doesn’t help either.
They’re sanewashing him more than anything
If I remember correctly, it scans system files and replaces broken/corrupted ones. It can work on some issues, but it’s not a fix all thing.
Also try SFC /scannow
Yeah, because of US interference and the EU complacency on having a unified army/defense system, we’re absolutely not ready if the US went rogue with a guy like Trump.
It’s very worrying for the future …
It’s something we should have done back in 2016 already, heavily reducing our reliance on the US in cases like that. Be it militarily or economically. The EU can’t keep being the third player in whatever world we are heading right into.
For reference, Apple currently has roughly 70 billion USD as cash on hands. 2.5 million USD is 0.0035% of their cash reserves.
If you have a yearly salary of 50k USD, that would be equivalent to losing 1.78 USD.
I am bad at math, so feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.
“yeah but that can’t happen to me because everybody loves me” - Trump probably
It’s not like he knows (or remembers) much about history
The US has a massive political and cultural influence all over the world. Trump’s victory will open a whole new Pandora’s box when it comes to geopolitics, climate (in)action, and support of racist, sexist and xenophobic policies. His campaign strategy will probably be used by politicians all over the world, and will embolden them to try more and more unhinged bullshit.
I don’t know how it will personally affect you, but it probably will in many many direct and indirect ways.
