Mix of what’s going on. News says one thing, social media says another.
So yeah I think you’re right, but I think the point is civil war.
We gotta somehow unify and get one another to see it’s a class war.
Edit: I want to make clear that I feel this way because I think Donald Trump is way way smarter than we want to give him credit for. The man understands attention. That’s why he dominated in 2016. And that’s why he’s dominating your news feed now. This is not an endorsement.
The one thing Trump and Musk are both actually intelligent about is controlling the media cycle. They know how to draw focus to pointless shit so they can do their real deeds without attention.
Ive been saying for a while that the constant barage of Trump and Elon memes makes us think they are significantly less caipable than they are. What are the odds that the commander in cheif of the worlds most powerful military and leader of one of the worlds superpowers AND the worlds richest man, owner of one of the worlds most popular social media platforms BOTH got there by bumblefucking their way to the top? Either “they are smarter and more caipable than we give them credit for by a wide margin” or “We couldnt stop two fucking morons when they told us their plan”… Imagine losing control of American democracy to Pinky and the Brain if it was two Pinkys.

Funny thing about that: the theme song lyrics say “one is a genius; the other’s insane” but don’t specify which is which. There’s a fan theory that Pinky is the sane one, and his seeming non-sequiturs are actually him thinking many steps ahead.
From that perspective, two Pinkys could indeed be more dangerous than two Brains, yet even more easily underestimated.
The fact that you have to clarify at the end that you are not endorsing anything about the current administration, so your own side doesn’t rip you to figurative shreds, is part of the reason you guys lost the election, and part of the pervasive issue with Dems
Trump sure as hell is only signing those EOs because of the titles they put on them. This fucking guy can barely read at a fifth grade level. Sure, he put the guys in charge of things that he wants or thinks he does cause they suck up to him. He’s a fucking moron.
That “Fucking moron” just dismantled democracy and installed himself in one of the 5 most powerful seats on earth… but you keep underestimating him on Lemmy and see how that works out for you.
RESPECT YOUR OPPONENT. Even if you cant stand the cheeto colored rat bastard.
I think the whole point of the ridiculous shit he’s done in week 1 is to abuse the slow speed of virality.
Freeze budget, content gets created, gets reversed, frozen budget content is peaking viral.

Like run tesla into the ground? Must be doing the art of the deal.
I did say the one thing they were intelligent about.
True, that’s my bad.

He didn’t do it alone.
Smart enough to know when to delegate! I like this guy already!
