    I get the feeling, but the usa people elected him twice, and Bush twice, so assume the usa people will vote for another psychopath again. Dealing with him is a short term fix but there will be another. Think about what has to be done to inoculate yourself from people in the usa over the long term.

    Same goes for killing Khamenei, there's always someone next in line. It doesn't mean killing world leaders has no effect...

    Don't you realize how big it would be if Iran manages to kill Trump? It would mean the US President is not untouchable. No foreign actor has yet killed a US president.

    Yeah but it's like 9/11, all it will do is allow even crazier nutjobs to feel vindicated and make things even worse.

    True, violence only leads to more violence. I don't believe it's ever the solution.

    However, Trump is making me question this.

    I was born naïve, but I was never that naïve. That’s the kind of pablum the oppressor tells the oppressed lest they rebel.

    What is naive about it? The only way to lasting peace is through talks. No amount of violence establishes lasting peace.

    There is no clear thing that our "oppressor" wants us to think. Pacifism being naive is the kind of thought the weapons industry wants you to have.

    This is a category error. You’re confusing the US for a democracy when it’s a dictatorship of the Epstein class, of the capitalist class. The elections are largely kayfabe.

    In the age of algorithmic censorship, of unaliving and sewer slide, it's surprisingly refreshing to see a huge banner that just says "we will fucking kill you."

    "In your opinion, if anyone around the world wants to take their revenge on the assassination of Soleimani and intends to do it proportionately in the way they suggest — that we take one of theirs now that they've got one of ours — who should we consider to take out in the context of America?

    "Think about it. Are we supposed to take out Spider-Man and SpongeBob? They don't have any heroes. We have a country in front of us with a large population and a large landmass, but it doesn't have any heroes. All of their heroes are cartoon characters — they're all fictional."

    Trump is basically a fictional cartoon character, so this checks out.

    They are closing a deal?

    Trump had their head of state assassinated, barely a month after illegally kidnapping Venezuela's head of state. He's the one choosing to set these new norms.

    Mission statement? Guiding management vision? Leadership and stakeholder sentiment? Global and I mean global desire

  • The US and the West as a whole has millions of Trumps, they're just not as privileged as the current prez. They're equally sociopathic, extremely selfish and immoral though! How will we fix a society that loves evil?

    At least 30 more years of unnecessary wars in the middle east

    If they wait a minute the passage of time ought to take care of it for them.
