Sweet jebus, you’re not joking. That really was fast. Thanks for being ahead of the curve for us lonely souls on the Fediverse - even if it was only for a few hours or so. And thanks for answering my question.
This aligns strongly with some sentiment I’ve seen around here. That what we’re really up against is just a cadre of goons that are laser-focused on short term greed, a very simple playbook, and little else. I say “goon” only because I’m at a loss for a word that means: “dangerous like a cornered-and-hungry predator, yet piloted by weaponized levels of stupidity.”
The biggest issue I have isn’t that they’re evil. Though obviously that’s a huge issue, but that they are woefully incompetent. We’ve seen this type of evil before in the USA. Richard Nixon is obviously well known to be a greedy goon. But he did it in a way people didn’t really see it until after he was impeached. Trump is way too obvious for his own good. Though, maybe that’s a good thing… Burn it down asap
