My friend, my brother, my fellow lemming.
Using a /s is understandable here, but sadly completely undercuts an otherwise wonderful bit of satire.
Reading this I went through stages of fear and wonder.
"This is satire, it has to be right? Wait no this sounds exactly the right kind of idiotic. Oh god did the boomers penetrate Lemmy?? Oh fuck does this moron think Trump reads the comments??? Oh god no this has to be fake it must b- oh."
Oh god did the boomers penetrate Lemmy??
I think so.
I knew it was satire from the start but man, does it read so real. It was so visceral my inner lib squirmed in abject horror.
i wrote this myself but this kind of satire is nowhere near original I'm afraid i stole it from BadEmpanada. it's essentially pretending to glaze trump to get him to do something stupid to signify how stupid it actually is. but god i hope he does it. sure the world economy would tank but it would be way too funny.
EDIT: poor grammar is also part of the joke i don't definitely suck ass at speaking english it's all satire trust me /s
Predictions
-
Using fedspeak Powell basically says he'll never resign.
-
He resigns that week under mysterious circumstances. It's rumored that Trump directly threatened him and his children and grandchildren.
-
The US economy goes into a tailspin.
-
Trump, the GOP, and their propaganda media outlets like Fox News blame the democrats and woke.
-
Next year's elections are a bloodbath. For the democrats.
-
In response the democrats move wildly right.
-
The 2028 elections are another bloodbath for the dems.
-
In response the democrats move even more wildly right.
6-8 are already how the dems are dealing with losing to trump again (and honestly their 2024 campaign)
In response the democrats move even more wildly right.
At that stage they will have become indistinguishable from and gone back to their roots.
Ein reich, Ein volk, Ein vote!!
As an anti-US accelerationist, i couldn't in a million years have asked for a better president
He'd blow up what's left of the bond market if he did that.
