And he shamelessly admits that the end goal is state managed slave labour...

[-] Bleys@lemmy.world 128 points 4 months ago

Threatening a foreign citizen (and former PM no less) with

  1. Invasion of his home country
  2. Expelling him from that country
  3. Forcing him into manual labor in another country (which also is currently independent)

That is insane, even as a joke.

[-] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 44 points 4 months ago

As someone else pointed out, Trudeau was the PM at the time of the post so I'd say even more insane.

Civil world war!!!! People with souls vs everyone else.

[-] forrgott@lemm.ee 36 points 4 months ago

Ever read anything by Terry Brooks? He had a series of modern fantasy books where the world is basically ending, demons walk amongst us, that kinda thing. Anyway, servants of the void who "sold their soul" were known as Once-Men. As in they were human once, but not anymore. I always found that rather fitting...

He's wild for that. Never thought I'd see Ben Shapiro go that far. What a nut.

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 27 points 4 months ago

There are genuinely intellectual conservatives but the oligarchic media intentionally prop up pseudointellectuals to further dumb down the population. And I guess it is working.

Let us all remember that when the Soviet Union fell, they did not end the Cold War, they just changed tactics.

It's well known that their most effective tactic for destabilizing a nation is to pour resources into boosting both sides of every debate or social issue, this poisons the well so nobody knows what's real and just defaults to whatever the controlling party says is real. It's an astoundingly effective tactic for killing the spread of news and information that people could use to organize, and sowing infighting and distrust between potential oppositional groups.

They are doing a very similar tactic right now, by boosting absurdism like the whole narrative of an "armed takeover of Canada" as if that's even possibly a thing. Casual browsers know somewhere in the back of their mind that it's absurdism, but they hang on every word because it's sensational.

This is WWE theater. Like the whole administration since the beginning, it's designed to spin stories to keep dumb fucks engaged and wondering what's going to happen next, simultaneously believing in the stories but also knowing logically it's not true. Literally the same cognitive dissonance that made us have to argue with our friends back in the 90's that no, the World Wrestling Federation is NOT employing actual necromancers, that no, it's not a real sport, no the performers would not be allowed to bring swords and weapons into the ring if it was real.

USA has no actual intention of taking over countries like Canada and Panama, they just want to make some huge distraction and sensational story, so that when they change interest rates or deregulate some banking laws, nobody will notice. We'll all be here arguing with each other if it's even possible for the USA to "take over" a neighboring nation, with the same earnestness that we used to explain that using a steel chair in a sporting event could be considered disqualifying in normal circumstances.

This isn't to say the rhetoric isn't dangerous, but what they're doing financially is going to be far more damaging to our actual future in America.

Hell, not even the US wants to be a part of the US under the current dictatorship.

And when libtards rise up, you and your dry-wife will be raised up, too.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

And when libtards rise up

checking the history of Italy from 1919 to 1940

I cannot find anything in here about liberals rising up. Did you mean... socialists?

It's very clear that the only thing Ben knows about Panama is that it has a canal.
