Cre8Fire @cre8fire.bsky.social

I am a programmer, political junkie, and wolf aficionado.

Pissed off left-leaning independent. Pissed off and independent because Republicans are stupid and Democrats are spineless.

We all want to know what to do, but none of us is willing to accept the answer to "What is left that we can do?". So...

Following is what to do to prepare for this LITERALLY becoming the 4th Reich. This is dark to contemplate, but it's historically accurate resistance tactics for the worst case.

My Hungarian friends - may you throw off your fear and throw off the chains that bind you to monsters. May we all. Best wishes to Peter Magyar.

"Reflexive control is a Russian-derived concept in asymmetric warfare that manipulates an adversary's perception by feeding them curated information, causing them to voluntarily make decisions that are detrimental to their own interests."

So - US ships are stuck in the Persian Gulf, Iranian ships are not, and we dropped the sanctions on their oil, so theirs is what gets out.

This helps Iran, Russia's ally.

And we're going with this was a mistake, a strategic blunder?

That just happened to help Trump help Putin?

OK then.

Let's face it - the biggest problem is a total lack of principles.

There's no action they won't take just because it is "wrong". Transactional morality.

Sure enough - we're in the "We're just going to lie about it" phase still. Clowns.

The amount of people who have no clue that the cease-fire is not really a thing is disturbing - the entire media industry talking about what's next, who won, etc., and the price of oil. It's like they believe they can make reality just by saying it over and over.

Oh right, they do believe that.

Penning a hot take on the "cease-fire"?

What's really going to bug you is when you ask yourself whether Trump setting up Putin's ally Iran with a funding stream like charging for passage through the Strait was an accident.

At $2M/tanker, that oil money would fund the construction of 7000 Shahed drones.

PER.
DAY.

One of the greatest propaganda successes of the current Republican Party is convincing folks that it is "just Trump" among Republicans that is beholden to Putin. They don't "Refuse to admit it" - they are ALL IN ON IT.

I am left wondering how many times it would have ACTUALLY taken of us saying "There are no guardrails" before you lemmings understood it - because there's a bunch of people crying out for guardrails we already told you weren't there any more.

One more time:

THERE. IS. NOTHING. TO. STOP. THIS.

Bibi and Putin are in a fight for global influence with Trump.

Bibi now royally pissed at Putin for giving targeting of ISR energy sites to Iran. This power struggle in their organized crime ring is a global mess.

Dystopian horror story in a sentence:

"By the time the poor went for the torches and pitchforks, they were met by an army of automatons whose allegiance to the rich was preprogrammed and who were wholly unconcerned with their lot in life or whether their rights were being respected."

Yours?

An excellent thread. There are problems from outside, yes - but there are structural problems within as well that we must correct.

Close, but a little more complex than that - it's deliberate (whether Trump is aware or not) sabotage of the US government. Yes, stealing as much as they can while doing so, but with the purpose of removing impediments to their GLOBAL transnational organized crime syndicate. Trump, Bibi, MBS, Putin.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

I highly recommend that the makers of the Patriot missile learn that really quickly and speed up production and reduce cost, or you will be replaced by a cheaper version created in Ukraine out of necessity. Fire Point will make you obsolete.

OMFG NO, a cabinet and VP who are absolute butt-kissing ego-stroking (at the least!) sycophants are not going to invoke the 25th.

Accept that isn't going to happen and move on.

Wait - is everyone still assuming those in power want, care about, or even need the will of the people?

They are planning to not need your support, they are planning to rule over us by force if necessary.

Plan accordingly.

I feel like a broken record.

What's really going to bug you is realizing that the horrible consequences of his actions on the United States are not an accident of his bumbling, but a direct result of plan to cause damage to the United States and the international order in order to empower a transnational organized crime ring.
