Trump

[Leo]

a true statesman. you can please keep him for awhile?

[Mr. Tea]

oh jesus christ you people

Did you see this recently? Trump's story has gone from "Russia had nothing to do with the election" to "Russia helped me get elected but it didn't involve me, personally".

tea stick to writing ab the occult On God (you're good at that!). i literally do not give a fuck who got trump elected. who gives a fuck if its true? was nae me. could not stand liberals w baited breath at this russiagate shit. and it just goes ON
he is impervious to every possible criticism. you can't Get Him. no Gotcha.
and most liberals can not assimilate that, they can not deal with it, they can not begin to comprehend it.
and they spin out so much and make so much noise bc of it it was right away, from go, worse than anything trump could do.
in other news trump's Recent Looks are some uh
reality collapse vibes in a big way.
maybe even more than the "welcome to my realm"/eyes wide shut burger-spread shot (and that's pretty hard to top)

HE'S PLAYING YOU

[Mr. Tea]

You sound a bit star-struck, to be honest.

[Mr. Tea]

HE'S PLAYING YOU

I mean this sounds quite close to the 'seven dimensional chess' nonsense that was briefly popular after Trump first got elected. It's important to remember that he's more a symptom than a cause of what's going wrong, and has been allowed to get as far as he has because he's useful in enacting very traditional conservstive policies like tax cuts and deregulation of industry.

I dunno, perhaps I'm only telling you what you already think about him.

[other_life]

we agree that he's symptomatic and not causal. "seventh dimensional chess" it's not that deep, he's having a laugh, he's shitting on everything. when i say he's impervious it's not in the sense his supporters say, though it's difficult to english precisely what i mean. i'm less star struck and more Tired

Will this just be the latest thing that we pray will bring down Trump (and any other guilty parties, Bill Clinton included) and won't?

What is it with powerful rich people and paedophilia? Is it just that a certain percentage will be paedophiles (who can indulge without being locked up) or is there some connection there between their need to dominate in general?

[other_life]

shits been goin on for millennia

[Mr. Tea]

It's the ultimate taboo, isn't it? Well I mean along with dead bodies or animals, I suppose. But there must be some thrill in doing something that, quite apart from being appallingly immoral, would get you thrown in jail for many years and treated as the worst of the worst even by murderers - if you were one 'little people', of course.

I always assumed (paranoid) it was part of becoming powerful. That you need to be compromised to be powerful. That its part of the contract. That no one is allowed to be genuinely powerful. There has to be a web of what's that Russian word? Kompromat or whatever?

I think the likely truth - that a man who chooses to behave like that because he enjoys it and because he can has become POTUS by more or less democratic means - is if anything much worse. Your idea kind of lets him off the hook. It's like Stannis burning his little girl because he thinks it's a grim necessity.

Yeah well we will never know so I'm not going to argue about it. I'm sure there's loads who do it cos they want to and feel they can get away with it too. But we are little people so we will always be in the dark.

I think Luka is likely closest to the truth. To be allowed in the club you probably have to pass initiation rites. Things beyond our imagination. They probably keep proof of it to use against you if you step out of line.
