I’ve seen a few users here say something about how the stripping of the copperwiring of the US state by the US state is a conscious decision, made to develop a new economic stage. I think they’re wrong.
That’s what would’ve happened if Kamala got into office, maybe. What’s happening here is that Elon Musk is near the levers of power and Trump likes to golf. “Don’t attribute to malice what can be attributed to incompetence” is a bullshit redditism, but with Elon there’s something to it. Don’t attribute to strategy what can be explained by dipshittery.
The guy took over a massive social media site, one of the main components of manufacturing consent in the modern era and all he could do was make the public hate him.What you’re seeing is the Liz Truss of the USA. Javier Milei of the USA. They’re not always masterminds, sometimes they’re just stupid. The current generation of rulers are people who have drunk the kool-aid of capitalist propaganda. They actually think money = merit and that socialism is when the government does stuff
three branches of US government
Lobbyists: write the bills
Staffers: read the bills
Elected officials: come up with zinger titles
Somehow I don’t remember that from I’m Just a Bill.
Maybe they could put 50% of the mental calories they’re dedicating to reverse-engineering acronyms toward like stopping the nazi problem
Ah, but that would require a spine. None of those at the DNC!
Holy fuck I thought that title was a bit.
Somebody kill me please end this nightmare.
Do normal countries make so many dumb acronyms?
And if so, are there any worse ones?
The only redeeming thing of it is that it’s against musk
I mean sometimes yeah, but the USAs are always extra stupid sounding.
I always hear POTUS and SCOTUS and think, oh no that sounds like an illness or some kind of slur.
If someone called me SCOTUS I’s be like “The fuck you just call me?”
Scotus sounds like scrotum to me
the POTUS and FLOTUS gave the SCOTUS a LOTUS
I left a FLOTUS in the toilet bowl
I pulled up the most recent law on the Danish law portal. It’s title is:
Law on independent declaration providers regarding sustainability reporting
Very boring and bureaucratic.
The wacky shit comes immediately after the title:
We FREDERIK THE TENTH, by the Grace of God Denmark’s King proclaim:
Parliament has passed and We have by Our consent ratified the following Law:
Which seems like way too much bombast to have immediately after that title.
If you wanna see the real wacky stuff you gotta go to the citizens proposals. They’re always good fun
No, normal countries do completely boring things like call bills Bill F-82: Miscellaneous statute laws related to owning extra large pairs of shorts in 2023.
The F-82 anti JNCO Jorts bill was harsh, but not uncalled for.
Ours start with “C-” because Canada
Smart. That way if you forget what country you’re making laws for, you have an easy way to remember
Ooh, ours could start with “A-” for America
just shoot him with a gun like the adults you’re supposed to be
Lets see you “well, nevertheless” your way out of— well, nevertheless
How bout you democrats and every other remaining person of good will become 2nd amendment enthusiasts? Instead of this feckless bs?
Do appreciate the acronym though
deeply unserious
wtf i love backronyms now
