Homelander Posted April 12 Author Posted April 12 Trump’s vision of a “strong” America looks a lot like the Gilded Age - a time when: Women silenced—no vote, no voice. No labor laws. No protections. Children in mines, not schools. The poor paid. The rich didn’t. Jim Crow ruled. White supremacy was law. Indigenous lands stolen. Cultures crushed. Immigrants exploited, blamed, and broken. 1% owned half the country. Everyone else scraped by. It's not just history - it’s a warning.

First Jim Crow reference since Georgia voters were denied water. Nice job. 1
Homelander Posted April 14 Author Posted April 14 It’s interesting how so many of Trump’s moves seem to end up helping the wealthy or powerful more than the average person.

Meanwhile, less opportunity to manufacture widgets here. Win-Win.

With the consent of their governments the Triads and Mexican drug cartels already have a mutually beneficial partnership so executing this deal should be seamless. 1

It’s how it always goes i don''t think anytime soon. the easy picking (pardon the pun) has been done. Grape picking machines have been around for decades. Carrots, beets and potatoes not so much. if they were cost effective and efficient they be in use.

When your party kinda sorta but definitely not today supported bringing production here, and relying less on China. Because they’re evil. And you’re rooting for them. Good work folks. You’re on a heater bringing in a new coalition this week.
