@ProgressivePower On the upside, cults are easy to target and deluded by the popularity falsely attribute to them by the oligarchs media bs. Morons might take pleasure in violence and terror, but don’t have the courage to sacrifice themselves when given the option. Note the failure of MAGA on Jan 6th to take and hold the Capitol, so the later intervention by the oligarchs in the 2024 election. #Jan6th2021Defeat #RussianShowTrials #2024OligarchsCoup #YoungRecruitsFleeRussia #WW3 #RussiansJoinUkrainians #EuropeAtWar

I was worried about the state of the world after being on holiday and not sucked in to all the news for a while.. I tried asking different AIs that can access news: So what will Trump & co do after annexing all the places he is preparing to attack and annex now, and if a big conflict emerges, where are the most dangerous, and also safest or safer places to try your luck around the world?

Both moments of peak globalization came crashing down, in epochal, generation-defining ways. In 1913 the value of exported goods made up 14 percent of the world economy... The backlash propelled the rise of right-wing authoritarian and fascist movements that promised to reverse or seize control of the forces of globalism. It ended in a catastrophic world war.

What the #US and #trump will do when world trade adjusts and shuts out the US.

That's a counter to tariffs, the rest of the world will establish new trade ties and the US will be left out.

What will the US do then? #war perhaps?
Invading #Greenland to seize resources is not beyond imagination. Or the US will just act like #israel and become full blown #genocidal warmongering assholes and spark #ww3

Of course #Australia will get roped in on the US' behalf as all politicians here are cowards.

One thing that I haven’t seen discussed much about Trump’s tariffs is how it increases the risk of large-scale war going forward.

The free trade economic model adopted post-WW2 was specifically designed to make countries economically interdependent and therefore less likely to go to war with each other. (It was also intended to make the rich even richer, in which it wildly succeeded, but that’s another story.)

Trump’s dismantling free trade will undermine global stability for decades to come. If there is a WW3, we may be able to point to today as a significant contributing factor.
