Negl as much as I ache to see Amerika get geopolitically smacked in the face again, I gotta side-eye people calling for nukings cause uh, the fuck, there's still Indigenous and Black folk here; you really finna kill us with the crackers?
What if we gave the nukes to the indigenous and black folk instead?
That's still nigh-irreparably fucking up the land on a planet already dealing with a precarious climate situation. I recognize the shitpost, but... Nah, homie.
I'm not saying to use them, just to have as a guarantee of sovereignty, y'know?
Oh that's totally valid; the Hasan strategy of "if you don't have nukes, get nukes"
This is the inevitable outcome. Electoralism doesnt work. Reform or Revolution? We get neither and I dont see Revolution taking place at the heart of the empire. Socialism or Barbarism? Barbarism would be Chuds voting for more State violence. The most likely scenario would be either a climate change catastrophe that will only benefit the US, or nuclear holocaust because blood-thirsty liberals wont stop pushing their luck.
I know there are good people in America that dont deserve nuking, I am not stupid (hey, I live here. I dont want to die), but looking at the whole picture unless the American empire comes to an end the number of harm/victims that Capital would eat and chew will continue to grow and get bigger and larger with time, it will encompass the whole world and future generations. If nothing changes we are going to end up like the Roman Empire's collapse. Instead of a bang, America will go out with a whimper, after centuries of crisis and bloodshed, and in the end we will end up with a polluted global wasteland, with endless hot summers with no end in sight, with roaming hordes of Chuds looking for an open McDonalds in the ruins of what used to be their civilization.
it has consistently been one of the worst recurring bits since the days of the sub. talking about annihilating the country like everyone who lives here is a wasp silicon valley lanyard imo says a bit about the person suggesting it even as a joke
