I dunno. Europe, the US, and Canada wreaked havoc across the globe for 400+ years and ppl continue the gloss over it. I'm voting for anyone not Trump but to pretend a facist sociopath from a white majority country never left a trail of destruction in their wake sounds like revisionist history.

None of them ever fixed what happened and now we have Trump. Only difference between then and now is its going to actually affect white ppl.

Right off the top of my head. Putin

Oh.

How is that pertinent to this post or discussion? Or do you just want to talk about Putin being a dick? Because I'm all on board with that.

Ah yes a lot of bad history happened so more bad history is simply meh and not a threat. You’re truly saying that a narcissistic dementia patient who dreams of being Putin with an out of control biased Supreme Court and full immunity is not a notable threat?

pretend a facist sociopath from a white majority country never left a trail of destruction in their wake sounds like revisionist history.

This has never happened in US history and that is notable given what the US can accomplish these days (and consider it won’t just be the US when Trump teams up with his dictator lovers). You think it was bad before? Does it make you feel good to paint this threat as just more of the same?

What a take, especially since this article is simply talking about how the ramifications will spread to generations, nobody is saying how this is THE greatest threat ever and anything else wasn’t shit.

Who are you even responding to
