ðšð³ China's dictator Xi Jinping made a veiled swipe at the ðºðž US on Monday as he criticized âbullying practicesâ and cast China as a new leader of world governance. â¡ïž What an irony â Trumpâs handed authoritarian dictators like Xi more than enough leverage to shanpoo the US www.cnn.com/2025/09/01/c...

Yeah, then go cosy up with Trump if thatâs what you fancy. The only snag is youâve nothing to lose â itâs the Palestinians he shoves around and the American working poor who take the hit. But hey, who cares, as long as you get to indulge your little ego trip.

Breaks my heart buddy but don't wank too hard over it. Now bugger off or start attacking other members of the Trump opposition.
Yeah, fair enough â youâre into Trump, weâre trying to get rid of him. Not exactly a âbig question,â is it? Now jog on, MAGA boy.
Buddy, Iâve no issue if youâd rather like to see Trump in power â Iâm sure heâll deliver all your political dreams. Until then, bugger off.

Thatâs your big question? While kids get snatched by ICE from playgrounds, federal workers are sacked, the CDCâs torn apart, Putin gets a free pass, Trump going for a third term, and low-income families lose healthcare and face higher taxes? Really? Go get yourself some help.
Thanks, and I completely agree. I get the sense that in their self-righteous crusade theyâre desperate for attention. Sadly, I canât give a dirty spoon the attention it needs to wank over. ð€£ð€£
So desperate . . . ðŽðŽðŽ
âŠAnd you know what really pisses me off? Those blokes waffling on about socialism or Gaza â in their so-called âfightâ they never face the fallout of defeat, while Americans, American democracy, and low-income families do. The saloon revolutionaries couldnât care less; they sit warm and dry.
Exactly â this is about American democracy and the wellbeing of low- and middle-income families. Iâm sick to death of hearing saloon revolutionaries claim Gaza matters more than starving kids in Mississippi or migrants all over the US. Gaza is extremely important, but Americaâs future is essential

Mate, no oneâs interested in your little self-righteous ego trip that landed us with Trump. Youâre out of context, out of the debate, out of relevance. Go home and enjoy your vanity parade at the expense of American lives.
You are celebrating that you stopped Kamala and enabled Trump? ð€£ð€£ð€£ Mate, as I always say, you folks are as sick as the nationalist white racists.
Mate, let me spell it out: if youâre not part of the solution, youâre part of the problem. But sure, carry on with your infighting while the rest of us just ignore you dimwits.
Welcome into the Trump enabler club ðððð
I genuinely feel sorry for you. You wallow in selfish self-righteousness while America slides into authoritarian rule, yet you cling to your pet agenda. Youâve learned nothing from the Weimar Republic or the Chinese civil wars. In the end, youâve become Trumpâs second strongest ally. Congratulations
EXACTLY
Sorry to break it to you, but right now the American people have far more to lose than just the governmentâs position on Israel. And frankly, many of those saying âwe donât like Joe Bidenâs stance on Israelâ either voted for Trump or sat it out â making them partly responsible for the mess weâre in
If irony and ðºðž hypocrisy could build up into a black holeâŠ

That's great. Especially when most of the staff is fired.
The Tories are morphing into a pound-shop knock-off of Trumpâs already pathetic âAmerica (fossil fuels) Firstâ act. Sadly, about 60% of Brits switch off what little brainpower theyâve got the second you wave a St Georgeâs Cross or a Union Jack at them.
Good to know! Still, that gibberish-spouting saddlebag is so incompetent, delusional, and riddled with pseudo-science that any politician with sense should demand his removal. Ah, but I forgot â the US has already claimed the crown of political corruption in the West.

Wow, Iâm sooo flattered 𥰠youâre stalking my feed, comrade. â¥ïž
Well, thatâs worked a treat so far, hasnât it? You geniuses gave us Trump â but apparently that seems just fine for you. But sure, carry on with your cosy saloon socialism at the expense of the American people. You get to feel righteous while they get screwed. Cracking outcome, comrade.
This is never going away, is it?
Well, Iâm only surprised itâs only Bernie Sanders calling for the gibberish waffling saddlebag-face to step down. After the almighty screw-up RFK Jr pulled at the CDC, it seems the only logical consequence to me.
Well, ðºðž Americans are forever insisting theyâre the âbestâ and the âgreatest.â One thing I can confirm: I donât know another Western nation with better â or greater â opportunistic sycophants or blatant hypocrites than the ðºðž US. ðð Congratulations!!
INTERESTING READ: Heather Cox Richardson on Trumpâs senseless wrecking agenda against renewable energy projects and infrastructure â and the devastating consequences for the US economy. As always, absolutely worth a read if you want to know whatâs really going on.
As said, âSocialistsâ havenât won a single election in Western countries, your programs and manifests are fancy but never get a majorityâ but instead realising that your battles against moderates and liberals is splintering the opposition and hands power to right-wing populists. Welcome to reality.
The spreading anti-democratic authoritarianism is harsh reality for Americans. This is not a playground for saloon socialists indulging in pointless trench warfare. In practice, youâre enabling the hard right just as their true acolytes do. So get realistic, compromise â or bugger off, comrade.
Mate, let me drag you back to political reality. âSocialistsâ havenât won a single election in Western countries â but their battles against moderates and liberals have splintered the opposition and handed power to right-wing populists. Moderate and left parties need to build coalitions. 1/2
Sure..., Viva la revolution, comrade!

Ridiculous Kindergarten games. And besides, it hasnât really delivered much for âthe left.â Honestly, for me it seems itâs far easier for "the left" to bash liberals already on the defensive than to take on the hard right.

"I'm thick as two short planks" would have done the same job, quite on the spot actually.

ð Congratulations on todayâs most meaningless gibberish comment. Now bugger off â there are still seats left on the flight to Beijing. ð€£ð€£
Yes, I get it â youâd rather focus on infighting among liberals and the left with differing views. Very helpful.
No, you wanna revolutionary clown, the problem is that you and your ilk donât even recognise who the real opponents are. If you canât live with differing liberal or left positions, Iâd suggest you emigrate to Cuba, North Korea, or China. Cheerio.
The problem is that the left spends more time attacking liberals than confronting the far right. Whether thatâs because itâs easier, or because the far left and far right share certain traits, I canât say â but I donât like either.
Well, Iâd go with terms like âfirstâ, âurgentâ, or âdemocracy-shatteringâ. But if youâd rather stay lofty while the ground is pulled from under your feet by right wing goons, be my guest. Thatâs how the Democrats kept losing. Forgive me if I and some other folks donât join that masochistic trip.
Tom â âso fat I can barely be understood and so thick I can barely string a sentence togetherâ â Homan? An insult from him is about the best compliment you could get.
Wow, glad you see it that way. Until two minutes ago I thought the creeping coup in the US was the main problem. But hey, if weâd rather fret over a bit of infighting while Donny grabs the country, so be it.
Is that really our biggest problem? ð€ Schumer is incompetent and Jeffries has never managed to find a strategy against Trump and his cronies. Iâd say both the internal and external opposition have far more urgent matters to deal with. But hey, Iâm not the one meant to be coordinating a proper fight.
I share that view. But faced with the overwhelming flood of right-wing misinformation, can we really afford to be picky? The liberal and left circles tend to waste energy on infighting instead of directing their full firepower against the rightâs disinformation.
I believe many in the military can see the shiteshow thatâs unfolding. But youâre right â the usual sycophants and career opportunists will wave it through.

Errr, so what? ð€ They should pay more influencers even more money. Do you really think the army of right-wing disinformation peddlers make their living by picking daisies in the village meadow?

Having a go at centrists again, are we, comrade? Whatâs your plan â an economic collapse like Bolivia, or a sham socialist dictatorship à la China or North Korea? It wasnât centrism that failed, but the unchecked tide of lies, hate and disinformation on- and offline thatâs now taking its toll.
Disgusting shit bag
