One of the biggest topics in the history of this time is how the media simply ignored this guy's ignorance, poor cognition, mental health issues, lack of basic morals and simply treated everything he said as a a serious proposal instead of as the unhinged rambling of a truly foul human being.

Just a reminder that Trump's tariffs specifically target corporations like Apple, who has 95% of its manufacturing done in China, Vietnam & India. Apple ain't going to pay those huge Trump tax increases, they are just going to pass them on to American consumers.

So very true Marie. The argument about over-population that always was spewed by the billionaires at Davos for years was that "the world does not have sufficient resources to support such growth", but they never finished the sentence: "unless we start allocating resources more equitably & justly."
TreeMarie MO (@treebeemo.bsky.social) reposted
I bet Thiel, Musk, Yarvin & the rest of the twatnocrats believe they are saving the world by depopulating it. The billionaires are actually the most egregious consumers of resources, much more so than your average peasant. So in reality, killing off the 1% would reduce consumption most effectively.
