    Hey, almost like the point of all this shit is to batter libs into complacency when the system does excactly what it has always and will always do but now they’re not as benefited by it in the same way they used to be.

    Literally, it would only take one person to stop him, or people near him, or destroy any property of companies that support him with the explicit objective to punish that support. It also has been happening, more than they’d ever admit, but because the system is not overturned the day after middle class libs sour on it, they turn to doomerism because that is the preferable option to accepting the work.

      So, my options are either presidential assassination or ignore Trump news?

      I’ll not be assassinating anyone and you won’t suggest anything productive other than some kumbaya, “take care of your neighbors” bullshit. So, to take care of my mental health, I’ll avoid every single tiny thing he does that media garnishes outage with.

        Lmao, yup, exactly that’s the point. We all know you have a reaper drown in your garage.

        That you seriously did not consider what the work I had referred to was before literally cringing at the thought of participating in mutual aid to any degree is honestly too perfect of a response.

        You seriously do not even fucking know what you think dude, maybe you shouldnt just wallow and at the very least try to learn how to exercise whatever power you do have to everyone else’s benefit.

          Who’s wallowing? All I’m saying is that I’m not going to consume media about Trump, because I didn’t want to anymore.

          You’ve yet to say anything of any substance. You pretty much said I should assassinate someone. Any other advice?

            "I’m so tired. Trump has done enough as to where everyone should hate him and somehow not enough people do. Why even report on him anymore? Why read about Trump anymore? Nothing surprises me. He’s going to do whatever he wants, and no one is going to stop him. "

            Literally you started this by declaring that not enough people are doing this and it’d be pointless to try anyway. You liberal doomers are the fuckin worse because you’re also too fucking emotionally repressed to even be open about it.

            Someone could fucking assassinate him, it would only take one persob and it would do a lot for all of us. You’re betting on it even, and expect the entire system to change now, all of the sudden, because it now makes you upset. Do you have any fucking clue how many people, how many generations of people have fought US imperialism from within the US? Oh does it bother you to never be able to escape information about how this system targets you? How could anyone else understand that feeling!?

            Get fucking real dude, if the most you can do is go “sing kumbaya” with your neighbours, you should he doing it then. How many people in your community even just need a ride to work, emotional support, groceries, do you know how to fix shit people need? Like, holy fuck how do you think it makes you sound superior to be such a selfish person? Youre despairing? Reach out to others like how the rest of us have had to do to help.

            They didn’t. They said someone close to him. You jumped from that to it being something personal for you to do.

            It’s a continuation of your doomerism. The task needs to be impossible so you can justify inaction.

            They then clarified that; for you personally doing something as simple as working with a mutual aid organization.

            But you’re doubling down on the misunderstanding. A misunderstanding that allows you to sit in doomerism and pretend that the only actions being advocated for are impossible ones.

            The point is: no, he is not some “all powerful force” that can’t be stopped. He’s a human that can be shot dead tomorrow. Because your original comment is acting like it’s time to ignore the news and close your eyes because “there is nothing I can do”.

            Go touch some grass and find a DSA or PSL meetup in your area. Just be around some people aren’t doomers. If you’re gonna stop doom scrolling that’s your best bet to not just isolating yourself in inaction.
