REDISTRICT EVERYTHING

ESCALATE TO DE-ESCALATE

GERRYMANDER EVERY SINGLE STATE IMMEDIATELY

CREATE A DELICATE BALANCE OF TERROR NOW

RESTORE DETTERENCE

This is heartening to me because when the Dems come back into office, they're going to need to do a lot of things which aren't 'kitchen table issues' - accountability for corruption, reestablishing the bureaucracy, etc. - but are democracy issues.

Evelyn Normielib is here and she is politely voting to gerrymander your ass into irrelevance

Conservatives very specifically endorse a version of medical freedom which includes vaccine refusal but excludes choosing to take cross-sex hormones

Congratulations to the Jungle Primary, for somehow inventing an alternative to First Past the Post with a WORSE strategic voting problem

User dratsab huffman asks the question: To amuse myself i researched revacholian nationalism as well as measure head's race theories etc etc and focused my character on "traditionalism". Anyway, ive noticed that if i ever click dialogue options that are in tune with my character's political compass, i lose morale. Whats the point of having this as a mechanic if its going to be so detrimental and feels like the character doesnt believe he actually is this or something... is there anyway to overcome that kind of morale loss?

Recalcitrant Jester replies: Being a fascist is a deeply demoralizing experience. You have to not only radically alter your worldview to make reality fit into your unhinged schema, but that worldview is predicated on the notion that the weakest, most unworthy degenerate worms on the planet are somehow overpowering and humiliating you on a moment-by-moment basis. In mechanical terms too, the lowered morale also reduces your volition score—the more you indulge in your delusions, the less you are able to exercise self-control and self-awareness. The point of fascism being mechanically detrimental—the ludonarrative theme—is that fascism is an unequivocally self-destructive ideology, the practice of which only serves to nurture that self-destructive urge and turn it outward. It's not like Dark Side points in KotOR where you can access cool new abilities and get to enjoy being such a nasty lil rascal; you are not supposed to enjoy being a fascist in Disco Elysium. Fascism is the act of self-deception in service of making your own life more painful, solely for the payoff of making life more painful for people you dislike.

"Facism is the act of self-deception in service of making your own life more painful, solely for the payoff of making life more painful for people you dislike."

Given past performance it's not unreasonable for them to assume an asymmetry of consequences where natsec dems do jack and shit even if karp writes a letter calling for their execution as traitors and lonsdale promises to pull the trigger himself

Something to consider. That most of what we consider "success" has come with hidden costs that far outweigh the relatively short-term benefits. In a sense, we are placing a bet on solar to help us survive without actually making the foundational changes in *thought* and *approach* needed.

the best-case scenario future of the United States is that Donald Trump goes down in history as "Fascist Jimmy Carter".

Around 20% of hospital beds in the US are in Christianist facilities, most Catholic, that have happily been denying reproductive health care and gender-affirming care for decades AND enjoying a nonprofit status. Most people don't realize the stranglehold the church has until it's too late.

The thing that annoys me the most is they will argue this devoid of any actual context. The anti-trans side spent years making bomb threats against children's hospitals, gay bars, and LGBTQ community centers. They call LGBTQ people groomers and pedophiles. They mocked trans teen's suicides.

80% of democrats don't like Israel. It's not even an age thing like it is for republicans. the case for any kind of pragmatic pro Israel centrism is just totally buried

And here's a big difference between 2003 and today. IC not on board.

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?

the voices are saying "Pretty fuckin' bad" and offering a grim, chilling laugh that sort of trails into the abyss

So, uh, how bad do we expect today's atrocities to get?

5/ The final point is that I think it's arguable that Israel's arguments played a more important role getting Trump into this. But it's the Gulf princes who are more key to keeping him in. They're right there. Israel might be okay with a failed state Iran. The Saudis and the Gulf princes would not.

He's been praising God a lot more in general and I guess this is one step beyond that

Apart from the profanity and planning to do some war crimes (civilian power plants are not generally valid military targets), if you had told folks that the President would be posting 'Praise be to Allah' on Easter Sunday, they'd assume we'd lost a war.

And be right, I guess.

I can excuse concentration camps, but I draw the line at an F-bomb

I remember when zoomers got ahold of bin ladens manifesto and were like “he’s making so much sense” and that was idiotic but I was disappointed nobody spread what his strategic goals were. It is embarrassing how fully we did what he wanted us to. We’re still doing what he wanted us to 30 years later

American religiosity has been in decline for some time, but the way some performatively religious people have accepted Trump will accelerate that decline significantly. It’s a mortal wound to the credibility of American evangelism.
