When you realize that our society, economy, nation, civilization, and species are currently unsustainable and are in a death spiral unless fundamental, systemic change happens in the next few years, politics looks very different—it’s literally our global survival that’s at stake.

With Iran threatening to target 18 technology companies for attack today, the odds of Trump using nuclear weapons against Iran just went up substantially. If Trump does nuke Iran, the potential consequences are so dire that the end of our civilization becomes a real likelihood.

Here is my terrifying thought at 2am: to avoid unsustainable narcissistic injury, eventually Trump will have to nuke Iran. We must oust him and his fascist regime now—before it’s too late.

As great as No Kings is, single days of protest will not oust the Trump regime: we need sustained, mass, civil disobedience every day for months that inflicts economic pain on Trump and the oligarchs, like a #GeneralStrike.

America will never recover from Trump and his fascist regime. Why? Because we allowed it to happen and we are still allowing it to happen. Why would any nation ever trust America or Americans again?

Wouldn’t it be wonderful and wonderfully ironic if Trump’s stupidity, mendacity, greed, and sadism inadvertently resulted in a massive global shift to renewable energy?

It’s terrifying that so few Americans understand that Trump and his fascist regime cannot be voted out of power—they have to be ousted. Trump’s regime has to be overthrown by sustained, mass, civil resistance. #GeneralStrike now.

Trump is burning down the world for fun and profit. He’s not just a con man, he’s a sadist too.

It’s good to see people in the US taking to the streets today. Silence is a friend of dictators.

@BraddrofliT @scott_squires The vote will either not happen or be compromised. The only way to stop them is at least 3.5% of the population engages in sustained, civil disobedience to oust Trump and his fascist regime. #GeneralStrike now.

By the time everyone agrees it’s authoritarianism, it’s already too late. It was built slowly while people argued, dismissed, and looked away. The only way to stop it is to vote. It’s your choice.

@HackingButLegal Yes, Trump and his oligarchic friends want to reduce the “surplus population” who aren’t rich, white, Christian, and MAGA—fucking fascists are horrible.

It’s absolutely clear that Trump is working to destroy NATO, the West, and the United States. Trump was installed by Putin and is doing his bidding. Trump was the “Manchurian Candidate” and is a traitor to America.

Jeff Bezos, worth $234 billion, plans to replace 600,000 Amazon workers with robots. Now, he wants to spend $100 billion to fully automate not just his warehouses, but factories in the U.S & other countries. Oligarchs are waging all out war against workers. FIGHT BACK.

If Trump’s real goal in invading Iran was to enrich oil companies and help Russia, he’s doing a hell of a job.

I don’t think enough people get this: oligarchs are going to automate most people out of a job and let them starve. Nothing short of a revolution demanding that all people share in the productivity gains of AI and automation will save billions of us from death. It’s that dire.

It really seems like Trump is doing the job Putin installed him to do: destroy the American Empire. The destruction Trump is perpetrating is not something America comes back from. No other country will trust us for generations—and they shouldn’t. We allowed this all to happen.

The “American experiment” doesn’t mean what is used to. Now it means testing what happens when you give a senile sociopath nuclear weapons.

For those of you that understand the “Great Filter” hypothesis as a solution to the Fermi Paradox, it sure feels like we are running headlong into a Great Filter right now…

@Ausloescher That would be a better outcome than Trump nuking Iran. If Trump uses even “tactical” nuclear weapons in Iran that changes the risk for Ukraine tremendously and it inspires the Iranians to launch various horrific attacks inside the United States. 50/50 odds of Trump nuking Iran…

Trump is fascinated by nuclear weapons. When the quagmire of the illegal Iran War gets too much for Trump, he will have two options: 1) Declare victory and walk away, OR 2) Nuke Iran. Which will Trump choose?
