answers t o questions about Trump policies are exactly on topic of thread.
and that is the problem, the USA and it’s enemies of liberty who voted for him ( Fascist Don)will pay the price like true Americans will, a Christofascist dictatorship, while all you supporters of fascism cheer from abroad, and strive to bring down Democracy around the world. The greed of man will destroy the world, it(the world) will be / is doomed forever to war, the greed of the weakminded in the name of a man invented concept.
hopefully not forever, hopefully there will be an election in four years

Not climate change then senile?I think most of the woke lefties and those that bury their heads in the sand and just swallow anything the media and establishment put out… would give you an argument…
OGF the 2 are connected. Not because of the climate argument which is a compete and unnecessary diversion, but destruction of ecology and animal habitats. The whole climate obsession is leading us to destroy more of earth’s resources for lithium etc. Conservation should be the focus. Pesticides, rainforest destruction, palm oil growth for things we don’t need etc will be the things that bite us on the you know what. Upset the cycle of pollination and ecological balance and you kill our future.
Net zero is a con, because to get to net you can put in as much damage as you want. We can’t control the climate but we can fix ecological balance.
As I said, this topic is one rabbit hole for which many threads have been created in the past.

And yet, history has/ is constantly proving my point. Ohhh, there will be an election in 4 years, though it may take armed conflict to bring it about.
I would say climate change is a result of the greed of man
and the things Annie mentioned as well.
Both are concerns - neither of which Trump is likely to address.

…and you do not think climate change is the result of man’s greed ? The two are intertwined.

Then in summation, you are suggesting we (humans ) are not as smart and / or advanced as we think we are (correct to an extent). We make life better for ourseles , for a time and a few, but eventually it’s survival of the fittest (wealthiest), and this is only til we destroy everything through war and/ or our eco destroying policies. Lets hope the next species to inhabit earth will learn from our failures, but then again, intelligence / larger brains have only served our species to create / invent more ways to feed our greed.
It’s funny, because those who do not support Trump and / or have just left the GOP were also considered traitors. You hear Republicans speaking of uniting the US while simultaneously seeking political revenge, thus creating a deeper divide. The GOP and their Christofascist following have worked vigorously to crush women’s rights of abortion and and force censorship on our libraries / schools, and promoting religious schools (undermining public education), their goal is to brainwash our youth, creating a society of religious puppets without the ability to think, no different from Iran or any religious State.
We are victims of our own nature, which we cannot escape. As a group we are a bit like dinosaurs in the thinking department. By the time the head moves the tail we will have been eaten.

Then no matter how we have evolved and grown intellectually, we are doomed by our natural instincts, no more than the creatures of the forest, and greed is one of the basic instincts of survival. Your point is very interesting. You see I’ve always felt that Man’s (the species) survival, based on his intellectuality and resulting technology, gave the human race an ace card in the game survival, even his reaching out and developing other planets suitable for Man’s survival. Your suggestion means man cannot / will overcome his most basic survival instinct, greed, and he hasn’t since he first appeared.

Humanity can only progress if we recognise our limitations. I think in the past this must have happened following various crises. When the madness of a crisis ends there is a moment of clarity and insight, but then complacency brings us back to the mindless distraction and egoism.

Traitor Fascist Donald Trump( and his supporters) the enemies of Democracy, and the American way of life. Trump’s aim is to become dictator and ruler .of what he aims to become Christofascist America. The world is witnessing the downfall of a once great nation.
We shall see, I never a fan of Trump but that series brings up details that the rest of the world was probably unaware of, I mean the media only gives the bare details if it reports on the USA at all, I suspect most of our knowledge comes from watching popular TV shows.
Politics is not talked about as much in Australia as it appears to be in other countries.

His intentions were always made public in his speeches, he never hid it. Trump went so far as to say if Christian women voted for him 2024, they would not have to vote again. You just look at the people he is picking to serve under him, he has never lied about his intentions. I’ve have said this once, and I will repeat this, those who voted for him will not in later years be able to say “they didn’t know”, Trump has always voiced his intentions, one of the few things he never lied about, and on top of his plans will be out to seek political vengeance.
