It's a "cautionary tale", Mother. The Superior Man, he upon the "narrow road".

Loves adversity. If he is given lemons, he makes a tasty lemonade.

If he is given a spear-chucking son-in-law, he fattens him up for the pot.

Read your Marcus Aurelius.

Yeah I think so.

Trump , like myself, understood that the current world order was dysfunctional.
The entire world was becoming entitled.
People thought they had the right to an easy entitled life.....because , because, well just because.

As a keen student of mother nature ( I see mother nature as an alternative title for god) , nothing could be further from the truth.

Mother nature abhors a take
She abhors a victim
She has no place for entitlement.
She looks at organisms that take and are looking for comfort and pleasure  and she sees them as a virus on the delicate system she has created.

I drive into a city and I see nothing but self indulged , entitled, soft , weak , non contributing parasites on mother nature and I think.....that way of being is doomed .

Trump is a catalyst for this paradigm shift.
The end for learned helplessness and the beginning for the resilient adventurous brave human entity.

When AI is 1 million times smarter in 3 years, why would this superior intelligence keep some fat unemployed soft useless human around.
It makes no sense.

Mother nature is the evolutionary blowtorch.
Donny has sparked this blowtorch into actions.

Time to shape up or ship out

Scoot, this is a pretty revealing pivot.

When a Democrat is in the White House, every metric suddenly matters. Jobs numbers, oil prices, fuel security, inflation, GDP, supply chains. If any of those move in the wrong direction, it's presented as proof the administration is incompetent and destroying the country.

But now that Donald Trump is the one presiding over instability, the argument flips overnight. Suddenly collapsing supply chains, banking stress, energy shocks and food distribution failures aren't signs of failed governance, they're supposedly the thrilling prelude to some romantic frontier reboot.

That's not a coherent framework, it's just moving the goalposts.

For years we were told the president is responsible for fuel prices, economic stability and jobs numbers when discussing Barack Obama or Joe Biden. Bad numbers meant bad leadership. Simple as that. Now the same kinds of failures are being reframed as "creative destruction" and a cleansing collapse that will sort the strong from the weak.

The fantasy here is pretty obvious. A post-apocalyptic America where the cities collapse, the elites disappear, and rugged rural survivalists stride out of the ashes to rebuild civilisation with rifles, livestock and frontier grit. It reads less like political analysis and more like the plot of a survivalist novel.

The problem is that this vision conveniently ignores how the real world works. Modern agriculture runs on fertiliser supply chains, diesel, spare parts, veterinary medicine, irrigation systems and global commodity markets. The same logistics networks that keep cities fed are the ones that keep farms operating. If the banking system collapses, the fuel distribution network fails and food logistics break down, rural America doesn't become a frontier paradise, it becomes just as dependent on systems that no longer function.

Which brings us back to the contradiction. If economic indicators collapsing under a Democrat prove catastrophic mismanagement, then the same outcomes under Trump don't suddenly become heroic signs of a necessary civilisational purge. Either those indicators matter or they don't.

You can argue that the system is broken and needs reform. Plenty of people across the political spectrum think that. But celebrating systemic collapse simply because it's happening on your team's watch isn't analysis, it's rationalisation dressed up as apocalypse cosplay.

Your desperation to support Trump is all you appear to have left.

Oh? Donnie's the biggest grifter on the planet. He's now four thousand mil richer. He's cashed up with personal bribes from all those Gulf oil sheikhs, but guess what?

They now hate the man. DL's just reneged on every promise he made. He's blown their chances of economic growth. The oil wells are now shut down, the tourists are gone, the airports closed. They can't even get a ship out of their own Gulf.

Forget the Iranians, MBS is planning to send the bone-saw boys round to take out DL himself.

And there you are, running out of diesel for the tractor, no fertiliser for the crops. Sure, you've still got those solar panels you bought for the rebates, but you never bothered to plug them in, so you're stuck bitching about your electricity bills.

You have nothing in common with the Don. I doubt he's paid a bill in his life. That silver spoon he's used fits perfectly in your bottom, there's even room to stir.

A good thing too - you've banned Mrs Scoot from using the Mixmaster to keep the bills down.

BUTTHURT !!!
