I can't believe you all are serious writing this stuff. America will move on after trump. America is going to be fine - as such as it is -. Likewise, everyone is going to be fine. Life in going to carry on.
I get the German doesn't understand, but come on, man. Ain't going to be no Trump dictator. So much bs fear is being pushed. Resist it.
Well you've already lost that bet, because he self-identifies as a dictator and Republicans submitted a constitutional amendment to remove the two-term limit the day after he was confirmed.
Ok. But no, because that won't happen. No one's buying that. The real trumpsters i suppose love it, but it won't fly with Republicans at large id wager. Im not into starting that. And that's a far cry from trying to become a dictator anyway. You need to understand i didn't vote red or blue. I think we need to fight the hole system, not each other.
"Rome was destroyed, Greece was destroyed, Persia was destroyed, Spain was destroyed.

It’s already very much not “fine.” I could write you an essay but you don’t seem the type to argue in good faith. Want a small example? I’m Canadian. Never seen an ally turn so fast, nor seen such a high level of anti-American sentiment in my life. From trusting and supportive to disgusted - not just as the fascist wannabe government - but at Americans themselves for their pseudo-exceptionalism, pig-headed displays of lack of intellect.
You might not recognize it, or care - but there’s been a huge shift and it’s happened almost overnight.
Pleasing raise your awareness on this, or just don't derive what you know from msm. The big shift that happened was perspectives. I love my northern socialist kid brother of a country. Please don't write an essay, but give me 1 thing.
How do you "move on" from knowing my neighbors are nazi fascists? How do I just ignore the fact they voted to destroy families of people they dont like, dehumanizing them and laughing at it when people fall apart?
You don't get to pretend you voted for a fascist party and aren't a fascist yourself. We all know that if there is a Trump replacement when he dies these same people will want a new hate party leader in office. If you think we are just going to move in maybe ask the Germans how painful the transition of the 20 years post WW2 was for them. That's what is in store for the US if things don't change now.
I mean you have had more constitutional crises each month since Trump’s inauguration than you had in a full presidential term before that.
The massive power grab the executive is performing is one thing, but that the president at the same time cannot be trusted to comply with court orders and openly goes after critics and his opposition.
What would you call a ruler that cannot be prosecuted for anything they do, weaponizes the courts against dissenting voices, turns their back on allies in favor of dictators, and whose closest allies break laws regulating them weekly without consequences? This is the reality currently. All that really differentiates him from a clear dictator is also breaking the law on term limits, not leaving office when required as he already tried and failed in his first term.
The police will shoot you, maybe burn your house or neighborhood down, steal everything you own, Lock you up without charges, and then if you can ever afford a lawyer to sue them you might get out of jail only to find the burned-out hole in the ground you used to live in was sold to a property developer and none of the money found its way to you.
You also owe tens of thousands of dollars in back taxes on the burned down house for the time you were in jail, but all of the money for selling the house was given to some scam artist who knew you wouldn't be able to stop them.
You can't afford to go to the doctor, but a third of your income is spent on health insurance. It takes 2 hours of work to afford a dozen eggs. You no longer have a car because they towed it from your driveway while you were locked up and you can't even afford to get it out of impound despite the fact that every day the cost of storing the vehicle goes up by more than you earn.
This country is a fucking nightmare for so many people.
Btw, I got this simply from searching “Biden truck decal”. I got no negative top results searching Trump instead of Biden. In fact, this is the best one I got from adding anti- in front of Trump in the search (with relevant double-standard caption included):
So I just googled "anti-trump car decals" and was given a link to buy anti-maga stickers on Amazon, and when I went to images I got to see some decent ones. But then I saw an article with the same truck in your second picture, stating the driver added another sticker to the back windshield saying "FUCK LOCAL SHERIFF'S NAME AND FUCK YOU FOR VOTING FOR HIM"
But then I saw an article with the same truck in your second picture, stating the driver added another sticker to the back windshield saying "FUCK LOCAL SHERIFF'S NAME AND FUCK YOU FOR VOTING FOR HIM"
Last month, Elon Musk revived the term and told Fox News host Sean Hannity he used to be “adored by the left” until they were infected with TDS.
From what I remember, it had nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with you calling the experts who successfully rescued a bunch of children trapped in a cave, “pedo guy” along with all your other aggressive tactics to silence critics. Followed by the Twitter purchase.
All of that? That's the point. That's exactly how they want us to feel: confused, hurt, isolated. They will gladly say something incredibly hypocritical and then just smile a shit-eating grin when you call them out, because we both know there's nothing that can be done short of violence and that's when they've "won."
But in all honesty, violence actually is an answer, and a proper one to bullshit like this. I don't give a fuck if you could call it assault if someone is literally taunting and threatening me when I haul off and beat their ass.
Do it. Make them scared of violent revolution and reprisals.
The smug childishness of a grade school bully who got you in trouble after you lost your shit and finally punched back. These assclowns are infuriating.
Guys, just steal this and use it to describe deranged Trump idiots. The right wing steals useful words like "fake news" and "groomer" and alters their meanings for political purposes all of the time. This one should be a layup because without reading into it everyone already thinks it's the condition those everyday July 4th cosplay, big truck with tattered flags morons have.
When I first heard of TDS I thought it was about his deranged stans and I thought that made sense.
Then I was told it was about all the people who lost their minds because of his election and defined themselves purely oppositionally to him, and I thought that made sense.
Then I observed that it's really just used as a slur against anyone who doesn't like him or his policies, and that makes sense too because that's the ultimate death of every social critique that ends up promulgated by conservatives.
I love how far I had to read before it was clear that it's not what Trump has; it's what people who disagree with him apparently have.
Diseases are often named after their victims...
Also, and this is buried in everything he is doing, but how arrogant do you have to be to assume that every person disagrees with him just because he's Donald Trump, and not because there are valid concerns?
Nah they know about it, let no conservative tell you their Christian. To be Christian is to aspire to be like Christ, very few self proclaimed Christiana can claim that
They only read the clobber verses about killing gay men, and the shitty bits of Paul (much of which wasn’t even written by Paul).
You can tell they don’t even read the Sodom and Gomorrah stuff, because they don’t know about Lot’s daughters getting their dad drunk to rape him, which is like immediately after.
Not him, but a bunch of other people on his political party.
It does feel a little like an attempt to legitimise it, so that criticisms are flipped off as mental illness, and/or an opportunity for institutionalising/excluding political opponents for much the same reason.
This is their attempt to get around that pesky 1st amendment. Make criticism of the king a "mental disorder", and then you can lock them up involuntarily "for their own protection".
It’s another “every accusation is a confession” - he’s accusing people who hate him of having this, but really it’s the ones who are obsessed with loving him that are deranged.
The best thing about someone using the term Trump derangement syndrome unironically is that I know I can just ignore them and nothing of value will be lost.
probably worth noting that their Governor is Tim Walz, the VP candidate from the last election. One of the few Democratic Party members who is in the news constantly for criticism of the current President.
Not that this has a chance to pass because the DFL controls the State Senate and the Governors office, but I be its a political ploy so they can say then need to remove Walz because he is mentally unsound.
Psychology and psychiatry as professions unfortunately include people who believe that any deviation from what they personally consider “normal” is illness. There’s a very strong influence from shitstains like Dr Laura and Dr Phil on practitioners, and there are definitely some who’d like to punish political beliefs they disagree with.
I wonder if those who believe in TDS would also believe in Trudeau Derangement Syndrome where one feels compelled to put “F🍁CK TRUDEAU” flags on everything. Realistically these people probably know nothing about Canadian politics though
Trump Derangement Syndrome sounds like it's named after an ailment Trump suffers from, just like how Lou Gehrig's Disease is named after the disease that Lou Gehrig had.
If you only care when Trump does it, it’s Trump derangement syndrome. Biden pushed forward with many of Trump’s worst policies, and Democrats didn’t have shit to say about it then.
Exactly. Neoliberals do not oppose Trump policies, but his lack of decorum. Which is why they had no problem with Obama and Biden quietly progressing fascism. They don’t like that he says the quiet part out loud, and gives away the game.
The Democrats didn’t but the base was sure pissed about it. That party is constantly under fire from its own base because of how much they rely on being the only option that isn’t full-blown insane-o fascism. The country at its core is broken and in a way that constantly reinforces itself. I do not envy the people who have to put the work in to fix it.
The Democrats are also full-blown insano fascist. It’s the same party pretending to be two. That’s why they’re both backing this genocide. That’s why the Democrats always manage to produce enough votes to help the GOP secure their votes. It’s why the Democrats sue anyone farther left off the ballots.
For sure, but the country has no other options. It’s like asking someone if they would prefer to be punched or stabbed and then claiming they enjoy the punching. You didn’t have “get a hug” as an option so stop acting like it’s there.
That’s not what I said, but ai don’t know if what I say really matters to you more than acting smug does. Also, I live in a country with more than two parties and I do not participate in “strategic voting”.
Politics is not about rational decision making as studies have shown. However most people think that they are completely logical with there political views. In reality they decide on a view and then find evidence to support it. It also doesn't help that the "news" these days is mostly a propaganda outlet whatever party they support.
I disagree with the idea that Biden is just as bad as Trump. Biden barely did anything in office. Trump is going full swing to push forward his policies. At least he has balls. (That may be one of his best qualities honestly)
Disagreeing with someone destroying the economy, spending trillions of tax payer dollars, and making enemies of our allies is a mental disorder? But wasting time making bullshit bills like adding to my Rushmore when it's physically impossible is normal behavior. Got it
I saw it in leftist circles long before I saw conservatives using it. Same for the Blue MAGA label. They’re born from leftist criticism of neoliberals & conservatives being two sides of the same coin, and the terms have been co-opted by Red MAGA to a degree.
The origin of the term is traced to Charles Krauthammer, a conservative political columnist, commentator, and psychiatrist, who coined the phrase Bush derangement syndrome in 2003 during the presidency of George W. Bush. That "syndrome" was defined by Krauthammer as "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency—nay—the very existence of George W. Bush".[9][10][11][12] The first use of the term Trump derangement syndrome may have been by Esther Goldberg in an August 2015 op-ed in The American Spectator; she applied the term to "Ruling Class Republicans" who are dismissive or contemptuous of Trump.[13] Krauthammer, in an op-ed commented that—in addition to general hysteria about Trump—the "Trump Derangement Syndrome" was the "inability to distinguish between legitimate policy differences and ... signs of psychic pathology".[12]

It’s another “every accusation is a confession” - he’s accusing people who hate him of having this, but really it’s the ones who are obsessed with loving him that are deranged.

The best thing about someone using the term Trump derangement syndrome unironically is that I know I can just ignore them and nothing of value will be lost.

Michigan Republicans
probably worth noting that their Governor is Tim Walz, the VP candidate from the last election. One of the few Democratic Party members who is in the news constantly for criticism of the current President.
Not that this has a chance to pass because the DFL controls the State Senate and the Governors office, but I be its a political ploy so they can say then need to remove Walz because he is mentally unsound.

Psychology and psychiatry as professions unfortunately include people who believe that any deviation from what they personally consider “normal” is illness. There’s a very strong influence from shitstains like Dr Laura and Dr Phil on practitioners, and there are definitely some who’d like to punish political beliefs they disagree with.

If you only care when Trump does it, it’s Trump derangement syndrome. Biden pushed forward with many of Trump’s worst policies, and Democrats didn’t have shit to say about it then.

Exactly. Neoliberals do not oppose Trump policies, but his lack of decorum. Which is why they had no problem with Obama and Biden quietly progressing fascism. They don’t like that he says the quiet part out loud, and gives away the game.

The Democrats didn’t but the base was sure pissed about it. That party is constantly under fire from its own base because of how much they rely on being the only option that isn’t full-blown insane-o fascism. The country at its core is broken and in a way that constantly reinforces itself. I do not envy the people who have to put the work in to fix it.
surph_ninja@lemmy.world · -9 pts · 1y
The Democrats are also full-blown insano fascist. It’s the same party pretending to be two. That’s why they’re both backing this genocide. That’s why the Democrats always manage to produce enough votes to help the GOP secure their votes. It’s why the Democrats sue anyone farther left off the ballots.

For sure, but the country has no other options. It’s like asking someone if they would prefer to be punched or stabbed and then claiming they enjoy the punching. You didn’t have “get a hug” as an option so stop acting like it’s there.

Politics is not about rational decision making as studies have shown. However most people think that they are completely logical with there political views. In reality they decide on a view and then find evidence to support it. It also doesn't help that the "news" these days is mostly a propaganda outlet whatever party they support.
I disagree with the idea that Biden is just as bad as Trump. Biden barely did anything in office. Trump is going full swing to push forward his policies. At least he has balls. (That may be one of his best qualities honestly)
