Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Defund Conservative Inc. is the solution then. Also start creating institutions and work in groups.

It's a long-game play but the left did their long march through the institutions and there's absolutely nothing stopping the right doing the same thing. It'll be harder, because naturally they're wise to it, but it could be done (it won't be though).

I don't understand the 15% "global tax" racket, erm, I mean policy. So you tax Alphabet 15% globally? What are they getting taxed on, how is this determined, and more importantly who is laughing all the way to the bank counting the money? For that matter, who is collecting and using this "global tax money?"

Will there be a new "international tax authority" that is formed?

It's not a "global tax". The G7 members have agreed to apply a minimum 15% corporation tax in their own jurisdictions. The idea is to prevent countries like Ireland attracting big companies to headquarter there with low taxes, by setting a minimum taxation floor.

The only way it can be enforced in other countries is with diplomatic pressure. I imagine it won't do much other than encourage Google and co to headquarter somewhere else.

LOL at the irony of the president from fucking Delaware complaining about tax loopholes.

If they don't strictly enforce this on every country through trade embargoes or some shit, this is gonna be pointless. All it takes is one 3rd world shithole offering 5% and they're gonna be flooded by big business. Not to mention the fact that fucking China is gonna be exempt from this, fucking pointless. What is with the west and constantly hamstringing themselves with all these rules while China gets to walk all over them? Do they want to lose?

Conservatives need to find their own way to counter the corporate media narrative, and they were asleep at the switch on social media so they need to find something else.

Yes. It's called not stabbing their people in the back.

All the corporate media shit in the world did nothing to Trump. He got cheated out of his Presidency by his own Party. And as a result his Party lost the Senate and probably the House as well.

Those western counties need to take West Virginia up on their offer. How did eastern Oregon counties get started on their equivalent already without Idaho saying anything, while West Virginia said to come on over a year ago and they still haven't done anything?

China's got two million spies in governments, universities, and other institutions in the west. Oh, and the western governments are all run by assholes who are power and money hungry, and all China has to do is flash some money their way and they'll destroy their home nations to get it.

Ahem. What I wanted to say was "What a completely unexpected and surprising development, President Biden, please carry on building America back better."

They already have lost. A lot of people underestimate just how much the US and West by extension is in bed with the Beijing, this isn't the Cold War and China isn't the USSR. No amount of trade embargoes or sanctions is going to put this genie back in the bottle.
 
Nani the fuck is this? I'm getting a cramp from the cringe. They make Joe look like a more-dapper Jim Lahey (which he would be without his hair plugs).

That's not true. They hate those of us who think for ourselves more than white people. We don't even have to vote republican, just suggest the Democrats aren't any better, and we are declared heretics.

It is why they flip the fuck out at the mere notion of horseshoe theory and ban any discussion of it. Because they know deep down that they're rationalizing and justifying behavior that is as bigoted and racist as anything out there.

For your own good.

And it's why they invented the term "bothsidesism". The mere existence of opinions contrary to their own, to them, like dividing by zero or making eye contact with Cthulhu.

Also Pew is making up some shit too.

U.S. image among European, Asian partners improves under Biden

The United States' image abroad has improved dramatically since Joe Biden replaced Donald Trump as president, according to a Pew Research Center survey of 12 nations, mainly in Europe and Asia, that was released on Thursday.

So you're telling me that when the media, industry and politicians are lying about and smearing the President, calling him and his supporters Nazis, refuse to release any positive coverage, are subverting the national and state governments to manufacture problems to complain about and do so for five years straight, people have a bad image of him and the country?

And then when their scheming to manipulate public opinion works and they get their chosen candidate into office, then immediately stop all bad press and pretend everything is perfect, that people have a good opinion of him and his country?

Amazing!

The worst part is that this whitewashing of a person's record in either way prevents critical analysis of what they've done. You can't properly criticize actual bad things that Trump did because of the poisoned nature of the discourse around him. And you can't examine good things that Biden did for much the same reason.

In summary: melt the media and the FBI in their cars and in their homes.

I wonder if that’s not the goal. I can only imagine Estonia and Vietnam are salivating over bills like that. Gotta spread the wealth around, ya know?
