The Clown Show Is in Town: Small Crowds Gathered in Miami for Trump Arraignment

A low internal sense of self and a need to be wanted are what ties Trump & Trumpers together.

Outlandish costumes scream "Here I am, look at me" and Trump's penchant for grandiosity (ie inflating crowd size) lead me to believe -

These people were not shown love as children. The effects of this are seen in their actions as adults.

NEED ME...SEE ME!

Here's a link to a very interesting (and very long!) blog article about the history of Russian colonialism and imperialism.

https://damienmarieathope.com/2023/04/decolonize-russia-siberian-land-backrussian-conquest-of-siberia-and-the-spread-of-russian-imperialism-colonialism/

The key statement for me is this one:

“The Russian colonization of Siberia and conquest of its indigenous peoples has been compared to the European colonization of the Americas and its natives, with similar negative impacts on the natives and the appropriation of their land."

And then the author adds:

"I hate ALL imperialism: American imperialism and Russian imperialism.”

Me too!

For those of you, like me, watching America’s rapid descent into fascism in abject horror from the sidelines in Europe, remember: where America goes, the West soon follows. If we don’t like where that is, we must do better than doing the same things and hoping for different outcomes.

What I’m saying is America is a warning, not an instruction manual.

Um…the conspiracy theory that law enforcement as a whole is racist and hunts down black people literally sparked riots all across the #USA that have been going on for over a hundred days and led to fires, deaths, explosions and millions of dollars of property damage, not to mentioned shuttered businesses and destroyed economies.

That’s a textbook example of a left wing conspiracy theory that is mainstream and dangerous

"pulling out of the WHO at any time, but *especially* in the midst of a pandemic that's killed over 200k Americans and 1M people around the world, is one of the most ill-advised, dumbest things we could possibly do. And I mean that, f*cking literally."
