This article was posted shortly before the election but everything in there is still true and seeing his appointees perhaps worse than predicted.

It is alarmists. Ill repost this in 4 years when he peacefully leaves office to laugh at u all. Btw does lemmy have a remindme bot or has it been banned like all the other usefull bots.
Ah yes peacefully leaves office, just like the first time.
Who’s “you all”? The people with whom you’ve been arguing will probably all have new user names by then.
Im sure they will. But when they read it they will be forced to admit that im right and thats gonna give them all sorts of self value issues.
Hush, you’re embarrassing yourself.
Is that good faith engagement or thinly veiled insult?
I’m not sure if it counts as good faith, but it’s sincere - you’re putting way too much energy into a debate about which failing state is failing with more grace. Yeah, Australia is doing better than the US, we’re speedrunning the fall of rome over here, but it’s important not to be so blinded by the spectacle of the US imploding that you lose sight of your own country being eroded out from under you.
They’ll defend their egos by finding some way in which they’re still right.
Yeah but i enjoy whatching them suffer though that proccess.
+1 for remind me bot
-1 for weimar republic level misinformation
Lemmy won’t be allowed in the new Republic, comrade.
They think they can stop it. Just like they can stop monero, piracy, and encryption?
Plus i dont live in the worlds richest 3rd world nation like u so ill be fine over here in australia with my socialised healthcare and gun free schools.
I guess I forgot to block you. What a surprise to read your nonsense this morning.
U having fun building ur little echo chamber. Dont let anyone challenge ur beliefs. It might shatter ur world view.
And your nanny state. Don’t think the rest of the world doesn’t know Aussies clutch pearls hard enough to crush them. Y’all are a stones throw away from Fascism, mates.
Still doing better than the US.
… Are you really, though? Meaningfully? It’s looking pretty damn bad for ya’ll, and you seem to have even less political will to fix it than we do. Not saying we’re not worse, but you guys are catching up fast.
Reasonable regulation is much further from fascism than what the diaper wearing clown who’s been elected president is gonna bring to bear.
Y’all don’t need any tariffs to make your electronics prices inflated beyond insanity, your backwards ass government already did it lmao.
Get fucking rekt. Like an Aussie has any right to say they’re better than the USA. Go find a Norwegian and you got a deal.
Just took that. Guess if it is from Australia or Scandinavia?
“Get rekt.”

Yeah, that invalidates your shit government, 🤣
Get rekt
Twice. Kek. Hey, insult all you want. I have a no-blocking policy. Mama raised me with a spine.
Got a bit ashamed by me pointing out your mistake?
You also can’t see a road. There is some paving, but none that’s broken. That’s two puddles and a patch of snow. So yeah, this isn’t Australia. It’s summer in Australia, and it’s not exactly known for snow in the winter either.
You proposed a deal. I’m Nordic. Do I have the right to act as if we’re better than the US, as you promised?
I haven’t attempted to insult you. I apologise for you thinking I did. Idk what you perceived as one?
We do have heigher taxes yes. But we also rate heigher on almost all the metrics. Statisticly im smarter than u, more educated than u, heather than u, taller than u, bigger dick than u, will live longer than u, will be happier than you, will be richer than you, have a hotter wife than u, have more sex than u will. Look man not all these are a result of our heigher taxes but it sure as shit helped. And at the end of the day i can become an immigrant and pay my way into ur corrupt system if ever im feeling like im missing out.
Man, that must have been one wild study…
You’re not wrong (well except about most of the actual things you asserted) but while retreating to some zany upside-down nationalism to defend your precariously teetering democracy might preserve your sense of superiority over the US, it’s pretty clearly blinding you to the realities of the situation you’re living in.
Go read a wikepedia ranking and try no to cry when u see ur ratings compared to the rest of the globe lol.
Definatly is a nanny state. They are coming for free speach and digital anonymity at the moment. But still isnt fascism yet.
? Trump literally runs his own mastodon. There will definitely be a place for Lemmy in the future. It’ll be an instance called TruthNews run by the
Ministry of Not Fake News
