@Hoss @NotAWeeb The Chinese girl getting in on it was impressive turnaround time. They see a market and they're undercutting the Wypipo in days, if not hours.

I feel like Tucker felt bad about holding off on talking about the fraud in 2020, and he's spent the time since going balls to the wall as an act of self-redemption.

@Ghislaine @SADIDAS Hapas being crazy is a forced meme by a bunch of Chinese incel redditors (not kidding, you can look it up. They spam it on r9k like a full time job, in hopes of "shifting the culture" or something.)
Elliot Roger and a few other famous examples are all half-Jewish. The ones not in that situation are broadly normal as far as I can tell. They're usually nerds (because both of their parents are usually nerds), but they're not crazy.

Ultimately I think that people will come around to my "lock the J Edgar Hoover building shut with the employees inside, cut off the water and power, and livestream the results until nobody's left" policy as the most reasonable solution.

@MechaSilvio > no actual news article
> literally just retarded conjecture
There's a substantial number of people who are very invested in things being hopeless and everyone trying to fix things being secretly a bad guy, because they've fucked up their lives beyond repair and they're too old, or too lazy, or too weak to fix it, and have to imagine that everyone else is screwed too or life would become too painful to them.
They're very useful to the FBI as both demoralizers and patsies, but they aren't really useful to anyone else.

@Jdogg247 It's wild how some dem PAC creates thousands of "totally real normie Republican voter" bot accounts with the exact same message and redditors eat it up.

@Hoss @Goalkeeper @Owl @justnormalkorean That's cost of doing business as any right-leaning commentator. His only real notability comes from telling Ben Shapiro to fuck off when he tried to acquire him, which was followed up with an attack campaign against him.
So, he's better than average, and has reason to (quietly) take issue with long nose tribe.

@Terry @randbot I bet that if you got the best of /pol/ in its prime together and explicitly told them to make up the most ridiculous Jewish conspiracy they could, it'd be proven incontrovertibly true within a decade.
"Jews did JFK" was something I hadn't even thought of as being a possibility.

@graf @grey It's wild that they won't just photograph their actual food. Maybe normies are a different species, and seeing arbitrary AI-generated slop appeals more to them than pictures of the actual food being sold.

@grey @graf IDK, man. A restaurant has a photo of every meal they make on the menu, the chef's going to be an old guy/lady who owns the place because cooking is their passion, takes the job seriously, authentic stuff at reasonable prices.
A restaurant has an AI-generated image of a hamburger on the menu, you're getting some yuppie who thought it would be fun/easy to own a restaurant, the chef is whatever illegal was the cheapest, you're getting bargain bin expired beef served on a plank of wood or something at 300 percent markup (including labor). If you're cutting corners on the food you only need to make one time for a photo that will advertise your business to every potential customer, you're definitely cutting corners on the food you need to make every day for one guy at a time.

@RandomITGuy @MCMLXVIIOTG @graf Okay, put very simply:
> Around a decade ago, a pro-Russian candidate won the Ukrainian election
> The U.S. did not like this, and it fomented a color revolution. There was no small amount of violence, and, eventually, a comedian who used to play a politician on TV became president. That's their current leader.
> The government proceeded to engage in overt acts of terror against the Russian-leaning eastern regions. Cutting off water and infrastructure, shellings, even.
> They were dehumanized in the media, to the point where regime-supporters sold food named after civilians and protestors that were burned to death, as a joke.
> Russia didn't like any of this, but their government is very wary of kicking off a war. There are allegations of material aid to the increasingly beaten-down eastern regions, but conflicts essentially amount to scattered militias of old men being hunted down by one of the largest and best-funded (courtesy of American taxpayers) militaries in Europe.
> Fast forward to 2020, there's talk of putting missiles in the Ukraine, and integrating it into NATO. There were treaties with Russia that forbid this, but the U.S. thinks they won't act on them. Russia, on the other hand, sees this as an existential threat - act now, or be slowly picked apart by people who will never negotiate in good faith.
> A quick invasion occurs. Russian forces deploy, there's a negotiation, and then they withdraw, content that they've established they aren't a paper tiger. Shortly thereafter, the Ukraine kills its own negotiator and claims the negotiation didn't happen. The conclusion most reasonable people reach is that the decision wasn't made anywhere in Eastern Europe.
> For the next several years, the Ukraine gets ground down by a better-prepared (and much larger) opponent. It is clear that this war was never to their benefit. A small (and increasingly smaller, gradually diminishing since 2021) group of deranged redditors insist that the Ukraine is winning. A more realistic, but much less sympathetic group of neocons acknowledge openly that its population is essentially being liquidated for the sake of trying to harm Russia.
As a brief aside, Zelensky is fully aware that the goofy Ukranian nationalism thing that was drummed up over the years is bunk. He didn't even speak "Ukrainian" when he ran for office, nor did a pretty big chunk of the population.
tl;dr: A pro-American president is elected in Canada. China stages what amounts to a coup, installs Jon Stewart as Canada's new PM, and has him use incendiary mortars on the American-sympathetic Albertans, to significant outrage in America. Stewart announces his intention to enter a military alliance with China and place nuclear missiles on the America-Canadian border. The U.S. invades to prevent this, and Stewart drafts every warm body he can find to delay the inevitable outcome. Despite a combination of military casualties and civilians fleeing the country halving Canada's population, China's domestic news sources insist that they will be taking D.C. any day now.

@Polfusilier @DailyStormerDigest North Korea isn't really anything-ist. There's a guy who's responsible for keeping the inhabitants in line, and he answers to a patron nation (Chyna). It's a colony.
It's like saying the Belgian Congo had an ideology.

@Polfusilier @DailyStormerDigest That's natural power dynamics. If I'm running a colony, then I have power and influence, and I can get away with pushing the boundaries a little bit to empower myself as long as I don't get to the point where it's worth replacing me.
On the flip side, if I don't do this, my power atrophies, and things that are mine are requisitioned and redistributed to ply the patron regime's more recalcitrant keys to power.

@Polfusilier @DailyStormerDigest > despite the protests of
Even in normie conception, the idea that Chyna's official statements are the same as its unofficial communications isn't believed.
Any case, it's the exact dynamic I described. A family of hereditary colonial governors has to walk a line between being complacent and having their power eroded and being overly aggressive and getting replaced. It's possible they might want to anchor their authority with nuclear weapons (and, of course, China's government would oppose this), and maybe they want to use this to become truly independent at some point. Maybe they have intentions regarding the North Korean people after this - to democratize, to implement Marxism, to imitate 1930's Germany, whatever - but I don't observe this in what they do now. Everything they do, more or less, is about either maximally suppressing internal threats to their power, threatening the West enough that they are unwilling to act to remove them (a legitimate concern), and playing aforementioned colonial governor versus patron power game with Chyna.
Like, with Russia, you can see a real ideology - overt cultural alignment, domestically and internationally, with nationalists, great-power-ists, and social conservatives, backed with economic and military measures to reshape the world in this image. You see the same pattern of behavior in microcosm by various leaders in Europe who are more favorable to them - Russian aligned polities with similar interests, but whose leaders are not part of Russian internal power dynamics.
Likewise, while I'm not an expert on Chyna, their whole deal seems to revolve around securing their race as a unified nation-state with with implicit shared interests, with those who defect against these interests punished quickly and effectively (I don't know that I'd call them NS, but I see why people do so). You could argue that Chyna isn't really ideological at all, on the basis that they don't try to spread this way of thinking, and it's ultimately how every healthy nation in history has ordered itself. That said, you do see the occasional American noting that the Chinese system works, and wanting to implement it here - there's a worldview guiding their policy that can be copied over elsewhere, and have sympathizers who are not Chinese.
Similarly, the U.S. State Department (as distinct from America as a whole, as we increasingly see) and its allies are united ideologically. A coalition of the weak, sick, and subversive, burrowed into a bureaucracy, backed by a horde of state-subsidized freaks, and justified morally around the idea that they'd starve to death if they were disallowed from parasitizing their betters, along with a might-makes-right style argument that their willingness and ability to manipulate bureaucratic procedures to advance themselves proves them worthy of power. Religion and popular culture are rewritten around that idea to the extent that they can rewrite it. There's a vision for the world, there, which it actively seeks to spread and implement even when it is not directly beneficial - there are true believers to what it really represents, if not to what it claims it represents.
There's no real ideological sphere that can be imagined around North Korea. A Russian sympathizer is a religious socially conservative nationalist who wants a world where competing great powers motivate each other towards greatness. A Chinese sympathizer wants to model his homeland after China to recreate the traditional nation state (but is probably ambivalent towards China itself, with no real mutual interest). A U.S. lib sympathizer wants a world of ever-escalating buggery enforced via Kafkaesque bureaucratic horror. All of these people can be from any country, and of any race - there's a shared idea being put forward. North Korea's foreign outreach revolves around old Soviet propaganda and aesthetics; there's no real message there.
