Trump has become schizophrenic again.

[–] [email protected] 101 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Trump has a lot that seems might be wrong with him, but schizophrenia never really seemed to be on the list. Narcissism, dementia, psycho-/socio-pathy, compulsive lying, and possibly more, but I've never gotten the feeling he displayed the hyperpatternicity I associate with schizophrenia.

Honestly he sounds like just about every old man I've ever met, rambling on about whatever nonsense is running through his head at any given moment.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

That’s unfortunate. Most octogenarians I’ve met are far more thoughtful and kind than Trump has ever been.

Sigh...at least Apple is getting screwed over though. They've been impeding right to repair for a long time, perhaps their karmic debt is finally catching up to them.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

nah they just need to survive the storm for a yeas and a half and start funding dems house races. far cheaper than allowing you to repair your device.

Its extremely funny seeing idiot Americans who voted (and those who didnt vote at all) for a 34 count rapist felon, seditionous traitor and then protest by holding little signs and wearing pink jackets.

You guys only use your 2nd amendment rights in schools against children. America is a circus and Americans are the clowns.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

The people who go out and protest are very likely people who voted, and not for him.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What you are doing is lumping 65% of the population that isn't like that with the 35% minority that is partially like that. Don't be ignorant.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Adding up the people who didn't vote to the people that voted for the orange one, it's more like 65% of USAmericans are like that

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I wish I could argue with this.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Hysst. Let me enjoy my schadenfreude till the stench reaches here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Better to laugh with its stupidity than to cry for it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It is kinda funny watching the American Exceptionalism finally crumble before our eyes. Shame most Americans aren't reflective enough to realise what's happening.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This 100%. You’re getting downvoted but I don’t think Americans realize how irritating their fellow countrymen can be on the internet and in person to non Americans. There’s also the defaultism as if everyone is American (or wants to be American) which gets REALLY tiring after a while

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

it effects the entire world pal, just cause its not visibly right outside your front door doesnt mean youre above it

also, being smug is a shitty look

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

are you going to keep laughing when he extorts another world leader of a country Russia is invading? Or helps finish off palestine for good?

Let's not armchair diagnose people, please.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think you suffer from anti armchair diagnosis.

This is the dumbest comment I've read all day but I've been chuckling about it for a good couple of minutes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Armchair Derangement Syndrome. It'll be in the DRM-3000, the biggest and best book by the bestest doctors who have spent decades researching the woke mind virus. It'll also cover things like "Fluoride Delusion Disorder" - the belief that fluoride in public water isn't a government brainwashing program.

It's always disappointing to see how much people on here hate people with mental disabilities. Under no circumstances would anyone be OK with comparing Donald Trump to another minority. I think even insulting him by calling him fat is perceived as too gauche. But ableism? 100% OK by most of Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

They don't hate people with disabilities, they just don't want them to be President.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That’s ableist though. Implies disabled people are inherently inferior if you don’t want them to be president.

Roosvelt was in a wheelchair much of his time and he did “fine”.

(Technically I’m against the idea of politicians at all so don’t feel like glorifying them).

We're not talking about "disabled people", we're talking about people with mental illness that impairs them.

Roosvelt was in a wheelchair much of his time and he did “fine”.

Physical disability is absolutely not be the same thing. Would you vote fuckin Ted Bundy for President?

Technically I’m against the idea of politicians at all

Okay so just complete anarchy then? Everyone for themselves?

Lol, is this your first time encountering an anarchist?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

No I'm just in complete shock that they exist every time. It's like coming across a flat-earther.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I feel the same way each time I come across a lib, so it's a mutual experience

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I had a co-worker who said he didn't want a woman to be president because "she'd start a war every month." I guess he's not really misogynist like I thought.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think most people on here are frustrated with the "sanewashing" by most media outlets.

The drumbeat of "ableism" is more of a bell ringing to make sure that people understand that Krasnov is very unwell and seriously unfit for any decision making position.

Wanting someone with disastrous mental health issues to not be capable of launching a nuclear strike isn't ableism.

Would you loan a gun to a friend who's been really depressed lately? According to you, you should.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Krasnov

Wat?

Wanting someone with disastrous mental health issues to not be capable of launching a nuclear strike isn’t ableism.

Oh, I forgot that Truman, the only person in history to actually use nuclear weapons, famously only did so because he had depression. Or he was a perfectly mentally well person who was also a racist to the extent that he didn't care about the lives of Japanese children. One of those. I always get it confused.

Anyway, the answer to who I would loan a gun to and who should be capable of launching a nuclear strike is the same: no one. But I would trust your averaged depressed person with the nuclear codes more than I would Trump. To be clear: if Trump has a mental illness, that is not the thing that is wrong with him. What's wrong with him is that he's a fascist.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Let's. And don't tell us what to do.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

I think I will. Thanks for your input though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You’re right. There’s absolutely no evidence of Trump being not of sound mind.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah I don’t like the sort of sanism it often implies.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Thank you for your attention to this matter
