We'll defeat them all!
I feel there's a little bit of wishcasting going on here. How much has the media narrative been slipping away? Sadly it looks like Trump's polling has made somewhat of a recovery although part of that could be due to partisan pollsters responding to Trump's accusations that other polls are "fake". This means we need to fight harder and keep doing the work so his polls go down. Conservatives are still stuck in an echo chamber. We need to get them out of it. I think the best way to do it so take away the fuel/money that powers the propaganda machines rather than trying to reason with individual people.
Also as for wondering about the next crazy thing he'll do I don't think much about this much because it I think it might help keep us in a cycle of trauma. I'd really recommend reading this article "I’m A Psychologist Who Specializes In Narcissists. Here’s What We Need To Do To Stop Trump.". I personally just focus on what I can be doing each day to make a difference and hopefully use my voice to make other people feel empowered and realize they too have a lot of power to make things better just by using their voices and contacting a few people and doing things like that.
Twitter could be used as a weapon against Canada to promote destabilizing political movements such as the Alberta separatists mentioned in the article. I'd go as far as to say that Twitter under Elon Musk functions effectively as an extension or an arm of the Trump regime. No one should be using Twitter, especially those in other countries who are at risk of foreign influence from the Trump regime.
That's why I'm calling on Canadians to boycott Twitter and urge institutions, business, universities, sports teams and celebrities to switch to Bluesky. Most websites have an about or contact-us section. Use that and urge them to boycott Twitter.
I totally get what you mean! The most important thing is to call, no worry about the words you will use.
Reminds me of this far-right antivaxer who suggested being exposed to a weakened version of the virus to build immunity instead of vaccines.

The so-called "big beautiful bill" contains a provision to significantly undermine the court system. I posted this article to "Politics" and wrote about how you can fight back against Trump's court-baiting. See here: https://lemm.ee/post/64983181 or click on the cross-posted to link to read more.
And what's the deal with airplane food?
I think it could be called urine (only one letter different from uline).
On the post on Bluesky that I linked to he shows the numbers with screenshots. OK it's not literally half when I checked the math but it's super close.
238.38 (cost of buying the materials from Uline) / 120.32 (cost of buying the same/similar materials from EcoEnclose) = ~1.9812
See some say despising Kid Rock is statutory but I say it's mandatory.

If for some reason you or anyone you know is still using Twitter now is the time to take advantage of the outage and urge people to leave Twitter permanently. Tell your friends about alternatives to Twitter such as Bluesky and Mastodon.
