Trump is talking to Putin about ending the Ukraine war--which has been a testing ground for Thiel's Palantir (and other) new technologies.

Trump/Vance are Theil bros (at least Vance is) so, if "peace" happens, that just means the tests are over, or Zelensky has outworn his welcome. But they (Conservative, Inc. ®) will spin it like Trump is this great peacemaker.

The clot shots were pushed under Trump. The 'vaccine passports' and CBDCs were just barely held at bay. What better way to get those most likely to resist surveillance to accept it than by getting their own 'but-he-ended-DEI!' "hero" to bring it in?

I have to wonder: was all the wokeness we just went through the 'problem' and the 'red wave' the 'reaction' and the Trump-Vance-Thiel win the 'solution' all along? The more Leftward they pushed everything, the more acceptable Trump appears by comparison.

Either way, it seems apparent to me that the 'Right' is being played like a fiddle.

Don’t know about the palantir Ukraine part, but otherwise share same feeling

it's all so...plastic, right? so...Vegas

Some of the sentiment shift feels real, but feels suspect at same time, is kind of where I’m at. I think about things like the time Elon tweeted “should I sell 10B of Tesla? Yes or no.” Isn’t that so cool bro? Meanwhile he dumps a ton of shares for his own personal premeditated reasons. Get similar feeling with DOGE. Just came up as passing “joke” in convo with trump and went to this big a thing organically since? 🤔

Think I’m a bit more optimistic than you are still, but yeah spidey sense tingling a bit

"All the world's a stage" rings just as if not more true as it did 400 years ago it seems

That's funny, I thought of that quote while writing. 🤜🤛

The right doesn’t really exist anymore, the left doesn’t really exist either. Like you mentioned, the spectrum has been pushed so far left & at the same time, I’d argue most dems are Neocons.

For now, this is the closest thing to a right wing populist/nationalist govt, or so it seems. But I truly believe most conservatives today are just ticked off people that would generally align themselves with traditional liberalism, or centrists.

I personally don’t really look at left or right, it kind of just seems like there’s different clans struggling for power, that’s what make it muddy. Bush, Obama, Clinton’s, Biden, whether wearing a D or R pushed the same agenda, I’d call em their own clan- 2 wings of the same bird.

Who knows what agenda is in motion now. All I can say from an outside perspective is that some pretty important information has come to the surface via these DOGE audits, lots of executive orders signed, the ball is in motion, there’s action, and for that reason I and many others like what we see. Here’s the catch, we just have to be able to judge his future actions without consistency bias.

It’s not team sports, and people forget that

good points.

Just a rant, was kind of off topic now that I read back 😂.

Point stands though, if you identify with a political party, it’s okay to be apart of the group- but don’t rely future actions to align with your bias or previous actions.

Essentially just don’t get psy opped 🤣
