Culling population through survival of the fittest... [View all]

It's becoming increasingly clear that the goal of MAGA leadership and many fellow fascist-leaning leaders around the world is to reduce world population by making living conditions and the ability to pay the cost of living impossible, enabling endless war and conflict, and in Trump's case denying the existence of global warming. Rather than doing the hard work to make the planet habitable and living conditions work for everyone, the new Trump cabinet would rather grift, party, play golf, and eliminate Federal institutions. This trend should be particularly alarming to the low-income MAGA base that have been misled into putting Trump in power.

Medical Care

  • Not requiring child immunization and encouraging people not to get vaccinated will lead to major outbreaks of disease causing death, as happened in Samoa after RFK Jr. travelled there.

  • Cutting NIH research will reduce future cures for disease.

  • Privatizing medicare may ultimately lead to higher costs with fewer options.

  • Treating women as second-class citizens who should stay at home to take care of children that were not planned will make it much more difficult for many families to survive. Expect to see more homeless, including those children.

Economy
  • Trade wars and forcing undocumented workers to leave will increase inflation, including food costs and much of what you can buy at Walmart.

  • Eliminating or reducing social security will make it more difficult for the elderly and people with disabilities to survive. Maybe the solution for this will be to reduce restrictions on assisted suicide?

War and Conflict
  • Plans for corrupting leadership at the Pentagon and the FBI will lead to the use of the FBI and military against US citizens, including anyone who dares to criticize the autocrat.

  • Pardoning Jan. 6th rioters will encourage more violence against the Left and its leadership, and Congress and the Judicial System in general.

Global Warming
  • "Drill baby drill" may be Trump's solution for Wall Street, but as the world's second leading polluter of CO2 we should be seeing increased worldwide flooding and damage from storms, not to mention worsening hurricanes and weather extremes in areas where this is becoming more of a problem.
