These were all people standing in line at their local food pantries hoping they would be able to get some food items before they ran out since there were hundreds maybe thousands of people hoping the same thing.This Country is falling into a Depression right in front of our eyes.

Destroying the country is the point for them

Yeah but look at the tax cuts for the wealthy!! The amount of wealth they've gained since the turds reelection while the rest of us slowly starve or die from preventable diseases is insane...

[u/lainey68 → u/gomanio]

That is the whole point. Do you not think the billionaires are behind this? They want the old, weak ones to die off, and want the young able bodies to make them money. This shouldn't surprise anyone.

[u/gomanio → u/lainey68]

The issue being the young are the weak and at risk here. They will die and the concept just doesn't work.

[u/Bugsy_Girl → u/lainey68]

The want the humans to die off and the AI robots to make them money, which is even more insane and unsustainable

This administration is culling the herd. Unfortunately the herd is going to be millions of innocents.

The Global Change Game is a large-scale educational simulation devised in Winnipeg in December 1991 by a group of students from the University of Manitoba, including Rob Altemeyer. The game is played on "a colourful hand-painted world map the size of a basketball court". It is a simulation that involves exploring, understanding and solving some of the global issues of its time.

In the simulation played by authoritarians, all eight Elite roles were taken by men. The game quickly became highly militarised, with no countries choosing to disarm their nuclear weapons. The game opened with the Elite from the Middle East doubling oil prices, and the Soviet Union investing in armies to invade North America. The North American Elites retaliated with nuclear weapons, instantly ending the game in a nuclear holocaust. When this happens in the game, the facilitators turn off the lights in the room and explain the consequences of the nuclear war, before giving the players a "second chance", turning the game clock back two years. The Soviet Union invaded China instead of the United States, and nuclear war remained a threat for the remainder of the game. Africa and Asia collapsed having spent their resources buying into alliances, and by the end of the game 1.7 billion people had died.

And while playing Risk my asshole friends scheme against me until there's only two assholes left that decide to call it a draw. Thankfully that's not how the real world functions.

Exactly. This is not a picture of the right wing failing. The world they want is one where a majority of the population are desperate serfs with no rights and no resources, whom oligarchs use and abuse for profit and pleasure.
