I must have done something catastrophically karmic in my last life, for real

It has been oddly difficult to find one with this design, tbh

Uh, yeah. They basically had the bid for the new nonsense missile defense contract orangeboi wants to do in the bag before it was even announced.

Hey, ngl, I used to watch every single one of these - I would set alarms to wake up for weird launch times and everything. But now, I’ve fully stopped caring. Kinda hard to give a shit when the guy who owns the thing is an overt fascist and is aggressively helping to tear apart the country and what remains of it’s government and turn it into an authoritarian hellscape.

Inb4 tHiS isN’t a PoLitiCAL cOmMuniTy - we don’t live in a vacuum, and SpaceX losing its shine due to massive, obvious insider dealing as a direct result of the overtly fascist CEO being tied at the hip to our scintillatingly fascist ruling regime kinda kills my enthusiasm for literally anything he’s affiliated with.

El. Psy. Congroo.

Bahahahaha you beat me to it

lol

More seriously, the United Pacific States.

Us over in the upper right corner can be the Arcadian Union

That’s actually a real thing at a bunch of corporate prisons here in the states, particularly in the south. They’ll “rent out” inmates as laborers.

Irony is dead.

Just dropping the kids off at the pool, myself

I ain’t your pal, buddy.

But I am poopin’.

And then the non-shit states will have ✨ immigration and customs ✨ for all the white supremacists and y’all qaeda types.

All I mean is that there is a LOT of stuff in the “Find Out” chapter of this book if all these chucklefucks insist on exploring the story in its entirety.

I could legitimately see Texas bringing back slavery if they become their own country, tbh

Maybe citizens can try out some citizen police review FPV drones next? Those are gonna be harder to disband.

Subbed lol

If this ends up in the Balkanization of the US, it’s gonna be the blue coastal and some Midwest states that are actually economically productive (perhaps as some sort of related-but-technically-separate merged regional unions), and then the south + flyover states descending into 3rd world status.

And like… I’m kinda over giving a shit about confeds. Have the day you voted for.

Edit: geoeconomic idea for Canadia: invest more in US>CA>US transit routes. Make a great-circle-pathed rail line from near Seattle to VT/NH/Maine, with a spur down towards Buffalo too, perhaps.

• it’s shorter than the Cartesian “line”
• defense-in-depth is very viable for the mid-country areas, if our government decides to try to grab some Lebensraum
• can continue to support, trade, and interact with less dumb parts of the country, or whatever independent union states they become in the apres-Balkanization phase

Don’t invest in EU luxury brands.

Invest in EU defense brands.

I do like how the pointedly use the correct year for the start of the invasion.

Ukraine and Russia have been at war for 11 years. Russia just tried to keep it swept under the rug for the first 8.
