    Being a doomer is bad if you’re stating theories as facts while giving no supporting evidence. For example:

    • Why would withdrawn international relations result in right wing voting? Isn’t it more likely to fuel populist voting (not strongly attached to regressive or progressive policies)? What historical trends are you looking at? Just pasting the American flag onto the Weimar Republic based on vibes?
    • What makes you think the polling is temporary? Putting aside the topic of fair elections, voters who have been subjected to this administration’s chaos and are consistently polling negatively will turn on their heads and lick boots because of… Saber rattling? A weak passport? An (even more) destroyed economy? 300 million cases of Stockholm Syndrome? I’m really scratching my head here…
    • 1% by what metric? The collapse will drag out for 100 years? Wealth? The USA will be using stone age tools by the end of it? Population? Deaths? Quality of life? Deportations?.. It surely can get worse but 99% in almost any metric is absurd.

    I can’t even agree or disagree with you because your comments are so shallow that they can’t hold up to a discussion; ergo bad.

            Damn almost like I’m holding my fucking phone ya numpty. Is typing that hard for you?

            Crazy thing is I don’t even fundamentally disagree with your first comment, but you’re not supporting it (or really adding anything of value in the whole thread)

              So I’m not doing a good enough job supporting an opinion I know a bunch of fed cunts will cry about with a TON of words without sources, and… I’m the bad guy? L M F A O.

              Enjoy your eventual permanent unemployment.

                Nah it’s clearly not that, anybody can make an offhand comment without being a bad guy. You’re a bad guy because you’re an abrasive shit who fed jackets anyone who calls him out. I pray to God you go back and get your high school diploma if you think ~3 paragraphs is a TON of words, otherwise you might be unemployed a hell of a lot longer than me
