It will probably get replaced by coal meanwhile.
Just because it’s not forbidden to post US politics somewhere does not mean you have to flood the place with it.

This is a new take on “is it in yet?”
How often? I do too depending on what mood I wake up in.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•In a zombie apocalypse where do you hold up assuming you can secure any location you chose?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I think this is the first war we aren't hiding by bad guy vs good guy scenario. So lets say the US and allies get control of the oil..how do that solve dependence on it?
4·3 days agoThe US have been a net exporter of oil since 2020 something due to domestic shale oil. The meme about US starting wars to get more oil was probably valid in 2003 but not in 2026.
What they can do is try to cause a 1970s oil crisis in China, who is a net importer. China can and does invest massively in EV, solar and wind to reduce this vulnerability.
As long as you don’t give off overly attached girlfriend meme vibes.

You can start your own instance if you feel like they are too restrictive.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Would you ever walk up to a total stranger and strike up a conversation?
1·4 days agoAt the shooting range I’ve talked to half a dozen different people last year that I’ve never seen before. Never hung around after work though, probably because they have more than my preferred amount of penises for dates.
I thought I had seen everything on the Internet, but I have not seen a black woman with a white asshole.
I guess this it what it feels like to have purpose in life.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do people in countries outside the US believe our bases in their countries like terrorist cells/bases our country videws theirs? How is the reputation of our military being in a peacefull country?

You can figure out when he is doing a taco and when he is actually threatening a war. Greenland rhetoric was not accompanied by troop movement.

25·7 days agoThis is not Trump thinking. This is done by career bureaucrats in the pentagon that are not political appointees.
They publish documents of US Defense policy every few years. Basically saying that China and Taiwan is the most important issue for US. Europe should spend the money to defend Europe so that US can focus on east Asia. The contents have gone largely unchanged for the last few administrations.
For whatever reason you want to give for Trumps actions are in line with what the documents say. Venezuela and Iran are minor players that support China. Europe is spending more on defense than ever before.
The difference with Trump vs Biden is Trump seems more likely to take risks by kidnapping Maduro, bombing Iran, pissing off Europe.

I think authoritarian is the word you’re looking for.
A fascist is authoritarian and nationalistic. A theocracy you’re thinking of would be authoritarian and religious.
Anyway what is your ruling on the varican city? Does that qualify as a theocracy?
