That Gadaffi Drip

And the election was not even rigged. You did this to yourselves in plain sight. It is super duper pathetic. From the boldest, most inspiring nation in the world to an insane, self-mutilating idiocracy in like a couple of decades. What the fuck!

Hey, relax guy

how through history, grandiose and gilded decor and architecture has been used to manipulate, convince and enthrall the masses.

Even to this day, we have Wehraboos. If I am a historian and with plenty of time to research and make takedown videos on Nazism, which unfortunately i don't have at the moment, I want to make videos on dispelling the myth of Nazi superiority and how they are given way too much credit.

Plenty of people do not realise that the Nazis are not different to third world dictatorships. Similar to Trump having a fight with Federal Reserve director, Jerome Powell, Hitler didn't want to listen to his economic minister, Hjalmar Schacht, that Germany's excessive government spending is going to bankrupt the country. It was in late 1930s that Germany's coffers was running out, and it was not a coincidence that Hitler invaded Poland and, to his own surprise, the Allies declared war. Hitler was trying to plunder the wealth of Poland to stave off another economic collapse, like how the previous annexations of Sudetenland and Austria gave them financial cash injection to go a little further.

Fact of the matter is that Hitler and the Nazis were lucky to have inherited strong institutions, namely the Prussian military culture, to have lasted longer than expected. All things considered, the Nazis were merely poor gamblers whose bluffs were eventually called out and ran out of cards. The Nazis were just winging it (I mean, he did not expect the Allies to declare war on him, and he admitted that the planned invasion of France through the Ardennes forest turns his stomach), which is not too different to other tyrants and dictators like Nero, Idi Amin and Muammar Ghadaffi who make decisions on emotions.

People of various inclinations should just stop giving too much credit to the Nazis. I suspect that the current right, with their mountains of cash support from oligarchs, possess the machinery to perpetuate the propaganda to re-normalise fascism. Nonetheless, the Nazis are inherently weak and incompetent. People say that the Thousand Year Reich may well have happened if they won, but objectively they will run out of money in ten years even if they conquered the entire world, because they are that corrupt and incompetent.

Spirit Halloween knows exactly what it is though. It's not posing or putting on a front. It may not be Sperrys with flat front olive chinos, but it's certainly not pretending to be anything but itself.

We need a working class president not some corrupt neoliberal democrat with no teeth

"Daddy always said, you can't by class, but you can watch people try"

Donald Trump just has awful taste. He want to surround himself with shiny "gold" things and always has.

The difference is that this is in a historic imperial palace (Yildiz palace) with (refurbished) historic imperial chairs... They don't just look like they were build for the padishah, they were build for the padishah (Abdul Hamid II).

Clarification:

The Pee Pee Tape purportedly shows Trump directing two underage prostitutes to pee on the bed that Barack and Michelle Obama had slept on when they visited Moscow during his presidency. This amused him greatly. What went on beyond that with the underage prostitutes is unknown, but we already know that's his type. Now we know the kinds of activities that he finds amusing.

And the decor is awful too.
