It's not going to be some "this is what they're eating/injecting now" type thing.
I recently entertained a conversation with a stranger at a wedding who turned out to be a chud. More or less let them speak at length before I responded. The general gist was that Ron Desantis will be the next president and he'll solve our problems via dominating China.
The guy was pretty focused on jobs lost to china. I asked him who makes the decisions about shifting manufacturing abroad, the workers or the corporate managers. He answered the corporate managers which allowed me to ask if he felt the workers should have a say in the matter which kind of stumped him. He then doubled down on Desantis.
My point is that the "next thing" will be China.
china has been "the thing" in foreign policy for years now. there are anti-china propaganda pieces every single day on the BBC. it is bi-partisan and a project of the entire anglosphere by idiots who want
another cold warto continue the anti-communist crusade that has been a constant campaign of global murder and warfare since the 1800s.the “next thing” will be China.
:astronaut-2: :astronaut-1:
Always has been
Good point. They're gonna triple down on the New Cold War rhetoric during the 2024 primary
Jesus. It's so this. Rs and some Ds love shitting on China because it's an easy scapegoat and checks all the typical xenophobic boxes. The problem is actual capitalists love China so it puts otherwise hawkish and/or conservative elites at crossroads.

It already is. $300,000,000 per year is going to be put towards dragging China in media till 2026.
Find an old-ass medical condition, like dropsy or scrofula or something, find whatever they mixed with laudanum to treat it, and up the dosage by 4. Then throw a dart at a board of whatever chuds are mad about this week.
There you go, one ready made grift.
laudanum mixed with botox and obama's blood boofed up your asshole with a 12 gauge needle
IMO the reason these white American reactionaries have these brainworms is, up until about a decade or two ago, they had themselves an entire society that catered to them and their beliefs, desires, etc. A number of factors have caused them to lose their perceived grip on power, but personally I think it all came to a head when gay marriage was legalized in 2013. The way society seemed to shift from that... I think that was the moment the religious reactionaries truly lost the culture war. Pretty much everything they've done since then has just been their impotent ways of trying to reassert power. Trump made them feel like they had the power back, but now that he's gone the brainworms are really coming out.
So personally, I think the brainworms are going to start manifesting in terms of reactionaries trying to assert power over the most vulnerable. I'm seeing small groups of wannabe tough guys in tacticool gear trying to do "citizens arrests" on undocumented persons, the homeless, or anyone they think is breaking or about to break the law. And the pigs will more or less let them get away with it.
The biggest delusion that Chuds have is the idea of "internal locus of control" and "personal responsibility". They think that they have absolute control over their lives, and that when they say something, people have to listen and reaction the way they want (this is really common with Boomers in general tbf, they think that saying something obligates other people to listen and to respond in a specific way, or they throw a tantrum). You see this a lot with bitter online incel types too - they think the world is a video game where you just have to do the Thing, and you get what you want (because of course poor people are just stupid and didn't do the right thing!)
When they're confronted with something like Covid that directly contradicts this idea, they can't handle it.
this is, incidentally, why they suck so hard at being religious and just use it to pretend everything is fine/hate on others. Christianity emphasizes a lot how you are just suppose to throw yourself on God's mercy, because you don't really have any power in the universe anyway. There's the humanist perspective on human's achievements and all, but most chuds aren't that philosophical.
That sounds real Papist... God's grace is demonstrated by your wealth on Earth, and if you die, it means He was calling you home.
I'll say it until I'm blue in the face, you don't get capitalism without protestantism.
I believe their next weird bugbear substance is going to be radon. Whether that's going to be adding it or removing it from their environments, we'll have to see.
Whether that’s going to be adding it or removing it...
What a fucking timeline we live in.
G*mers are way ahead of the curve on this once again. They've been malding about TLOU2 since it came out and still going strong
good we'll be able to shovel their glowing bodies into our future chinese manufactured next gen reactors.
At this rate its going to be something so completely nonsensical like, actually vitamin D and C are bad actually and people will start getting scurvy again
"I cut myself a week ago and and the cut is opening up again! Praise god!"
The return of the mother fuckin tunnel tots.
You see the real reason the kids in school have to wear mask is to get them used to the lower oxygen levels of the tunnels and make it easier to swap them out for the DARPA clones. Trump was gonna stop it, but now Biden is in power and the tunnels are back in business. Millions of children are about to disappear! :elmofire:
A war on Halloween, maybe? Marches against ironic costumes, anti-demonic protests?
With the influences from the new-age people that are now into Qanon, any treatment for covid is conceivable.
If birth rates keep plummeting at the rate they are, it's gonna have something to do with that. And it's gonna be baaaaaaaaaaad.
Full on Russiagate collusion / manchurian candidate brainworms, but replace Russia with China and Trump with Biden. Some libs will hop on board too because the media has been training everyone to hate China for years, while other libs to the surprised pikachu face..
We’re gonna see old MAGA grannies with enormous fake tits
Disgustingly this already exists
