      Volkswagen did okay. Mind you, only after Hitler’s empire had collapsed and Hitler himself had eaten a bullet.

      Elon, if you’re listening…

        I can’t wait till the whole lot of these billionaire parasites get what’s coming to them. They are a plague on humanity.

            They are currently doing their damnedest to collapse the US economy, it’s entirely possible that a simple recession let alone a depression could collapse the federal government. This would make their billions monopoly money and make them easy pickings, the ravens would feast.

              Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see it. But they have so much power and money and military that they could declare martial law and lock it all down before that. They own things other than money: property, supplies, land. Yes, hungry people would go after that, but this isn’t the French Revolution. The weapons of the elite are much more powerful now.

                The thing is they’re fucking over everyone military included, sure they could theoretically give guns to untrained morons but that’s only so effective. Also I kinda doubt there are enough mud boots to lock down LA let alone every city. There may be a million active military personnel but a solid majority of that is support staff that would be hard to shift around if not impossible.

                That’s all just looking at the basic military aspect. Plenty of them own property but that’s kinda meaningless if the enforcement mechanics also break down. I doubt any of them have billions in physical assets and yet again would any of it be worth anything could they enforce their ownership properly or would their own security start stripping the copper from the walls.

                Also when empires collapse it’s never for one reason, and the US has many reasons. Don’t believe the hype of the rich, they have nothing of worth short of their organs in a collapse scenario of any type.

          Geez … easy, bro.

          We’re not saying you can’t enjoy it, alright! But if you start perving on the violence, don’t think we’re not gonna take notice, okay?

        Not a call to violence, but while correlation doesn’t mean causation… Well.

        History rhythms and we’re impatient for the verse to end.

        Nazi car has Nazi reputation

        I’m happy to hear that the free world denounces Nazis and Nazi products

            What are you going on about? He was banned for trolling, and standard SOP for most mods dealing with trolls is to delete all their content (with a single click).

                Be a mod. Deal with trolls on a regular basis. At some point you too with have absolutely no desire to scroll through their history filled with insults and ragebait to judge each and every comment individually. Confirmed troll? Check. Nuke all comments from said user. Done.
