People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

I wish it was 4D chess but there is no coherent plan beyond personal enrichment.

Why can't it be both? You think these people don't get together and make plans? All these freaks are in signal chats together planning, scheming, etc., just like the rest of us but yeah they're doing it for personal enrichment. Trump isn't smart but he commands many very smart people who do the heavy intellectual lifting. When did it become so gauche to believe in actual conspiracies? These people conspire, they make plans, they try to carry them out. If they didn't then they wouldnt be where they are

A lot of what I'm talking about comes from my crude understanding of the stupidly named "Mara-Lago Accords". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mar-a-Lago_Accord

Its really hard to say whether they will be totally successful, but they have a lot of backing by the richest and most powerful people in the world. So we should be concerned imo
