30. It's only dick stepping if it isn't exactly what you want to do.

Everyone focuses on how “stupid” and “crazy” these people are and not on just how vicious and calculated they are. These people are fierce class warriors who are determined to extract as much wealth as they can from the working class for their ruling class owners and themselves.

Trump is a carnival barker and a figurehead who simply wants his ego stroked and to increase his personal fortune as much as he can. The Project 2025 people, the ones really pulling the strings, are smart, ruthless class warriors and they’re doing exactly what they want to do in all of these situations they’ve created. Look who’s making all the money off of this war. They’re openly manipulating the markets and raking in billions. The crypto scams, the gutting of the government, the tariffs, the slashing of benefits and services while increasing government spending in private sectors. They’re making a killing and they’re taking it out of all of our pockets.

The constant stupid, crazy, senile or “missteps” criticisms really just let them off the hook as if they’re just bumbling along instead of doing exactly what they want to do.

They aren’t stepping on their dicks. This is deliberate thievery under the guise of chaos. This is capitalism working exactly the way it’s supposed to. We invited the vampires into the house and they’re doing what vampires do.

It’s amazing how many people can’t see what’s happening right in front of their faces.
