It's more that incompetence and infighting might prevent an organized effort to destroy the world. Wishing them luck, that's accelerationism.

Or creeping into Slaughterbots terrority.

I knew it wasn't real because it mentioned he regretted anything.

"If you're good at something, never do it for free."

aim to overhaul federal programs, enact conservative policies, and investigate Trump’s legal adversaries.

"America First" was always an oxymoron. MAGA always means great for certain people. It's going to be surreal to have to listen to both the gloating of tasting liberal tears while asking why the Democrats aren't doing anything to help the country.

Leopards...leopards everywhere.

It could be that simple. He didn't realize the potential the first time around and so many things got in the way, including a disaster that tried to force a leadership role on him. This time enough was changed and built up to prevent the obstacles, and he not only can avoid justice for his past, but he can, in his own words, "do anything and they'll let you."

As an American, I think you're spot on. I keep thinking how America is portrayed in the series "Years and Years" might happen this time around.

I was told in posts from the last disaster that Spain has floods all the time and this isn't a big deal. I'm beginning to think they might have been not telling the truth.

What's worse is when the top is your self image, that you imagine others see, and the bottom being picture or mirror or whatever that shows the reality.

I enjoyed the first movie. In retrospect they could have expanded better within the movie instead of the outside novelettes to explain each character more in depth. I don't think she's a Mary Sue any more than Anakin is, even less so, but again I read the backstories and get why it feels that way without them. The other two movies stumbled for a lot of reasons, ruining what I think could have been a good story. Honestly from the very start, when Luke tosses the sabre away, I was like "oh no..." Not what I wanted or needed from that.
