*I am going to post this on three subreddits that I think most will get a good laugh out of it*

We have known for some time that Trump and his cronies are lying about the U.S. Economy and the associated data.

At this point they should be awarded the Michelin Star because they are cooking the books at a fantastical level lol

This moron is going to cause another 2008 great financial crisis.

This "Everything Bubble" economy is gonna burst.

*I am going to be posting this in a few of my favorite leftist-progressive subreddits. I know most regulars are well aware/informed on these realities but it will be important for those scrolling through Reddit that may stumble upon it. It's also something everyone in the leftist-progressive sphere needs to prepare for in regards to class consciousness/solidarity movement building.*

$150 WTI/BRENT = Recession

$200+ WTI/BRENT = Depression

This is a "Everything Bubble" economy just looking to burst.

There is going to be a lot of suffering of the working class and most vulnerable who always suffers disproportionately.

It's going to very much worsen the affordability of life crisis/quality of life crisis especially on foundational realities like food.

This is going to be fucking hard people. Very fucking hard.

Even with all the dark-dystopian shit coming our way there is a few bright spots.

1. Renewable Energy/Green(er) Technology is going to flourish in a massive way. We've already been seeing a lot in these last 5+ years but we are about to see MASSIVE investment, research & development, and implementation in this arena. The Fossil Fuel Industry framework has been exposed to individuals, organizations, and whole nation-states as huge vulnerability points. (This in and of itself is a big big win for leftist-progressives because the Oil & Gas Lobby is INCREDIBLY connected to far right-wing movements not just in the U.S. but across the globe. You weaken one and you weaken the other.)

2. Independents but ESPECIALLY the alienated/disillusioned youth are going to be looking for brighter and better. WE NEED TO BE PREPARED to reach them. We've seen youth in particular be targeted by right-wing con artist grifters that look to hustle them on fear/hatred so they can self-enrich further off that framework. There is youth/alienated people that will of course keep doubling down on the reactionary/regressive sphere of anti-science, anti-medicine, anti-environment, and baseless hatred of "Other" but a lot are realizing that is just a race to the bottom and will never address the substantive challenges of this era. It will never make their life better and they are coming to wake up to that.

This next few years is going to be CRUCIAL. We need not just more domestic networking but international networking.

We need solidarity movements!

It's time for big profound-inspiring pushes in the Labour Movement, Environmentalist Movement, Women's Rights Movement, LGBTQ+ Rights Movement, Civil Rights Movement, Peace Movement, Alter-Globalization Movement, and so on for a better and brighter tomorrow.

Giving people something to really rally around and really fight for.

NO MORE PLAYING IT SAFE WITH MILQUETOAST! THAT IS ONLY GOING TO DRIVE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF RADICALIZATION!

I just finished watching Trumps statement on Iran.....

I'll keep this short and sweet: Propaganda is not just a "foreign" reality.

*I know people of general awareness/education are this point just tired from all this insanity but it is important we keep calling it out. I'll be posting this on a few subreddits I enjoy visiting.*

Trump/His Cronies are con artist grifters. Trump himself is a stereotypical snake oil salesman.

These lunatics are going to take the whole world down a very very dark/dystopian road.

They can't even spin it well anymore.
