The lyrics in this one put them all together.

This article makes you long for the days of hypocrisy.   Trumpolini's new truthy motto:  We at MAGA want to return to the good old days when niggers rode on the back of the bus, you could grab a woman's pussy without any backtalk, any pussy old enough to pee was old enough for me, and Chinks, Japs and Wetbacks worked for peanuts, and we're proud of it.

The white man's burden, Trump edition

RE

Why it matters: The coming days carry stakes measured in decades: war and peace in the Middle East, the trajectory of the U.S.-China relationship, and the rules governing the AI revolution.  State of play: Trump's China summit was once seen as a de facto deadline for stabilizing the Iran war. But with Air Force One set to land in Beijing on Wednesday evening, the conflict remains unresolved.

His Legacy is already sealed...as the single most destructive national leader in ALL of Recorded History, going back to Biblical Times.

Critics in both parties fear Trump's appetite for grand bargains and personal diplomacy could undermine U.S. support for Taiwan, which Xi is determined to bring under Beijing's control as soon as 2027.

Xi is going to eat Trump alive.

In the letter to the secretaries of defense, state and homeland security on Wednesday morning, reviewed by the Guardian, Democratic lawmakers led by Delia Ramirez, a representative from Illinois, linked a rise in migration from the island nation to the heightening US aggression on Cuba.

Unfortunately with Trumpolini. people telling him NOT to do something only increases the likelihood he WILL do it. 😒  Plus as mentioned in a previous article, it's part of the whole crisis of Capitalism and the failing Petrodollar.

It is hard to see though practically how he would do it with so much of the military resources currently dedicated to the war in Iran.  Cuba is much smaller, weaker and more isolated of course, so it wouldn't take more than a division of Marines to pull it off.  There's also the question of whether the Generals would continue following what are clearly Illegal Orders.

Never a dull day in Collapse with the Chump as POTUS.

Well...I'd wait until we get an actual collapse before pretending a normal dull day with the Ornage one in charge has caused even a slowdown in population growth, let alone the number getting smaller at all.

Hopes and Dreams reign, in the world of Doom! Be happy how long you've been wrong, as mostly likely personal doom will get the 3 of us senior citizen Americans, high net worth or not. Matter of fact, all 3 of us are making a bet on it! K-Dog and I betting on high net worth to see us through, and RE betting on the State truddling along, Trump in charge or not.

Well, I'd rather be a year early than a day late. 😀  Given that we see population declines in so many countries now though, I think it's fair to say the dieoff is underway.

Just a thought, but you wouldn't have to erase posts if you didn't claim things that were so easily dispatched with facts. Too much reliance on praticing against dementia patients IRL is my bet....not enough practice against the real deal. Go find a janitor to test out bad facts on first, then you wouldn't be so embarassed that you needed to erase the evidence of how easily your claim was to dismiss.   

I haven't erased any posts except the Ruskie spam in at least a month.

QuoteAI Overview         Over 40 countries and territories currently experience negative population growth. This trend is driven by low fertility rates, aging populations, and outward migration. The most severely affected regions are Eastern Europe, East Asia, and several island territories.Eastern and Southeastern EuropeThis region contains the highest concentration of shrinking populations due to sustained low birth rates combined with decades of working-age emigration.Ukraine: Experienced drastic population loss due to both the war and significant emigration.Baltic States: Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia.Balkans: Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Albania, and Greece.Other European Nations: Bulgaria, Romania, Poland, Moldova, Hungary, and Belarus.East and Southeast AsiaDeclines in these countries are largely driven by record-low fertility rates, high life expectancies, and very little immigration.China: The world's most populous country until recently, now experiencing overall population contraction due to the lasting impacts of the one-child policy and rapidly aging demographics.Japan: Japan's population has been declining for years due to a shrinking workforce and one of the oldest median ages in the world.South Korea: Faces the world's lowest fertility rates, resulting in a significant natural population decrease.Taiwan: Also shows a negative population growth rate.Major Western European EconomiesWhile some Western European nations maintain stable populations or slight growth due to immigration, a few large economies are actively shrinking naturally.Germany and Italy.Other Nations and TerritoriesRussiaCubaTerritories: Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the Cook Islands, and Saint Martin.

OMFG is he complaining about loosing his snarky posts that he made to the 'Russian' bots?  (no way are they actually Russian) When a bot creates a post that starts a thread in Russian advertising some online gambling link or some IT bullshit service, it goes to the great bit bucket in the sky. 

And any idiot actually replying to a 'Russian' bot started thread is deleted when the thread is destroyed as it should be.

There is no bigger 'tell' that gives a troll away more directly than this kind of complaint.

Most likely the men in black but TDoS could be masturbating.

At least the bot posts might have some valuable information for gambling addicts.  That's more than I can say for TDoS contributions.

Then the bot posts can die for his sins as they take his posts along with them on their ride into oblivion.

So....you can't even be bothered to do your own thinking nowadays? AI is interesting, but pretending it knows stuff without doing some basic checking can be dicey.

As far as what was "renditioned", it was the usual population growth stats circa 2026 showing population still going up, as expected.

No, in the states mentioned such as China, Japan, Russia, Greece etc with low immigration, their populations are already decreasing.  The only ones such as the FSoA, Canada etc where it's still going up slightly is from immigration.  India hasn't had a proper census in over a decade, it's currently underway and likely going down.  Africa is basically a big black hole with no reliable numbers, but with war, disease and famine all over the continent, it's not looking good.

AI is handy for saving time on responding to trolls.

And for those needing data showing world population isn't decreasing. Want to bet I can still get ice in my drinks along the AlCan Highway? Nah, I didn't think so.
