When did our timeline diverge from real history to an alternative history scenario written by a chinese nationalist...

Did millennials realize the shit show that they were creating back in early 10s high school message boards?

we got stuck in the wrong timeline

Slightly related to your comment

I do believe feminist frequency's influence did led to pic related which radicalized a considerable amount of apolitical weebs against the GOP's opposition.

Crazy that gamergate just never ended. There's still people that keep ranting about wokeness in video games, and perhaps there always will be.

I don't think gamergate really had much of an impact, it's just funny to think it did.
the truth is that obama just sucked and the gop wasn't coming up with anything better, so people ralled behind trump and voted him in out of spite for the system

Obama saved us from Bush's shit economy

The tariff thing is a Maoist-incel class uprising against women with email jobs

usa imports more from the world than we export to the usa so I'm pretty sure it's going to be worse for you

Europeans cannot purchase gas or petrol now

Somehow not affected

Wow

Brent is literally crashing (based blompf)

absolute nafo cope ITT

Do you retards not have eyes?
In the picture Europa and China are also bleeding.

NOOOOO WE HAVE TOO MUCH MONEY WE CAN'T JUST PAY PEOPLE HIGH WAGES FOR COMFORTABLE JOBS WE MUST ALL SUFFER AT THE ALTAR OF ORANGE RETARD

The tiny shartmerican brain has finally decayed to the point where they think making money and paying people is bad. They would genuinely rather their whole town got forced for work for pittance wages in a sweatshop than see a brown woman driving a Porsche

when you look back at the major GG voices, the same retards pop up, like Tim Pool, Cernovich, Milo, etc
And some morons cannot put two and two together and realize they're being played by these fucking assholes

US imports are 15.41% of its GDP, the fifth lowest in the world. For context, Sweden’s imports are 49.58% of its GDP.

That's splatter from America.

100% of America's imports are from the rest of the world on which you just declared a trade war. 100% of Sweden's imports are not from America.

The swedish rupee is not the world reserve currency people invest on when glibal recession hits and war is iver the corner.

Sweden isn't putting tariffs on all imports, you are. Since your school was underfunded and you lack reading comprehension: we eurangutangs lose money for everything you stop buying from us, you lose money for everything you import. The latter is greater than the former.

the stuff we actually need we’ll pay the tariff on, and the rest will be built in america. sorry, but the deindustrialization will stop.

the latter is greater than the former

cope you pulled from your ass

a very specific obscure subculture of middle aged conspiracy theorist leftwingers here in serbia is having a blast being vindicated as fuck and i am super happy for them,they were ignored as lunatics for decades and are now wise sages.

What are their theories exactly?

jobs mostly replaced by automation will somehow reverse

You are dumber than hammered dogshit

Reddit

the rest will be built in america.

So either it will become vastly more expensive or Americans will be working for sweatshop wages. You already have the highest wages of any major economy in the world, the chances are this will result in the average American being paid less for harder work with fewer prospects of advancement.

oh no no no europoor bros, i thought tariffs only hurt america!

You are just deeply retarded and fail to understand how economics work
Americans are already paying sufficient money to buy at massive surplus and produce at massive surplus for very high wages but are outsourcing it.
This means america is deindustrializing wnd becoming a service economy which is a national security threat and puts american hegemony, which is why amerivans are rich to start with, on the edg

The tariffs are quite literally just taxating importers.

This means that moving induatry at american domestic marketd becomes much cheaper, or importing otherwise provides a surplus of substraced tariff money which either makes up for the deficit or is also likely reinvested in sblubsidies

That alone makes the investment profitable but the prospect that american producers are being rewarded with subsisidies, or have chances to compete in highly profitable markets at american domestic level, for dollars, which are backed in oil, gold, military resources, american goods and services and natural resources. Is more than sufficient reason for investors to pour money at america.

the shizo fun ones are about slav paganism and deep history being a serb fed psyop,chem trails,typical health nut shit etc the rest are about local politics and individual affairs from tadic times they mostly come out as truth in wikileaks when nobody cares anymore but them.
They have been predicting the collapse of globalism and americas exit citing the behavior of their national bourgeoise compared to the international players and were on the money.

Reddit

such is the time

The dollar as reserve currency is dependent on importing more than exporting and on americas perceived stability and military strength all of which trump just has torpedoed.

How exactly are you going to run american industry when all the component and material import is tariffed? Your answer is needed like, today so you can't just say that you'll start producing those in the US later. If you listen to the jungle drums the CEOs are panicking and trump isn't even picking up the phone, he's literally golfing. Nobody was prepped for this, nobody has the time to react to this, companies will go fucking bust as a consequence.

Ignore him, that retard is anti-European Yankee-lover, you'll recognise him by the abhorrent anti-European threads he makes every day.

I don't think you understand the purchasing power disparity between the US and thirdie countries. If there are 100% tariffs on t shirts and shoes from Vietnam it'd still be cheaper to make the shoes in Vietnam because Vietnamese overheads are more like 10-20% of what they'd be in the US. Big ticket items like cars are more affected but most manufacturers have US plants anyway.
And money raised from tariffs won't touch the sides of the US structural deficit

I hate this climate

The dollar as reserve currency is dependent on importing more than exporting

Lmfao no.
The dollar as reserve currency mantains hegemony because you, as a producer, want dollars in any time of international turmoil because
1- America is a bastion, no matter the time it is always a reliable source of commodities and escape route
2-the Dollar access the stock of america surveillance, tech, oil, defense, logistics and consultancy sector, which are not only the largest but also the most meaningful ones on earth.
There is only one military hegemon and its america.

Trump just proved that america might as well form a more open trade agreements with israel and russia, two of the most relevant states MIlitary tech and resource wise in eurasia.

Investors have many reasons to pour moneynin america where the rest of the world is submerged into a recession and a crisis like in 2008, where it started too in america; because while the rest of the world might not have liquidity to back their currencies america does.

Thats what we call "the imperial core"

Crazy how all this is because the inflated ego of some game journalists

we would be living in a golden age where the republican party doesnt exists, the chud guy never commits a mass shooting, george floyd is alive, covid never happens, and trannies are mostly associated with thai ladyboys and brazilians

+1 to the list of empires destroyed by women

MUH GAMERGATE REEEEEEE

the gamergate retard cannot comprehend that not everything happens is related to gamergate

Cool. Where does the global dollar supply come from then if the US isn't running deficits?

The tariffs on america trading partners are not simply to deincentivize outsourcing.
Tariffs are a tax on importers, if importers want to mantain their access to the commodities the dollar offer; which they do, because the dollar is not backed in labour, it's backed on military assets that in turn give it a degree of stability in times where war and recession appear inminent.
They will have to leverage their profit margins to not lose compeittiveness on american markets by cheapening imports further.
Their currencies will begin devaluating all while the dollar remains high albeit wekened, accesible for investment, and on the brink of a interest rate slash that will make loans and investment mroe attractive to make in the us
There is a large pull factor for investment in american markets no vietnamite ammount of cheap labour makes up for.

They will have to leverage their profit margins to not lose compeittiveness on american markets by cheapening imports further.

Do you think they won't just pass costs on, especially in fields where it simply isn't feasible to relocate to the US? We saw just a few years ago during post-COVID supply shocks that companies are not afraid to pass costs onto consumers to maintain profitability.

Their currencies will begin devaluating all while the dollar remains high albeit wekened

Thus making US exports less attractive. Why would other countries buy American when it costs more?

the brink of a interest rate slash that will make loans and investment mroe attractive to make in the us

Delusion. The fed will not cut rates if tariffs cause price rises, i.e inflation

Bernie the president

Thank dog it didn't happen.

slav paganism and deep history being a serb fed psyop,

Kek based

Do you think they won't just pass costs on

Lol nobecause if they decided to past costs off there is certainly someone else thst wont and the prospect of having a common trade circuit of a currency fungible with russia and israel is a very tempting prospect for any ambitious investor.

During covid the markets remained open to the same monopolies.
If america is closing its markets with massive dollar reserves companies will absorb the cost to not lose market presence or otherwise take the shock and pass the cost unto uncompetitiveness, lose major stock value, and be outcompetes by whatever domestic producer is being funded with the money they substracted from tariffing you, now this producer having a dollar backed hegemony over your market that, once hits overproduction, will begin being imported outside in full providence of the US trade agremeents and the dollar.

Thus making US exports less attractive.

Sure, but if the dollar remains strong, they will still want it. Trump is not trying to make up for the deficit by becoming a major exporter economy.
Is trying to reindustrialize while mantaining buying power.
American imports will remain attractive because domestic industry will move towards seeking dollars as the domestic currency becomes devauated and unreliable, increasing livjng costs in exporters, causing them a inflationary effect and thus making their domestic consumption markets maim, inequity increases and thus you build a comprador minority buying imported goods for dollars that are otherwise inaccesible in their country as it is not produced locally

American imports will remain attractive because domestic industry

Here i meant.
Domestic as in domestic of the country trading with america.
Its simply more profitable to import america for very cheap in what buying power regards to americans than sell locally.

You're forgetting that the US force projection is collapsing in realtime. It will still be the most impenetrable country on earth but it won't do shit in the ME, ukraine or east asia.

and be outcompetes by whatever domestic producer is being funded with the money they substracted from tariffing you,

Problem is that he hasn't worked out anything with those domestic producers. They're all in panic mode after the announcement and he's not even picking up the phone.

They will have to leverage their profit margins to not lose compeittiveness on american markets

Trump is tariffing EVERY country, if ALL consumer goods becoke more expensive to Americans, then it's just American consumers becoming poorer, foreign companies don't have to lower their prices as they'll just pass on the price increases to American consumers.

You're forgetting that the US force projection is collapsing in realtime.

Yes with Biden.
The american bourgeoise and Israel didnt installed donnie for love of the game.
They needed someone to put america back in its place as global mercenary nation relentless to threaten nations and make them pay a fee devaluating their currencies and contracting debt at america demand.

The rearment is along the lines of "Europeans bought oil from iran, now we are going to show america gigantic cock by swinging our hegemony over ME wirh israel, dumping europeans for disobeying, forcing them and canadians to devaluate and then trading with russia"
America foreign policy agenda is also ditching presence in europe and ME for russia and israel in favour of an extended projection over the gulf of mexico and latin america in general

America is now a majority hispanic country with a large stake in the americas.
Europe is more about the past of america than its future.

Are you conflating diplomatic and economic reach with force projection? I'm talking bases and aircraft carriers.

Problem is that he hasn't worked out anything with those domestic producers

For one the mass derregulation, the cuts in spending and pressing the fed to cut interest rates indicates the whole movement is about making the field attractive for investors, when the importers realize the consumptionnis sinking and domestic producers or investment is starting to outcompete their imports because duh, EVERY producer wants american consumers and so they dispose themselves to export at minimum revenue for market presence, they will leverage the prices down largely mitigating the inflationary effect.

Forcing your trade partners to devaluate tonmakr up for the trade deficit is not that surprising.
They are pressing (you) (europe) to devaluate. And thats obviously at your stake. Whoever devaluates is getting their markets cannibalized by murrica

Man you dont begin to fathom the ammount of military tech america has stocked.
The surveillance sector of america alone mogs the entire earth.
There is no european starlink, european palantir, there is no european cloud storing trilions worth in data from facebook, instagram, whatsapp, xitter, youtube and google.
America could realistically coup a handful european states using silcon valey intelligence resources alone realjtically speaking

You actually need to build factories and mines and supply chains, he could order to have every CEO not based in america shot and it would sure incentivise them, but it would do little to change physical reality and make factories go up faster.

You actually need to build factories and mines and supply chains

Lucky trump ICE is going gestapo tier and there is million of illegals being processed and ready to work during their processing period for pennies.

Again, you are assuming that in a scenario where the american markets are wiped, there wont be a shitton investors willing to fill the vacuum even if at temporary loss.
We know for a fact whatever trump does fine or not america will stand strong and profitable in 2 years.
And if he crashes the entire import market, there will be a niche for domestic alternatives to be filled

Okay we will see but I think we're staring at the end of america, before it turned into albania.

America literally cannot fall. I'm not a trump shill or anything, but they have these large plains that are perfect for agriculture and have the combined size of like 5 Frances, many natural ressources, a large population, easy access to both the pacific and atlantic oceans, no country that could ever seriously threaten them on their borders, no serious separatist groups, etc. The country is basically on easy mode, they will always bounce back

I think you underestimate america.
Dont ge tme wrong
I interpret this as a decaying empire reconfigurating itself probably to brace off for a period of uncertainty and likely eventual decay
But this is certainly far from america fall.
And if you think the situation for europe will be in any scenario better with the chinese, you are insane.
America has its own defects but at the end of the day white americans still owe allegiance to one continent (other than israel) and is not asia, africa, the americas or oceania.
Any temporary alliance europe has witb the democratic party or any other leftist coallition is just that, a temporary coallition for political oportunism.
When the dust settled liberals and communists still have a very defined opinion on Europe, its history and its legacy.

Despite all this, the US fails all the time. They didn't lose in Vietnam because they were militarily outmatched, or flee from Afghanistan because taliban rethoric was too hard to debunk. No, their people eventually get fed up with being fucked like a sunbday whore and strike at the ruling party until they're unelectable for 60 years.

There is losing an invasion of some faraway country that could never directly threaten you anyways, then there's failing a war against a country next to you that can then occupy you and rape your population both literally and figuratively. The later will never happen to them

No less destructive, their closest comparison the soviet union collapsed after a failed invasion of afghanistan. The US has already had a civil war and never fixed the underlaying disunity that sparked it in the first place.

This doesn't take into account the fact that services (which are about to get tariff'd by the EU) are a major factor in US GDP; the US is still the largest consumer market in the world. These imports are goods that Amerilards consume to maintain their gluttonous lifestyles. If goods become unaffordable then the American standard of living will plummet, regardless of the proportion of GDP imports make up.

Trump's tarrifs will only make the American economy stronger in the long run
Russia will inevitably get what it wants in Ukraine, including a large population of Ukrainians and normalized trade with the US without unprecedented economic growth.
Europe will be stuck in the corner jarring it's dick as China smirks in the background
