      You know, reading the article, I think we’re just fucking headed for a depression at this point.

      History rhymes, but it doesn’t repeat. Yet, it rhymes quite fucking well. 100 years ago a Republican led US did dumb fuck tariff maneuvers and caused a depression.

      We might not have a dust bowl, but we’ll have weird climate shit. We might not have “slums”, but we’ll have tent cities. We might not have WW1, but we might have WW3.
