I would say 100% of Hexbear posters believe Trump should be immediately summarily executed. In the mean time, though, he's a great comedic subject.

If this is not your opinion of Trump and every living (or dead) American president then Hexbear is not the instance for you, folks.

I disagree, I think we should give him the Puyi treatment for no other reason than it would be really funny

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

At the absolute least he should be truman show'd

We'll put him in a large terrarium where he's told he's still president as he is subjected to more and more bizare staged scenarios just to see what he'll do. Like one day we just replace his entire staff with people who look similar. One day we just let fifty dogs in to the white house. We tell him he has to open. Diplomatic channels with the deep ones who have emerged from the pacific. Just to see what he does. The man only watches one tv channel it wouldn't be hard to control his entire subjective experience.

It's like, if the goal is the collapse of America, he's probably the best bet yeah? If shit collapses he'll probably get executed anyway by his own base of psychopaths.

This assumes that fascism isn't effective as capitalism's immune response, but I'd argue it is.

Yeah, but the competentish fascist we were afraid of turned out to be Robinette Brandon. Covid ended, wars accelerated, he's doing that faux-populism thing, new levels of state persecution of minorities, elections looking less legitimate than ever, jingoistic nationalism.
