    @Tijgertje1987 American Cascadia voted overwhelmingly for Harris, against him. We also voted for Biden, and Clinton. It was never close.

    This highlights how the US _really isn't_ one political state, and how this is a long cold civil war where our side lost a real big round, partly because the ultrarich went _all in_ with the fash, e.g. buying Twitter to turn it into a fash propaganda and disinfo fountain.

    Hence how he tries to destroy us when he remembers we exist. He hates us, too.

    None of this means you should trust the US after this, of course. Foreign policy consensus has been shattered; you _shouldn't_, and _can't_.

    But it's like... just a little like...

    ...please don't hate Scotland for England's votes.

    It's a little like that.

    Personally I think it will be a good thing when the USA goes bankrupt and falls apart and not just for the world.

    Then the non-racist states can band together and create a better country

      This is crazy indeed and will have huge effects on the whole world economy.

      Make sure to keep tagging such posts with #EpsteinWar, as a reminder that the petro pedo has only started this war to move attention away from the #epstein files.

        @Tijgertje1987 The biggest reason I _have not been_ a Cascadian separatist is because of what the neo-Confederate states would do with a free hand.

        So be careful what you ask for, you might get it.

        (Something called the Cascadian Subduction Zone is the other big reason. Look it up.)

                Okay, if this is real, this is worse than I was expecting. I've been thinking about secondary outputs but I've been thinking way more about plastics, inks, other secondaries.

                I have been worried about products shortages but maybe not enough. I am and have been assuming that there will be preferential distribution to corporations (which obviously includes most freight) and least preference given to individuals trying to do their own work themselves - e.g., like RAM over the last several months. But I haven't thought about the price side of that.

                And holy shit it's gonna get fugly.

                So, uh, yeah.

                Maybe buy an ebike. Maybe make some plans.

                  @Tijgertje1987 Sure. And similarly, between a fascist united states, and a hypothetical broken-up united states, I will pick the latter _every time_.

                  I'd just prefer not to have to make that choice.

                    @marjolica Chain lubes aren't oil based. At least, not ones worth even a fraction of their price. (They exist but they're absolute shit tier.) Everything even halfway decent is some kind of wax-based.

                    But yes, I am stocked up even on that.

                          @SuperMoosie @marjolica Actually, good question! I've categorised waxes separately and mine are all biodegradable but I can't say they're not, I don't know the manufacturing process.

                                @moira @rpmik I'm worried about diesel engine oil. This is the second warning I've seen online about potential shortages. I bought 6 gallons of the stuff last week. It's a real shame that one idiot in Washington has to turn all of us into hoarders.

                                  Okay, if this is real, this is worse than I was expecting. I've been thinking about secondary outputs but I've been thinking way more about plastics, inks, other secondaries.

                                  I have been worried about products shortages but maybe not enough. I am and have been assuming that there will be preferential distribution to corporations (which obviously includes most freight) and least preference given to individuals trying to do their own work themselves - e.g., like RAM over the last several months. But I haven't thought about the price side of that.

                                  And holy shit it's gonna get fugly.

                                  So, uh, yeah.

                                  Maybe buy an ebike. Maybe make some plans.

                                  That reads fake to me, it's talking to franchisees like they're humans deserving of respect and information.

                                  Does not seem corporate at all.

                                    @eestileib At the same time, I'm seeing a variety of similar numbers of estimated supply shortfalls, including some people have appended in replies.

                                    So if it's fake, it's using some numbers being quietly reported elsewhere - which makes being fake weirder.

                                      Yeah I don't doubt that the crunch is coming mind you.

                                      Maybe AutoZone is less shitty to work for than the typical company.

                                        @eestileib Given how shitty _customers_ got after COVID, they're likely anticipating a similar shitty reaction and are putting on the "we're all in this together" routine.

                                        After all, being good and nice in a memo isn't the same as actually being good and/or nice.
