Guitar player/teacher/photographer in Manhattan.
Pro Trump and other annoying accounts blocked/muted on sight.
One year he's a teenager in a "death squad" and then suddenly he's a low wage delivery driver in the U.S.
Then he's betrayed by the government that supposedly promised to support him.
Sounds like an utter mind f**k.

Too much reality.
November 28, 2025 at 3:44 AM
You can't make this stuff up.
It give the impression of overwhelming reality:

190 THOUSAND Afghans will now have their lives upended.
AGAIN.
And none of this had to happen.

I wonder if anyone will be bold enough that a likely motive for the attack *was the Trump regime reversal on refugees* who helped america in Afghanistan vs the taliban?
Or bold enough to tell him that posting unneeded troops created a target?
That would make him TRIPLY responsible for this attack.

head shaking into eternity...
November 27, 2025 at 9:04 PM
mess.
Biden let him in.
Trump gave him asylum.
This won't be an easy "win" for anyone.
It's a lose lose lose situation.
November 27, 2025 at 8:16 PM
What a f**king nightmare this is all going to be.
C'mon food coma.....take me away.
November 27, 2025 at 7:44 PM
Wherever it all leads, (including possibly nowhere conclusive) it's a s**t show.
November 27, 2025 at 7:06 PM
All terrible, whatever the exact explanation.
Bad on top of bad.
This young woman is going to die.
And for what exactly?
November 27, 2025 at 6:59 PM
Hiring a traumatized afghani vet, trained by the CIA in order to drive across the country to assassinate national guard members as a false flag in order to justify more police state policy?
That's a f**king crazy plan.
VERY risky.
Not impossible.
But...crazy even by Trump admin standards.
November 27, 2025 at 6:46 PM
Even in this crazy timeline...this is crazy stuff.
We are attracted to conspiracy theories to simplify the chaos of the world.
November 27, 2025 at 6:32 PM
They vetted this guy.
But then a couple days ago they reversed policy on refugees.
As to whether THAT caused this shooting?
I do not know.
November 27, 2025 at 5:34 PM
He drove across the country to do this.
again, it's provocative.
But doesn't really prove anything.
If it was a personal beef against the regime, DC is a "logical" target.
Symbolic in a way that gunning down a more nearby target might not be.
If he sees the U.S. government as betraying him?
logical
November 27, 2025 at 5:28 PM
Could be as simple as we told him we are on his side (and vice versa) and then trump regime turns on him.
So he turns on them.
Could be but...who knows?
November 27, 2025 at 4:48 PM
Did this document function as a betrayal of an Afghani soldier who fought on the side of the United States against the Taliban?
And so he lashed out at a convenient target.
American troops posted by the same president who betrayed him and/or his family perhaps?
It will be interesting to know.
November 27, 2025 at 4:13 PM
I guess we'll just have to wait and see exactly what the situation is.
Regardless, I see this as an entirely negative occurrence that will have many bad outcomes.

And if I take into account the air quality meter I use (since the Canadian wildfire thing), the humble little Amazon filter improves all the metrics very noticeably.
Those include particulate matter and tvoc.
I think airborne plastic might register.

Maybe trump has had his feelings hurt by all the people calling HIM a pig?
Is that why his mind went there?
November 18, 2025 at 5:01 PM
JFK and Marilyn certainly had their flaws.
But now we get the most depressingly petty reenactments...the Troma movie version.
November 18, 2025 at 4:31 AM
Trump has been fixated on the idea of tariffs since the 1980s.
Well documented:

The ironic chef's kiss?
The SON of one of the two main reporters on Watergate just did a "story" on Nuzzi in which he is clearly trying to get with her.
He is intoxicated with how hot and interesting she is.
We humans like to think we are so sophisticated.
But we're really not.
