Yup. Shit's gonna get fucking wild as the gUStapo is born.

Like pretty much every character in the film, the character Trump is cosplaying as has been driven insane by an insane war.

He tried to use Born in the USA as a campaign song. Media literacy isn’t MAGA’s strongest suit.

I dunno, his government tracks so far with what I remember of the film.

1. Feeling of Endless Hell
2. Waiting for it to be over
3. Everyone dying or in pain, in some cases at the hands of their own stupidity
4. Pretty much the only person who gets what they want is the one main character leading the thing
5. Swamp

One time there was a heat wave in my city, and I don't have air conditioning at home. The movie theater was playing apocalypse now, I think it was the directors cut. It was 3 hours long so I bought a ticket because I wanted 3 hours of air conditioning. I had no idea what a great movie I was stumbling into! It was about war and how horrific it is.

I could believe it, but my pessimistic interpretation is that whoever made this meme has seen it and doesn't think Kilgore is a monster.

Every single character in that movie is a piece of shit. That one's a vainglorious piece of shit.

Rule number one. Don’t fuck with Mexicans. Viva Mexico cabrones!!!

Not going to lie you had us in the first half.

collapsed inline media

It's real

Sorry for your sanity :3

I understand you, and I feel the same. But let's be real. We both know it's true. It's outrageous, it's dumb, it's aggressive and hateful, that's exactly up his ally.

Him v Lincoln , the ex wrestler who fights till he's burger?

Insurrection is grounds to declare martial law, remove those in power, and halt elections. He has to push hard enough to force people to fight back.

Russian asset, Agent Krasnov, declares war on a major American city.

No, we're good. I know some people from the U.S., who still think nothing is wrong with the government. So we got to let the dumpster fire burn out a bit more.

It's only going to get worse. The right would rather elect trumps lifeless corpse than someone with any decency

Because it's a big democrat stronghold. And he's racist.

Probably several real reasons... and i think he just throws shit at the wall until he finds something that sticks but this one stuck because among his followers it ticks several boxes...

He already did a dry run in Los Angeles, literally chasing harmless day laborers through Home Depot parking lots. Newsom (Cali Gov) made it more difficult by trolling him on social media. (I realize how insane that sounds but he just has the temperament of a teenage boy). So he is probably thinking of something even more insane to do to us in Cali or at least knows he's playing with fire.

New York he is lowkey working on a deal with Cuomo (former mayor now running as a spoiler candidate to the socialist who beat him in the primary election).

Chicago is an easier target. The only other city I've heard him float is New Orleans (which is unlike any other city I've been to in the states for its amazing seafood, bars, walkable areas, music, eg culture... notably Black culture)

His mostly rural base loves it. Not only is it cities that they have been other-ing and blaming [insert South Park - They took 'er jobs meme] for their problems their whole lives. It is also abuse of minorities. So it is like saying "you know how you complain about cities and they happen to be brown and black. Im going to fix that problem and it just so happens to be by going after those people who don't look like you. wink wink, nudge nudge"

Chicago is the next city ICE is set up to ramp up operations in. Chosen probably because it is a liberal city with a diverse population.

Chicago is a major democratic leaning city infamous for its association with lawlessness and organized crime. Reality is that Chicago cleaned up with the other cities but it maintains a rambunctious similar to LA and Philadelphia. But it's still got a local culture of early 20th century gangsters like Al Capone and other Italian Americans with submachine guns.

The entire great lakes region that includes Chicago had a pretty rough time from the 70s-00s, with other cities in it including Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, and Toronto as well as tiny hellholes of deindustrialization like Gary.

Chicago is also notably a very black city, especially by Midwestern standards. During the great migration (when a bunch of black people left the rural southern areas their ancestors had been enslaved in and went to urban areas largely in the north and west), Chicago was one of the major destinations as there was a lot of work that didn't involve farm labor.

So yeah mocking Chicago sometimes will have racist implications (though this applies to any great lakes city when compared to the overwhelmingly white rural and suburban Midwest).
