The tariffs discussions online and in the media have taken an awesome turn, have you noticed?



Everywhere, not just on PatNet. And the basic gist of it is:

1) The globalists and their Minions are crying Chicken Little because something for realz is happening that is bringing their means of ass raping us to an end or at least seriously limits it.

2) Part of that, they are pushing the same old bullshit 'free trade' narrative.

3) But NOBODY is buying it. Furthermore, even the least articulate/educated ppl even seem to catch some crap the globalist bullshitters post and use it to rip 'em a new one.

My X feed is filled with them. It is awesome to behold.

This one is a tad more on the sophisticated side than what I just described, but is my fav AND IS representive of what I just said:



4) We are even seeing what I call 'mini-manifestos' being posted by ppl -- myself included -- who had bought into the Globalist Bullshit now openly admitting that they were wrong and calling it what it actually is.

Example: https://patrick.net/comment?comment_id=2164721

5) I am seeing this from the Left. From the Right. From ppl I can't stand. From ppl I respect. From ppl I disagree with on certain things but agree on others. From ppl who I would normally wouldn't see on my feeds at all. From ppl not even on any feeds because they aren't online like me.

6) LIKEWISE, I see the bullshit response from ppl I either a) never heard of before or b) ppl I always knew were bought off - like Senator Grassley. The real stupid ones in my view are those like Bill Krystal who is jumping on this bandwagon simply because he hates Trump.

They are only shooting themselves on the foot.

I don't know for sure if the tariffs will work as advertised. I do believe, however, that they will work a lot better than the screaming globalists rant. In fact, I -- and all the aforementioned others -- see that they are actually in fear that they will actually work enough to fuck with their free trade scam.

This thread is to talk about that. The various other tariff dedicated threads have already started doing so. So maybe this is a little late.

But let's see..
