Greg Dworkin quotes Acyn of MeidasTouch, who says, "Trump on Iran: We really had regime change. This is a change in the regime because the leaders are all different. I think we can say this is regime change." Dworkin responds: "A 6 year old could do deeper analysis." #Trump #Iran #war #stupidity #megalomania #narcissism #DunningKruger /4

"Both Putin and Trump clearly acted out of a kind of megalomania. Their behaviour is evil and unlawful, but rational motives are not the decisive factors. Rather, Putin and Trump are primarily concerned with their own greatness. Or what they consider that to be." ~ Robert Habeck #Trump #Putin #Iran #war #stupidity #megalomania #narcissism #DunningKruger /5

Bertrand Russell reportedly once said “the fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.” Michael Desronvil, the lone juror who voted “guilty” in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, demonstrated Russell’s maxim by saying he "didn't have any doubts" that she knew what she was doing when she killed her children. Unless the other eleven jurors were wrong in having reasonable doubts, Desronvil was too ignorant to join them in that opinion. #BertrandRussell #Crime #Justice #Insanity #Philosophy #LindsayClancy #Stupidity #Ignorance #MentalHealth

So climate denialist #Trump is going to call to prime minister #Carney, and ask what he is going to do with all the #wildfires, and threatens #Canada with #tariffs because of all the smoke that has ended in the #US.

Just witnessed two different people trying to cross the busy main road. Watching traffic, step out, oh, car coming, back, gap in traffic, step out, stop on middle line, wait for other lane to clear, run across. Both these eejits were on a *pedestrian crossing* !!! Neither thought to press the button. How the hell do you grow to be an adult and not know how the hell to use the crossing?? Numpties. Bring back the Tufty Club!!! #idiots #eejits #stupidity

"Especially in an administration so driven by the whims of one man, that man’s ignorance and unearned confidence can have a profound, even catastrophic effect. In the Iran war, we can see Trump’s ignorance operating at multiple levels from the general to the specific, each of which has its own consequences." #Trump #Iran #war #stupidity #megalomania #narcissism #DunningKruger /2

"Or what they consider that to be. That is what makes them so unpredictable. Consequently, they couldn’t care less about international law. Second parallel: their megalomania has led to massive military miscalculation." #Trump #Putin #Iran #war #stupidity #megalomania #narcissism #DunningKruger /6

"This is the first war of my lifetime that lacks even a coherent phony justification. It's also the first war of my lifetime in which the president who launched it is simultaneously engaged in a desperate search for a trapdoor through which he can escape." ~ Charles Pierce #Trump #Iran #war #stupidity #megalomania #narcissism #DunningKruger /3
