No King Rallies in America.
Trump has been compared to the Dictator King of Tudor times, Henry 8th. Henry the 8th's court was full of gossip of who was in and who was out when it came to the king's favour. The king was probably mentally unstable, with fits of anger, and changing his mind or being inconsistent. People remained loyal to him out of fear, a court of yes men and women. People were afraid to tell the king the truth or the error of his ways lest they upset him. The same system seems to operate in the Court of King Donald. Trump is a self-obsessed man who wants all eyes on him, who lashes out when things don't go his way, a little like the Tudor King.

When the Payment Doesn’t Arrive:
Third party payment processors have become the invisible infrastructure of the modern economy. Gig workers, small businesses, creators, and independent contractors rely on companies like PayPal, Zelle, WhatsApp Pay, and Stripe to move money quickly and reliably. These platforms sit between the worker and their income, and they hold extraordinary power. When they work, they make life easier. When they fail, the consequences fall entirely on the individual.

Of Course Trump Looks Up To Jackson
Andrew Jackson, the 7th President of the United States (1829–1837), was another of our presidents who owned slaves. He has often been cited by former President Donald Trump as an inspiration, with some observers noting similarities between their leadership styles and controversial policies. Both are accused of displaying racist tendencies in public, both wanted a Cabinet of loyalists, each had a Department of War (Trump’s Defense Department was renamed to this in late 2025), and each had accusations of infidelity by Cabinet members in that Department, causing public scandals. Unlike Jackson, who ran his administration like the military commander that he was, Trump lacks military experience.

THE GREAT AMERICAN EXORCISM: MASKING DESPOTISM IN THE CHURCH OF CAPITAL
I. The Neon Purgatory of the Now There is a smell in the air these days, and it isn’t just the scent of cheap cologne and burning diesel. It’s the ozone of a dying circuit board. We are living in Mark Fisher’s nightmare, a state of Capitalist Realism enveloped in smoke so thick you can’t even see the exit signs. Fisher famously warned that it is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism, and we have taken that psychic trap to its ultimate, blood-soaked conclusion. Because we cannot conceive of a world beyond the market, we have decided to monetize the apocalypse itself. This is why you see the "Christian Nationalists" currently screaming for Hell-fire in the Middle East; they aren't seeking salvation, they are cheering for Armageddon in Iran as the ultimate market exit strategy. We’ve turned the end of the world into a subscription service, and the "faithful" are just waiting for the final installment to download... because they are the only ones good enough to be saved from the global fire we just created.
