    The USA has torpedoed pretty much all soft power and is now obsessed with it’s hard power via the military, let’s see how that works out of them.

    (spoiler: ends badly)

      Lathe: 4chan IS burgerland’s soft power and the only soft power they need.

      Somehow people think a bunch of groyper neckbeards aura farming online is the coolest thing ever.

          I long for the day the 4chan neckbeard is treated in Europe with the same mocking disdain as the “ugly American” stereotype. Because neckbeards are just digital good ol’ boys.

              Fair enough, but given the chuddery there I hope Japan soon enough turns their ire to self-otakus…autokatus, if you will.

      Trump forgot the crucial lesson that soft power makes your enemy soft and hard power makes you hard then soft and hard collide and … uh … I guess the harder party tops?

    Everyone is discussing the headline, but I think equally amazing is that he struck FDR from the other side and replaced him with some MCU-ified aura-farming lady liberty.

    So it’s a cartoonishly partisan “fuck the dems and fuck social welfare and fighting Nazis” but he smuggles it in by putting a woman on the currency (woke!), but it’s not a real woman so he keeps his misogynist credentials and it looks like some action hero bullshit because it’s meant to play into the pro-war ethos.

      literally the funniest part, imo, of the new face is that it says

      LIBERTY 1776-2026

      like it’s basically a memorial / gravestone implying liberty died in 2026. which, lmao.

      if i could design coins, i would just put big ass numbers on one side, maybe a cool structure on the other, and put a hole in the middle like some japanese and chinese coins do because a coins with holes in them are cool and fun to play around with.

    also i guess $40T in debt isnt enough, so yeah fuck it i guess, lets lose even more money minting antiquated axial age coinage that is useless on day 1 and will be 100x more useless when hyperinflation hits in…months? 2 years, optimistically? countdown

    Not only is the message unhinged but the design is ass. Carrying two contradictory (war and peace) symbols in your hands is pretty cool and rad.

    The new eagle design is fucking lame. It doesn’t look like a harbinger of war it looks like it’s carrying groceries home but accidentally stepped on poop.

    Dawg look at the face. It looks like it’s properly flabbergasted.

    Then look at the “great seal” design. That eagle has a dignified air to it.

    Of course you think badassery is the most important thing to signal in official design: you’re twelve!

    So Trump passed the law for this in January 2021, Biden’s team did all the work on it, then Trump’s people took over, fired all of the people who had done the work, and shat this out in a weekend. Sounds about right for this admin.

      Biden: “You want Harriet Tubman on a money? My friend Strom would have something to say about that - har-har-har-har - cough-cough-cough. This mic’s off right? Anyway - if I wanted to do it - that would take years of my effort and congress, jack.”

      Trump: “I fired all of Biden’s guyz and I’m gonna do whatever I want. First thing - NO WOKE OLIVE BRANCHES.”
