That's not what kafkaesque means.
And they only way to think that it does is if all you've ever read of him is Die Verwandlung

what will this word connote in 50 years?

>>9365465
Believe me, Trump will age into a revered elder statesman. remember how everyone thought W Bush was an idiot back in the day? Even Reagan, the 2nd rate actor/senile old fuck became a national hero, what makes you think Trump can't do it?

do you think trump can handle all this shit? north korea, syria, russia, china, etc

>Greenianesque

>> No.9365524

>>9365486
There's nothing to 'handle' just a simulacrum within simulacra, kinda like those nestled (((Russian))) dolls. staged 'war crimes' lead to phony missile strikes. If you are going to attack the enemy, why tip them off ahead of time?

A CGI Trumpmask can be superposed into the face of an actor reading the agreed upon script in real time. no one would know the difference. This is not world history, this is an elaborate theatrical representation with occasionally real blood and gore. All changes to the script have a retroactive effect.
