Tariffism

A political strategy using import taxes to exploit and/or coerce a country by putting them in financial distress.

Tariffism

The strategic use of economic fear, threats, and surprise import taxes by a government to coerce compliance, punish dissent, or protect fragile national egos—often under the guise of patriotism, fairness, or “leveling the playing field.” Unlike terrorism, which weaponizes explosives, tariffism weaponizes spreadsheets and supply chains, inflicting psychological and financial trauma on domestic populations while claiming to target foreign bad guys.

Compare:

Terrorism: instills fear through violence

Tariffism: instills fear through rising prices and economic whiplash

Note:
Practitioners of tariffism are often immune to consequences due to their immunity from basic economics and their ability to print more money or blame foreigners.

When the administration slapped a 400% tariff on toothbrushes from Luxembourg, citizens began stockpiling dental floss in terror—a textbook case of tariffism.

Tariffs

Waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait...

Hym "So... If Trump can just TELL automakers NOT TO RAISE THEIR PRICES in response to the tariffs... Why... Aren't you doing that for the INFLATION? If you can tell business not to raise their prices... Tell these cocksuckers PRICES DOWN NOW! And then you tell the tech retards to PAY FOR THE AI THEY ARE TRYING TO STEAL... And, if they don't, execute them immediately. And then find that psychologist who lied about rare forms of schizophrenia... MURDER HIS ASS TOO because he is only able to lie about rare forms of schizophrenia because he knows who I am and he KNEW those kids were going to get murdered... Because I TOLD HIM THEY WERE GOING TO DIE 10 YEARS AGO."
