    Remember kids, you want to use technology to build a child porn factory in a desert? The Feds will fall over themselves to enable you

    Want to use technology to express your 1st amendment rights during a peaceful protest? You get the hammer of the pedo cabal down on your heads

      Pedo stuff has always been kind of an “in” thing for the elite throughout history. I wonder if it’s the combination of money=power=availability=decadence and that it’s something you can use to keep track of who’s good old boye or not.

      Like, hey, are you gonna fuck that kid or are you some kind of weirdo? We thought you were cool, man. Who invited the narc?

    The FBI’s quick move to investigate activists based on a far-right provocateur’s media posts comes at the same time the bureau has insisted it is not investigating the killing of Alex Pretti, the veterans affairs nurse shot repeatedly by border patrol agents on Saturday in Minneapolis.

    Remember kids - ICE agents can gun a man down in cold blood and the FBI won’t do shit all about it…

    But God forbid you warn people that these downright feral agents are coming to a city near you, the FBI will be on you like a rabid dog.

    Oh hey, a congresswoman was just assaulted with a potentially hazardous chemical or biological weapon. On the off chance you give a shit about protecting America maybe you can look into that, but it seems like you already have a full plate to deal with…

      I honestly thought the rise of the fascist regime would be more competent and subtle than this. It’s like they’re not even trying because they know their tentacles go so deep into the system that their rise to power is inevitable at this point.

        Authoritarian regimes select for loyalty over competence. Nazi Germany was a complete shit show and all the leaders were dangerously incompetent (with the possible exception of Goebbels).

          I will give you that they started out as a shit show then got their act together by means of social darwinism- isn’t that fucking ironic. I mean ICE is the Sturmabteilung by any reasonable comparison, and they fill the exact same purpose- spread terror and fear, bring chaos and disorder, until they are no longer useful to the regime, they’re street muscle.

          Then they outstay their welcome, people like Bovine become too powerful or cumbersome, time for the night of the long knives, and the SS takes over. In our case likely special forces or some enclave within the army or NSA that will get promoted up the ranks based on loyalty, just like you say.

          Jesus christ… Welp, I’m ready to fight, I’ve been ready for some twenty odd years, I am not as capable, I thought this would happen sooner, but I’m for sure more experienced and sly. Nobody around my neighborhood is going silently into the night, I’ll tell you that much.
