Articles and posts like this truly reveal the oblivious bubble people live in where they still haven’t come to terms how much their federal government has been corroded.

When did Tatsumaki change to blonde?

Honestly, I fully expect people to continue to invest their time and effort into ineffective hope and action.

Epstein files? Dud, their base was never going to care.

People resigning? By all means, tell them what positions were problematic and leave them open to replace with loyalists. In this regard, at least people have begun circulating CIA guides for people trying to subvert regimes, so at least it has not continued to the same degree as when Trump’s second term began.

Midterms? Turns out the January 6th guy is going to try to compromise them (never mind that he has persistently ignored congress and gone over them, that right now it is the weakest branch of government). I can’t even comprehend how people are falling on the impeachment line and sinker he’s laying out for them to bite on when he has fully compromised the federal agencies that would be in charge of such an investigation, never mind that he has already been impeached and it lead to nothing. Meanwhile, they continue to take no effective action, because permitting illegal unconstitutional acts peacefully is somehow better than allowing them to commit the same acts but with somewhat less bullshit excuses even when it doesn’t matter how bullshit the excuses has been so far.

Protests? Not really that effective when you hold them in like-minded societies. They would need to start happening in the red states where people are living within their bubbles to pop them out of them, but you wouldn’t have oligarchs financing the fleets of buses and logistics necessary to begin moving them never mind that the reception would not be even the same as the sort of reception they’ve been exploiting for their MAGA crowds. Protests against abusers just tend to egg them on when not only do they pose no actual resistance, but they can get away with literal murder.

If Europe had gone up against the USSR, they’d be a lot more cooked than Europe and Ukraine working to stop Russia’s advance. Stop being a schizo-nation that holds “indivisibility” above all else, US, because you no longer hold the same values throughout your territory. Maybe next time don’t ignore the canary of the FCC’s Fairness Doctrine as it is butchered to death.

Don’t get me wrong, I have little hope for opposition, if any. I can count the governors taking the threat seriously and for what it is with a single hand, never mind that they are essentially acting independently and with questionable support from the state authorities they should supposedly have authority over.

Reddit right now is banning any criticism of ICE. Reddit covered up for Ghislaine’s account (maxwellhill), even though they’ve attended very public events with her as CEO Ellen Pao revealed, and they have narcissistic megalomaniac psychopath Jibberish (deliberately mistyped) who has trained decades on how to be the best psychopath they can be on social manipulation MMOs also heading and manipulating their “conservative” subreddit, who subscribing to also seems to be a flag within the system to begin showing you subs engineered to manipulate you with their messaging. Oh, and all the other non-conspiracy theory stuff, which there is plenty of.

Continue to remain on Reddit if you enjoy seeing all your effort, contributions, and communities you belonged to thrown to the trash if you inevitably piss off the wrong admin when they are high / pissed off.

AI will reach true intelligence when it is able to tell its users they probably shouldn’t be providing them that information.

So basically another illegal act that can be thrown at him only to be ignored: manipulating evidence. Although to be fair, hard to manipulate what is already out there, so I don’t think it’s likely he will.

He should know as one. The guy is literally using the label to hide the suppression of social rights and issues behind the veil of “respect my religious right to expression”, all the while enabling global surveillance for the worst offenders. Can’t get any more antichrist than that, although it’s hard to tell with the current number of contenders we have.

whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh

it is the stranglehold in information warfare that prevents Americans from living in a shared reality that has now been cultivated and ingrained into culture for several generations.

It has honestly been a waste of time.

You are basically dismissing a pretty low bar because some other bars that are following suit are not that low. The “People from the South” are not the problem, rather, it is the stranglehold in information warfare that prevents Americans from living in a shared reality that has now been cultivated and ingrained into culture for several generations.

It’s neoconfederates come to finish the job because the Civil War never fixed the core issue and just let it sulk until America no longer had a shared reality.

The problem is that protests are to promote awareness. That does nothing, Trump thrives on bad PR as long as it can serve as misdirection for the latest tragedy. The general strike did start to do something. The biggest problem is that the Supreme Court is fully corrupt, the Executive Branch and all federal agencies are now fully corrupt, and congress is the weakest branch of government that works slow and will get hampered by the Supreme Court even if you manage to have fair elections for midterms.

Gavin Newsom is about the only state leader that is doing something effective, and Tim Walz should have been there with him during the World Economic Forum. The fact is, your federal government is corrupt down right to the core and it got this bad when things were way better. The people controlling the media, controlling the social networks that influence people, now have more say and wealth to hinder and twist the barebones democratic elements that the US had, to put dissenters like you into ineffective bubbles while they radicalize, enable, and pardon the vitriol that serves them.

The problem is that keeping you country together prevented slavery, but never defeated the confederates turned “MAGA” neoconfederates that run your federal government today, and a country that was founded and dissolved several times until it became the United States has now been indoctrinated that there are no circumstances where seeking independence is valid, even when the federal government that rules the states isn’t following its own constitution. You cannot have a democracy without a shared reality, and you cannot have a shared reality where for some the constitution is a legal foundation for the country and for others it is simply just another bible from which to read excerpts off while ignoring the rest of it.

Europe shouldn’t tell you what to do, but why would we ever deal the same way we have before with a country that proven itself to be psychotically bipolar? Do you realize that our governments cannot orbit around yours because we have our own politicians to deal with? That’s not the case with a number of states in the US, yet they are forced to now submit to a dictatorship even though they are the economic motors for the country that other states’ politicians basically live off of. Anyway, you guys do you, the US as it is now has lost a lot of standing in the world - except with dictatorships, where standing is basically just optics anyway. I understand people are doing what they can, it would (and likely will) be difficult to do the same thing here, there’s too much money going into manipulating governments and corruption could not have denied oversight at a worse time.

The core problem is one where billionaires have gone Cambridge Analytica and have destroyed and attacked our share reality - the reason why they are also ardent AI proponents, and they are operating everywhere. Honestly, I don’t have a solution, just observations. But understand that from our point of view, was it better to deal with the USSR, or was it better to deal with each of its members like Ukraine and Russia individually?

ICE probably thinks it did its job because the people in it are incapable of thinking that people can have a comfortable life outside of the US, never mind a better one. So basically, they literally helped an immigrant steal $100 million from the US and make away with it because they had an accent and the wrong skin color - which opens up the possibility of just acting like a bad caricature of an immigrant to get free deportations after criminals carry out their crimes.

You get fast-tracked from whatever consequences you would have had to just getting deported, and you didn’t even have to bribe Trump with 2 million dollars. Thanks, ICE!

Just pretending to be an obtuse moron instead of taking a comment as the criticism it is shows your shit riling instincts at work, not the validity of my criticism. Also, learn some proper capitalization, it makes your comment look like it sounds.

My beef is with Americans saying “I am an X American” when what they really mean is “I try to LARP as X at times in whatever my American bubble says they do”. But specially with African American. It’s black. Black. Black. Say it with me. Black. No negative connotation (except people’s own insecurities), just a simple oversimplified label like any other of its sort.

African American? Did they or their parents recently immigrate from Africa? Are they invested in African politics? Do they at least adopt some form of African cultural identity? Otherwise, they are just Americans.

Elon Musk is more of an African American than people judged by the color of their skin given how much he has tried to push his own agendas regarding South Africa onto this administration.

It’s more of a rich asshole oligarchs master plan. Pampered rich asshole babies that can’t compete because they were brought up in a sheltered life or because they only knew to appeal to criminal elements have to make sure democracies and accountability fails so they can create closed markets that secure their way of parasitic life. They are unwilling to adapt to a lifestyle that isn’t them being rich pampered assholes.

Then there’s the psychopaths who’ve been training in narcissistic psychopath playground MMOs, like notable conservative mods in social networks. The overlap is breaking the unspoken social contract like a cancer to better themselves, where being a sadistic narcissistic immoral asshole that can manage some semblance of loyal subservience to other likewise is a key identity trait.

Europe is a dumbass that has not been paying attention since the start of his term and who they were dealing with.

Doesn’t help they literally said they would stop producing chips and that they have done so.

Part of the problem is lack of interference, they are not regulating the cartels behind this and with Trump they won’t be because all it takes is a bribe.
