Not voting has the same consequences, so those aren’t too smart either.

Gen Z are entitled like boomers, but with almost no economic prospects outside their parents.

Which makes sense, since loads of Gen Z were priced out of a future before they could even start earning, so there’s no point in giving effort

At least Trump will guarantee Gen Z nearly unlimited well paying work if they’re interested in bounty hunting immigrants and tracking fertility

But doesn’t Trump hate China?

Obviously he’s extremely succeptable to bribery/flattery etc so he could easily “art of the deal” Taiwan off to China.

Personally I feel like he’s definitely having a vindictive king renaissance so I’m expecting a lot of inflexible decisions made entirely on impulse - because that’s exactly what the people want.

Don’t know if I see him going to war with China as getting bribed is better than fighting and potentially losing. Plus, fighting implies you don’t have enough power/influence to win without fighting and Trump is all about projecting power.

If he does want war, I wouldn’t be surprised to see an American foreign legion formed out of the 20 million immigrants he wants to deport

Women are easy, natural, targets for Conservatives.

Beyond that? Disability, Left handedness, a grandfather who did yoga once, someone wasn’t enthusiastic enough during the 2 minutes hate, they’ll never run out of outsiders to invent and demonize!

Isn’t the “legal justification” they used not including ‘Federal officers’ on their list of ‘category of persons’ allowed to be present during voting?

So they intentionally passed an (illegal) law that forbids the DOJ from overseeing the election process because oopsey daisy we totally didn’t mean to write a law that breaks the law!

But if you could honor our intentionally broken law while we’re committing the specific crimes you are here to prevent, that’d be super lawful of you.

“All white ppl look the same!”

-NK, probably

A good chunk of Trump’s cancer is caused by terrible left wing policy.

I hate Trump and everything about the far right, but I can understand people falling in love with the idea of a strongman who will cut through bullshit and do what people want.

The left is supposed to mitigate income inequality, and make life good for their citizens.

Both left/right idealogies are entirely owned by corporate interests across the globe - this is the crux of the entire issue.

The problems facing the middle class are entirely artificial and intentional. There are a myriad of reasons, but the end result is that we have one societies/laws/reality for the wealthy, and a completely different set of rules for the population.

The left promises to solve everything with equality and the right promises to resolve everything with hierarchy.

Neither idealogy has any intention of doing anything but funnel as much money/power to big business until their political careers are done.

The obvious difference is the “Right” idealogies are objectively bad for everyone but the ultra wealthy. Unfortunately being ultra wealthy gives you the ability to own national anti-reality propaganda networks.

Still a tough line to toe.

South Korea can undoubtedly roll North Korea. But North Korea + China + Ruzzia is much harder to contend with.

NK is benefitting from actively trading with first world economies in a meaningful way and will likely be heavily updating their military and spycraft capabilities.

This will blow back way harder on Israel than America.

Ignoring all politics, logistically this war is a rounding error in the Pentagon’s budget. America can and often does absolutely anything it wants to anyone at any point in time - and the only thing stopping it is how it feels about a subject at any given moment.

Israel is tiny and surrounded by enemies who they are pissing off.

For the record I am entirely opposed to Israel committing genocide and America funding it.

Go into the office and waste every resource you can.

Plug in a fan + heater + aquarium + massage pad at your desk and leave everything on constantly even when you leave

Print every email and throw it in the trash.

Make coffee 50x a day and pour it down the sink

Flush a whole roll of TP every hour

Leave sinks on in the bathroom

Use entire tubs of soap to wash your hands

Turn on the microwave for hours at a time

Heat/cool office thermometer to force HVAC into overdrive

Open new browser windows until your computer crashes and repeat until the network goes down

Company wide meme emails that everyone participates in (team building) that crash servers and dominate inboxes

Pour sugar/crumbs everywhere so there’s pest problems

Accept every phishing email

Put USB sticks found on the ground into your work computer

Open the door for strangers who want to get in the building without a badge

FORM A UNION

(nuclear option) introduce bedbugs to all your bosses offices

I fully hear you and agree.

Every 5 days there’s a software update, for something that just changes one or two things slightly - but rarely if ever is it an improvement.

Oh, you want to do this simple thing you were able to easily do 3 days ago?

Now you have to change 4 nondescript settings, use 3 separate hotkey commands, watch a YouTube video, and troubleshoot for hours to get a once basic function to preform correctly.

I’d bet that the AI system will be used exclusively to identify + paywall things you’ll want/need to use your phone.

seems like you want volume control, based on your history you want 1% volume. Subscribe to" basic functions" package to unlock a volume option. Upgrade to “basic functions premium” for up to 5 volume adjustments a week!

Still not enough AI control? The “basic functions unlimited” fully unlocks both volume buttons and for a limited time unlocks the spacebar for 5 minutes an hour from midnight to 6am!

Not yet we’re not!

Still plenty of nature to kill before humanity cannot survive in any capacity without corpo supply chains.

If you’re breathing free air, drinking real water, and actual food can grow out of the ground we’re comparably in cyber paradise given how much worse AI spycraft and corporate ownership will worsen everything exponentially for the non-connected over the next decades

Wtaf is going on in the US lately.

Looking at breaking up Google

Going after Visa for monopolizing debit markets

TD slapped with a penalty worth more than the crime (for the first time ever?)

Going after market manipulators

I’ve never seen the law applied to the wealthy in a way that might actually influence future behaviour (and not for the worst??!)

I agree, and I can’t believe I’m saying this - because the Republicans are unequivocally going full Nazi, BUT

Republicans are doing crazy Nazi shit all the time. Yeah, the date has significance to American Nazis, and normally anything Nazi would have been publically perceived bad pre-Trump.

Even then, the Nazi accusations are often poorly executed and come off more as “EvErYoNe On ThE rIgHt Is A nAzi” and less “You are being categorically lied to, and if you vote Republican you will be irreversibly enslaved by the business class”

But we are so far past Republicans dancing around Nazism that complaining about sharing a Nazi date/location isn’t going to make anyone clutch their pearls and see clearly.

Trump and the Republicans going full Nazi doesn’t have much impact to the American population because

1. There are no consequences to being a punk ass Nazi bitch if you’re Republican, it’s actually a pre-requisite now.

2. No one is producing content to accurately show the Republican path to Nazism, the parallels, the significance, and the danger. No mention of union riots and former working conditions in the US, nothing.

3. Both political parties are entirely beholden to the donor class who is warming up to Nazism, which is why the Anti-Nazi rhetoric is only done in small, insignificant doses instead of a competent national Anti-Nazi campaign so Democrats have plausible deniability that they warned the public.

People aren’t threatened by Trump and will vote for him because America doesn’t tolerate traitors, and if anything Democrats said about Trump is true, surely he would be Jailed in Guantanamo Bay by now.

Total lack of consequences = evidence of innocence, so anything you say against Trump is hand-waved away because if anything was wrong/bad it wouldn’t be allowed.

This logic made Trump untouchable so far.

if only the people of florida werent so ignorant as to the actual causes of their problems.

Knowing you are an idiot doesn’t stop you from making idiot decisions in the future.

Not counting their inability to comprehend who their real enemies are - yeah the cause of your problems is Republicans

Third parties in the US are almost exclusively tools for siphoning votes off the main parties.

But if you still think government runs the show you are out to lunch. Corporations have been dictating policy for a long long time in the US, and the laws are only making it easier for corporations to directly own politicians.

The only one who will change this is if a huge amount of voters organizing and demanding change. Like current levels Republican stochastic terrorism, but for things like healthcare, education, workers rights, consumer rights etc.

Corporations spend a lot of time and money taking these things away from us, and we’ve been generally watching the middle class disappear for decades.

It will take sustained, active, pressure, and vigilance from the people to make corporate money is not worth it and politicians make decisions based on benefitting their constituents.

Unfortunately, nowadays most constituents only care about making life difficult for others instead of better for everyone including themselves.

Yeah, but you put a quarter in their shopping carts guys! What an organized and crime free society guys.

Their subway is super clean guys we can’t compete with freedom like that guys.

Guys, Tucker said groceries are cheaper than America, guys. We’ve been duped into thinking life is OK guys. But also lowering prices in America is also communism guys. Russia has literally the least communist history guys, America is the real Marxist guys.

Trust me guys, American freedom has nothing on Ruzzian freedom guys. All of the benefits with literally 0 drawbacks guys, it’s insane how little consequences there are to living in Ruzzia guys.

There’s nothing more free than a brutally oppressive police state run by a dictator guys, it’s the secret recipe for freedom guys. Trust me bro.

More weird than strange if you ask me.

That fascist sure group is a really weird bunch!

They’re ensuring their money keeps flowing. This isn’t about altruism - it’s just their Greed incidentally benefits us.

ISPs are trying to mitigate exposure to lawsuits, prevent costly tracking and tracing responsibilities, and make sure customers can keep paying instead of losing their internet privileges (and their internet bills!)

That peasants like us find this favorable is an unintended bonus.

Fuck John McEntee and anyone who had anything to do with project 2025

Insane how we’re forced to be distracted with news media focusing on lies about immigrants eating pets instead of hammering Republicans about project 2025.

They are 100% full steam ahead, end running on all fronts relentlessly as we speak.
