Because there’s a global pedo ring for the rich and powerful, we’ve known this.
The world isn’t controlled by lizard people, it’s controlled by pedophiles. Always has been. Doesn’t always have to be though

You should be more terrified. And also more glad
Dumb ass was trying to act like Putin, but didn’t understand who Putin steals from and why
I reject that framing. It’s a loaded question, it’s loser bullshit and I won’t have it
I’m not saying vote every election. I’m saying win every election.
How do you win? Not by betting on the lesser evil. You do it by putting in the work to have a candidate you believe in. You do it by starting today, so that when the election comes your vote will not be a compromise.
You should feel proud of each and every vote. And yes, you should vote every time… But now is not the time for voting, it’s time to campaign
So quit with the defeatist bullshit and pitch in. You’ll feel less pessimistic when you’re surrounded by winners who work for a better tomorrow
I didn’t say “no”
I said it’s loser talk. It’s weak. Just like the Democrats. Which is why they’re the enemy - they’re in the way, and if we don’t sweep out the Schumers and Jefferies the DNC will continue to collaborate with the Nazis against populist progressive candidates
You can’t adopt their framing. Not maga’s framing, or the DNC framing. Reject it, just like I reject your premise that voting is just harm reduction.
If you want to win, you can’t talk like that. You can’t bet on “safe” candidates. You can’t settle for “not a Nazi”. You have to demand more, you have to have fire and speak of hope for the future
You’re missing my point entirely.
That’s loser talk. That’s how you lose elections. That’s how Trump won, twice. It barely got Biden in the door, because Trump was currently in office
You don’t have to be the less bad choice. You have to be the good choice. You have to stand for something. You have to have a message. You have to fight. You have to make enemies.
A Democrat will win the next election, no matter what. But in 2028? It very likely will be 4 more years of fascism if all we can muster is “well, it’s our guy or another fascist”
The only way to stop this is to get populist progressive candidates in office. In every office, in every election.
The Overton window needs to be moved left, or this never ends.
Quit with the loser talk and get involved with local elections. Go join your local DSA or phone bank with progressive victory. Help pave the way for a good candidate
No they fucking haven’t.
The uniparty thing started with like Clinton… Throughout our history, we had choices. Very meaningful ones. Maybe not the ones we wanted, but we had different courses for the county. It was always towards something
Click through some of these. This was the first rise of a fascist movement in the US, one that went on to influence Germany.
Did we hold the line and insist everything is fine? Fuck no, if you click back you’ll the Republicans held everything, the other two candidates had zero chance. Click forward and you get the largest wave of progressivism in our history, it took generations to tear down those safety nets, and they’re still not completely gone
That’s where we are now. Harm reduction doesn’t win, movements win.
Fuck it, I’m just calling her Taco Belle from now on
Is their media any good?
I’ve honestly been convinced that doing evil melts your face like the dark side of the force
Take Caroline Levitt… She’s so young, and yet in months her face has started to droop. On the other hand, you have people like Mike Johnson and JD Vance… They have the sith eyes, you just instinctively know they’re inhuman
Well, the cars themselves weren’t racist though
Progress!
What do you mean? Any AI can replace any knowledge worker. You just fire the worker and say AI will do it, easy
Look around… Running a corporation isn’t about doing things or making things anymore, it’s about the stock price. And consulting companies have convinced investors that layoffs are so hot and rich
If you haven’t noticed, the quality of everything has been plummeting since COVID. They don’t care about tomorrow problems, just extracting as much wealth as they can before it all comes crashing down
I mean… They kind of didn’t though
In major cities, sure. Even smaller ones will have Indian places. But they’re proportional to the amount of Indians in an area
Because there’s a big difference… Everyone can go to a Chinese restaurant and confidently order. Everyone knows what sushi is, even if some people don’t eat it. Thai foods are less known, but the menus are very Americanized, so you go once and you get the idea
I know the good Indian restaurant back home, but I only know the dishes by color. Lots of naan and wet dishes… They were good, but I couldn’t tell you what they were. And if the sign says Indian food, I don’t know what they serve. So I’ve only been to the one place
Vindaloo and curry? That is everywhere, but I’ve never had an Indian version of it. The British spread vindaloo and curry spread itself
I think Chinese food spread was more organic, they helped each other immigrate, shared recipes, and acted almost like a franchise in how new restaurants were chosen in unserved areas and given a general playbook
And then the Thai government did it more formally, Korean culinary movement copied the success (or maybe the other way around)
But that’s a response to “they took our jorbs!”. It’s a reframing for immigrants targeted at the reactionaries. But it is the reality - immigrants, particularly undocumented or agricultural visa recipients, are the bedrock of our society
It’s terrible that they are in such unethical conditions. It’s terrible that they have a carve out for child labor for seasonal farm workers. The entire power dynamic is akin to indentured servitude at best
But what we have to do is give them legal status and protections first.
They are not working the worst jobs because that’s what we tell them they can be, they’re working the worst jobs because they’re extra exploitable
Come on, resistance matters. Even if it’s just slowing it down slightly, it affects people in very real ways
It’s ok to take the little wins
Remind them what, that Trump says it’s good? There’s nothing to be gained there
No, just document it. Report on it. Ask the Democrats what they’re doing to stop it. Challenge Republicans to make them comment about the horrors to come on record
But the white house? They’ll add nothing of value, better to keep asking the questions that make them nervous
I mean… It is genuinely hard to work for someone not evil. Let’s say you’re an AI engineer… Meta is probably the best because most of the non-corporate LLMs flow from there… But they’re also using it to build personalized echo chambers, which is horrible
OpenAI is at the top and Microsoft has shown every inclination to make it a monopoly, so I could understand wanting to work on competitors
You could go smaller and work somewhere like anthropic, but then you don’t have the resources to be on the cutting edge (depending on your specialty)
I blame people who buy Teslas more than those who work at Tesla at this point. Especially when they slow walk the bad things…I mean, Twitter would probably be less Nazi if more talent stayed onboard to resist institutionally
You can change jobs if the new one also sponsors you, and it’s my understanding that xAI tapped people from Tesla, but I might be wrong about that
Anyways, what’s happening sure looks like malicious compliance to me… It’s really not that hard to get an AI to list far right talking points, it’s just hard to bake it into the model
So you have people that made a pretty good model, but also can’t figure out basic AI infrastructure? I find that very hard to believe
Because there’s a network of powerful pedophiles that control most of the world. America and Israel are both fully under their boots
It’s that simple
