It’s pretty clear he’s had a hand in the Canyonero Cybertruck, and with Xitter’s strategy - they’re going great, right?

…Oh

…ohhhh nonono.

If the July 19th Crowdstrike incident had affected Linux rather than Windows, the impact would have been orders of magnitude worse.

People have so little awareness of how fragile the systems we rely on are - it’s not a matter of “if” - it’s a matter of “when” we’ll see a widespread incident that goes well beyond a mild inconvenience for most.

Or: Klandace Owens learns about using strong borders to keep undesirables out.

By doing things like supporting the rise of one of their assets to the presidency?

Oh

You’ve explained the mentality - people don’t particularly care to know.

Why would people put in the effort to solve a problem they’re barely aware of, and don’t understand - particularly if putting the effort in to understand and address won’t even solve that problem? If you want to add problems to people’s lives, you need to tone it all the way down.

Don’t get me wrong though - you’re fighting the good fight - and meeting people where they’re at helps, so I guess this is a decent place to start.

Oh don’t worry - Mega-genius Elon Musk will massively expand the space force with his brilliant, bargain basement equipment, so I expect they’ll finally get around to doing something about those pesky Jewish space lasers. Exercising military control over space is good for security and stability. Everything is great.

I’m not sure I could imagine a more catastrophically stupid timeline.

More fun still - prions.

Your autoclave won’t help you now, kids.

If the church is unwilling to help locally, you could try appealing to their regional leadership (though this is unlikely to work). From there, your next steps fall into 2 boxes:

Management Double-glazing, earplugs, white noise, etc.

Fighting back Rallying sympathetic neighbours sounds as though it’s not an option, so to start with, you should familiarise yourself with any relevant ordinances - if you need professional legal advice, consider bringing your sympathetic neighbour in on it and split costs. Trolling - the Satanic Temple (not the church of Satan as others have recommended) or the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster are your best bet on getting pseudo-legitimacy, and may have intervened in similar situations. Sabotage - cutting cables is cheap and fun - audio, data, power - who knows what cable does what, but trial and error is an option - bonus points for attracting rodents and and outsourcing the job to them. If you want to get creative, a HERF gun may be a viable option. Pamphlet drops to the congregation with something along the lines of “love thy neighbour - with 120db bells at x, y, z times” - don’t do this if you’re making less ethical moves - you’ll paint an obvious target on your back. If you can get access to the audio console, your effective options open right up - but this probably involves breaking and entering, so that’s probably more inadvisable than the rest of my advice.

To me, the clear takeaway is that they’ve walked as close as possible to (correct) genocide charges while pandering to the US.

…and as long as the system governing the police is a problem is broken, the police will be a problem.

You’re not wrong, but a bunch of fragile-egoed, perpetually terrified simpletons armed with state authority and a gun shouldn’t be associated with safety.

Because the Democrats are deferring to tradition while their opponents refuse to even follow rules - they’re not interested in winning, and concede to the fascists every damn time.

He was certainly the one fucking them…

Breathing - famous for being optional for those that would like to live.

Yes, there have only been around 3 people killed by them (largely because they’re shy, aquatic, and somewhat uncommon), and intervention can be made to stop them from killing you, but they’re one of the most toxic animals on the planet, and are unquestionably deadly.

Can’t have those uppity workers understanding what you’re trying to inflict upon them…

In markets the typical response to a sudden shortage is an ________ in ______, leading to a reduction in demand, as the demand shifts to alternatives (other destinations, non-consumption) until a new equilibrium is found.

That’s right - an increase in pricing reduces demand by pushing people to alternatives, reducing demand.

Thank you - that’s interesting - particularly the quote about making him uncomfortable.

I’m surprised that the shifting Overton window, which has left the Democrats far closer to Reagan than MAGA, (who are busy speed-running fascism) hasn’t swept up more Reaganites, but that boils down to naivete on my part, I think.

Whatever the case, I certainly agree that the Dems need to move from institutional neolib/neocon positions to populist left positions, but that’s the last place the party wants to go - even when failure to do so represents an existential threat to the party.

I know nothing of his work, but my immediate assumption is that he’s just a contrarian asshole that has no actual principles.

In media (as in politics), this kind of thing is almost always a product of cynical expediency rather than sincere introspection.

In the context of people that claimed to care about the genocide, yep - the voters were undeniably wrong. That doesn’t make the Democrats any more right.
