Acting before would be best, but we’re at least a generation away from having enough people willing to engage in meaningful resistance to make doing so anything other than a fancy method of suicide.

To be clear: I hope from the bottom of my little commie heart that I’m wrong and I’ve totally misread the moment, but I don’t think I have.

Both of these statements are correct. And if you blame the locked cases on shoplifting rather than blaming the shoplifting on the fact that greedy, soulless merchants will jack up their prices in response to sunrises, sunsets, or passing fancies, then fuck you along with capitalism.

It’s a start. When they get to at least two thirds and purge all the Third Way Boomers from any positions of power they might almost be a party worth supporting again.

The same way it’s been possible in surveillance states since the invention of surveillance.

The techniques change with the tech, but nothing is infallible, including and especially the enforcers of the ruling class. But as long as you believe them to be infallible, they don’t need to be. you’ll be too cowed to resist either way.

I guess that might be persuasive to someone who’s never read any history books.

Guerillas with a home field advantage defeat technologically superior forces all the time. Drones won’t change that calculus.

Sure it is.

I mean hell, you just might become the first people on history to win their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of their oppressors. But I’m betting on plenty of violence being the only practicable alternative to the ruling class shuffling is right past serfdom and into actual slavery.

“Political power grows from the costume of a dancing frog”

Mao Zedong if he’d been a brainrotted Liberal.

We’re going backwards. If Gen Alpha pushes social norms around sex backwards at the same rate Gen Z has, then kids in High School in 2060 will be getting detention for their slutty capris showing off their wicked ankles. If the Genzers don’t manage to bring back Scarlet Letters first.

Panther patrols at every polling place. But it won’t help, because not nearly enough of the country is willing to actually fight against the things they say they consider unacceptable.

So when they see the first panther patrols being gunned down or arrested en masse, they’ll convince themselves it’s for the best and do nothing at all instead of arming up to go out and take their places.

And if that’s the case, then a fascist dictatorship is 100% exactly what we deserve.

I thought that and looked in to it. It’d take years to pay for itself (even if soda is the only thing you drink), and you also have to get a commercial ice maker and keep the ice bin on the soda fountain full, bcs none of them actually chill the soda, it gets chilled when the water is piped through the bottom of the ice bin. It’s easier and cheaper just to buy the Costco 36 packs and an extra fridge for them.

Based Bolsheviks.

'Nuff said to reveal you as either naive enough or disingenuous enough to be pushing nonsense Israeli narratives designed to improve public perception of Israel by increasing islamophobia in the US,UK, and EU.

“Hamas Supporters” has nothing to do with what you originally claimed and is a disingenuous description of people opposed to the genocide in Occupied Palestine.

“There are plenty of ADA compliant buildings, don’t get hung up on the ones that aren’t”…

Lol, guess you forgot about the state violence used to silence protestors for Palestine while Biden was President. Or does “if those kids hadn’t resisted they wouldn’t have been shot” somehow ring less mournful to the Liberal ear than “if that mom hadn’t resisted she wouldn’t have been shot”?

There’s minorities across the world to virtue signal over!

There it is. Just say you don’t think brown people are people and save us all some time.

Everyone who is opposed to difficulty sliders should be forced to spend 200 hours on each game using a controller that simulates dyspraxia by randomly adjusting every movement of the sticks by a random degree and lagging every button press by a few microseconds before they’re allowed to play it normally.

Add an additional 400 hours if they also say smug shit like this when pretending their ableism and elitism are just devotion to artistic integrity.

The devs who make games without difficulty sliders should never get their undoctored controllers back.

It would be doing almost the same thingsz but it would be less in your face about them and the billionaire owned media would be quiet about them. We’d be just as hated and disgraced, but the average USian would be once again blissfully unaware of just how hated. At least until the reality inventing machine needed to gin up support for a war, then all the constant anti US sentiment in the places the empire has colonized will be shown in 4k as if it came out of nowhere while the public hoovers it up along with insipid platitudes like “they hate is for our freedumb”.

“Misconduct” now means any attempt to hold the genocidal settler colonial apartheid regime occupying Palestine accountable for their innumerable war crimes and crimes against humanity, huh?

not-yet-convicted murderer

Using lethal force to stop a mass murderer from continuing their spree isn’t murder.

Even if he’d done it (which he didn’t), it wouldn’t be murder, he should be given a public commendation, not a jail sentence.

Fair. My only reason for not doing more is that not enough people would join me to make it anything but a fancy way to commit suicide. Someone let me know when the vanguard starts to assemble!

After the first time they did it and got to sleep comfortably in their own beds that night, it became everyone’s fault.
