No, they don’t actually they are HUGE. A lot quite ornate. They’re great places to live, I know. I have.

You don’t look illegal bro. It’s not illegal to be you.

He’s Talking about regulations on Big Tech in terms of data collection, monopoly and social engineering. We need to remove these people from the sphere of political influence. Break up Alphabet, Delete Meta, tax wealth not work.

“I have never lived in, occupied, or been near anywhere that employs this type of housing. But, here’s a list of stipulations I have decided are absolutely necessary based on nothing other than what I feel former soviet satellite states are like.”

The image was about how peoples need for “security” can grow to destroy their basic freedoms. You just ruined it.

Or you could try to develop an actual skill to express yourself, you know like a real person.

You make one point, over and over. So, I refuted it, with a single point. If you don’t understand, that, well… think of it like this.

There’s no value in explaining spark plugs to my dog, but she can still hang out in the garage with me while I change them.

Spoken like someone who cannot speak a single language outside of American English, who has never met a Western European. We are not a monoculture.

I don’t care to convince them. Every opportunity we have to counter the false narratives meant to divide the working class, is an opportunity for you, myself and everyone else provide our comrades who have not yet woken up to the programming the ability to:

1. Recognise agents, bad actors and bots.

2. Give them the tools to counter them and drive home the message of unity. We need to stop playing party politics and realise the struggle has always been up vs down, left vs right is just how the owners of our media push us against eachother.

Thank you for contributing to the wider conversation.

Europe is absolutely not as you describe. That’s what the media feeds you in North America.

1. Kids weren’t being forced back to labour in factories by the CEO of Amazon -see Florida.

2. State Prison populations logarithmically dwarf federal prison populations, overwhelmingly Red States With Mississippi, Lousiana, Oklahoma, Idaho, Arizona, Texas, Georgia as the magnificent 7. All notoriously with a racial bias. No democrat president would have made the move or received the support necessary to dismantle private prisons at this point in history. What Trump is doing is not legal, you cannot rule by executive order, the judiciary are just all bought or neutered right now.

3. Biden’s white house was about economic recovery because that was what was most important after Trump racked up the deficit. America enjoyed the lowest impact of inflation with the most economic regrowth of any country in the world after COVID. Things are significantly worse elsewhere. Inflation was going down under Biden, but social media gaslit the nation into believing it was way worse and once again that Trickle down economics would fix it.

4. Crashing and burning the global economy was Big Tech’s goal, under Biden the judiciary ordered Alphabet to break up Google’s monopoly. It was just too late to happen at that point. No other government gave enough of a shit about our personal privacy and freedom to attempt to break the single largest corporate spy network in the history of existence. The democrats didn’t do everything we wanted them to, that doesn’t mean they didn’t make some very important and historically significant moves.

5. There was no presidential immunity until the very end of Biden’s presidency at which point he was in noticeable mental decline and there was no supreme court stacked in his favour.

It’s not black and white, is all I’m saying. The constant self-criticism is what splits the Democratic party, reduces the turnout and allowed corporatism the opening to advantage themselves. We’re lucky Trump still has the energy to rule without having the mental faculties to let others call all the shots. Sometimes, better than literal fascists is enough.

Flouting that you’re incapable of reading a small paragraph of text in order to engage in good faith discussions does not bode well for our future.

I said I agree with you. I never said anything about moral superiority. Why do you create conflict with those that are actively agreeing with you? You just serve the purpose of those that you claim to be against.

I mean absolutely no offence in this response, but if I might articulate myself further. The enemy of progress and the cause of this most egregious regression in The United States is division. Holding idealised standards of how political parties should be in the current political climate, is disingenuous virtue signalling and disregards how politics work(s)ed in America with AIPAC, corporate lobbying and a two party system of First Past The Post elections. I am not telling you you’re wrong, quite the opposite. I agree with you. I am instead asking you to contextualise your (valid) outrage into the broader scope of American politics. If we do not defeat the orange menace, there will never be any progressives holding office, ever. You are right to want further change, but right now our division only serves the ruling class. The fact is, at this moment in history, you cannot get elected to any federal office of the United States without the support AIPAC. It is wrong, it is unjust, it serves the purpose of warmongers, I understand. As does the act of poor Americans purchasing cheap clothes imported from China. Yet, there is no choice for the poor who rely on them to clothe themselves and their children. I see you comment a lot and I am glad to see that, because you obviously care. I recognise your frustrations with Centrist Democrats. Of course they’re impotent, they themselves are multimillionaires, just trying to hold on to their investments and not have their families disappeared. Spineless. Democrats are always targeted for their failings, both by republicans and from within the party and support is often split because of it. While republicans disregard all criticism and stay united through their hatred and obfuscation of the truth. They live with this absurd cognitive dissonance and they still won, because they are united. You can be right about everything, without also serving the purposes of our enemy. If they prevail, when they finally crush every last one of us. It will be because there was no united opposition. It does not matter how correct you are today my friend, being right won’t matter. “I told you so” means nothing in Hell.

I agree with the sentiment, but we need to educate and unite. Not sow further division amongst ourselves.

Horseshit, They’ve always just spied on us and paid the fine. Fuck Cuckerberg and his malware ridden profiling apps.

What are your traditional conservative values? What are we conserving by not allowing gay people to get married? What are we conserving by denying man-made climate change and refusing to invest in green energy when it is so obviously and undeniably the future? What are we conserving by encouraging women to be thoughtless, subservient housewives? What are these core values that are so valuable?

Smart Technology has always been about removing our ability to effectively communicate with nuance and assess reality that’s what it’s for. Autocorrect so you can’t spell, google maps so you can’t find your way out of a paper bag without them. People’s lexicons have diminished, substantially since 2007. The quantity and variety of expressions used have dropped off majorly. All this connection with people all over the world and we use it to maintain quasi social relationships with people we hardly care about. It’s a joke.
