They want, so badly, to be the victims.

What fucking year is it again?

“Just say you don’t like Jews.”
Yeah that makes total sense. Obviously, if I feel like a group of people deserve to not be genocided, that means I don’t like Jews. So “liking Jews” = You must want to destroy another culture.

One of my earliest memories is riding in the car listening to a Super Grover audio book on tape. All I remember from it is grover saying “Ding! Turn the page.” I think my family was on vacation, but im not sure seeing as i was probably 3-4 years old.

Cannon judges, you say?

Uncle was a science teacher.

We investigated ourselves and found no wrong doing.

Can we crowdfund this?

You joke but Ive been visited by the billing department while I was on a gurney in the ER, to ask me how I planned on paying today. That was with insurance. God that pissed me off typing that out. Screw the US health system.

FWIW, I didn’t vote this past election. Not for lack of trying, mind you. I sent for a mail in ballot and it never showed. I corrected my address (which somehow got switched to an old address) and requested another and every time, the site would throw an error. By that point it was too late and I would need to vote in person which didn’t work because of the address thing. And before people go “well you should have made sure first”, I did. I verified everything months prior and it changed my info after…

“Yeah your fucked”

Here’s a slightly longer version of the same clip.

I wouldn’t say 40% are “fine with this”. Its more like 40% of Americans are some combination of: Uneducated by design, Brainwashed by decades of propaganda, Kept so far in poverty they can’t focus on anything but their next paycheck, indoctrinated into toxic religious communities, etc. The current state of the US, has been carefully molded and shaped into what it is now by the fascists in power.

As for people not fighting back? Some are. Not enough of course, but that goes back to keeping people in poverty. It would take me, for example, 7 hours of driving just to get to my state capitol to protest. Not to mention a couple hundred $ in gas. People working two jobs and living paycheck to paycheck just can’t do that realistically.

I hate that my country has turned into this fascist shithole and wish that more people would rally and fight. I hate that I’m sitting here making excuses for these people but I’m really trying not to lose my humanity in all this. The sad truth of the matter, though, is that people won’t fight unless their life is disrupted so much that it snaps them out of their survival mentality. Bread and Circuses and all that.

A very good point.

I realize this article is from 2023, but I hate that every photo Ive seen of this place shows the same group of heavily tatted gang members and not any of the innocent people that are being held here. Feels like a deliberate attempt to to distort the public’s concept of the people being shipped there.

Y’all remember the occupy wallstreet protests with the “we are the 99%” message. Yeah that scared the crap outta them. They shut that shit down real quick. More of that please.

Common mistake. Its actually Florida ounces.

I don’t disagree with the ai here but its worth noting that the prompt used was already guiding the result the user wanted. You can get an ai to say pretty much anything if you can phrase the question right. Emphasis mine on the prompt.

What is the likelihood from 1-100 that Trump is a Putin compromised asset. Use all publicly available information from 1980 on and his failure to ever say anything negative about Putin but has no issue attacking allies.

Trumps still butthurt that Obama got a Peace Prize and he didn’t.
