  • Billionaires like to target anyone they feel like in order to engineer society to their liking.

    This is based on the faulty premise that they are are not on the field of play, and somehow exempt from being at the receiving end of the behavior that they inflict on the rest of humanity.

    It isn't rules for thee and not for me, it's the directionality of it: We inflict, you accept.

    This is the specific reason that Billionaires want St. Luigi dead.

  • It's the frontal lobe dementia. He's perseverating.

  • For your own personal safety, never travel to the United States.

    Never travel to countries where the secret police just kidnap people off the streets.

  • If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

    With respect to healthcare, any "savings" that come from denial of care, are negated by the social cost of a less healthy population.

  • "Settlers"

    The other day, I beat the fuck out of my neighbor and they fled, and I settled in the house that was vacated.

  • You can't treat governments like they're people. The same detachment from the human spirit applies as it does to any sufficiently large corporation, multinational, politburo, royal court, whatever.

    Even if your specific nation holds your specific code of ethics and standards, there can be severe consequences to holding all other nations to the same standard.

    Unless you're a superpower, in which case you're the oppressor, simply by engaging in diplomacy.

    Given all of this, what you're asking for is for one nation to have perfect foreign policy that would compel change in North Korea. Then, all other nations would need to adopt and extend the same policy, but independently and without external pressure.

  • Holy crap is this ever a good meme format.

  • If you guys think we're getting a truth and reconciliation hearing after this administration, then you have too much faith in the dead institutions which led to Trump's election. The United States is over, after this. 100 years from now it will be obvious in hindsight

    Oh, it's never going back the way it was.

    This is clearly fascism, those are clearly concentration camps, and that's the Gestapo running around.

    You don't just walk that back.

  • It's as though you're attempting to fulfill a brief:

    Discourage pushback against the Trump regime at all costs. Amplifying the idea that resistance is futile.

    I see you.

  • Don't blow their cover

    It's a tough call.

    If enough paranoia can be generated within ICE, the more resources they'll need to divert to internal investigations, and the less effective they'll be while still having power.

  • They said they would be guardians of power for a thousand generations. The reich lasted 12 years.

    So they lasted less than a thousandth of the length of time that they chipped about.

    Therefore, we should always disregard the boasting of fascists.

    So given that it’s this year theyre going full nazi, you can expect them out in 2037.

    There are parallels, but Hitler wasn't an elderly incontinent man with dementia. While both men are fucking idiots, one of them had functioning short term memory, and was able to not shit himself.

    Also, have you given any sort of thought to how many firearms are floating out there in civilian hands?

  • I mean if you're putting yourself in an ice officers shoes, I already can't really get there in my mind.

    Whatever helps you slide past the point I'm making.

  • K2 combo: Priced at 1300€ it isn't competition for the P1S.

    I'm a P1S owner.

    You've made a bullshit comparison here, given the superior print volume of the K2.

    The cheaper product simply cannot produce pieces that the K2 can.

  • Or for a promotion right now if they find out any of their peers have any family of hired help that are immigrants. Why wait?

    Yes. Collecting evidence such as this, such that when the regime falls, the person who earned that promotion through betrayal would not be able to escape justice easily.

    You've provided an excellent example of who I'd collect as much data as humanly possible on.

  • No you just seem to have rose coloured glasses.

    The Trump regime is in the middle of committing and attempting to accelerate crimes against humanity.

    I anticipat the fall being anything but rosy.

    How many people do you expect to be left to charge?

    After the regime falls, the people left to charge will be entirely dependent on how well American citizens scrape ICE agent data.

    They are suddenly going to realize they are the bad guys and lay their weapons down? Is this your assumption?

    No. I think that they'll haphazardly try to cover their tracks. See their current insistence on opacity to verify this.

    Also, you think they are just going to ignore the person complacency? Oh it’s great you killed a bunch of people and want to finger your neighbours, why didn’t you stop them during it?This isn’t going to turn out positive for anyone trying to collect this information, unless you’re high up. The peons are just gonna get fucked in every situation.

    I can't follow the rest of your word salad. But my prediction is that the smart ones will throw the dumb ones under the bus to save their own skin.

    You seem to be stuck with the mistaken belief that the Trump regime is going to stay in power for a long time.

    You also don't seem to grasp the concept that one can compile evidence and sit on it, until such time that it can be used to help get justice.

    If you were an ICE agent, you'd be the one thrown under the bus, because you'd be oblivious to your coworkers collecting dirt on you.

    Employees at Palantir probably don't like the idea of having their personal data harvested. But they are quite enthusiastic about collecting yours.

    Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    Donald Trump is going to make the troops at his birthday parade swear an oath of fealty to him during the event.

    Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    When a person follows you and watches your every move, it's called stalking. When companies like Meta do it, it's just called collecting user data.

    Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    In the digital age, it's going to be harder for ICE agents to hide their identities than it was for Nazis trying to evade justice post WW2.

    Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    Every non US market could impose their will, simply by banning imports of products that use, or reference SAE instead of metric.

    Showerthoughts @lemmy.world

    The IOC probably hopes that countries other than Belarus, North Korea, Hungary and International Olympic Athletes will want to show up for the 2028 games.

    Getting Nicole-ed feels way more awesome than how getting scammer spam usually feels.
