Am I the only one who thinks social media has destroyed the spirit of the internet?

  • All technology becomes degraded over time. Enshittification is real.

    • Why does America feel the need to control the world? Do what they say? Instead of taking care of their own problems at home? When did the US become police officer of the world and enforcer?

  • This drives me nuts with the news cycle. "The US won't get involved in X". The media shows how awful fighting/revolt/etc are in X. "Why won't the US do something about the horror in X!?" The US gets involved and, of course, some civilians die. This is guaranteed in war. The media then goes "The US is awful for killing civilians in X!" The US pulls out of X. The media goes "Why has the US abandoned X!?"

  • After WW2 the US became addicted to being the world police and many other countries were happy to have the US cover the cost of their defense or income from hosting US bases. Selling arms is also big business and the DOD justifies it by saying that it keeps personnel and manufacturing lines for weapons running.

  • So we'll have a war of aggression with Iran for? We don't like them? Israel has committed more violations of national borders and laws. The KoSA and Egypt's citizens were involved in 9-11 and they are "allies".

    I.R.S. tax forms show that Mr. Boelter and his wife once led a Christian nonprofit called Revoformation Ministries. An archived version of the group’s website described Mr. Boelter as becoming an ordained minister in 1993.

  • Mr. Boelter and his wife run a private security company in Minnesota, according to its website. The company, Praetorian Guard Security Services, lists Mr. Boelter as the director of security patrols and his wife as the president. The firm’s website describes using Ford Explorer S.U.V.s, “the same make and model of vehicles that many police departments use.”
