Sorry to be a Debbie Downer but no fucking way it's a wakeup call: the majority of Americans have no idea of the nauseating stuff that makes you feel like you're having a stroke in the middle of the twilight zone. The level of curated 100% individualized echo chambers everyone around you is exposed to is massively underestimated. Everyone is in an algorithmiclly designed, perpetually-improving news and info echosystem basically designed to keep them engaged and hooked... They DONT SEE WHAT YOU SEE... How do you wake them up if you don't share the same reality?

Oh that's the most vile and gut wrenchingly nauseating comment i read all year. Well done and well said.

Funny, i expected their shirts to be browner.

Reminder and PSA: it's never been about race, or about American versus Canadian, or about poor vs middle class - it's always ever been the Uber rich governing class vs the 99%

Putin:

Well let's just hope the tobacco industry doesn't get the good idea to cut Elon or Trump a check...

Technically with the right media campaign, the very fact that they're not voting for RFK amd the very fact that she's proposing to fund opponents would make for powerful campaign ads

Yeah... Some country's "find out" phase in history occurred only after unspeakable horrors were committed and the country was crushed jnto submission by an international coalition. So... Idk

Ikr? I was painting a worst case scenario to my spouse yesterday and added "and don't think it would be over in 4 years - the whole point is to stop democracy, so I guarantee in a year or two there will be a bullshit excuse and bam! More years of Trump as a "wartime president" or some other shit"

Not even a fucking week...

The simulation has gone off the rails, might need to reboot the server soon

Let's push it one step further and frame history since agriculture, 9500 years ago, against the upper limit of a human lifetime now, about 100 years. This would mean recorded times started only less than 100 human lifespans ago. Bleh

This man truly enjoyed a good cup of coffee.

Reminds me of the excellent book and documentary "coded bias"

But domestic ones...?

I feel like there should be a meat Canyon video version of this

That's part of the republican doctrine.

"huuumam sheiiild, diiiinnweeer..."

There is no alarm anymore..thr alarmable are alarmed. They will be for the next 4 years - or forever if it's the nail in the democratic coffin. Those not alarmed yet are either uninterrested, too far gone, or very much aligned with anything alarming this administration will do.

In other words, we're pretty fucked.

"a" ?

A fucking bunch, you mean.

No my dude, that's the bard's version
