The genocide has been a decades-long effort - it's only been undeniable for 11 months.

This was obviously Russian fuckery, but looking at any coup globally since WWII, the odds of CIA involvement are pretty goddamn high.

...now that I sound like I belong in hexbear, I'll see myself out.

Wait till you see the shenanigans the GOP pull in Georgia if it's swinging blue... It'll be shameless - I guarantee it.

Only behind the eyes and on the inside generally.

Probably a lot like the $80m porn filter that was cracked by a 13 year old within 20 minutes of being released - poorly.

What did science and medicine ever do for me?

If you paywall publication and peer-review, you suppress a huge amount of science that doesn't have the kinds of checks that corporate sponsorship and review introduce. This means studies of things like the dangers of CFCs, smoking, microplastics, thalidomide, and countless other things that'll kill you will never see the light of day.

There's self-hosted LLMs, (e.g. Ollama), but for the purposes of this conversation, yeah - they're centrally hosted, compute intensive software services.

Unlike regular piracy, accessing "their" product hosted on their servers using their power and compute is pretty clearly theft. Morally correct theft that I wholeheartedly support, but theft nonetheless.

Tell me you haven't worked with servers without telling me you haven't worked with servers.

I'd argue that assuming they'd even get a passing mention is overly charitable - to your point, look at all the aid workers murdered outside that particular instance that got no reporting... and the fact that people need to be told that they've killed hundreds of aid workers and journalists - the most per day of any conflict in history initially.

Well they're busy shitting all over the constitution, democracy, the rule of law, common fucking decency, common sense, voters, and the English language - the establishment clause was bound to catch some splatter.

Making your choice of tech platforms a meaningful part of your personality is cringey as fuck - irrespective of the platform.

When you're a billionaire, they let you do it

-Some piece of human waste.

Difference is that a good number of Dem voters saw Biden's issues and understood it's a choice between those issues and a fascist that'll deal the death blow to the moribund US democracy. Trump voters are just cooked.

You get one - there isn't a third option, and abstaining is a win for the fascists.

This isn't an internet thing - it's an inciting racist violence thing. Kiddie porn isn't suddenly fair game because you're on the internet, and rightly so - neither is inciting racial hatred.

If he'd stood in the town square to rally the browncoats, he'd have a higher chance of being held accountable. Pick a better example to plant your flag - consolidation of social platforms like xitter into a state of oligopoly where a handful of people undemocratically set the rules they want via TOS would be a good start.

Yeah - that's all part of the "unless enough people leave" point.

It really depends on the market though - if it's not an essential good, it doesn't need to be replaced (online games). If there's adequate competition, there's largely undifferentiated alternatives (utilities around me)... and if not, you probably don't have a choice (your local government services, monopolies, and shallow markets for essential goods).

The lawyers will only clean the city out - when the cops fuck around, it's everyone else that finds out.

Better to just execute them on the spot - you don't want them slipping out of the cuffs, then have your partner's widow asking "why didn't you just shoot them?"

People are already searched upon arrest, and I don't think most people are inclined to try to fistfight a pair of cops armed with batons, tasers and guns from the back of a cop car. It's not necessary in most of the rest of the world - are the residents of the land of the free so inherently prone to violence that they should be locked up just in case?

Unless they hate it enough to ditch a business or service in great enough numbers that it costs the business more money than they save by outsourcing to a computer, people had better get used to it.

I'm inclined to think that his brain damage was the root cause (which led to accepting the bribes donations) - the timing was right, and only the brain-damaged would be Zionist at this point.
