  • Hey, I'll give him some props; this is when you should resign, not halfway through a campaign for reelection. Now Liberal at least has a chance to find someone new to beat Pierre, since Trudeau had no shot.

  • The U.K. and the E.U. are gonna have to figure out something to do against Musk, because now that the U.S. has fallen Musk and the rest of the manosphere are focusing their attention to supporting far-right groups abroad. Personally, I think banning Xitter is the easiest and most effective first step for them to take, as it will greatly limit Musk's ability to control social discourse in these countries.

  • Yeah but utter destabilization isn't the goal. A complete collapse of the current power structure would just allow corporate interests to assume direct control in the name of peacekeeping. The goal is to use my wishfish to get us toward an egalitarian society, not plunge us into chaos. Have to destroy the old ways while guiding to a new way.

  • We can all agree that Supreme Court justices shouldn’t face threats of physical violence.

    Can we? I'm pretty sure if the U.S. is going to continue forcing children to face threats of physical violence, a corrupt Supreme Court Justice should be able to grow tougher skin. Or hey, maybe don't be such a corrupt piece of shit that people start wanting to test the limits of your lifetime appointment.

  • Hell if I know. My hometown was a sorta nexus of misery like Derby though, and I'm the only one I know of from my graduating class that actually got out. So I'd guess they've either already died in Indiana, or are on the path to dying in Indiana, and I couldn't imagine a worse fate for them.

  • I mean, 2 and 3 are also largely a deconstruction of 1. The Matrix is an incredibly well made movie with really stupid themes. 2 and 3 do an excellent job highlighting why stuff like "Neo is the Chosen One" is fundamentally bad storytelling, but there were a lot of audiences who loved The Matrix fully and completely. I can understand why those people were disappointed when 2 and 3 weren't just more senseless violence in black trenchcoats, but ultimately the series wasn't made for them.

    IIRC, 2 and 3 were meant to be one film, but it got split due to studio meddling. I wonder if there is a mega-cut adapting the whole trilogy into a single runtime.

  • Light Yagami could get pretty elaborate with what he required people to act out in a Death Note, but I'm not sure exactly how to destabilize our globalist economy with only one page. It likely starts with using the leader of a capitalist country to kill a large swath of it's billionaire class at once, then forcing said leader to support the nationalization of healthcare, food production, transportation, mineral extraction, etc before trying to influence other capitalist nations to take the same path for the rest of their life before heart attack inevitably gets them. The problem is that I really think you only get to write this for one leader, due to the space requirements. I guess as long as the assumption that all the world's ills stem from America it's fine, but isn't Murdoch currently operating out of Australia? Missing even a few key billionaires with the initial murder leaves a lot of powerful opposition.

  • Serious question, why should they have cared? The Dept of Justice didn't care. US Attorney General Merrick Garland didn't care. President Joe Biden didn't care. If anyone actually cared, Trump would be in prison for treason, but the U.S. clearly has a two-tiered justice system that lets you engage in a coup as long as you're considered wealthy enough.

    Both sides called each other a threat to democracy, and neither side actually backed up those claims. When the Dems tried, their donors got mad at them and they shut up, because being rude to fascists is a hard line in our country. Voters saw this and decided it was all smoke, so they focused on what each candidate was promising them. Harris promised 4 more years of a status quo that was hurting them, and Trump promised change.

  • because the goal isn't for more transparency in their service, CTA is mismanaged trash rn. It's to have less transparency, so less people realize that the delays between trains still have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, and likely never will.

  • I mean, duh? There's enough vile Americans that Trump was democratically elected twice after being known as an out and proud child molestor and rapist.

    That doesn't mean the patriarchy hasn't caused issues for other parts of the world though, just that America can be viewed as its end goal.

  • C'mon, you can't say no matter how its cooked. You sure I can't interest you in some fried asparagus with a cheese-based sauce? Yeah, any nutritional value you're getting out of them is pretty much ruined, but who cares.

  • Why are you saying this in jest? Late-stage capitalism is a civilization ending event, like an aggressive cancer upon our collective reality. It will consume everything we have to give it and demand more in the pursuit of infinite growth.

  • I mean, depending on what part of the U.S. you are in, the water you're drinking might not actually be clean.

    You shouldn't have to preface your statement with anything, living conditions in some American states are legitimately comparable to third world impoverished nations.
