The point where we learned how useless the judiciary is, is when they couldn't even pin down Zuckerberg. The media made it all sound like "Ohhhh, Mark is getting grilled now! he's going to face time and penalties!"
And...nothing came of it. Because the judiciary is too dumb to even understand Facebook.
more consumers are using websites that rip audio straight out of YouTube videos, and convert them into downloadable MP3 or .wav files.
Noobs...
I used to DJ on Second Life and it was always a treat to hear someone else DJing and they play music that was obviously ripped from YouTube. Because they were too lazy to cut off the parts when the channel would ask for subscribers, play different sounds and they'd even rip off music video versions.
The other thing with Spotify is that it bullies you into it's subcription. Limited Skips. Ad bombardment (ads are still on podcasts so why even pay a subscription?). The app on mobile is abysmally slow with connection issues.
Bruh, stop pretending you care about something as people dying. There's no evidence to the contrary or anything. You're happily talking out of your ass to sound important. Kindly go fuck yourself.
Should've done what Snowden did. If you know what you're going to do, will lead to these consequences? Get the hell out of the country.
Because this is EXACTLY the kind of thing the American Government would've done to Snowden if he stayed. Snowden was right that he knew they wouldn't give him a fair trial.
As always with these kind of issues, the one thing I'm not seeing being brought up is the irresponsible parenting that is just as bad. Because parents stopped being parents by letting their kids get involved with these things and not having the knowledge in how to properly deal with these issues.
Except they aren't gonna and they know that. Just like the time some dozen of southern states threatened to secede when a certain president won sometime back. They're all talk, just like North Korea.
He doesn't like to lose because he doesn't have the maturity to admit when he's lost. The only thing he'll probably admit to losing is when he faces the reaper that'll drag his fat ass to a spot in hell.
Maybe it's because we're tired of old as fuck candidates. I just want more capable and sharp-minded candidates. But we're not going to get that because old farts love other old farts so they keep getting on the ballot.
The Republican party has been putting brick after brick down about how they intend to run the country. It's just that they couldn't wrap their warped brains around the fact that someone so out of touch with reality got in and figured out the hard way. The Republicans are used to having people like both Bush in W and H.W, like McCain, like Romney, like Reagan, like Nixon and so on.
They played with fire on Trump and it horribly backfired on them because they thought that they could recover after one term. But if there was one thing Trump did was that along with his bullshit, he routed the bullshit of other Republicans and had their hands revealed to everyone.
The only direction for Republicans right now is to just one-up eachother, like DeSantis tried with Trump. There's no going back because they're too prideful to dial down their craziness.
I really do wonder what exactly will happen when this piece of shit dies. Because he will one day and what then? When the MAGA-Cultists have lost their "Jesus", what then? They already hate Republicans who aren't Trump. They already hate anyone who opposes them.
Maybe they'll finally do the rational thing and hate themselves before getting the hell off this country.
This country owes itself a competent and progressive president, period. No Biden. No Trump. No GOP elect. None. Just people who care about people and care about the country without all of the petty political drama. How fucking hard is that to accomplish? It's about up there with trying to achieve world peace because America collectively works around the clock, to elect and push forward corrupt fuckers from county to state to other governmental branches.
And again, there are millions of dumbfucks out there, who think THIS is what a 'real' president is. This is a guy who would happily make his voterbase, fend for themselves in the arctic cold, if it meant he got the warmest spot.
And if you still vote for this kind of person, you're a thoroughbred fucking moron. Beyond helping.
Soon we're going to be ran out of everyone who was alive that served WWII. There are no more Civil War and even WWI veterans to help remember. Once the last WW2 veteran is gone, everyone will forget (if they hadn't already, it's been 80 years or closing on to it). Then we'll be off on people who think they know how it all went and the re-writing of history will commence.
Oh, the edginess is just bleeding through you, isn't it? Having those rebellious friday up all nighters afterschool before coming online to shitpost on the weekend? What a waste of a life.
There was a resounding chorus of "DUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" that echoed across the land as Netflix discovers this reality.
