I hate that there has not been a president in my lifetime who didn’t commit multiple crimes against humanity; fuck Russia, Zionists infiltrated our government and did a silent coup before I was even born. Trump is as evil as they come, and yet is the logical outcome of the depravity that is rampant throughout our government.

Hmm. Nope.

That’s what Streets of SimCity was for!

Oh, you can prove you have no value to contribute to this world? That your existence is a waste of the air you breathe?

Go ahead. But don’t expect to be praised for it.

Wonder if useless brainwashed gits like you will ever shut up. We’re not buying it.

Israel’s crimes began the day before the mandate to create their nation took effect. But, of course the natural, completely normal reaction to genocide is to blame the situation on the people who are being mass murdered.

You disgust me.

Oh, all I meant is that those of us who still have working braincells are likely to already have a very dim view of this entire situation. Like preaching to the choir, you know?

But, I’m not saying it’s not worth it. Obviously, he should be freed and treated like the human he is; and if he does go on the record, more power to him!

Just…the whole damn thing stinks. That’s all.

I see what you mean, but I don’t know that it’ll change any opinions. After all, he’s been clearly defined as one of the “undesirables”, so Magats will still find a way to dismiss his story.

But, still, every bit of momentum against Trump helps, I suppose.

Huh. I visualize a whiteboard in my head. Then I…do the math.

I’m also fairly certain I’m autistic, so… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

All your Greenland/Canada/Panama belong to us.

Ah hell no.

Real Genius. That’s where it’s at

Religion’s usefulness is way overestimated. It’s a crutch.

And what solution? Religion? Yeah, hell no.

And it’s pathetically ironic seeing a zealous reactionary projecting so predictably.

Blow it out your ass, for all I care. ～(つˆ0ˆ)つ｡☆

Religion isn’t the cause of everything you don’t like.

Never said it was. And I didn’t say religion was the source of fascism either.

Don’t excuse religion’s faults; it has been used to cause massive amounts of human suffering. Yes, it can be a positive tool. But it’s a tool that has a well documented history of repression and violence.

How many wars have been fought because of religion? Religions very commonly use fear as a method of control (Christians even invented hell just for that purpose). This makes them unfortunately well suited for fascist takeover.

Lol, no.

That sounds like a terrible way to facilitate anything other than making the conflict worse.

Running With the Demon

The SEC’s latest charges against Musk underscore the challenges faced by high-profile individuals, both in business and politics, when it comes to navigating financial regulations.

Wow. Being rich makes it harder to not break the law? Think I’m gonna go ahead and can bullshit.

That’s literally the definition of cognitive dissonance. And it’s a hallmark of literal brainwashing. Like, for real this is a common tactic in cults. I outta know, for what it’s worth, cause I grew up Mormon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

He’s one of my favorite authors; I’ll always recommend reading anything by Terry Brooks!

Have you heard of the Shanarra series? There was a TV series some years back based on the books that aired on MTV. Plus just a whole bunch of books he wrote. Anyway, Shanarra is a fantasy setting in the general style of Tolkien, but with lots of cool unique twists. Anyway, in the books he hints that the world used to be a lot like ours, but then apocalyptic wars reawoke magic while science and technology of course were lost. Eventually he did write I think two trilogies that start in a near modern alternate Earth and describes the series of events that transform that start into the fantasy setting he’d established previously.

Oh, and recently he apparently blew up the world of Shanarra for good! Like, on a cosmic scale the bad guys win I guess, so game over? I dunno I haven’t had a chance to read the last trilogy yet so no spoilers!

If you’re new to the series, he recommends starting with Sword of Shanarra. But if you want to read in the order of chronological events, then you should start with Running with the Demon.

Ever read anything by Terry Brooks? He had a series of modern fantasy books where the world is basically ending, demons walk amongst us, that kinda thing. Anyway, servants of the void who “sold their soul” were known as Once-Men. As in they were human once, but not anymore. I always found that rather fitting…

If but perfect you mean perfectly exploitative, sure. The walled garden issue has nothing to do with ease of use my friend; in fact, the whole point is to do the opposite - make anything outside the wall impossibly hard to access or use.

Ummm, the longer your posts get, the more you make a for feel like you’re getting paid dude. Wow.
