That’s a pretty good point, and I agree. It was “This is a weird and sinister mystery!” and that’s pretty much it.

I hope it at least builds some attention momentum for others with maybe more assets or connections at their disposal to hone in on what’s really going on here and bring it to light.

This is good reporting. I’m glad there’s still people who will notice this bizarre kind of thing and start digging.

Something is truly mind-boggling here, like where he’s getting all this money from.

This is disgusting.

Irritatingly unlikely, sadly.

Both parties have spent considerable time batting around the 2nd Amendment as a toy in their game. A polarizing empty-promise point with emotional strings attached, so now all the blowhard bullies sexually fetishize weaponry, and many of the types who would disagree with authoritarians are paralyzingly afraid and ignorant of anything “military looking” that makes loud noises.

“Because only cops and troops should have guns!” said the enlightened neoliberals, as they gladly handed over their responsibilities of self-protection and firearms education to the might-makes-right crowd.

“Muh freedom! An’ 1776 or somethin’! An’ own the libs, don’t tread on me!” says the gun “collecting”, MAGA-hat wearing, massive-smoking-diesel-truck-in-the-suburbs driving, angry and scared working man, who carries a copy of the Declaration of Independence (he hasn’t actually read, or if so, cherry-picks the parts he likes) and is completely ignorant on the Bill of Rights, who loudly decries and slanders “The Government™” …but conveniently simps for his abusive bossman and “backs the blue” when they mercilessly beat a bunch of people waving signs and assault reporters. Who waves a Bible (also unread) around yet shows contempt and hatred for his neighbor. Who thinks a bunch of armed insurrectionists storming the Capital because they didn’t like poll results aren’t traitors.

Lol.

Lmao.

God help us.

Many of the people who are opposed to this clown show have been successfully declawed and defanged if their legal processes have fallen apart, which we’re watching happen in real time. They’re also scabs who just want their creature comforts and will keep their heads down hoping “somebody else will take care of it.”

you should be weary.

Oh don’t worry, we’re really freaking tired and weary of this nonsense.

But we should also be wary of how sneaky these bastards are.

As Caesar Donald the step to becoming the god emperor isn’t that big…

Kinda just hoping we can skip all that and go straight to the “Et tu, Bruté?” bit.

The worship of limitless work and the military, a toxic obsession with hyper-individualism and isolation, with a paper-thin facade of morals and self-proclaimation of greatness, while everyone is broke, without opportunities, hooked on drugs, and stuck with crumbling infrastructure in vast stretches of remote nothing-land, while getting used and abused by multinational corporations and barons?

Sounds like they’re just pushing the mentality of the southern states to a national level.

“This is an invasion that could have been an email!”

Oh trump’s definitely not the “daddy” in this relationship.

Imperial power will co-opt, steal, bastardize, and butcher whatever peoples or messages it has to in order to justify its own legitimacy.

Gentle reminder that a term of military service is compulsory in Israel.

In essence, wicked old bastards are conscripting kids, filling their heads with xenophobia, and sending those kids to die.

Kids getting blown to pieces is a net-negative for mankind.

If they will not change, the most good these “leaders” can amount to in their brief time on this planet before they go straight to Hell, is to become a feast for the buzzards, preferably sooner rather than later.

(Edit: wording)

Annnd "Open"AI goes full evil, to the surprise of absolutely no one.

And the military is going for this? Yikes.

“Ah, my mistake! I suppose that was a bunch of civilians with signs and not combatants with weapons after all. Let’s try again. Anyway, is there anything else I can help you with?”

That’s exactly the strategy. He’s basically a human (term used loosely) “Denial of Service” attack on our collective psyche.

Constant output of garbage information we’re forced to evaluate, until we’re overwhelmed, overloaded, and shut down from being mired in so much sheer volume of stupidity.

Or (hopefully?) not having private stuff the car recorded passed around the company’s office for chuckles.

Awww go fashy, stonk crashy :‘( :’( LOL

I’m glad I could be helpful!

Thankfully, the cell signal situation has improved a LOT among major routes in recent years, so I hope it doesn’t sound too scary. There’s also safety in numbers, at the very least the buddy system! :)

There’s a lot of online information / guides for travelers, and of course, get a U.S SIM card and check who’s got the best/broadest service areas where you’ll be going. Also, offline maps can be downloaded to your device as well.

(But learning to use a paper one is always an excellent skill to have!)

In case of an emergency, phones can still usually reach 911 (our emergency services number) if they can reach a cell tower at all, regardless of “subscription”, if that’s of any comfort. :)

Heh, it’s cool, that’s your right.

I hope you have a good one. <3

Not enough people talk about this.

When I found out how that worked I was like

“Lemme get this straight…they get whatever they want out of you, as long as they want, exempt from overtime, for a flat yearly fee? But of course you get benefits and vacation time you are socially stigmatized from using…Yeah that’s a scam.”

What’s with the obsession with renting/owning people?!?

Naaron (Nay-ay-ron)

I like the way you explain your Anarchist stances. I’m a Christian Anarchist myself, and see anarchism as a society in a similar light as personally trying to be like Jesus: It may be a state of perfection we, in our imperfections, cannot attain, but if everyone was trying their best towards a cooperative society free of authoritarian hierarchal peepee-swinging, maybe things would be much better overall.

Daring to believe in a better world and exert whatever influence we have to do so, takes a strong inner fire, and a lot of people miss the point when they think we just wanna tear it all down without a plan and start from scratch next week and it would all be unicorns and rainbows overnight.

I wish your friend safety in their travels!

Lol what degree of douchebag would downvote your comment, holy cow LOL.

I sincerely commend the positivity and kindness you’ve been bringing to this thread with warmly inviting people to flee to Canada.

Edit: Although maybe you’re being a bit harsh further down. :( It doesn’t have to be so personal? People are just discussing stuff. Let’s not let the decisions of stupid men in power deter us from productive discussion.
