Not exactly, they can mind control you into being happy your boss steals your wages tho

tbh it’s mostly just a gimmick to excite voters, not just a luxury. The Party still basically picks who the nominee is.

There was a show primary but candidates were essentially stonewalled from participating and voters browbeaten for not supporting Biden, which is why only wackos like RFK Jr are the only other people who ran.

This is the choice that was forced onto us. The Democrats could have had a Primary and instead they chose this for us.

I’ll bite.

No, they won’t literally read brain waves to find out your secrets. Instead maybe they’ll have an AI model trained on data from your life and then use it to simulate the things you might be thinking.

Sure, that’ll lead to false convictions, but they don’t give a shit lol

Holy shit this is really cool.

Looks like I’m testing not using YouTube.

Unlimited genders on the first world.

Also doubles as a kill list for when they decide it’s time.

And lets not forget shit like the CIA overthrowing attempts at democracy.

And of course the UN partitioning Palestine to create Israel.

And all the fucking oil wars.

A comforting lie.

The IMF loots countries that take loans and in contrast China forgives loans. The reason Africa is aligning more with China is because they’re getting a better deal. If they really were just the same as the West then China wouldn’t be winning the continent.

We exploit Africa. China has begun to take up Western marketshare in Africa because they’re less exploitative and offer a better deal.

Even countries that use the same calendar don’t call it the same thing!

Korea and Vietnam each have their own Korean and Vietnamese New Years, but Malaysia literally calls it Tahun Baru Cina (I’ll give you three guesses what Cina means). In fact, several countries call it something like that: Singapore and the Philippines calls it the Chinese New Year, Brunei calls it Tahun Baru Cina, etc. Meanwhile, China doesn’t even call it a lunar new year, they call it the spring festival.

Lumping them all together is just something we’re doing to make it easier for Americans.

Not every “lunar new year” is on the same day in every country; there are different lunar calendars.

The Chinese New Year is not the Buddhist New Year is not the Islamic New Year, yet we’re smashing them all together.

This is cultural insensitivity.

It’s worse. For example, this war has been the deadliest for journalists in modern history, and by proportion of people killed maybe even the deadliest ever. They don’t just target them in their homes, they target the families of journalists too. This is something new.

Israel’s “Gospel” has shown us where this leads.

(it leads to civilian casualties and war crimes)

During the COVID pandemic we decided a 9/11 every day was fine, that has consequences.

ugh yeah that’s its name, forgot how fucking awful it was

40k was supposed to be a parody 🤢

The targets are selected by AI dude, they’re just killing whoever the chatbots tell them to kill. 🙄

The flood of new users overwhelmed the existing culture for online forums and the ability to enforce existing norms.

That’s not really true, in hindsight.

The real problem was that the tools for enforcing existing norms and protecting forum culture didn’t exist yet. Look around today, though, and you can certainly find forums and boards and other online spaces where a distinct culture exists and its norms are enforced.
