Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

Or just use Firefox and not deal with that.

Yes. Next question.

He did, he just didnt do it. I’m saying that the next dude will and the government of “law and order” won’t go after him.

“It’s a big club and you aren’t in it!” - Carlin.

Literally using my joke unironically as proof that I’m somehow a troll. I couldn’t write this as satire if I tried.

Every dollar SpaceX spends, NASA gets it done with a fraction of the budget. The James Webb took forever but it was worth it. SpaceX would have trashed it for a tax write off.

Your electronics you used to post this were made in China. Apple’s $1000 phones are made in China. Nintendo consoles are assembled in China, as is Playstation and Xbox. If you used anything you liked in the last ~30 years, China had a hand somewhere in it.

China doesn’t have a magic power to remove all stability from its materials like a shitty alchemist, companies produce cheap bullshit because its cheaper to sell new ones than to fix old ones. It’s not some grand mystery of “MSG-elements” or whatever it will be called in the future. It’s simply that economics cares more about short-term profits than long-term gains. And cheap shitty materials will do that in any country that makes them.

There’s junk from Germany, shit from Spain, and ass from America. Borders don’t inherently change the outcome of a assembly line’s finalized product. I’ve had good paper from America, great pens from China, and nice leather from Italy. But I can also walk to any metropolitan area in each of those countries and find you the cheapest, filmiest bullshit possible within the hour of stepping off that plane, that proudly states “MADE IN $LOCAL_COUNTRY”.

Ideally, no spying at all. My car just gets a radio and nothing else. My phone can be a GPS with a plastic piece that is stuffed in the air grill.

As someone living in the United States, China spying on me doesn’t do much. I’m not really a target for them. My data is just sold to the highest bidder, often Facebook or Google to sell me more ads.

If the US government wanted me gone, I’d be gone in 2 days and Fox News and its brainwashed masses would say I deserved it since I never voted for Trump and didn’t sing the pledge of alliance every day. If China wanted me gone, they’ll have to work for it and it’d be front page news that would become an October surprise.

That’s my main two things. As an American, I am impacted by American laws more than China or even Canada’s or Mexico’s laws. If China banned me (which they have and still do, I’m a queer anarchist) I’m not super impacted by it. If America banned me (I’m a queer anarchist, they’ve done it before) I need to go into hiding.

Does America want to kill me? Not intentionally, at least. I don’t think there’s a personal FBI man watching my webcam, seeing me type up the same shitty memes I tell my friends for a quick laugh as we play games. But if America start getting more cult-y with Trump and his ilk, I have to watch my back more than if China suddenly wanted the same body on their doorstep.

If we can’t even get Trump to stop running despite being a convicted felon, I don’t even know if we can catch up with the next fucker. Dude could literally shoot someone on 5th Ave and the government would go “Well, they’re the president, what are you going to do about it?”

The same FBI that was dismissed by Trump when they looked into him, even though he was totally guilty? Or the same FBI that told civil rights protestors to kill themselves?

The FBI is the Federal police for crimes the common man commits, not the rich.

The moment I hear anyone talk about genocide when referring to the US elections, I write them off as a useful idiot or Russian troll.

Glad to know that Ukrainians getting murdered by Republican polices isn’t enough for you. China killing Uyghurs? Not important for this dude. Moral consistency is for suckers!

That’s how you sound right now. Murder is bad, and I am opposed to it whenever its happening. Be it neighbors, countries, systemic, or individual. Sorry that being aginast to my tax dollars going to helping people be free from harm and helping people live better lives is somehow too much of a “single issue”.

Working with fascists gives fascists power. And fascists have money to give to centrists to move further right.

Why else would they not want money? It’s not like lives at home are in danger, the lives abroad clearly don’t matter much.

Happened to me before I made this account, and it’ll happen again.

Then he should stop running as he’d be going for a 3rd term, right? That’s unconstitutional.

Oh who am I kidding, rules are for the poor.

The day Ted Cruz leaves office is the day he stops taking vacations while his state is being frozen over or hit by a storm.

Whoops, AOC just admitted she’s… checks notes a secret Trump supporter Russian bot in office because she cares about the deaths of children. At least according to most people on Reddit/Lemmy.

And the UK too.

Thin narrow margin for Harris, several swing states are a new Florida of leaning and ballot counting taking forever. Then right wingers get upset, try to sue as they also then shoot local people for not sieg heiling Trump.

Harris enters office in Jan, makes some statements of how this is horrid, says she’ll do something to help it, but won’t solve the issues that make people consider being fascists who shoot mosques.

From there we’ll see the first 100 days of her term, and if the Senate and House are in favor, we might get some good bills in for a short term solutions to the long term diseases of American necrotic brain damage of conservatism.

For most people, nothing changes. Anti-trans bills are still in place, putting abortion back will be near impossible, and police will still shoot first ask questions second. Maybe some debts are cleared, weed is maybe legalized finally, but the county is the same as it was under Biden.

No you don’t understand, name calling and body shaming from liberals is cool, memes and accurate criticisms from leftists is bad and needs to be banned.

Now? Since day one they’ve been waving the flags that their grandfathers took from fascists when they kill them and liberated France and then said “I’m saying what we’re all thinking, the sheeple are just too afraid to speak their minds!”

Trump was a laughing stock day one, he was scary when he gained ground, and now people think it’s awesome to be a Nazi and not be worried about someone clocking them in the face like they deserve.

The mask has been slipping since 2008 for Republicans, 2016 is when they painted their face to show dogwhistles, 2020 is when they just started waving the flag of their true ideology, “Fascism is awesome for me, actually.”
