  • I found yours, yours is just like gibberish.

    You are here presenting the situation as if it was a sudden development, rather than a known risk from the start. You are also presenting it as a definite certainty. Neither of these presentations are correct.

    No, risk is a spectrum, like everything. The level of risk changes based on the situation. Jack found it to be an acceptable level of risk, the situation changed, the risk got higher, and it was no longer acceptable to him.

    I was presenting a hypothetical situation where risk was the absolute maximum because I want people to use their heads and think about it, and maybe break out of the snearing circlejerk bubble for a second.









  • I’m sorry, no love for Dems but this is another level of cope and mental gymnastics. Trump did not soften any American power. If anything he crested a wave of right wing electoral victories across the world and emboldened white supremacist, Nazi, and transphobic messaging.

    Trump radicalized people… To vote for Biden!! People got radicalized to vote for a right wing old senile white man who sniffs kids instead of a far right old senile white man who raped 14yo’s. Trump was not a victory for radicalizing people to the left - Trump put the world decades behind in social progress.

    If Trump wins but Project 2025 doesn’t cement GOP power the way the Christian nationalist power fantasy thinks it will, we’re gonna get another fucking Biden all over again. Radicalized to slightly left of far right.




  • I want to believe, but there’s a reason billionaires spend millions each on security annually. Zuck security is reportedly more than $20 million every year. Musk keeps his numbers a secret, but he’s probably even more paranoid than Zuck.

    No, with the endless culture war frenzy I can’t see working class solidarity, more likely a bloodbath between red MAGA and blue MAGA. The people flying the most and biggest flags will be the biggest targets.







  • A threat to “neo-liberal Democracy” where votes aren’t counted equally, corporations are considered people and money is considered free speech.

    It’s way more accurate to say a vaguely secular/agnostic capitalist olicharchy that makes token diversity and inclusion efforts towards marginalized groups is being theatened by a queer-phobic patriarchal white Christian theocracy.
