Honestly he is probably just on a stupid amount of stimulants. He has a habit of that

It can be both.

For a certain definition of "fine".

You're right though: even though he's already sweating bullets from whatever he's on, he's clearly nowhere near as unconformable as when he's reminded that the pitchforks are coming..

they want us to wear glasses that record everything we do.

that is not because they want to see what trousers we wear. it is to control the population.

They want to put your state/government ID's on your phone. It's sold as "for your convenience" but what it really is, is free access to your phone while it's unlocked.

So many things that you didn't realize you needed get sold 'for your convenience'

you're supposed to make an argument, and try to change things that way

He says, fully aware that all the arguments have been made for decades if not centuries only to be met with "no. We don't wanna and you can't make us" from those who hold the reins of "legitimate" power.

Like every other despot before him, he wants his victims to keep flailing ineffectually so that nothing changes.

They aren't joking when they day cruelty is a show of fear and weakness. They need you to do something they can't make you do, they don't have the charisma to talk you into it, so they'll torture you to try to convince you. Cruelty is a last-ditch effort.

He stops himself midway through a thought:

"the motives feel...." and then ends with "I don't think anything about him is heroic."

I have no idea what he was going to say with the motives but maybe Thiel thinks that Luigi allegedly killed the CEO for different reasons and used the health care problem as a cover?

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' etc.
