Good. You keep electing fascists, you deserve to suffer for your choice.

Mitch McConnell has personally done more harm to the people of the US than anyone since Reagan. He is one of the greatest monsters in modern American history, directly responsible for immeasurable human suffering and he does not deserve to live.

The next one needs to kill him, and I hope it happens on camera for all of us to watch, because it's the closest tbong to justice he will ever face.

It's legitimately cool that buying a new car and having any self-respect whatsoever are mutually exclusive now.

Fuck cars.

Also, heat your home more effectively in the winter by always having a bucket of coal burning in your living room.

Yes, they are. Good cops are actively forced out of police departments. It's a very well documented phenomenon.

Because he has more money than you, which gives him more rights than you.

The implication is that cops may acknowledge that a law is unjust, or flat out unconstitutional, but in the end they don't give a shit and make the invalid "I'm just following orders" excuse to gleefully ruin your life by putting you jail for it anyway.

"Don't be mean to the oppressors, either" isn't neutral or peaceful. It's simply siding wirh the oppressors in the most cowardly way possible.

I stopped reading when you said the goal of tech companies is to solve real world problems. The only goal of tech companies is to create products that will make them a profit. To believe anything else is delusional. That's kind of why our society is crumbling and the planet is dying.

I think you're vastly overestimating how well-off "average" is in the US.

No, I actually don't. This was never going to be scientifically meaningful. It was nothing but a vanity project that went exactly how it deserved to.

Why are people still on there? Twitter has been sold; the old management is never coming back. X is, almost explicitly at this point, a platform meant for crypto scammers and white supremacists, and that is not going to change. If you aren't part of or adjacent to those groups, fucking leave it.
