Our Rulers Are Psychopaths And They’re Making Everything Awful

The US is preparing for war with Iran.
They’re going in for the kill shot on Cuba.
The latest batch of Epstein emails looks horrifying.
The US is full of protests because ICE keeps killing people.

TikTok blocks Epstein mentions and anti-Trump videos, users claim.

Larry Ellison likely in the Epstein files. Given how he bent over to Donald Trump and paid for TikTok.

This is a full on fascist regime now.

Anybody (especially Israel critics/Palestine supporters) who are worried about censorship, should consider using TikTok less and find other platforms now. I hear good things about Upscrolled but I've never used it so I can't say.

While you're at it, might be wise to leave Twitter as well.

Trump lacks the introspection to understand that this sort of thing is *why* Canada pivots eastward. China doesn't do this shit, the US does it daily.

By the way, this is why a lot of people speculate that he is unwell mentally. I'm just waiting for him to start randomly seizing our tankers.
Trump one week ago: "It's a good thing for him [Carney] to sign a trade deal. If he can get a deal with China, he should do that."

Trump today: "If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products".

The first Silent Hill movie was silly. It had good cinematography and not bad atmosphere, but the story was really cheesy. Fans defended it because it was 'good for a video game movie.'

I felt letting Gans make a SH2 adaptation would be a narrative disaster and it sounds like I was mostly right.

These figures are probably much closer to reality than what you'd hear in the Western media. What started out as genuinely peaceful protests in Iran was hijacked by literal terrorists who were organized by Western powers and lost steam when internet was wisely cut.

Sounds like it's being well-received lol

Okay, got it out of my system. By the way, today is my birthday. Was going to stream but allergies are kicking my butt and I don't feel like sneezing into the mic for three hours lol

Maybe tonight I'll feel better.

Iran cracks down on foreign-paid agitators (not to be confused with the actual peaceful protesters), who behead, burn, and shoot police and firefighters. US is mad and wants to invade.

Meanwhile an ICE dude just shot a woman three times for trying to drive away. Trump blames woman.

Hypocritical.

Israel has dropped roughly 100,000 tons of explosives on Gaza since Oct. 2023 — the equivalent of about 6 Hiroshima-size atomic bombs, according to multiple independent estimates. Yet for Israel & some of its advocates in the West, Gaza has not been bombed enough.

US & Israeli media figures are...

I think I said this before: I had two accounts. One was here for regular use, and another was an anonymous Twitter account where I just followed the news. I'm done with the Twitter one. Musk has turned that place into bot and AI slop central. I'll be sticking exclusively to BlueSky now.

Okay. No more politics from me. Back to whatever I used to post about before.

I once heard somebody describe Donald Trump as an 80-year-old Make-a-Wish kid and keeping that perspective allows me to laugh at the absurdity of displays like this.

On a side note, if there was ever a time to boycott the World Cup/FIFA, it's now.

It's so so so so hard to stay silent. When I started streaming, I told myself to never be too political. People follow me to watch me play games, not to opine on world affairs. And with few exceptions, I think I've been largely good about that.

But man, I absolutely fucking despise the USA now.
