This kind of messaging is intended to drown moms in research, risk, and responsibility.
The goal is to keep them so anxious and so busy that they can't work for pay--especially not in high-powered "mens" jobs--or get involved in any kind of efforts to push for progressive change.

The corruption of the Dems has to do with big money, of course, but there is also a fair amount of uniquely American neurosis. Liberals hate themselves. They think rednecks are the “real Americans,” and desperately want to be liked, even respected by these goons and imbeciles.

I just did a google search for a torrent and the AI "assistant" informed me that torrents are illegal and it would help me find official means for streaming. Great, great, why don't you drain Lake Huron for cooling power while lecturing me about morality. Also, keep helping Elon distribute kiddie-po

Any “moderates” still claiming we are not under a fascist government are willfully deluding themselves.
Even a right-wing “democratic” movement would throw Ross under the bus, in order to protect the supposed legitimacy of the system.
Instead they are loudly proclaiming “we are the law.”

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

In case you’re wondering whether the pro-ICE reactions to Renee Nicole Good’s murder are natural, here’s a comment that was just left on my video. My video about anti-transgender bias at the BBC. I haven’t made a video about Good yet.

this is a very calculated escalation of the common police strategy to shout contradictory or impossible to follow commands at someone in order to justify violence against them
WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:
* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon
The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

It looks like Jonathan Ross dropped his phone(why was it even out), startled himself, and started shooting. We are all at risk from a goddamned clown car gestapo.

This is evangelicalism in a nutshell. Once you're "saved," nothing else matters, certainly not on this plane of existence.
