I think at this point euthanasia would be the best option.
I think that’s called genocide.
So are you saying its better to let them suffer?
Huh? Them? Me?
At least use the right old lady.

I’m not mad that you were too lazy to watch the 30-second ad it’s from, I’m just pointing it out.
You seem mad though.
I was just messing with you, sorry.
Ok.
I’m serious. I’m really sorry I used some strong language. I was having fun and just let myself go over board. You’re not a little piss baby, look at me, I’m a little piss baby. I’m out here spewing all my angst into lemmy non stop everyday. You were kind enough to be silly with me but I took it too far.

I was born into a conservative family where hitting was the solution to basically every parenting dilemma. Long story short, I spent my life being exploited by everyone and gas lighted about it.

We don’t go after dictators because we can’t be the world police but any time a small country goes left of selling kids into slavery the US economically cripples it.
The general public -wants- to be led. They don’t -want- to be a functional part of democracy.
I’ve actually gotten into office specifically because of a corrupt official. I got the most resistance from the law and order dipshits that couldn’t believe -their guy- was breaking the law.
I live in one of the smartest states in the country and the overwhelming majority of the general public and elected officials operate on auto pilot knowing little beyond what the day to day calls for.
Education is basically rote memorization of authorized paradigms with little room to question the basic operating assumptions are wrong. The first surgeon to suggest washing hands was laughed out of his practice and died of sepsis in an institution.

We have brains that spent 2 million years in caves eating berries that spent the last few hundred dressing stupid and paying taxes to maintain a society that’s become so comfortable it’s collapsing under its own incompetence to detect or resist it’s suicidal self extinction for the enrichment of a handful.
People aren’t too busy to understand they’re being fucked, but they don’t have time to understand why or how so they listen to all the monied interests that tell them how to feel about what they let them know is happening.
Brief complaints like we’re “being fucked” are agreed with but don’t establish anything. Detailed complaints that explain the depth of the grievance are called manifestos to delegitimize whatever is said. Length and complexity make them easy to ignore and disregard.
There’s so many problems and people are just dumb, lazy, exhausted, gullible, or just not able to understand everything is ultimately one giant problem actively maintained to keep the masses so busy chasing their asses they haven’t seen this shit coming for the last 100 years.
It’s not that Trump is breaking norms.
It’s not that Democrats are captured resistance slow walking us right and refusing to stop him.
It’s not that the election was stolen and Democrats certified everything without zero resistance. (Seriously, if you don’t understand this look into election truth alliance.)
It’s not McConnell, Reagan, Nixon, Eisenhower, or any one act or individual.
You can look back to the business plot 100 years ago. Or the communist manifesto 200 years ago.

As long as it’s ok people are exploited as long as we just don’t see it, nothing will change. By the time we can see it, we can’t change it because it’s us.
Assume there isn’t an unholy union of accelerationist evangelicals and dystopian feudaltechno lords. (Seriously, Musk is going to use gitmo to test brain implants on detainees and protestors.) Further, assume enough people see through the 5 layer dip of bullshit that is MSM, strike, refuse to power the death cult and want change…
Give the Democrats power? They can’t manage shit with a majority yet also can’t stop Republicans with a tie. The primary goal of the DNC is to sand band actual leftist policies that benefit people by raising taxes on the rich.
Fundamentally, democracy doesn’t work because most people are content being worthless morons that didn’t understand how essential facets of civilization work.
Capitalism has an intrinsic motivation to undermine democracy at every step because educated workers want benefits and safety regulations and clean water.
At the end of the day, every American is propagandized from birth to think only of themself and any kind of tax is theft and socialism. There are like 9 Americans that know what socialism means and the rest just get angry and shoot at schools.
Capitalism produced the Idiocracy fucktards it wanted and now everything will crumble because no one will want to come up with a better idea.
Wow. I’m speechless reading this. I’m watching this garbage from abroad and it’s scary to think of what people like yourself are going through on top of the global destruction they’re gunning for.

Dude. From someone else with too many acronyms, you have got to stop borrowing trouble. We have enough.
The Democrats seem like captured opposition because their center of power is a faction of the wealthy elite. Like the Republicans they pass quite a few things meant to help their large scale donors. But there’s a pretty big gap between Biden’s status quo neglect of the working class and Trump’s active attempts to screw us. There’s also conservative Democrats, because as much as the parties use rhetoric to look like a united front, they are not. They have factions inside them. Their only motivation is to raise money, for which they must be seen to be worth the money. So they mostly worry about getting enough people elected to control parts of the government. This means that if they need to make deals with a conservative guy in Kansas to have him be a Democrat then that’s what they’ll do.
The good news about factions is that means there’s also socialist (ish) democrats in the party pushing to move everything to the left. But it’s important to understand the incentives of a political party. They need to deliver on enough promises to retain voters and donors. And those promises are absolutely at odds at times. Donors however tend to be better educated and positioned to keep an eye on politicians. While the voters can be deflected with headlines and empty executive orders that do nothing but give the president a briefing in 30 days. (Trump is using this trick too, many of his orders say “do x within legal limits and give me a report in 30 days”.)
I can understand why that seems like it’s a captured opposition but in reality we would hear about that. The Democrats are nowhere near unified enough to keep that kind of cooperation secret.
The election was not stolen. There are 50 different state election offices, 7 of which really mattered, 4 of which were run by Democrats, and 2 of which are somewhat fanatic about securing their elections after 2020. If there was any evidence that systems were hacked during the election we’d have large white papers flying around the Internet. Not hand waivey claims of possible interference because someone doesn’t like the numbers. We’d know the exact method of entry, and what they touched. To be clear this requires multiple states to completely fail to secure their systems, not just one state. And it requires their on staff security experts to remain quiet when their entire code of ethics is opposite to that. And it requires these separate groups to all keep a secret without even necessarily knowing each other. As we used to say in the Army, “I can’t even keep my soldiers from telling their Chinese AI girlfriend when and where our next mission is. There’s no way there’s a black helicopter organization out there.” The same principle applies here. It’s too many people with no ties to each other, in an industry built on outing organizations that have breaches or fail to patch vulnerabilities.
Unfortunately, consumerism is a huge deal. We elected Trump largely because of grocery prices. And keeping those prices low is the only thing many people care about. The best thing we can do is try to educate people so we’re ready in 2026 and 2028. Because Trump can’t stop the states from having elections without crossing the Rubicon and either fully taking power or causing massive civil unrest.

You’re convinced the system will save you even as those at the wheel brag about tearing it down. You’re part the problem.
The nv sos has sued. PA opened a case recently. Actually go to the site. Actually look at the statistically impossible conclusions and deal with the reality the election was stolen.
I’m not seeing anything on that page that is evidence of a breach. And no amount of searching turns up a lawsuit by the Nevada Secretary of State. In fact according to their third quarterly report they’re under the opinion they did a good job.
It’s very easy to throw numbers around with statistics. Which is why it’s so important to corroborate them or make sure they’re coming from a long-standing trustworthy institution. And a group founded in December who won’t even tell you who they are, is not it. For comparison here’s the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities page where you can see literally who they are. Here’s the page for the Economic Policy Institute.
You should be highly skeptical of random people throwing charts at you with little to no source citation.
I had to jump on my computer because the original was deleted, but here’s a few places to get started:

And I know it sounds ridiculous to read about the economy from a subreddit about a gamestock stop, this is pulled from SEC EDGAR filings and definitely worth review: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/owpfc3/will_the_real_gme_bbemg_please_stand_up_part_1/
So the problem with a Man in The Middle attack is the numbers won’t sync. And not on fancy charts. It’s like saying cashier drawer theft would go unnoticed because there’s no camera. When they count the drawer at the end of the night they’re going to know. When they get the hard copies of the ballots at the end of the night they’re going to know.

Fox News serves two primary functions.
The first is to get gullible people to feel victimized telling them a version of the truth. Like this is the great reset they’ve been ranting about and their gullibility was instrumental in making it happen.
The second function is to legitimize CNN and MSNBC as actual news instead of just another layer of manufactured consent telling you how to feel about what you’re allowed to know as they sane wash the ransacking of democracy.
I can’t help if you don’t understand statistics, but I can appreciate scepticism. The short version is those results are basically impossible. They’re a scatter plot of precinct reporting as they came in. Basically what should be wholly independent data points that don’t rely on each other. However, reading left to right (time of report) you can see an obvious trend wherein results are increasingly for Trump as they come in as if there was a threshold being sought. A trend like that is basically impossible organically.
If that’s not enough, consider Walter Mondale. He lost in about the most historic defeat in modern American history… Yet he still managed to flip 30 counties across the country.
Kamala got more votes than Biden in some areas in an incredibly close race. Kamala didn’t flip a single county in the entire country. Not one.
This is also the first election in decades certified without Democrats filing a lawsuit somewhere.
You can rightly claim there are more liberal Democrats, but liberalism is basically just the gateway to fascism as capitalism has an intrinsic need to sabotage democracy in favor of ignorant workers that want tax cuts instead of worker protections and single payer health care.
AOC is one of the most progressive in Congress (still basically a centrist) and Pelosi fights from her death bed to keep AOC from having any kind of real power because the DNC and rnc are two privately owned corporations that control who gets on the ballot.
You have to look into the fact that Black Rock basically owns 80% of the banks and publicly traded companies and that whole thing operates with the consent of the ruling class for their benefit at our expense.
The end of days accelerationists have been putting people into government for decades. Actually read into the business plot and Smedly Butler.
As crazy as it fucking sounds, Elon Musk launch a few hundred low Earth satellites to jack voting tabulators owned by another psychotic billionaire with long standing reported vulnerabilities.
What do you think “the revolution will not be televised” means? The billionaires that donate to both sides own the media telling you what to think as you live though a fascist blitzkrieg for control of the most terrifying military in history.
That article tells me nothing. And yes I’m familiar with the idea of manufactured consent and the history of the business plot. That’s not really relevant to actual evidence of hacking. And star link isn’t a magical device. It’s basically a really powerful wifi router. You could just as easily accuse the cell towers or the ISP cable nodes. There’s no magic tech there to get into places unnoticed unless starlink is the only router it ever touches, and that’s not how any of that actually works.
Agreed. What is/was your position in government? If you don’t mind to say just keep it very general or vague. I didn’t know someone who gets it was in any office in the US.
City level.
Corruption is an issue at every level because psychopaths are overrepresented in positions of power.
Even if 99% are good people, the shitty duplicitous ones with money get to the top.
Everyone sucks at leading because they either want their way too badly or not badly enough.
At the end of the day you have to understand that reason and rationality are a best case outcome for impulsive, hormonal meat beasts.
Our education system actively sabotages us in favor of depressed, conditioned organic cogs.
I wish I could upvote your comments a million times.
There’s a lot of local positions and some relatively leftist pockets in the us. This is why leftists need to vote more in small local elections.
Hang in there! I know it may sound impossible, but you can live through this. Enjoy your life with your daughter and pets. Fill your life with their happiness. I hope you feel loved.
