Phasmata

Your government rapes children and operates concentration camps and supports genocide and starts unjustified wars and consolidates corporate power while taking away individuals' rights and destroys the environment… and so many of you are most upset that gasoline is too expensive.

Everyone who is calling out No Kings as the toothless virtue signalling block party that it has quickly become are my people.

I miss George Carlin.

No Kings is quickly becoming urban Burning Man.

I foresee No Kings becoming a capitalized annual event where a bunch of liberal white people just party while reveling in their virtue signalling. It is already becoming self-serve bread & circus.

MAGA probably looks forward to it so they can harvest a bunch of clips to spin to keep their base misinformed and fired up. I don't believe there is a single MAGAt that is afraid of even a historic number of people holding signs and chanting for a day. We should be doing much more.

Children being raped, impregnated, and imprisoned is the kind of shit that we should be going to war over, but suburban airheads want to whine about gas prices instead.

AI will be the asbestos/lead/PFAS of generation alpha

Owners and CEOs should have their incomes limited to a certain multiple of their lowest paid employee's income. Want to give yourself a raise? Have to give your employees raises too. Want to cut your employees' pay? Yours will have to come down proportionally too.

What are teachers in the US even doing anymore? Real question because too many Americans don't seem to have actually learned anything. I saw someone say that they wouldn't even know the US has an education system if not for school shootings, and I believe they were sincere.

There are people who should be dying right now. Unfortunately all the wrong people keep dying.

They keep obeying orders. I thank exactly none of them for their service at this point.

My "The Matrix" head cannon is that humanity fucked up the world so badly that they gave up on it and enlisted AI to care for their physical forms while generating a virtual reality for them to retreat into. Over time, that history was forgotten and corrupted.

The thing about trying to make Star Trek appeal to a younger generation is that TNG, DS9, and Voyager had absolutely no problem appealing to me when I was a kid, and they weren't trying so hard.

The Eternals wasn't as bad as people say. Ms Marvel and Hawkeye were really good and fun. Shang Chi was great. Thunderbolts was great. Wonder Man is excellent. People who let the bad stuff Marvel has done blind them to how the good stuff really need to get over it.

Continuing to try to break free from posting only my anger, further proof that I'm not just an abstract being of rage and disappointment here with proof that I do work for a living (find more of me on social media platforms @sotrdetailing.com

I am a real human who does more than just brood. I promise.

Let's do this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtQ9...

We set up a govt where ALL military and law enforcement is in ONE branch of govt then pretended like the other two branches could actually be checks against the one that has all the guns. It was fucking stupid, and I'm tired of pretending like the founders of America weren't naive as fuck for this.

How little empathy and how much cruelty must a man have to burst someone's testicles? We know how that feels to just sit wrong. I'm sure I have the physical strength, but I think it would be psychologically impossible for me to do it.

I saw someone say that he had no idea his life was about to end. I don't believe this. Maybe 5 min earlier he didn't, but the moment he got swarmed, I believe he expected he was about to die. It's what I would have been thinking. It's what countless other victims have thought. None of us are stupid

He had a gun and still didn't use it, opting instead to continue recording with his phone even as they beat and shot him to death. Some might call him foolish for this, but I think him noble and heroic in contrast to the weak, fearful, pathetic monsters that murdered him.

It's difficult to oppose the death penalty when I look at the oligarchy, kleptocracy, Trumpism, ICE, etc. My desire for heads to roll is about natural selection as much as justice. These kinds of people should not be allowed to exist.

I'd like to see Congress people joining their constituents in the streets, preferably armed particularly if they've ever praised the second amendment.

Is Venezuela great again yet?

The bar for graduating from high school in the US is stunningly low.

If the people you're protesting have to sign off on how and where you protest, you're not actually protesting.

Thinking a lot about Luthen's monologue in Andor lately and what I'm lacking that keeps me from being so heroic at a time when such heroics are needed. youtu.be/-3RCme2zZRY?...

There are still millions of Americans thinking to themselves right now, "I'm glad it wasn't me, and I'm sure it never will be. I'll be fine because I'll never be in that situation." We are living in "First They Came" by Martin Niemöller, and far too many people don't even understand what that means.

I miss the old kind of ice storms Minnesota used to get before corporations ruined the planet by shifting the climate.

The best time to stand up against fascists is yesterday. The second best time to stand up to fascists is today. Emboldening them with capitulation and submission is never the smart play long-term.

These are the Corpo-Fascist States of America. America is the bad place. Internationally we are the bad guys. The first amendment is dead. Liberty is an illusion generated by the fact that you're just too insignificant for them to give a shit about you for now. Pray you don't end up in their sights

Perhaps instead of constantly crying about Trump on social media while having no power to do anything, Democrats should be brutally exposing and flaming their Republican colleagues who keep looking the other way and enabling Trump. If you can't get rid of Trump end the careers of his enablers.

Was there ever a time that members of Congress were actual leaders and representatives of the people instead of just theatrical drama queens and corporate parasites?

Oh no, I hope another country doesn't suddenly kidnap my president. That would be terrible.

Please put me in a room alone with him and give me total immunity.

Once again, my home will welcome any UN forces and will reject any Trump loyalists when the time comes.
