They’re gearing up to shove President Newsom down our throats.

Even while I was still a clueless lib, when I saw insurance companies sponsoring the DNC, I knew we’d never get publicly-funded healthcare.

The same private industry that off-shored as much manufacturing as possible and pocketed the rest. If people can’t see the contradictions of capitalism after the war with Iran, they’re just not paying attention.

If the reduced usage isn’t offset by the burning oilfields, at least.

The US isn’t capable of anything approaching peer conflict, and these chucklefucks thought they were going to fight China. These are the true believers in American exceptionalism - America is so great it doesn’t need things like supply lines or an industrial base!

NSPM-7 in action.

You can be the first one on your block to bring your boy home in a box.

Every time I turn around, they’ve doubled the number again.

Politics isn’t a sport, and the political compass shit is just the sorting hat for (Western) Poli Sci majors.

I am a Marxist-Leninist with a lot left to learn (and read). I was a sort of ultra-left “Marxist” (firmly in compatible left territory) until I started lurking on here and reading comments by Cowbee and other comrades.

What is to be done? Same as it ever was, build the party of the working class. For a global revolution to even be possible, the empire must sufficiently collapse. A year ago, I would’ve said it might’ve taken another few decades to really get going, but it seems we’ve left the decades where weeks happen and entered the weeks where decades happen. Let’s just say I’ll be really curious to see what happens when gas tops $10/gallon on average in the USA.

Make it a paid holiday for everyone, like Christmas, you cowards.

Agreed. PCs will wind up being for power users only, both due to cost and the decline in tech literacy.

But also, Nvidia is already salivating at the idea of people streaming games from what amounts to glorified chromebooks. Whether those are actually running a Google OS or a Microsoft one doesn’t ultimately matter - the point is that they will be locked into a walled garden with minimally-powerful hardware. Can such a device even really be considered a PC anymore?

If you are able to set up OpenWRT on your router and run Mullvad through that, you can cover your whole network as one “device.”

I recommend everyone get their own modem/router if they are able to. ISP’s don’t provide them for free and you have no idea what monitoring they do with their hardware.

How useful is the heart rate tracker on the PineTime? I’ve seen comments saying it hurts the battery life and isn’t accurate, but I don’t know if that’s been addressed with more recent updates.

The implication being that these now-unemployed women will enter into relationships with the blue-collar men to survive. The Epstein class certainly seems to be going all-in on traditional gender roles. Anything to get their human cattle breeding again, I suppose.

I’m not sure how effective it would be. I guess it depends on who believes their bullshit. If they have the military industrial complex firmly behind their grift, maybe they’ll just say to hell with the rest of us. I’ve believed we’re unavoidably headed for civil war since at least 2016, and nothing that’s happened since has changed my mind on that.

I’m now seeing headlines about heightened security at the Oscars. I’m split on whether they’re going to try shooting a celebrity to start riling people up for a ground invasion versus using this as an excuse to ramp up the panopticon. Either one is bad news.

And here I thought Kid Starver’s reputation was already in tatters over his unflagging commitment to genocide.

I suspect the involvement of the CIA or some of their rogue assets, either mobsters or gusanos. He was allegedly warming towards Cuba, and I think that may have been part of the motivation. Blowback Season 2 made a pretty convincing argument for that scenario.

I guess they’re announcing their false flags in advance now.
