  • Missing off the top of my head:

    • proof by duration: it’s been working for so long, why change it now?
    • proof by populism: it’s served so many people well
    • proof by gaslighting: technically speaking Trump won 3 presidential elections in a row
    • proof by marriage: I’m married to Usha Vance and we have kids, how could I possibly be gay?
    • proof by omission: there’s no proof he’s a criminal, he never release his tax records
    • proof by silence:
    • proof by flooding the zone: nobody is talking about that anymore





  • Do a deep trace and you’ll see that all of Apples off shore data centres are Alphabet owned. There’s encryption but Apple is just renting from the least privacy focused company. Also Apples privacy is really not much more than marketing. All you need is a CEO change or hey how about the current one embracing nazism casually from his own wallet?

    Low cost is the only argument here, but once you go NAS + VPN you never go back.




  • MKBHD, Linus, Most of the tech reviewing kids who got money and then hired an entire staff and in lots of cases also bought up really good solo YouTubers.

    Motherfcking Casey Neistat. He was never an amazing person, his exploitation of his wife’s ass in thumbnails and being comfortable with click bait titles always felt off. But he’s a masterful propagandist and videographer until I saw him waving Israeli flags at pro Palestine protests during a filmed documentary.









  • Democrats can’t govern. A snail with freeze frames like Moscow Mitch successfully and singlehandely skewed the Supreme Court for decades. Show me ANY democrat that can do that, and I’ll change my opinion.

    We need a left Moscow Mitch to unrig all the rigging. Until that point, the Dems are just Shit Lite™

    Consolation prize to have a OAC, Sanders and Mamdani party block, with the same kind of “grassroot” funding and organising that Kirk did for Toilet Paper USA.

    I swear to god, if you see the incompetence on both the Dem and GOP side of politics today, Moscow Mitch is almost single handedly a political chess grand master.

    The democratic party failed, when Obama failed to hold big money responsible and place the people first, and strategically outsmart Mitch.

    My money is still on a violent overthrow and adding a couple of amendments to the constitution. America is in it’s Second Civil War right now, and elections mean nothing in war time.




















  • When are the shitjustworks guys going to realise this just doesn’t work. These are all rules we already tried to follow, and he keeps making things worse for everyone, while lying and enriching soulless sycophants daily.

    The US democracy doesn’t have that kind of time. The people don’t have that kind of time. The climate and the planet and all of humanity don’t have that kind of time.

    He declared war on everything we stand for. At what point do we just say fuck the rules, off with his head, it’s gone too far?

    You’re still debating, and intellectualising this. It is not a debate if you’re snatched off the street, an unpaid govt worker, or his political foes.

    Think of 3 more really unthinkable borderline illegal things he could do. He will have done 3 of those in the next half year. The incrementalism is how these types win. It must end.
