I think that credits them with having a coherent plan besides “MOREEEE! MOOOOOOORE!!!”

They want people to have more kids… but only white kids… but not only white kids, because they need to maintain the school-to-prison pipeline… but they don’t want anyone to have enough money to want to have kids, except them… but it’s okay, the humanoid robots will be slaves instead… but the humanoid robots don’t actually work and are just piloted by people from India, one of the few industrialized countries which doesn’t have an aging population… but clearly there’s nothing we could learn from them, so maybe if we offered broke Americans $2,000 to have a baby… what do you mean $2,000 isn’t enough to raise a baby, how many pencils could they really need… what do you mean baby formula plants are closing because babies aren’t profitable enough because no one is having babies because we’re taking all the money… clearly the solution is to ban abortion… but wait, I don’t actually want that to apply to us rich assholes… so state-by-state abortion bans… but wait not enough states are voting to ban abortion…

clearly the solution is to bomb Iran

Meanwhile in the rest of Star Wars the Empire was pretty much just is Big Powerful Evil For The Sake Of Evil Guys + Mindless obedient human puppets.

If you think Star Wars does it bad - which I’m not entirely disagreeing with you on - dear god never watch Rebel Moon

Single worst piece of scifi I’ve ever seen in my life, and I’ve seen so much scifi. I watched all of Dark Matter for some reason, and Rebel Moon is so much worse. Why did they give the Big Evil Fascist a Fascist Shillelagh? I don’t fuckin know man it’s the worst movie ever.

Fair, but straight males will generally look at the undressed bodies of grown women and enjoy it.

As a certified straight male,

• I do not enjoy AI content whatsoever, even less if it’s erotic. It’s like the visual equivalent of a blow-up doll: desperate and gross.

• I would not enjoy content obtained without consent

Be less creepy please, or if you insist on being creepy, at least don’t purport to speak on behalf of other people who are less creepy than you.

But also cause some really sick parties in the streets

Sadly no. It’s a Black Panther (maybe the current chairman?) with a semi-auto shotgun making it clear what he intends to use it for.

It may not have actually escalated into shooting yet, but the armed defense is certainly beginning.

I mean the Dems trying to run a genocidaire who could barely speak coherently probably didn’t help matters

not more establishment dems.

Fixed that for you

“Being a leftist in America is being right first and having everyone be angry at you for it”

I started as a libertarian… I was 15, but there’s hope for everyone.

They are foreign to the American ideal.

What ideal would that be? Manifest Destiny, the genocidal land theft from indigenous people followed by enslaving Africans to build the nation?

This is America, and underneath the rhetoric and the eagles, always has been America. You’ve just been brainwashed into believing otherwise.

Obama had all the power he needed to stop the WoT, the Patriot Act, the militarization of police, and the corruption of Wall Street in its tracks, but nope.

The ruling stating that presidents have complete immunity from persecution for acts taken in the official capacity as president, in which the judges made it clear that could even include assassinating political rivals, did not pass during Trump’s administration.

It passed during Biden’s administration. The Supreme Court basically told him “you can assassinate Trump and nothing would happen to you.” He didn’t even pursue him for persecution.

Democrats are not just useless, they’re complicit.

Not to mention that America inspired the Nazis, and after we “beat them”, we hired them to run NASA and NATO…

Guess I misunderstood “sticking with it” then, sorry

Refusing to vote for pro-genocide, pro-homeless-persecution candidates isn’t “perfection”, it’s basic human empathy. I could probably give a pass on the other points for political purposes.

Absolutely. Democrats support genocide and (unless a Republican is in charge) support ICE. That’s not a “lesser evil”… it also isn’t even quantifiably a lesser measure of dead bodies, if that’s all you care about for some reason.

The DNC is where progressive movements go to die. It cannot be reformed.

The courts already allowed DNC to rig their primaries, I bet they’ll keep up the theater. Might as well.

“We could have voluntarily decided that, ‘Look, we’re gonna go into back rooms like they used to and smoke cigars and pick the candidate that way,” DNC’s lawyer Bruce Spiva told a Florida court.

Unless you mean Trump. Probably you mean Trump. Last time he tried stealing the country (before getting elected again wtf) the military seemed ready to intervene. Wonder if that’d happen now.

He vetoed legal psychedelics, unemployment pay for striking workers, repeatedly ignored COVID restrictions, maintained a relationship with AIPAC, and did photo ops throwing out the only possessions of homeless people.

Again, they got gang tattoos. They’re not worried about hiding anything or keeping up appearances. They have guns and the government on their side. They are the dogs of the ruling class. Most of us don’t even have guns… yet.

Not to even get into the DHS Twitter posting “14 words” tweets and other barely-veiled white supremacist propaganda.

My theory seems to line up with the author of this article’s experience.

They hired her without even bothering to check that she’s a massive ICE detractor, how does that support your position? It’s a hiring process, a necessary part of getting boots on the ground, not a meaningful screening process and not really presented as one.

I tend to place human compassion as a higher priority than morals derived from novels.

…also the book is about shooting a mentally handicapped guy because the world wasn’t able to accommodate his disability. Are you always pro-eugenics or just in specific cases?
