I'm skeptical there is going to be any kind of uprising. The media algorithms are getting too good. The surveillance is getting too pervasive. The population is getting less educated.

Birds of a shit feather flock together, Randy.

I'm sorry. I should been more clear. I meant society as in all of humanity that has built in hierarchical tendencies of control would be a little hard to form a true stateless and classless system. I personally think we should strive to get as close as humanly possible to that ideal even though I think we can't ever fully encompass that goal.

Saying Jews are committing genocide in the name of Judaism is completely correct. But you're also right that Israel doesn't speak for all Jews.

Would any deal be legitimate under a war time presidency that barely has a functional government? I'm all for arming up Ukraine but this will have severe austere consequences and should have normal representative proceedings.

They seem to enjoy it, in fact. Memes are important, but so is freedom to meme.

Will Japan still be above sea level?

"grifter". it's nice to know who's going to take advantage of you

Don't worry, we're promised communism when the US falls into a nightmare fascist surveillance state.

Trump is fucking untouchable. Unless there's a physical arrest, he can continue to ignore whatever the hell he wants.
