What irritates me is that I know whatever Ben Shapiro said on his show every week because the exact same words come out of people I know’s mouths that week. It’s such low effort, easily identified propaganda. I don’t understand why it works so well. Like I don’t get it at all.

The radicalization towards the right is what disturbs me the most. I am a blue collar working class person from a small town in a very conservative province, and I don’t understand at all how everything that’s happened has not radicalized people overwhelmingly towards left wing economics.

I blame most of it on culture war bullshit honestly, but a large part of me is just disappointed in how overwhelmingly stupid and easily manipulated a lot of my friends and family seem to be. The writing is on the wall as far as I can tell. I read a lot of books on economics and history and politics, and I don’t expect everyone to do that, but even before I got into reading about that shit I could tell that something was very wrong with how right wing pundits pushed their shit. It irritates me to no end having to explain these things in person to people I otherwise respect, see them talk about it and internalize it, and then two days later see them devolve right back into the same right wing propagandized mentality. Idk man, it’s disheartening.

Yeah I mean, I know why.

But it should be obvious to people when they see stuff like this and the heritage fund and other similar groups that it’s obvious propaganda efforts from the elites, and you think that alone would push people left.

But often times it doesn’t. And I don’t know how to fix that.

When I first learned about the IDU I was pretty horrified. Why are there all these big money right wing groups dedicated to pushing the world to be more right wing and zero left wing counterparts for it?

The rich have far too much power in the world.

lol seriously. He has shown in a very stark way that the rich are above the law in the US. You can literally try to overthrow the government and then threaten and slander judges and their families and still not go to prison if you’re rich.

You would assume that slandering a judges daughter while he was presiding over your case would land you in jail quickly.

I’m sure if I, a poor, did it, it sure would.

You can do pranks any day of the year tho. For instance, September 3rd is “shit in my cats litter box and see if my wife notices the difference” day.

It’s like when I found out how Lance Armstrong cheated in those bike races by giving himself blood transfusions while he was racing.

I was like “yeah, but like… still pretty impressive” lol

…do you think that fucked up things like that shouldn’t be reported on?

I won’t be paying for this game on principle. I might not even play it.

It’s pretty funny seeing his supporters and himself claim that the whole system is against him and that this is all some unfair witch hunt, and then turn around and see that he is constantly getting special treatment in the news.

Who cares what this jackass thinks? He’s a literal blithering idiot.

Then sell cocaine. It’s not that hard. You don’t have to not do things just because they’re illegal, don’t be such a pussy.

That’s why it’s thinking mode and not cleaning mode

That’s still really low IMO given the data available to us now.

If you think it isn’t a genocide at this point then you just don’t care.

And it’s depressing to see that that’s how most people view it, especially at this level.

Turncoat, two-faced, quisling, crony?

Get ready for another round of those weird murder spider man and Elsa videos for kids on YouTube, this time created by our robot overlords!

Hatless servers? What’s that?
