That’s essentially what I expect is happening, and it’s going to be difficult to convince me otherwise.

Look at them overachieving when they only need to worry about memories like goldfish.

Unless they release verifiably unredacted/unedited documents (and I’m not sure whether/if verifably unredacted/unedited documents are possible in this circumstance) I’m not going to believe they aren’t holding things back out of self preservation anyhow.

The worst possible time for anything like this to be released is during the Trump admin, because now I have to apply an extra layer of skepticism.

I don’t even have to go to a conservative sub to know they are or will handwave away his presence on the flight logs, and I know nothing worse is going to be released about Trump or any Trump ally, so what’s even the point aside from a witch hunt for all Trump’s enemies who somehow will be on the list?

To be clear, I’m sure that Democrats and a disappointingly long list of non-politicians are on that list too, and they should all see the light of day.

Yeah, I peeked at your moderation history after posting, it’s OK, I see now this is the best I could have expected in answer. Good day to you!

Remember 2023? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Bullshit.

If you want to use the browser despite those controversies then that’s your choice, but be honest enough to admit they exist.

I don’t use brave and haven’t for a long time, but these things are well documented.

Please Lord, let this debate actually happen.

I’d say it’s a good thing we have antitrust laws, but we all know how much laws mean to the group of mobsters currently in control.

Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly, the highest-ranking Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, said government workers should comply with an Elon Musk order that is being disputed by others. Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency sent out an email…

Thank you Nancy Pelosi!

Oh I completely agree with you. Most of these headlines are taking tiny little bumps or 3 twitter users complaining, and blowing it up into what we all want to hear right now.

I have zero anecdotal evidence that any of the magas in my sphere have any regrets whatsoever.

💯

Honestly that just makes my point even stronger. The so-called sane conservatives are still cheering unabashedly.

Yep. Anyone who wants can check old.badplace.com/r/conservative and still see nearly unanimous support for everything he’s doing.

I assume everyone knows what to replace badplace with.

They are my canary. When a few of them start to notice they’ve been had (and frankly I’m skeptical they will do so until someone they love is headed to a camp) I’ll believe there’s any substantive remorse among Trump voters.

This will really chap your ass then:

Good yes, but at this point they see what is happening to Target. It feels a little less “stand by your values” and a little more “self preservation” especially after this: https://www.afr.com/world/north-america/what-choice-do-they-have-us-ceos-bend-the-knee-to-trump-20241218-p5kzgc

I, for one, welcome our AI overlords.

I just love the hypocrisy from republicans. They preach smaller government, but are always the first in line to take rights and freedoms away from those they dislike.

More than anything else, their inability to perceive the friction between these stances is what frustrates me the most about conservatives, and convinces me that all their supposed “values” are just the high sounding words they use to justify various forms of bigotry and control.

Not anymore!

Oh I gotta fire up TF2! These sorts of shenanigans are the main reason I drifted away years ago.
