News@lemmy.world•Federal Agents Are Intimidating Legal Observers at Their Homes: “They Know Where You Live.”English
1·17 days agoThis was always my problem with the “2a saves us from tyranny” people. Hypothetically, if I’m driving my car and I get boxed by armed masked men, I’m letting some rounds off. Legally, you don’t know who these people are and they don’t have any right to detain you, to search you without a warrant, you fear for your life, etc.
But Realistically, I end up dead. My family probably gets hunted down. It’s similar to state sponsored rights violations and owning a firearm doesnt do shit.

News@lemmy.world•Melinda French Gates on Bill Gates in Epstein files - 'Painful times in my marriage'English
28·2 months agoI am just speculating here, like everyone else is, but she is probably just hinting because she doesn’t know shit.
“My ex-husband, billionaire tech mogul Bill Gates, used to hang out with Jeff Epstein. Bill would occasionally meet up with him” is the extent should could say and prove. The rest is hearsay.
I thought you meant Joe schmo, what does he get out of a fascist dictatorship. Billionaires are all absolutely corrupted by wealth. Smeagols chasing the ring.
Social identity and cognitive biases. They want to be on the winning side, they seek answers which already confirm their preconceived notions. It’s the same with cults and fandom at large.

51·2 months agoIf I could get just one message to Elon, that I know he would recieve:
No matter how much money you have, no matter how hard you try, no matter how many people you surround yourself with, you are a fucking loser. we all think that. The people that don’t act like it, they think it too, but they want your money. But we all think it you creep.

News@lemmy.world•One dead after Minneapolis shooting involving ICE immigration agents, US media reportEnglish
8·2 months agoIt’s the guy running towards the camera at the end, not that it really matters who pulled the trigger in this hit squad.
He has a gun in his hand and immediately bugs out after the shots are fired.

memes@lemmy.world•Did Nolan forget which movie he's making a sequel for?English
0·3 months agoWithout knowing any details on the movie other than “Christopher Nolans next movie is The Odyssey” and that appearing early in the trailer, I thought, Oh ok, cool, kinda doing something visually here, not historically accurate but an artistic adaptation like the 300 or something. Then the rest of the trailer is just, nope, normal Greece. So out of place.

politics @lemmy.world•‘60 Minutes’ reporter’s email denouncing pro-Trump censorship leaksEnglish
0·3 months agoThe Amerinazi has successfully captured the fourth pillar of democracy. This isn’t breaking news, it has been happening for years. I mean, I am just spouting shit at this point, but nothing is going to change. They control the legislative, executive, judicial and media, all four pillars.
How and why do they ever reliquish power and control?

News@lemmy.world•Stephen Miller Shouts Unhinged Message to Gun-Wielding CopsEnglish
0·6 months agoNo, this dude was not a bully. He’s a sociopath (maybe psychopath) who has had always had the means to overcome his antisocial disorder.
You can see it in his responses, he feigns emotion. He acts in a way that he believes others perceive as confidence or authority but it just “feels” wrong as the other. Dead facial expressions followed by forced pauses for fake introspection which extremely animated facial expressions, then right back to dead face.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump Thinks He Can Take Away Citizenship From Anyone He Doesn’t Like | The president is now musing about trying to revoke Rosie O'Donnell’s birthright citizenship because he doesn’t like herEnglish
0·8 months agoSerious question, what would you do if you were in America? Call your buddies and organize a march? Start offing people by yourself? Stand on a street corner with a sign? Donate money to a contradicting politician?
This game plan is enacted by design, it’s what makes fascist regime takeovers work, what makes it difficult to organize and resist. You have a husband, kids, a mortgage, a job, car payments, need to put food on the table.




I agree with you and would say the same thing to my Trump supporting colleagues about Bernie in particular, circa 2016:
“I get it you hate socialism, and Bernie is going to turn us into Venezuela or whatever, but do you really believe that is his intent? Or do you believe, as wrong as he may be, that he thinks he’s doing the right thing and trying to help people.”
Most would always agree, that although he is wrong and a communist fascist socialist dope, he is earnest.
But back to the paradoxical supporters of Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders, I think the genuineness is a big draw, but the politics are not completely incompatible… they both agreed on one big thing in different ways… Ron Paul wanted to audit the Fed, Bernie wanted to tax billionaires. They both were going after the masters of the universe pockets.
