  • While it is humorous that many gun nuts had their data sold and targeted by an algorithm, the real surprised pikachu goes to anyone thinking that this is unique to guns.

  • Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration freeze on federal grants and loans

  • Ha. I think that was in the further reading section of the Wikipedia article. You’re not wrong. I was just providing a this is what happened historically…

  • See Worcester v. Georgia essentially two states attempted to secede and the federal government stepped in (after first defying the court) to save the union. Does not bode well for the union at this point in history.

    Why don't the democratic voters actually riot over Trump and Musk instead of writing nice words on a Musk-owned social media?

    Jump

  • This is 100% correct.

    Also don’t discount the economic system working as intended. If I get off the hamster wheel to “riot,” my family quickly loses basic necessities.

    Once my best alternative to a negotiated resolution moves off that reality (meaning keep my head down and my family will get through this) more options become available. The system is designed to keep a critical majority on the wheel.

    We Just Got More Evidence That Long COVID Is a Brain Injury

    Jump

  • How do you know that the majority of people with Long COVID were vaccinated. This 2023 study says

    Current studies suggest that covid-19 vaccines might have protective and therapeutic effects on long covid. More robust comparative observational studies and trials are needed, however, to clearly determine the effectiveness of vaccines in preventing and treating long covid.

  • Childhood vaccination rates, a health bright spot in struggling states, are slipping

    Jump

  • 100% agree with both points. The disconnect is the timeline each considers. As a father I am deeply empathic for the children that are not able to advocate for themselves and the immunocompromised that are basically left to be assaulted by other’s ignorance.

    But longer term, think multigenerational, the higher death rates for the anti-vax crowd may be the correction that leads to better overall outcomes for humanity.

  • Never said or implied that those in power wouldn’t use violence to achieve their goals.

    My point was the group in power will always oppose the use of force by those they oppress while using violence to oppress them.

    As long as one side uses violence (physical, economic, political, etc.) All other sides have to be ready, willing, and able to respond in kind. No one is special. We are all equal.

    The trick those with a monopoly on violence use is disguising their violent acts and then getting those they abuse to shame others into submission.

    If there was a socialist anarchist revolution I think “Fred” as you call him would keep his guard up and fight like he did up to the point the establishment killed him. I think he understood that just because the people next to you are headed in the same direction doesn’t mean you have the same destination.

  • Watch The Murder of Fred Hampton, and tell me how it’s not currently being done by those in power.

    I love your naivety where you think that just because they don’t kill you or your loved ones, because you’re (likely) part of the accepted group, it’s ok to ignore the fact that they kill all the people you don’t care to think about.

    (I have no idea who you are. I just think the counter point to your point is equally valid and deserves consideration)

  • My original comment implied that the world sent a plague in response to Trump. Having trouble understanding the relevance of your comment. But nice try at a point.

    I know reading is hard. You need to group letters to form words and words to form sentences. Take breaks when confused. Use ice or aspirin for any headaches.

  • What's the endgame when the rich have all the money?

    Jump

  • I don’t think you can think of it as some sort of logical plan. It’s a bug, not a feature, of capitalism. What you are describing is the inevitable end of a completely free market with no regulation. The strong (economically) keep taking from the weak until we have the situation you are describing. From there the next step is dependent upon whether the weak form a cohesive identity and seize power (revolution) or stay fractured around smaller identity cleavages (race, religion, gender, etc) and are subjugated.
