If only there were some way to change the ancient text. Some sort of amend-sion. Surely our benevolent leaders would have figured something like that out by now. I guess we’ll just have to keep voting and hoping every four years

Like how bills that goes away our rights tend to have names that sound like they expand them

I just read that the Indian government told it’s citizens to leave Pakistan if they’re there. Isn’t India a close partner to China? Would India see this in a negative light?

Blackrock owns the most shares too 🤡

It’s a logical conclusion from quack, imo. It’s the second thing that came to my mind after the obvious ‘oh duh cause he’s Russias agent’

I was going to link you to a wikipedia article titled CIA controversies but took the time to name a few of the more flagrant episodes by them and the FBI which would be more interesting to learn about.

Operation north wood, midnight climax, mk ultra, project mockingbird, cointelpro, operation chaos, the church committee reports.

Reading about just a few of these should start to reveal that skepticism regarding the intent and methodology of the US gov is a valid response and not necessarily in line with ‘conspiracy theory bullshit.’

I see what you mean. I would explain my logic as such:

1. These agencies have a consistent history of misleading populaces at home and abroad, through tactics such as the one mentioned above.

2. Part of their work is to hide/destroy evidence of falsehood.

3. At one of the most turbulent times in decades, the chances of their clandestine participation in the way we view the world is all but assured.

So it’s more of a recognition of a pattern than outright speculation. The alternative view that the US gov is not engaged in these activities domestically seems more far-fetched to me. Not impossible, just out of character.

That’s an assumption you’re making and then simply declaring to be self-evident.

It’s self evident to anyone who reads the things that have been released regarding past events.

The US government has consistently relied on misleading it’s populace as a tactic. If you genuinely don’t believe this and want examples to digest with an open mind, id be glad to throw some out.

Chances that a US 3 letter agency has conducted clandestine operations within the country (aimed at misleading it’s own populace) in the past 5 years are pretty much a certainty.

Speculation is pretty much all one can do for these because the evidence is deliberately and professionally hidden. Such evidence may never be available to the public and usually takes time to surface.

I see it as your typical big investor bait and switch. Start off with promise, and then once you have society hooked and it’s necessary for businesses normal everyday functions, they remove the value by increasing cc fees. It’s already happening.

Maybe one day we’ll get credit cards with screens for ads. Watch an ad to swipe your card today 🙂

I can’t imagine the fucked up shit that would happen if the central bankers ever got their hands on a centralized digital currency. No conspiracy or illuminati shit, just out of general enshitification it would end badly for the workers.

I wonder which US state most closely resembles this. Probably in the NE

I think it was CS Lewis that said that ultimately, the only expression of free will is to choose to love God.

Most of the core questions of life are answered paradoxically. If there was a simple answer, the questions would need not be asked.

Thank you for this

I imagine they don’t want to stick around too long

I’d like to take the part of the baby churning plan where a homemaker is part of each household. Like, subtract the misogyny where it’s automatically assumed it would be the woman but households with children take a lot of work.

Papers. Show me your papers.

Legit response, your down votes are undeserved lol

Yeah I read somewhere that, in Russian culture, the more absurd the cover up story the more insulting it is meant to be for the victim.

Like if someone “shot themselves 3 times in the back of the head then fell out of a window”. Maybe Epstein fits into that too

Anyone know the term for what was described in the article as “people don’t know what’s real anymore” ?

I know the subject has long been prophesized by tech enthusiasts as the inevitable result of competing echo chambers but seeing it happen in front of our eyes hits different.
