@Tutanota@mastodon.social ha ha ha the number of elite worshipping morons who pretended google was a charity without any ulterior motives giving users tons of storage when gmail first started...

@benroyce@mastodon.social while folks born with privilege (or wealthy enough) get do their song and dance of purity testing and virtue signalling etc, all while waiting for Mamdani, AOC, Bernie etc type candidates to materialise in every electorate so they can vote never compromising on their principals, other folks who don't have their privilege have to pay with their lives. But guess in their eyes they never compromised so someone else dying as a result is not their fault. How is this any different to MAGA.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social as always every accusation in a confession for these morons and sooner everyone treats it as such the better and not pander to meet them in the middle.

@DemocracyMattersALot@mstdn.social those red states must be socialist or communists relying on the capitalist blue states for handouts...

@nixCraft@mastodon.social while everyone is distracted by the incompetence of the Copilot and clowning around by the Claude, Captain Gemini is taking over.

@glyph@mastodon.social I'm more cynical, considering we are rolling back regulations that were written in blood while people are still dying, the elites no longer gives a toss how much blood letting they are willing to do in order to keep the line go up exponentially.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social if a majority of Americans gave 2 cents about executions by "law enforcement" agencies, specially folks of colour, there will be riots and general strikes until these agencies are reformed from grounds up and that number comes down to a zero. Won't happen and any protests by community will be seen as unreasonable and if specially for persons of colour, they will instead attribute some blame like not complying or committing a minor crime so public execution is justified & excused.

@davidgerard@circumstances.run there is no way someone like Linus, no not the real one, the imposter influencer with the squeaky screechy voice would invest in a project unless there is metric tons of cash to be made.

@fdroidorg@floss.social leverage against Google goes out the door when everyone openly support what Apple does under the same disguise. This is a fight that was lost when everyone jumped head first when walled garden for phones was accepted as the best solution for the industry now almost 20 years ago. Kind of saying it is bad because Google also wants to do it now while allowing Apple to do the same is basically hypocrisy even though Google are hypocrites themselves for marketing it as as advantage before.

@hanse_mina@mastodon.social as always right is doing everything to win power and keep it, while the left are too busy purity testing, airing their trauma & virtue signalling while waiting for their perfect unicorn messiah to come along to fart rainbows over their utopia, but hey can tell the grand kids how principled they were never compromising those while the world is burning front of them.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social yet people like this usually would've said they are perfectly happy with the American health insurance swamp before this saga and yell at anyone supporting & wanting to implement universal healthcare a communist socialist...

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social exactly not sure why like during wc2026 finals everyone at Metlife booed him instead of getting a pedo chant going.

@avilewis@mstdn.ca thought "communist" was their more go to gotcha as always.

@Ashedryden@xoxo.zone I still can't believe people are so naive to think this house of cards will collapse and or will be punished like Enron. Look at Tesla, one publicly outed Nazi has kept that con going for over a decade while delivering none of their core premises of FSD but it laid the foundation to become the world's first paper trillionaire. Now when whole bunch of blue chip companies gets together, how long peoole think they will keep this circus going?. As long as they want.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social ha ha ha ha while everyone is too busy chasing the new clippy copilot, captain Gemini is taking over in the background.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social they would if say someone from the Corp Democratic administration did 1% of what their pedo daddy does to a CNN, CBS etc reporter or someone from DSA does 0.00001% of that to FOX, OAN or NewsMax etc reporters.

@inthehands yeah when these billionaires say anything nice that sound good, believing that they want the same for us peasants is the biggest mistake most people make.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social so how many liberals and ones say they are on the left gleefully invested in this scam while praising Starlink at every opportunity and/or still having money tied in his now decade old scam called Tesla . Doesn't matter what one say their core beliefs are, greed instantly overrides all of those "virtues" and just become signalling to make themselves feel superior to others.

@ahimsa_pdx world needs more Luigis to clean these filth out.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social yeah while tons born with the privilege pearl clutches how uncompromisingly principled they are waiting for the purest of the purest of candidates to come along and parties to adopt all their principled positions etc, as always black & brown folks domestically and internationally have to pay with their lives... Guess it is worth the sacrifice in their minds when it isn't their lives in jeopardy everyday.

@davidho@mastodon.world pretty sure I've seen this done in Australia as well, iirc on a home gardening show segment they showed how they relocated some tree to a park.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social is it still not obvious, UN, ICC, World Bank, IMF and even FIFA, are all organisations setup just to give legitimacy for the western neo colonisation project to go on, but with the bonus of its populous feeling good that they are no longer the actual savages. If this report was done against a country not in club west and most importantly with natural resources to pillage, it will be used as the pretext to doing whatever so west can secure it. But hey for Palestinians, crickets.

@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us British media meanwhile... but but a likely communist or socialist Jewish man supports Palestinians and condemns ongoing Israeli genocide of them, so he is antisemitic and not fit to enter parliament as the Green leader, that's a far worse problem for the great British Expire.

@RickiTarr@beige.party but don't worry if you ask them what their solution to this problem they have identified is, majority will happily back the billionaires over actual working class people to solve it, then scratch their heads why it is getting even worse.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Tesla has been doing it for over a decade, SpaceX now for few years, all back of one conman. Now get a whole industry to run a con, how long will it last?.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social yet will vote for their pedo in chief a 4th time... or whichever stooge GOP puts up if that ain't possible.

@baldur but but but China is not a democracy, in Democracies the oligarchy/Epstein class must be left alone to do whatever they want, from paedophilia to mass laying off workers even when making billions in profits while paying almost zero tax.

@z_everson@journa.host but but but Hunter's laptop, is worth trillions, to the oligarchy that is.

@randahl the dictionary definition of oxymoron must include "American Democracy" as a real life example.

@taylorlorenz but that's ok though, if the rich capitalist are the ones funding to spread propaganda and misinfo using the billions of tax cuts they were gifted with and the government doesn't do anything to stop it, that's all above board, democratic, free speech rights and what not. But if another government, most preferably not in club West's good books, spreads the same messages using their means for cheaper, then yeah it's all propaganda and misinformation and is not democratic at all.

@petergleick@fediscience.org don't need to give them the benefit of doubt that no one told them of course they know and don't care but of course will plead ignorance if dragged in font of an inquiry.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social well around here dissing the first row is considered blasphemy by many. Second row they will shit on all day long and third one begrudgingly. Then the last row, if you guys step a mm off their perceived enlightened path, they will immediately take up pitchforks.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social so all those who boycotted the last US elections because of Palestine genocide will boycott this tour, stop supporting the associated sports teams and take the opportunity to protest outside the stadiums in their areas etc. Right?. Right?.

@randahl@mastodon.social Yeah everybody need to vote, not just to win but to make sure candidates win by huge margins, like double digit % so that orange king can't cry fraud which he will definitely do and overturn any close races. Also don't forget ICE etc will ensure voting is rigged so people born with the privilege that is like garlic to these vampires have to make extra effort to get out and vote to counter that.

@cdarwin@c.im no worries, all of these will be sorted after midterms If not, worst case scenario, after 2028, Yeah right, these guys aren't giving up power and a majority will do nothing about it.

@BicycleBen@mas.to i guess the victims weren't Jewish, even if one of the group randomly happened to be one, then the headline would've been "radically" different.

@internetarchive@mastodon.archive.org how long before the current SCOTUS vacates this?

@Oldfartrant@mstdn.ca @ufwupdates@union.place thought it was crystal clear, 2A applied only to use against socialists and communists or any other forms of government that took down the exclusive club of white capitalist elites holding power & wealth.

@FluentInFinance@mastodon.social unfortunately these words are music to the ears of who are waiting to "vote" for the orange p3do turd for a 4th time.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social it was about time they start selling courses on how to make millions from bullshit generators, these hucksters were doing that for everything else came before it and much much more already.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social @GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social This all stem from a duopoly where the other player has a closed ecosystem and profits greatly from that, Google played the useful mirage as the open option for far longer than they needed to and now with no other option left on the table, are giving the middle finger. Maybe regardless how loyal to a slogan or fruit brand, don't let a duopoly take hold, let competition foster, duopoly is worse than a monopoly as people believe that illusion of choice is all that is needed.

@mondoweiss@social.mondoweiss.net "civilised west" meanwhile, there is nothing we can do, we can't ban them from participating in sports, put any sanctions, stop military aid... those measures are only reserved for anyone who isn't in our club.

@corbet@social.kernel.org won't be long before broligargy and its minions in the governments pass a law saying any device not running the corporate overlords software unaltered is a crime, then don't even have to bother to unlock to see supposed unlawful content in it to put one in jail and throw away the key.

@cmconseils who said algorithmic matching doesn't work and is inaccurate, soon it can give them advise how not to get caught, like sneaking in and out of an exhaust port down a long trench that protected by laser turrets...

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social never forget that they will be going right back to supporting pedos & other monsters when diesel prices goes down to something they can afford...

@Flowermob guess he will get confirmed easily then, but don't worry, incoming democratic admin will keep these fascists in place to preserve norms & traditions and what not, unless of course he says something against one nation in this world which even democratic establishment don't tolerate inallegiance to.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social more like what happens when rich capitalist get stupid ideas in their head but thinks them as great visionary ideas that will cement their status as gods and everyone around them basically act as yes men to keep their own status and wealth, if it was too hard to understand from the originals, sequels definitely didn't have one underpaid IT guy bringing the park down.

@SecureOwl um, they can get Captain Gemini and Copilot to fly the planes while Clown Claude provides the entertainment... What can go wrong with such brilliant use of AI .

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social ah the only DEI that is American as the Apple Pie, where the most psychotic are guaranteed employment in law enforcement, even not born with privilege usually don't discriminate getting hired but having will guarantee no punishment afterwards.

@evacide@hachyderm.io ah the only DEI USA does so well, yes giving mentally insane who won't get any other job a career, pensions, badge of authority, a gun & qualified immunity (guess it is valid defence as they lack the mental faculty of normal people)... wonders why they keep doing illegal shit.
