  I don’t accept it. But wtf can I do about it? Other than abandon every platform that asks for ID. But I have already done that. Which is why I am here.

    Yeah, it’s very simple. Any website that asks for ID clearly doesn’t want any traffic.

    The problem is the corruption at the level where accepting or not matters. There's always corruption, but competing interests can help dissipate organized attempts at it.

    I haven’t seen a platform ask for it yet.

  Nobody is accepting it, this is the Sociopathic Oligarchs paying the politicians to shove this down our throats.

  Right now, the most effective solution is to stay on a full court offensive press against MAGA, steadily activating every apathetic voter possible, forcing every MAGA to face their fascism, take back Congress in November, and turn it into one enormous investigative body with a thousand tentacles.

  Then we can start putting them in prison for their CRIMES.

  And for those who say the Dems will never do that: Fuck you, YOU are the problem. Instead of signaling that you’ll accept their failure AGAIN, you need to be telling them that they’d better do the jobs we’re electing them to do, OR ELSE!

    Begs the question why a lot of your society idealizes the mechanisms that give rise to those Sociopathic Oligarchs. They didn't spring out of nowhere. Elon Musk is not anyone special. Trump isn't anyone special. It's not a just switch the dial problem, it's a deeply rooted institutional one that will either churn out mild oligarchs at best or wannabe fascists at worst. Trump thrives on an exaggeration of an identity that does exist for a lot of Americans.

    Your current system will never do that, and you've trained yourself to believe the only viable solution that is widely accepted throughout the world, secession, makes you a slave supporter.

  Its happening in the EU too.

    It's following more of an OAuth model in the EU rather than give private-company-selling-your-data-off-to-Palantir model.
