A cashless society means your overlords will have COMPLETE control of your lives. Of course the oligarchs will have secret avenues of cash for themselves.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Seriously, if you are AWARE of propaganda, you are also aware that you have been influenced by it. Propaganda is pervasive in civilizations. It is simply manipulation. TV ads and guys trying to pick up chicks are everyday uses of propaganda.

The game, “Kiss, Marry, Kill”.
- Comment on You are not living in reality if you do not see the huge difference between THEN and NOW 1 month ago:
In reality many people who were boomers lived in shacks, some with no plumbing and dirt floors, until the 60’s when liberal economics began to fully kick in. Reagan, and Republicans have schemed very hard to bring back those "good old days’. Try reading some actual history of that time. Bonus, if you actually talk to a boomer who lived through hard times.

“My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right.” - Carl Schurz:
It’s our civic duty to make our country better.
Some people may need to move because because they aren’t safe here right now.
Some people need to be removed, one way or another.
- Comment on Terrorists 2 months ago:
Add mass murderers, insurrectionist militias and extortionists to the serial killer list that are being sidelined for car vandals and immigrants.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 2 months ago:
the DNC is the last place to find actual conservatives these days.
There is a good reason for this. Money to win elections comes from CONSERVATIVE corporations and populism isn’t on their wish list.

Nearly $3 billion USD flowed through the TRUMP cryptocoin
But wait, there’s more. Us taxpayer money will now be used to “invest” in these crypto scams.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Didn’t they say climate change was a hoax or was that just for their brain dead cult followers? Amazing how easily they are manipulated. It’s like Republicans captured all the media then spewed shit to dominate them, but hey, it works magnificently.

Hold off. Kraznov is getting so much shit he is going to walk it back, so he says. Can’t trust him any more than a rabid bat though.
- Comment on What are the democrats actually doing to help? 2 months ago:
Perhaps a better question is, “What are you doing to help?”.
Supporting a national strike, canceling Amazon, leaving FB, might be a good start. Contacting you representative who doesn’t represent you seems to be futile. Maybe flash protests? - Comment on A monolithic and ruthless conspiracy: What was John F. Kennedy referring to? 2 months ago:
Probably the oligarchs. They have been trying to install fascist dictatorships for a very long time.
- Comment on why are they called “popular girls” if they’re typically not friends with anyone outside their small friend group? 2 months ago:
Mostly sales and the self projection of being "cool.
- Comment on where we putting these? 2 months ago:
Even Temu has tons of them.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 3 months ago:
The culture of incompetence, crime, failure, and collapse will become normalized? Not on my turf.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 3 months ago:
You are being way too optimistic. A lot of people will needlessly die, not only from violence but also disease, starvation, suicide and natural disasters.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
People will be in danger either way with the violence prone goons in power. If you are armed, there will be justification to shoot you. Protest at more public and friendly places. That way you will likely have allies nearby. Also, folks need to be situationally aware and plan an escape path if things turn too dangerous.
- Comment on Electoral politics doesn't get the job done 3 months ago:
We need a general strike that doesn’t end until the government capitulates to the needs of the people
Many cannot afford to strike but that is the way the system was set up but we only need 10% participation to send a powerful message - any more is icing on the cake. Those who cannot fully can participate by cutting back 10% or more. Everyone should be able to cut back to some extent. Yet, expect the corporate controlled MSM to NOT report on the effects or participation of a general strike. Look for your news on independent sites, some reliable foreign sources and the Fediverse only.
- Comment on Europeans watching US/CA relations implode 3 months ago:
Putin’s long plan is coming together magnificently. He started with just one useful idiot, expanded to the whole Republican party and a third of the U.S. population.
- Comment on Should have seen it coming 3 months ago:
Thanks to U.S. stupidity, greed and a certain felon, China will assume the position of the number one world leader very, very soon.
- Comment on Gimme some evidence that anyone at all in the government is pushing back on Trump with any effectiveness at all. Someone throw me a bone here. 😬 3 months ago:
One BIG thing to consider is that in other countries citizens weren’t nearly as well armed as the U.S.
- Comment on Maybe, just maybe, a company that refuses to give you time off if you have a bullet inside of you is a really really shitty company 4 months ago:
weird there aren’t more Mario bros around in the US.
Give it a little more time. When the militia folks realize that they have been had they won’t be happy.
- Comment on what unbiased media sources do you use? 4 months ago:
All corporate news has been moved to the right, even NPR. For all practical purposes, local news has been eliminated. Local news formed the basis for trust and truth. Getting you news at a local ground level creates trust - you may know the reporter or you kids go to school with his kids. There is nothing wrong with news bias if you have sources that you can trust to report the truth and not omit critical information. That said, seek out and listen to people like Timothy Snyder, who have important messages. Here’s a clip of him talking about how the internet has changed and corrupted our news and views.
I like listening to Belle of the Ranch, because she succinctly explains important topics that the MSM does not - note she does present views from a more leftist angle.
Steve Shives is a Youtuber does not report the news but offers opinion that might inspire you to do further research. Finding good reliable news sources takes work, while junk news is cheap, readily available and detrimental to you. - Comment on If the US dissolves for whatever reason and goes into a state of anarchy what would happen to the rest of the world? 5 months ago:
Stay tune. We are headed that way.
- Comment on I am a very liberal person and I have very liberal children, except for one. I'm pretty sure my Gen Z son has been taken in by fascist doctrine. What can I get him for Christmas? 5 months ago:
Love will conquer all the hatred
Not only that, but the hatred on the right will consume them. Sit back, lay low, don’t participate and let the fools burn themselves. Opposition will only give them targets to blame for their failures.
- Comment on Black mold growing on the dispensers at my local McDonald's 8 months ago:
Toxic black mold is a greenish-black gelatinous mold. It is not really black. Mold is not healthy and some people have severe negative reactions to regular black molds though.
- Comment on Illegal voting by noncitizens is rare, yet Republicans are making it a major issue this election 8 months ago:
And the chuds will eat it up.
Really feel sorry for the orange cult folks. They are incredibly ignorant and gullible to the point of being their own worst enemy. Demons will gather up their souls one day because nothing else tolerates such filth.
- Comment on Why is Kamala Harris being held at such a higher standard than Trump this election? 8 months ago:
Well, yeah, thanks to Fox entertainment.
- Comment on Every part of the foxglove is poisonous. It'll literally stop your heart. 9 months ago:
Castor
Wouldn’t do it because it could be deadly due to the ricin in it.
- Comment on why isn't anyone calling for Trump to drop out. 10 months ago:
holding your nose and voting for him anyway
Funny, because Joe Biden’s policies are popular with Democrats AND Republicans. The MSM, one the other hand, seems to believe everyone wants a dictatorship so they are attacking Joe Biden for bullshit reasons. Make no mistake, the right will seize power and end your freedom.
