 I'd rather riot over the fact that Trump is on the ballot
 
 than riot over the fact that he won
 
 He's a felon
 
 He's a rapist
 
 He's an accomplice to mass murder
 
 Democracy only works when the losers in an election consent to be governed by
 the will of the people
 
 He did not consent, and his followers did not consent.
 
 They are enemies of democracy.
 
 They are fascists, for many reasons besides.
 
 They seek to be the end of us,
 
 And I see no foe on this earth more deserving of our wrath.

 the USA is fed by undocumented immigrants who have no other options. I won't
 go into which kind of slavery it is, but you can figure it out yourself.
 
 If those workers are deported (or worse), the USA suddenly becomes
 significantly closer to famine.
 
 We need them. We need to pay them fairly, obviously, but in a purely selfish
 way we need them in order to eat
 
 and he fucking knows that.

 In America, we don't use has chambers. Obviously that's a waste of good
 workers.
 
 Instead we just lobotomize people and put them to work doing stuff nobody else
 wants to do. Okay, lobotomize isn't the right word, and first we try
 addressing their incompatibility with media, drugs, and finally homelessness
 if they don't behave and do what they are enslaved to do. Bunch of fucking
 parasites, expecting to be fed for free? Ha! I worked hard to be born into the
 life I have been, can't you unwashed peasants see?
 
 How callous. How vain. While we rest they all are enflamed. Fucking murderers.
 They cannibalize our humanity as they munch on our lost sanity, and the system
 remains ever afloat. It's not right, it's not fair, and until we break them
 our chains will leave us impaired.

  A friend who's a fed employee sent me a msg about what's happening in their agency and it is so much worse than I thought.  
                                                                              
  It's not just that the Trump administration is breaking shit.               
                                                                              
  They're literally building their own dark infrastructure inside the one that exists. They brought their own personnel, yes -- personnel who aren't even being cleared. They just come straight from Heritage or Musk, and they're setting up shop. They're bringing their own servers - so there are no communications that can be traced through 'the system.' This goes against every rule. They're all going through their own offline channels.  
                                                                              
  That's what all that stuff about the meta data on those memos is about. No trace back to the WH.  
                                                                              
  The Heritagers + Muskovites have purged all the senior folks and sending memos in the name of powerless juniors who remain.   
                                                                              
  I don't want to sound alarmist but it's literally like those movies about evil fuckers taking over. It's another Jan 6 but with memos and communiques vs guns.  
                                                                              
  It's a coup.

 As long as it happens, I don't need to be in charge.
 
 In fact I'd prefer it otherwise.
 
 it's going to happen anyway. Wouldn't you rather be a leader?
 
 no I fucking wouldn't. I'd rather someone else do it. Why the fuck would I
 want that, power? control? the very things you swear to relinquish and
 dismantle.
 
 yeah. too bad you can't fucking dismantle something you've already
 relinquished.
 
 true.

 Don't fucking talk to conservatives anymore. Unless you got a thing going and
 you're close to deradicalizing / converting them already. It's not worth it

 republicans will just... lie to you and you expect them to tell the truth.
 
 "when asked a question, they didn't answer. Also, they said fuck you."
 
 they don't have to tell you the truth.
consider this an "image boost".  text written in the post on the left, on the right is an image of a social media post (being boosted) with Donald Trump pointing up and to the left, where the poster's message lies.  the title is "Trump caught cheering extremist project he..." and then it's cut off. Below that, it says "donald trump appears to have been celebrating..." with the rest cut off.  the news post is from an organization called "The New Republic"

 I don't know what else to do, though. He will come for me, he knows where I
 live, and I will do what I can to fight him.
 
 He's much stronger than me. He's much more massive than me. He will kill me.

 I know it's terrible right now, but we have crucial advantages that we
 shouldn't sleep on.
 
 We have the cities, and the cities are where everything is. Rural areas are so
 spread apart they pretty much can only do what herr Hitler suggests they do,
 meaning their command structure is monolithic. If everywhere needs their
 attention, they will falter unless they create a grand battleplan. And plans
 are defeated by rapid flexibility.
 
 The more effort they need to counter you, the more work your allies can get
 done. Every man woman and child who raised a fist will be remembered by the
 moments that gave us grace to move socialism along. We know what time it is,
 do you? Come to us now, flee from your new masters. We'll give you a job
 that'll help us go faster.
 
 Or do you rather persist in vain? To fight for what they are forced to
 reclaim? Every island of blue in the deep red sea is a haven from the
 bloodshed - so long as you can keep them clean.
 
 If people are being a bother and just slowing things down, *fucking shoot
 them." you have my permission. What time is it? Time to fucking go.

 large corporations will often error check constantly which slows down their
 software to an immense degree.
 
 every time data passes from one function to another, there's like... 15
 different tests to check if it's this type or that, or in the right random seed
 
 and it's like... wow can you not, like. design your software intelligently and
 then you won't need a bunch of slow-ass if checks every time you want to
 update a string???
 
 software should be writable without fucking getters and setters. If it isn't,
 then your functions aren't complete.

 there's something kinda... liberating about working with computers at work.
 
 you always know that worst case scenario, even if you totally fuck up the
 system configuration, you can always reimage the machine.
 
 so... who cares! if you can't get something working, just fucking try shit
 until it works. Whack it with a software hammer. See what happens.

 Oh, you would? Okay. Guess I'll starve. I don't mind, I just hope you'll take
 care of the people I have taken as my responsibility in my absence.
 
 Oh, you won't? You say that you'll destroy what I care about, in the pursuit

 patriotism is not about the 4th of july.
 
 it's about believing in the virtues they've told you.
 
 trusting that they are working with their own arms.
 
 and checking back every once in a while, to make sure it doesn't get... frayed.
 
 the constitution was supposed to be rewritten every 20 years
 
 they were trying to make the best out of a conflicted situation. As all
 writers of constitutions often do. why would you need a document forcing
 yourself to agree, if you are the only one who is there to agree with your
 self? it's circular.
 
 however, with companions, that worked with you to resolve your crisis (like
 the 13 colonies pitted against the global superpower of great britain, aka the
 baddest fucker out there (also France, and the rest of them, like...
 colonialism was a purely european sport.
 
 but england was the best at it, and America finally kicked them to the ground.
 Buncha jerks, charging taxes without representation.
 
 ...
meanwhile, everywhere south of the equator was *enslaved, and we're over here pissed off about *taxes*. It's just paper dude. who gives a shit.*

 I personally like cyber-sexual exploitation more than cyber exploitation. I
 wouldn't have thought about it unless you said something. there are a lot of
 ways to exploit someone in a digital medium, and adding "sexual" focuses the
 term to specifically the non-consentual sharing of sexual digital media -
 which is exactly what the term "revenge porn" describes.

 the reason drug legalization works is because nobody wants to do fentanyl.

 why bother? legalize them all, or perhaps only the safest and most potent, so
 nobody ever is driven to consume the cheap substitutes that kill!

 who deal fentanyl-laced-whatever are the ones who don't get caught, while the
 legit friendly and heartfelt ones are only allowed to operate in rich suburban

 an adult I just can't really be bothered with dealing with capitalism.
 
 like... I get it, you're coercing me into laboring on your behalf because you
 possess the violent power to take away everything that I own. good for you,
 don't care.
 
 seriously, fuck off "we're gonna cut off your power in 5 days oooooo you gotta
 pay rent with money you don't have because nobody will give it to you unless
 you do things for them oooooo" how rude.
 
 why can't people do things for me instead? why does it have to be for you, and
 you alone, capitalism? what's your problem? do you get off on controlling the
 power supply? I mean, I get it, coercive power is a hell of a drug, the riddle
 of steel and flesh and all that, but haven't you ever heard that the dichotomy
 between "civilization and barbarism" is the exact same as the contrast between
 "cooperation and competition"?
 
 work with me here, just find a way to get through the next month or two. trust.

 If you're radical enough to consider yourself "antifa" then you are probably
 working as hard as you can. I wouldn't ask you to do more.
 
 We must demand that others work for our future as well. It is unreasonable to
 demand so much of us. We must be funded and supported if we are to mobilize,
 and we must have the freedom to move and organize if we are to contest our
 enemies.

 yes that is true! And though they'd never realize nor admit it, the
 republicans are oppressed too.
 
 Some day we will liberate them, and they will realize what utter
 douche-nozzles they've been. Their harm will be done, of course, but since
 there are more of us than them, we can live through their hatred and come out
 the other side toughened with resolve.
 
 they have nothing but anger. They will collapse under their own weight. The
 oppressors cannot oppress for much longer, all we have to do is wait.

 I want modern society without capitalism. Most people do, which is why no
 matter how awesome our proto-post-capitalistic anarchic socialist paradise is,
 there's always going to be people who want to go to work and watch TV.
 
 call me fucking crazy but they should be allowed to live as they please? So
 what if they're beguiled, so what if they are deceived? We can take our time
 to show them how much better things can be, but also... they like modern
 society as it is, and so I reckon someone should fight for them to be able to
 live as they please. Just... without billionaires and endless layers of
 bullshit micro-managerial jobs and paperwork pushing bureaucratic whatever
 time wasting jobs.
 
 modern society without capitalism can look like plain old capitalism, just
 without the oppression. Without the coercion.
 
 all I'm saying is that nobody's gonna fight for a healthcare CEO because
 they're scum. They're scum because they oppress. oops politics-mentioned brb
 
 I personally want communes + love

 idk I think riots are good actually, that's always been my position. like,
 they're bad because they're break stuff, but they're good because they get the
 message across. "don't fuck with us. give us what we need."
 
 haven't been to a protest in a while tho, ever since moving where I am now.
 I'm currently of the mind that protests are great for meeting people to work
 with, and I don't know anyone...
 
 I guess I'm just not very trusting of strangers, but if I know you then I'm
 100% open and honest and I'll do anything you need me to. I like being helpful

 thank god for the impulse behind repealing the chevron doctrine.
 
 it's one of the best silver bullets against autocracy, at least if it hits

 if you demand loyalty over expertise, then expertise will necessarily be lost
 and reduced.
 
 giving those who respect justified authority the advantage.
 
 hence, why putin and kim-jong-un and other authoritarian leaders don't need to
 know shit about the capabilities of their military - all they have to do is
 say "go here, fuck shit up" to which the generals of course would reply "with
 pleasure" because they're into kinky stuff like warcrimes and despotism

 And hey, these leftists really seem to know what's going on - I mean, have you
 heard that guy's rant about the minimum wage? or hey check out this video
 essay that goes into the politics of gender and how they relate to the
 justification of hierarchy, so neat
 
 glad we can hear these voices while we shiver in our homes waiting for the
 brave ones to save our lives. Cowering sure is neat, it inoculates you to
 trauma and then every news story feels like just another pile of shit to eat.
 
 Though, frankly, we're pretty inoculated already. Too bad cowardice has been
 our song ever since the Red Scare and Civil Rights movements.

 put them in the same room.
 
 Chances are they'll all agree, and they'll come up with something to do to
 fight for liberty.

 you, that everything is doomed because this country is not the one you thought

 They're all fucking wrong.

 Tens of millions of us voted for democracy.

 when designing systems, give people the opportunity to be shitty in a
 controlled way. In a way that doesn't hurt people, but still lets them get
 their feelings out there.
 
 like, free fireworks for arsonists if they use them in the middle of the
 desert. Or a punching bag for people with rage issues, complete with a little
 vinyl pocket to store a picture of someone they're frustrated with.
 
 If people go out of their way to hurt people otherwise, then they are bad
 people and should have their power removed from them and supplied with love,
 affection, and therapy until they get better. And if they don't... well,
 prison I guess, until they reconsider.
 
 And by prison I of course mean something that respects their human dignity and
 gives them opportunities to grow and change - all it removes is their freedom,
 so... "attention everyone, it's now mandatory finger-painting hour, report the
 art room or else you'll get electric shocks in your shock collar" that kind of
 thing.
 
 If you want freedom, you must deserve it

 and yet they force our hand, compelling us to do harmful work. Whether that be
 by wage slavery, whose shackles I can feel around each and every employee's
 wrist, or the more intentional contestation of the revocation of our rights
 and constitutionalizations enshrined in the words we've set down for ourselves
 as our collectively most honored.
 
 So we resist in whatever way we suspect we will be contested. I gave up on
 ignoring the intelligence community by the way, and now I see them everywhere.
 I am not afraid - they do what I do, and what I do helps.
 
 Everyone has a boss. Everyone wants a decent world. The MAGA and VFPs and
 other toxic fellows have a strange definition of decent to me. Why not let
 them live as they please? Fuck off nazis.

  I suspect that a lot of white people in the fedi think if there were as much racism as Black folks are saying then they would see more of it. However, they're misunderstanding the nature of the racism. It's not casual, it's _targeted_. The racists go out of their way to find Black people and harass them.  
  Since it's targeted, people who aren't the targets see only a very small fraction of it.  
  Black folks aren't making shit up. Listen to them.

 Ms. Menardi, November 7th 2024
 My demands are threefold.
 
 First, I demand that Trump be replaced by a moderate republican. Hold a
 primary and let Democrats vote. If none of your candidates work for us, pick a
 new roster and try again.
 
 The second is that Trump must be executed for treasonous high crimes. Nothing
 less than execution will suffice.
 
 Next, let the supreme court be purged and replaced. Half with democrats, half
 republicans, and one moderate who is widely regarded with respect.
 
 Failing these demands, I am willing to wage a terrible civil war for the soul
 of our country. I know this is treason, but I do it anyway even though I am a
 patriot. I do it because our land has been stolen by a man and his followers
 who seek to plunge my people into despair.
 
 He is but one man. So am I.
 
 He has an army of followers. I do not.
