Even on “safe” planets, the average person is basically a slave doing endless, arduous labor with no concern for their lives or well-being, all under the merciless thumb of Imperial dogma. It’s just a bad place to end up.

Border Patrol reportedly told them they were working from an anonymous tip tied to the previous owners of the home, who lived there two years ago.

Remember every single worm who informed on their neighbors.

Once again, it is not hyperbole to say that Republicans want to kill you.

Once again, if you are physically and mentally able, you should be arming yourself to the best of your ability for the day when they are emboldened to act out their violent delusions en masse. And that day may come sooner than you think, as it has with every fascist milestone thus far.

Even if they aren’t slaughtered on the spot, they would become a most-wanted fugitive and their normal life would be over. Kristi Noem would be proud to announce on Fox that the standing orders for the manhunt were to shoot them dead on sight. They would have to hide in the woods or some other concealed place and at least be familiar with SERE concepts if they wanted to survive another 72 hours.

It reads like any self-righteous copypasta, which it may be. I guess people are downvoting based on how seriously they’re taking it.

Idiocracy was a mediocre stoner comedy that I think we’ve come to expect too much of as some sort of biting social commentary.

The people making these decisions are, for the most part, not stupid. Myopic, maybe. But mostly they’re just psychopaths, which is a bigger problem than even stupidity.

Once a fully-automated economy comes to fruition (or at least the perception of one), billionaires think they are the only individuals enlightened and valuable enough to be worthy of its boons. Once they no longer need our labor or our consumption, we are just chaff.

“Allahu ackbar” - same shit, different tribe

They’ll take it as a challenge to their authority and specifically target them, just like sanctuary cities and states. I hope those businesses have funds for renovations after a SWAT entry team has their way with them.

Israel and its enforcers are operating in a euphoric mental state. For an abuser it’s a rush to be able to abuse people openly and get away with it, rather than having to conceal and twist logic. They know that so long as they have the paid for blessing of the United States and its bloated military, nobody can realistically hold them accountable.

We have IDF soldiers openly admitting to killing unarmed civilians on social media. It’s all euphoria and arrogance.

Garden won’t do you any good if someone with a gun can take it from you.

Without more context it’s hard to pass judgement. Were the victims hit by pass-through shots on the attacker or a wall? Did the firearms officer straight up miss? Were they using their handgun or their carbine?

The real difference will be if they hold the firearms officer accountable, for negligence if nothing else.

SOCOM has been doing almost nothing but counterinsurgency for the past 20-something years. Their purpose would probably be to hunt and kill people who do things like shoot conservative podcasters in the throat, particularly if instead of turning themselves in, they headed into the woods and became a fugitive who may have other targets planned.

Evading a police manhunt is one thing, evading a special operations death squad is another.

I seem to remember the secdef from Trump 1 relieving the captain of an aircraft carrier of his command because he made public that there was a COVID outbreak on board and no accommodations were being made. It culminated with Secdef Shitheel getting on the intercom of this carrier and belittling the former captain in front of the entire crew. There’s videos some of the crew took.

I don’t even remember this guy’s name, but I do remember that, like Hegseth, he had little military experience to speak of. Most of his career was corporate management or something.

That’s what this admin loves. Worthless corpos and shitheel influencers belittling and browbeating the people who actually hold things together.

Now this is shitposting

Should just black bar all the words on the bottom and write “pedophilia” over them.

They’ll blame the parents, seriously. For entering illegally and “creating the situation.”

“The rule of law” and the people who carry it out are just forces of nature and have no free will or choice in the matter, let alone accountability, of course.

Maybe not, up to a point where he won’t have a police force anymore. Even then, they’ll quickly get re-hired as white trash Gestapo, and then what?

No. Police across the board are optimistically 70% MAGA, more realistically 80-90%.

So they only even began to realize there was a spill when they weren’t pulling enough product out of the ground, i.e. they weren’t generating the expected profit, am I reading that right?
