It’s one of life’s great mysteries, isn’t it? Why ARE we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or is there really a God, watching everything. Y’know, with a plan for us and stuff? I dunno, man. But it keeps me up at night.

I dunno, huck an old, unabridged dictionary at him hard enough, and he’d probably go down.

How is it enforced? A bounty system would work. 10% of any funds collected or forfeited.

No body will be executed. They’ll all figure out how to pry open their wallets and portfolios within the 90-day amnesty window.

No exceptions. It’s not hard to become less wealthy. The only allowance I’d offer is a warning 90 days in advance that continued retention of their obscene wealth will become a capital offense. They can unload their excess in that time frame and keep their heads.

Bullshit.

“Stocks” are “ownership of the means of production”.

You absolutely can feed yourself on your share of “the means of production”.

We gather the top 8 and tell them #9 is being promoted to #1, either through a wealth tax, or a head tax.

Repeat at least annually.

Government is also the entity that will be prosecuting/persecuting you when they don’t like what you have to say.

Not with that attitude.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Nothing good comes from antagonizing ICE directly. You will not stop a single person from being kidnapped by confronting ICE directly. They’ll just go back and get more funding, more manpower, more resources, more militarization, and more and more people will be kidnapped. So it’s not really like treating the cough with Robitussin. It’s more like treating it with cocaine. Or asbestos.

If “Slashing Tires” is your level of commitment, you’re better off slashing the tires of a random millionaire. Instead of ICE demanding more resources for their operations, that millionaire will demand resources be diverted to protecting their cars instead of abducting people. Meanwhile, we all cheer every time we read about a 1% being targeted.

I will absolutely judge people for their wasted, wasteful, and futile efforts. Trying to target ICE agents just ensures you’ll be locked up or dead. You won’t stop any immigration action. You won’t spare a single victim from being persecuted. You’ll just serve as a warning to everyone else not to resist.

If you’re choosing violence, choose an effective target.

You are wrong.

Eating enough rich people stops everyone’s friends from being kidnapped.

Don’t fight the puppet. Guillotine the puppeteer.

You don’t knife tires to fight back against ICE.

ICE is the symptom, not the disease. If ICE was a persistent cough, knifing tires is treating it with Robitussin. Except that this particular cough is caused by tuberculosis, and the Robitussin will just make you feel better. While you die.

You need to treat the disease, not the symptom. To fight back against ICE, barbecue a billionaire.

Long ago, yes, but not by 1989.

Agreed. Seems we’re losing the distinction between “one-to-many” (broadcast) and “one-to-one” (streaming) transmission models.

Self defense is predicated on the “reasonable person” standard. Anyone finding themselves (or another) imperiled by what they reasonably believe to be a machine gun is justified in doing anything they reasonably believe necessary to end the threat.

So 20 miles per hour across 24 hours gets us a distance of 480 miles.

Going from Europe to the Americas by way of Scotland and Iceland is going to be a bit of a problem for that bird, as it can expect pretty consistent 10-20kt headwinds for the entire journey. America to Europe by that route is a comparatively easy trip.

I doubt that owls are capable of effective dynamic soaring, but that would drastically reduce the energy requirements.

They don’t need the cooperation of telecom providers. They receive the same signal you send to the cell tower. Even if the signal is encrypted so they can’t see what you are sending, they can identify that you are sending.

With enough receivers listening, they can identify your location to a pretty high accuracy.

Privacy policies are irrelevant here. They are picking up unique data as your phone communicates with a cell tower. You can do it with a $15 RTL-SDR receiver.

Get a hundred receivers and you can pinpoint anybody in a city.
