There’s a part of me that has become annoyed that i’m forced to pay for a vpn to now access the entirety of the internet. I don’t blame the vpn provider, though. --Nope, they are not the ones I blame…

Terrorism is when you do it. Politics is when the establishment does it.

I think you’re right but it’s easy to forget the onslaught of scandals he was reported on having during his last administration. By the time he lost the election it was multiple scandals per week.

I think if i dig through my records I can find a federal subpoena from 2016. A LEO had to formally come to my door to confirm I received it but the prosecutor sent it to me via email.

cool

last year when a number of states started to effectively ban adult content.

-You could also argue it happened a lot sooner over a decade back when every high traffic website started transforming into a walled garden.

If the concentration camps were started during the Obama administration and (nobody cared), then were operated during the first Trump admin and (the only caring-concern was performative) then they continued to operate under the Biden admin (while still nobody cared) then why would people suddenly start caring now?

BTW I’m referring to the immigrant concentration camps near the border. What ones are you referring to?

So many Harris voters getting their faces eaten right now. They wanted genocide and a loss of civil rights before they’d ever support an actual leftist candidate like Stein. now they got it!

why not both?

Yeah but the engines of capitalism & infinite growth in a finite world gotta go brrr.

I’ve never trusted Russia Today to be a fact based news source and more importantly it’s been a long time since I’ve trusted CBS to report on anything that isn’t 100% motivated by their own self-interested drive for profit.

TLDR:

Neither news source involved are known to me to be particularly trustworthy.
