Great scroll until you reach the 1930’s and start getting more and more “Image restricted due to copyright” and have to start clicking through to external sites. I will bookmark it though, for a day when I can be bothered to open each photo individually.

we’ll give you a pass.

I don’t need your pass, my point is perfectly clear, you’ve contributed nothing to the conversation

He’s already won the election. He doesn’t have to keep posturing like this.

That was never his end goal, and you’re naive to think otherwise.

As for the rest, you’re missing a key step - to get them all “deported”, first they need to be rounded up, and put in camps (we already past this point a while back), and then since they’re already in camps, they might as well be put to work. For free (another point we’ve past). When they start dying off in big enough numbers for it to affect production, there will be another group marked for “deportation” and rounded up for their turn.

This isn’t fascism’s first fucking rodeo, and it isn’t only now getting started, it has been in motion for a good while now.

All I can say to this bizarre reply is that the whitewashed version of history (never mind current events, since some of those conflicts are still ongoing, violently, today) you were taught at school, or hear about in the msm isn’t the reality, and that none of those conflicts were fucking peaceful, or came to a conclusion because those in power just decided to give it up.

Pick up a fucking book (or watch a video, or listen to a podcast, however you take information in, go and do that, but only if you can cope with challenging your bias, otherwise it becomes a completely pointless exercise)

E: Like, honestly, do you seriously believe there is any point in talking to Putin? Do you think an open and proud totalitarian known for throwing his opponents out of windows is a trustworthy person who will have good faith and stay true to his word? Do you fucking hear yourself???

Lmfao, where did I even imply that? Talk about projecting… 😂😂😂

I’m not sure who “you people” are, but at no point did I claim to know what’s best, but I sure as fuck know, from knowing history and paying attention, that tyranny doesn’t go away by asking nicely. Never has, never will.

So a better question would be wtf is with you claiming you know anything at all about global conflict or fascism? Its like you’re larping as a wilfully ignorant and overly confident centrist who is happy to lay others lives on the line and let war rage on as long as we aren’t mean to a dictator. 🙄

The idea that it is possible to “diplomacy” your way out of conflict with a dictator is so absurd I want to laugh my ass off, but unfortunately it isn’t funny at all.

Putin will happily send every last Russian in to the meat grinder before he accept defeat, and now that he has his American buddy back in place, now with added musk funds, it is seriously delusional to think the situation is going to do anything other than escalate.

Zelenskyy is being beyond naive at best (I honestly don’t believe he believes in what he’s saying).

You’ve already had some great replies, but in case you want to watch something rather than read, in addition to the Leah Remini documentary series, Louis Theroux also made a documentary (I’m pretty sure there were earlier ones, but the current one is dominating the search results and I can’t find them on wiki or imdb) that is very good.

Unless you can ask a straight man how many guys he’s slept with, it isn’t gender neutral, no matter how resistant to this fact you are.

E: the fact that neither of you give a shit about the people telling you the term isn’t gender neutral, doesn’t apply to us, and that we don’t feel comfortable with you using it to speak to or about us says it all. No matter how much mental gymnastics you do to convince yourself otherwise you are the ones choosing to be the problem instead of actually listening to others and showing some basic respect. It’s an easy fix, too - all you have to do is give a minimal fuck about others.

I know it’s easier said than done, but try to find work that actually helps your community, but that you also find fulfilling - child, elderly, and or disabled care, working for a charity doing anything from fundraising to cooking to IT, working in a community centre or library, coaching, teaching, handy-work, gardening, and on and on. The pay may not be as high as it is other places, but at least you’ll know that you’re contributing to your community in a positive way.

Bonus points if the place you work is a non-profit, unionised, a co-op, or generally outside of the existing establishment (E: so not part of the state or a large corporation) - building dual power is imperative to changing society, we need communal structures and networks to fall back on once this shit collapses. You can be part of that.

E: while we’re here, Mutual Aid

The literal meaning isn’t gender neutral, but in actual practice, it 100% is.

The “sudden” realisation of corporations and publications and celebrities that now xitter is bad, but a month ago it was fine, is one of the thinner veils I’ve seen for a while, and there are a lot of thin veils going around.

The truth is, they only care once their income (or other personal interest) is potentially threatened, not a millisecond sooner, and definitely not about the bigotry that’s always been on there, but which has been completely undeniable for a good couple of years now, and which they were happy to turn a blind eye to this long.

If you think these people are allies, you’re giving them waaaaaaay too much credit.

“I tried hanging out with the Nazis, but they’re just too toxic”

Honestly… 🙄🙄🙄

Exactly.

I think a version of “DANGER! Nuclear waste, do not disturb!” in a couple dozen language like they have in user manuals for electronics and stuff, and maybe a selection of visual warning symbols to be safe, would work much better. That way, even if all current languages are no longer commonly known, there should be enough info to figure out at least one of them (a bit like how they did with the Rosetta stone).

Don’t get me wrong, I think these warnings are important, but the wording especially strikes me as something that would achieve the exact opposite of its intended purpose - could you imagine an archaeologist, random explorer, or even grave robber, would heed such a warning, or think “if someone wanted to hide something of great value or interest, this is exactly how they would try to keep people out”? It didn’t work for the Egyptians…

I love banana bread, but hate fresh bananas, so I never buy any. I guess that’s one way to solve this problem… 😂

Despicable, but sadly not surprising.

And I can already see this AI shit being added as the dystopic cherry on top of the Tory Labour policy that they’re going ahead with here in the UK to give the department of work and pension free access to all benefit claimants’ bank accounts. As if it didn’t go horrifically wrong without AI, just imagine how much worse they can make our lives, but more importantly how much money they can “save” (read: pocket) with it.

Who knows, maybe Denmark will be next to join us on the UN’s naughty list (as if it has any impact whatsoever).

sit in a local bar and talk with pro maga

Isn’t OP going through enough?

That’s the spirit! 😂

Sure, but you’re still waiting for the government to legalise it for you, which is never going to happen (not for those of us who would target billionaires, anyway).

You only need to wait for the purge, and in a queue, if you’re going one-on-one, but never forget - we are the many, they are the few, all we need to do is unite.
