yes exactly what they want, x1000000. And the people will support it just like they overwhelmingly did back then

The VAST majority of the US population at that time strongly supported the Kent State shootings, look it up. The Trumpistas definitely want that part of history to repeat itself, x1000000

That's a mean threatening look by a wannabe pitiless tough guy, by no means "expressionless"

Duh. Amerika has never been "a kind society" at least not a the level of government. Supporting the predatory oligarchs and corporations is more their jam, especially reducing their taxes through explicit cruelty against the common people
is the primary role of USian governments these days

always "those others" who will die
most don't care
for many it is a goal, eliminate as much population surplus to labor needs, reduce entitlement spending, accelerate money flows to the top .00x%

also: mainstream cis-het male culture is still infused with patriarchy, mostly subconscious
not just men, and even among feminists
just as with classism, ableism, racism, ageism, anti-LGBTQIA+ etc

You underestimate how many USians have real compassion or empathy. The VAST majority if "Christians" here, do not genuinely follow Jesus' teachings.
Most Democrats too, support corporatist / oligarch hegemony and certainly capitalism (same thing)
Their humor is cruelty.

enhance the surveillance panopticon, increased ability to manipulate / control the masses

they know this is barely an issue
Full-on fascism is a bigger more urgent problem
in fact, the Earth will likely fail to support any level of civilisation, long before the nat debt comes home to roost.

Grow up, accept that is our reality. So much grassroots cultural & spiritual work required to change that, very unlikely to happen in the US, ever.

Same scenario as believing in religion.
Unrealistic magical thinking.
Very few of those with real power have EVER cared about the common folk, in any place or time.

Naps. Often. Not necessarily short.

Actions being "illegal" is not stopping them.
The courts have no armed enforcement and Congress is complicit

They may "need" to shoot citizens protesting
comment in response to

nothing "almost like". That is the reality.
To correct this, if ever, will take many years
likely starting only when Dems are in charge.
Or (IMO more likely) will get worse and worse, full-on fascism unstoppable for many decades
if ever.
Our planet may stop supporting human civilisation first

Just watched Chernobyl. Jared Harris, loved from Mad Men, had me revisit Wayne Wang's Smoke. Bill Hurt retrospective in my future...

I use lemon-ginger tea as the base, fresh lemons as I can afford them. Simple syrup on the side so everyone can indulge as they like. 99% of my consumption is "lemon water", i.e. diluted with LOTS of ice water, often many quarts per day without going bankrupt. "True Lemon" packets infill when needed

I never start a series until it's stopped production, certain no more seasons so I can binge beginning to end. Often many years later
I **hate** waiting for more...

I dunno how? No "repost" on my actions menu

The first, and I prefer no comma.
Maybe "a fully nude and very muscular man" or "a muscular man, fully nude"
comment in response to

Aha. No, never had TV, not even cable back then. Never paid for streaming either.
VHS & Laserdisc yes, then DVDs of course, but really 99% of my media consumption has been 🏴☠️ treasure from the Open Seas.
Working my way through every season of SNL too...

naps are the solution. short naps, long naps. Abandon big blocks, fuck "schedules"
comment in response to
post
My solution - no set sleep schedule. Frequent naps, not necessarily short. Often timing is set by my need to avoid certain people or aspects of life.

even stating that Zionism was a settler-colonial project from the start, and that the current Israeli government is an apartheid state intentionally committing genocide
is not anti-Semitic

I am sure you'd like your messages to be effective among those not yet following you.
But ofc feel free to ignore my advice to save typing a few more letters.
Perhaps using insider jargon gives you some psychic satisfaction?

I certainly am not claiming that. I'm not even saying it is improper. I'm saying it is confusing to us ignorami, even those who've been advocating for social distancing, masks and vaccines since before 2020
