Cool I guess we’re doing piracy now 🤦‍♂️

Thank you, senpai of the pool, your wisdom is matchless

I genuinely do not believe the situation to be recoverable - rewriting the constitution in this day and age, with the insanely partisan politics and fascistic idiocy on full display, juxtaposed with a corporatist, neoliberal “opposition party” that conducts zero meaningful opposition is frankly a non-starter.

And even if it was possible: I don’t want a constitution sponsored by Comcast and Exxon Mobil and Amazon and Meta and X and Palantir and so on. Which, I’m sure, is probably in the plan somewhere.

Well… yes and no. Judges can and do blatantly ignore law and impartiality. To wit: Judge Cannon, who successfully completely stymied any meaningful prosecution of orangeboi, in a series of legal decisions that were overtly partisan and biased.

Using traditional logic and precedent: no.

In the context of the brave new world we find ourselves in, in which the Tribunal of Six have given the president effective carte blanche to do pretty much anything so long as it’s “an official act” (where an “official act” is defined, as far as I can tell, by the president saying “this is an official act”): lots of things, including

• siccing one of the various spec ops teams from the DoDW or DoJ on them
• declaring open season on said person, including a bounty and guaranteed presidential pardon
• inviting them to a meeting and then shooting them in the face
• etc

Seriously, it’s anyone’s guess at this point. The bones of the system are crumbling, and many have already been shattered, likely irreversibly. The only thing holding this shitshow up at this point are load-bearing posters.

Well now this begs the question: who’s been nitrogen breaking the corn? 🤔

The way I see it is that enshitification is inherent to late stage capitalism, which has unfortunately become endemic in our culture.

I suppose that’s a 6/half-dozen distinction, though

Tbh the fundamentally fragmented, federated model the fediverse uses as a core design element does seem like it’d be far harder to centralize and comprehensively corrupt.

Por que no los dos?

Look into Peter Thiel. He’s one of the most influential and strategic players operating in the shadows of the regime, and he’s been at it for well over a decade - probably closer to two. And he is one heinously evil motherfucker - personally, I consider him to be an enemy of humanity in general.

Yikes buddy you gotta stop buying booze that comes in plastic bottles 😬

lol jesus fucking christ this is insane

Tbh I’m a bit surprised how quickly Airb’n’b enshitified. It’s not even a competitor anymore imo.

This post is a-maize-ing

I guess we are.
