americans are fucking stupid. look at the countless articles of "american man's life ruined by trump, still supports trump." it's absolutely mind-boggling

i am also skeptical that a critical mass of people will do anything beyond peaceful protesting, and if they do, it's probably too late. they're still posting their shit on social media, which, surprise-- everything you post is now indexed and cross referenced by trump's NSA/FBI/DHS/DOJ/CIA etc.

this is why they want AI, and if/when the AI "bubble" pops, it'll be your tax dollars bailing them out, just like the banks in 2008. is your face at a protest showing up online? guess what, they've got your name and address.

tl;dr: yes. americans are fucking stupid. but worse than that, they lack the willingness to go the molotov route.

Dude yeah. Everything I have ever said since I was 12 (i am 40 now) is likely saved somewhere and can be used for AI to compile a profile on me. Shit is crazy bro.
