Irritatingly unlikely, sadly.

Both parties have spent considerable time batting around the 2nd Amendment as a toy in their game. A polarizing empty-promise point with emotional strings attached, so now all the blowhard bullies sexually fetishize weaponry, and many of the types who would disagree with authoritarians are paralyzingly afraid and ignorant of anything "military looking" that makes loud noises.

"Because only cops and troops should have guns!" said the enlightened neoliberals, as they gladly handed over their responsibilities of self-protection and firearms education to the might-makes-right crowd.

"Muh freedom! An' 1776 or somethin'! An' own the libs, don't tread on me!" says the gun "collecting", MAGA-hat wearing, massive-smoking-diesel-truck-in-the-suburbs driving, angry and scared working man, who carries a copy of the Declaration of Independence (he hasn't actually read, or if so, cherry-picks the parts he likes) and is completely ignorant on the Bill of Rights, who loudly decries and slanders "The Government(TM)" ...but conveniently simps for his abusive bossman and "backs the blue" when they mercilessly beat a bunch of people waving signs and assault reporters. Who waves a Bible (also unread) around yet shows contempt and hatred for his neighbor. Who thinks a bunch of armed insurrectionists storming the Capital because they didn't like poll results aren't traitors.

Lol.

Lmao.

God help us.

Many of the people who are opposed to this clown show have been successfully declawed and defanged if their legal processes have fallen apart, which we're watching happen in real time. They're also scabs who just want their creature comforts and will keep their heads down hoping "somebody else will take care of it."

you should be weary.

Oh don't worry, we're really freaking tired and weary of this nonsense.

But we should also be wary of how sneaky these bastards are.

As Caesar Donald the step to becoming the god emperor isn't that big...

Kinda just hoping we can skip all that and go straight to the "Et tu, Bruté?" bit.

The worship of limitless work and the military, a toxic obsession with hyper-individualism and isolation, with a paper-thin facade of morals and self-proclaimation of greatness, while everyone is broke, without opportunities, hooked on drugs, and stuck with crumbling infrastructure in vast stretches of remote nothing-land, while getting used and abused by multinational corporations and barons?

Sounds like they're just pushing the mentality of the southern states to a national level.

"This is an invasion that could have been an email!"

Oh trump's definitely not the "daddy" in this relationship.

Imperial power will co-opt, steal, bastardize, and butcher whatever peoples or messages it has to in order to justify its own legitimacy.

Gentle reminder that a term of military service is compulsory in Israel.

In essence, wicked old bastards are conscripting kids, filling their heads with xenophobia, and sending those kids to die.

Kids getting blown to pieces is a net-negative for mankind.

If they will not change, the most good these "leaders" can amount to in their brief time on this planet before they go straight to Hell, is to become a feast for the buzzards, preferably sooner rather than later.

(Edit: wording)

Annnd "Open"AI goes full evil, to the surprise of absolutely no one.

And the military is going for this? Yikes.

"Ah, my mistake! I suppose that was a bunch of civilians with signs and not combatants with weapons after all. Let's try again. Anyway, is there anything else I can help you with?"

That's exactly the strategy. He's basically a human (term used loosely) "Denial of Service" attack on our collective psyche.

Constant output of garbage information we're forced to evaluate, until we're overwhelmed, overloaded, and shut down from being mired in so much sheer volume of stupidity.

Dunno if she wrote "thumbs" or the collab with Alan Walker, which I always thought were kinda based, but she was just starting to get popular then maybe. Really sad if she's let the fame go to her head that badly.

A soul is a terrible thing to waste. :(

Or (hopefully?) not having private stuff the car recorded passed around the company's office for chuckles.
