Of course Republican claims that these people are murderers and rapists are bullshit. They have slid from “some of these people have a criminal record,” which is designed to get people to associate immigrants with criminality, to “they’re the worst of the worst,” which pushes it further without making any specific claim. And then you get idiots like Noem claiming they’re all hardened criminals when clearly they’re just scooping up whoever they can grab. Don’t believe a word of it.
They know. Some Republicans have been talking about making Canada a state with no vote and no representation.
I think he imagines that starting needless conflicts makes him look tough, not like the clueless moron he is.
I’m drinking them now. I love the burn.
Trump is replacing the top people with fascist loyalists. It’s likely the military would cooperate.
By “tyranny” they mean (1) being expected to pay taxes to enable society’s basic functioning, and (2) being expected to treat others with respect.
It’s OK. We know. But the US needs to be rid of this Nazi regime.
Actors would be at the labouring end of things though, rather than the exploiting end. And if you’re an actor who lands big roles you’re going to get paid well for your work. Maybe you’d be paid too well and pay should be more evenly distributed between you and less well known actors, but that’s really a different question from the one about exploitation.
Why do you think bird flu will only kill people who don’t believe in vaccines? Even if there is a vaccine for it (which I don’t think there is right now), a virus circulating freely due to large numbers of unvaccinated people, antimaskers, etc. will kill all kinds of people, not just the antivax/antimask people. This is what we saw with COVID, and bird flu will be a lot worse.
Trump 2025: Make America Unemployed Again!
The ethical route, ie “white hat”, is to contact the owners about the exploit with a fixed period disclosure. Ie, “fix this in 30-90 days, or we will publish our method”.
I’m not sure that is the ethical route when you’re talking about disrupting the operations of a Nazi-led government.
Trans people need lots of real allies who are prepared to put themselves in danger to defend them.
Anyone who leaves a message in full view to announce they’ve accessed the system isn’t the real danger. If whoever this is could get in, so can the real experts from China, Russia, North Korea, etc. There’s no way Musk’s DOGE people, in their destructive haste, have taken any care over security. It’s even likely his team of punchable kids put in their own backdoors, thinking they were being clever. If and when foreign adversaries find their way in through those, they’re not putting up an announcement.
Even if the judges decide to bar Musk and his cronies from government systems, I don’t expect they would simply comply. They know that if they just keep going, the judges have to be the ones scrambling to catch up. It’s a deliberate tactic of moving so fast that the mechanisms of checks and balances become de facto irrelevant. It reminds me of what the Israeli military always did, creating “facts on the ground” while the international community discussed how things should be arranged. By the time the discussions concluded, the conclusion would be irrelevant to the reality. By the time the law catches up, Musk will have done what he set out to do. And he knows as well as anyone how difficult it is to enforce any law against the richest man in the world.
He wants to seize Greenland, Panama and Canada because they are either strategically important or have valuable resources, or both (and, in the case of Canada, because he wants revenge on Trudeau for being “woke” and standing up to his ape-dominance handshakes). This name change though is just because he hates Mexicans.
I like the regular web UI better than the alternatives. It’s really pretty good.
Also because people don’t like to support the Nazi billionaire who is actively destroying their country. But the terrible quality control of their overpriced and poorly designed cars doesn’t help.
I can’t think of a fully independent one.
Not everyone walked away. Some may have suffered life-altering injuries.
