Two of my cats would stand outside and scream meow for at least an hour before giving up. The chaos goblin would accept this is her life and go lay on the couch before realizing she has free run of the kitchen and start fucking up all the cereal boxes full of crinkly paper. The oldest goes under doors. There is no stopping her. She will find you.

This approach worked for Ukraine and Zelensky. Let’s try it in America!

What historical events ended the way you say? None seem to come to mind. Unless the corruption is systemic, like the Romans and Spartans, removing the problem typically solves the problem for a few generations.

It’s okay. Become the monster so that they can feel the same fear for its safety as the rest of us. Force the empathy.

Let’s make this AI boom a thud!

Does Bing not work? Because DDG gets results for me

At least his pants are on

Yeah, conservatives don’t think of the future except through the lens of the present. They can’t imagine a world with EVs and batteries because they have oil brains. They are looking for solutions to problems with an oil first mindset. Sunk cost is everything.

What about Big Bamboo?

Just jam the money anywhere it will fit. That’s how it works.

Timing. Saying common sense stuff before others gives you an edge and being the first to say it with any eloquence, in a way people want to listen and are accepting of what’s being said. A lot of what Cory Doctorow says can be hard to hear or hard to deliver without sounding condescending like NDT. His talent is in the delivery.

Many see things and ask “why?” Some dream of things that never were and ask “why not?” - George Bernard Shaw or RFK Sr.

Fuck yes

You’re about the journey and not the destination. Ditto.

You’re fighting 2 generations of built in propaganda and warped history taught in schools. When I was in school I was taught Hitler came to power because he was a great speaker. Not that he championed a police state that maximized corporate success at the expense of the people. A terrible expense.

If people learned capitalism leads to fascism they would stop teaching capitalism. The world is unjust and will continue to be.

Captain Murphy, sir, permission to come aboard.
