The Pepe-ification of US political discourse.

I started playing a game with myself during my freshman year of college: how many species can I identify? At first I could only easily distinguish between birds and mammals. Then I was like oh well maybe I should bay closer attention to plants, then I realized how do I tell the difference between trees? Ok leaves are easy enough things to spot but why are some plants woody and some are… Wait how do I describe that? (Word I was looking for was herbaceous).

I took a lot of shrooms during that time, realized Im not built for an office environment and decided to study horticulture and botany even though it wasn’t offered at my university. I decided that I’d become a horticulturist and everyone around me probably thought I was smoking too much weed.

They were probably right, but I stuck to the plan regardless.

Yeah. Something. Like 75-80% of all content on the internet is AI generated now. Might be much worse since that figure was hit a while ago.

The internet isn’tade for humans anymore, which is ultimately something I don’t understand. Ai chat bots have taken over and we’re calling it “intelligence”.

For what? So a few rich fucks can eek out every last penny from us. If you’re human, I hope you’re well. Maybe getting off the internet is what we really need

Reddit is completely compromised. Fuckin sad to see. I got Perma banned about a week ago so I suppose there’s nothing I’ll be missing out on. I hate to sound hyperbolic but the internet we once knew is gone. For a brief moment I. Human history we had almost unrestricted access to the wealth of human knowledge, paired with the ability to form niche forums accessable to everyone within our reach and we squandered it.

End of an era. Now the internet is a circlejerk fest of bots, slop, and propaganda. I migrated to Lemmy, seems like it’s starting to hit another wave of growth. I don’t see social media having the utility it once did, especially the mainstream sites.

They’re saying it will be phased out entirely…

It works, for now

Nah you’re buggin for this dawg.

Sure there’s an element of the remnants of the uncensored net that is met with a sense of nostalgia but you picked one of the worst examples of that, Jesus Christ.

Provokation and emotional response.

In my mind that would be the main reason why. An sane population wouldn’t stand for their children to get killed and you do nothing. It forces your opponent into action and you can exploit that action.

With some infrastructure and certain targets a response can be delayed. Mass civilian/children casualties mean an immediate retaliation is in order or your population revolts to make one happen.

You see it in Palestine; people with nothing to lose become beligerant. You kill their kids they attack viciously. Much easier to attempt to justify fighting a “vicious rabbid opponent” than a defense less peaceful one. However, if they go the opposite end and attempt peace and calm, they are easy to mow down

Not gonna lie, it was a one off joke in Rick and Morty I saw at the end of highschool that got me to realize that, “oh this is a thing thing. Like not that one should be taking cartoons as political fact but that for the past few decades shining light on the legitimacy of Israel almost automatically turns you into a raving drunk lunatic”.

It’s not about Jews, or a homeland. It’s a concerted effort by a group of people for over a century to underhandedly amass power and exert influence while doing great harm and lying. These aren’t middle eastern people searching for their ancestral lands. They are power hungry Europeans who changed their names to larp as semetic people, to displace and replace the people who’ve lived there for centuries.

How a group of pilfering bandits made themselves synonymous with a religion AND ethnicity is fucking fascinating. Saying any critique of ZIONISTS and their actions brings down the wrath of YOUR OWN GOVERNMENT. I can’t even fathom the dirt they have on people or why we even fucking care anymore.

It’s so weird how bitter some plants tasted as a kid and how I can now pick up subtle sweetness in them. So many things I hated as a kid and couldn’t even force myself to keep down are quite tasty to me these days

At this point, considering the length of time involved in Zionist organizing to grow their sphere of influence, millions have died by proxy.

Funny how the thumbnail image looks just like how ICE agents in America are dressed. Guess they were inspired by their OGs.

Not a bad play.

This shit has long gotten out of control. We need a running list. The Zionist - pedophile protector list is less of a Venn Diagram and more concentric circles.

???

I mean a large portion are in it for the money. The power trip is a bonus for many. Let’s be objective here

That’s what I’m saying. We tried that whole jail shit and things got fucky. We had/have enough evidence to get his contacts. Jeffrey Epstein Did Not Kill Himself.

I’m fine with an easy out.

I don’t need them to think about their actions. I don’t need them to stew and marinate in their guilt. I certainly don’t need them to have avenues to still exert influence.

They need to die, anything else is a distraction.

1. Their buddies own the prisons
2. Every day spent in prison cost money tax payer dollars fund
3. Them breathing is a waste of oxygen

I saw my naivete during the George Floyd protests when state police came to my city with blacked out badges and punisher masks.

They are HEAVILY armed.

It’s a nice sentiment for garden tools but you need actual firearms. Regrettably, I’ve yet to go to a major protest since trump has been in office. Somewhat a relief since we know now they are using footage to put protesters in terroist databases. If you aren’t going to protests even partially in black bloc you are ill prepared. If you aren’t arming yourself you are ill equipped.

I hope this ends, yet I have zero faith in peaceful protests to stop a fascist regime. I’m not saying don’t protest, I am explicitly saying that force must be met in kind. When winter ends I anticipate things escalating and heating up a lot more.

Anything less than death is far too little for these sick fucks.

Swift and quickly, this needs to end and be left in the past.

Imagine

Can’t make this shit up dude.

How many repeat offences do you need before you get to the point where you STOP the repeating offender?

Is it more than 30? I know a dude who’s got 37 indictments related to ONE event. And surprise surprise he the people supposed to judge and try him in a court of law are paid off…
