  • Part of the difference now is that before it was the National Security type people that had the information, no the politicians themselves will be able to access it, as well as numerous outside groups able to hack the system. So it is a world of difference even if the internet is compromised on a basic level. Especially now with these computer programs able to sort and make assumptions however unfounded about people.

  • Well, the Tribunate helped curtail be Patricians excesses for 400 plus years. Quite a bit longer than we have as a country.

    I think they got their first ones around 500 BC when the plebs did a general strike encamping to a hill.

    Then they had another general strike what was it 300 BC ish where they got more tribunes and got some other reforms.

  • We would not invade, they would blow shit up, blow up their infrastructure, bomb them. Even they are not stupid enough to do an invasion at this point in time.

    What they would do is try to seduce a faction of the army to initiate a coup, maybe in that case we might contribute some troops to a specific action to help. I don't think these guys are capable enough to pull that off though.

  • It is hard to appreciate anything the European Union is doing with their chat control.

    I do not know if they are also trying to put everyone into the masturbatorbase, for national security purposes many governments now need to know every page you have considered whacking off to.

    Also just so happens connecting your likeness and ID to your IP allows them to see everything you do and say online.

    For the kids. The kids that will also have everything they do and say recording.

  • Did elon's ridiculously high payment of $60 billion or whatever it was go through? And what was that just for one year?

    The intrinsic value of the entire company is not more than 10 billion. The stock market is a joke.

  • The problem is they don't care what we think. They think they can just bully us into voting for the lesser of two evils indefinitely as if the Republicans are not going to fix elections. The Democratic Leadership and power Brokers are hopeless.

    Without new leadership we are fucked and 2028 might be our last chance before the fix is in tight. And it will have to be a popular aggressive campaign to overcome the fixes they are going to put in already.

  • A lot of people are voting reform, we all know they don't know what the Republicans are necessarily.

    With the Democrats running as the status quo in this time of the plutocratic stealing of our lunches, this was inevitable with Republicans running as a reform.

  • These Democrats need focus groups and studies to tell them what they should know already. Instead of making public opinion with a strong campaign they just play to the campaigns started by others.

    We need new leadership. No shit, popular politicking is more popular in popular elections.

  • It was just decorum putting assets in trusts for prez, modern era laws did restrict other officials to some degree.

    In 2016 the Republicans just refused to honor those laws and nobody held them to account, now they are not really bothering to pretend. Open corruption.

    The Constitution does forbid emoluments, but that is ignored by our captured (in)justice department.

  • I am intrigued as to their system of electing two of everything. I think that could help alleviate a lot of our problems. Two attorney generals, to secretaries of Agriculture or state, Etc.

    More than anything though I think we should reestablish the Tribunate, vested with the power to veto government actions and offer sanctuary and all that.

  • On Reddit threads about this I volunteered something that I had read about the cage free and other labels being meaningless and a marketing Ploy oftentimes and I got a lot of Engagement by people that knew a lot more than I did that were saying that basically all of those labels are meaningless except for I think the pasture one.

    These agricorps are heartless, maximizing revenue is their only concern. As such they have Enlisted the federal and state governments to go after the animal rights activists exposing their abuses of animals that could hurt their profits, working on getting them classified as terrorists as we speak I have read in the intercept.

    Everything is going to shit here and almost nobody seems to realize it, not to the degree they should realize it.

    We need to organize.

  • I suspect that Sean O'Brien saw that the Republicans were going to win because the Democrats ran the same failed strategy so played both sides.

    Not just him, a lot of people, including a lot of billionaires like Elon Musk.

    2021 was the deciding moment, when a 3-month revolving coup attempt to end the Republic in all but name went unpunished, when the Democratic leader would not even talk about it and let the captured justice department do nothing, and every other captured Federal agency continue to remain so. They saw what I saw, that without a vigorous reform agenda and some fight, that the Democrats were doomed to fail if not 2024 and 2028 and the Republicans would be able to fix elections and remain in power indefinitely.

    So yes, Sean O'Brien should not have supported the fascists, but the fault for that lies with our weak sold out Democratic Leadership.

    There is no way out of this without new opposition leadership yet we continue with the same corporatist hacks in charge of the party, still playing good cop to Republican bad cop like it is 1990 as the Republicans are now playing Hitler.

  • That is interesting thanks. As an aside an herbal I was doing for a while, Devil's Club, also known as Alaskan wild ginseng, opplopanax horridum, that I harvested for a bit, is a very powerful medicine in a great many ways.

    Some of the earlier Russian scientists that were looking at it back when they had Alaska, wrote that they found that it seemed to inhibit the removal of alcohol from your body.
