These "conspiracies" that are turning out to be true were not the ones conspiracy theorists really cared for. Those fuckers were following a secret agent larping grifter who posted on a CSAM website he ran with his dad. The theorists were pawns in the conspiracy, a conspiracy to turn pedophilia into a toothless tool, oppress minorities, and support those already in power.

The rich and political elites are depraved freaks who treat people as disposable and do fucked up things because they can get away with it. This is capitalism working as intended. This sort of evil is what classism and legalized corruption always lead to. Unless the conspiracy actually challenges this fundamental power structure, it only helps them.

If you mean protecting people who do not protect themselves, yes that is necessary. At the same time, most violent crime isn't simply inherently violent people, but directly related to businesses outside of the legal system. Organized crime is often the leading cause of violent crime, and when you consider that organized crime thrives in communities impoverished by legal companies and systemic disparities, business really is the root of most problems.

When it comes to interpersonal disputes, community members stepping up could be as effective as cops. For standing up to business ills, the situation is more complicated.

The only bad that could come from it would be violent thugs beating the population into submission so business interests can exploit the people unabated. Oh wait...

A lot of these seem like very different lies, and some of them aren't lies at all. Americans' perception of other countries is slanted towards US imperial interests, but that doesn't mean shit can't legitimately suck in those countries. Of course, even when things are bad, intervention that isn't popular and requested won't make things better.

Even with Iranians in revolt, even if a large number genuinely want US involvement, I doubt a contribution by this administration would make the country better in the long run. I doubt Israel getting to eliminate their biggest regional enemy for a bargain bin price will do anything good for Palestinians. I doubt the US once again demonstrating the geopolitical necessity of having nukes will make the world a safer place.

Putting tankie BS about North Korea being based or Ukraine being a puppet aside, the US only ever does anything good out of self interest, and right now the government isn't even acting on its own, but that of Trump. He'll attack if he thinks Iran is weak enough; not for any strategic interest, but so he can brag. Taking out Maduro did nothing for the US. Taking Greenland would do nothing for the US. They were just easy targets for him to bully, and a weakened Iran might be another.

Can confirm, I am also an ephemeral being

This is why the post focuses on her connections to Epstein and white supremacists. They might not care about transphobia, but being an ally of Epstein is broadly seen as bad unless you're a cultist or a pedophile.

Nah, they're mostly a continuation of feudal knights who protected the property of their lords. Police simply crowdfund that protection of property to all land owners and the government. They're necessary to a capitalist state, not to reigning in abuse. The people who do the most harm are often protected by the police rather than punished. The few good things police occasionally do are usually not their main job and would be better handled by nonviolent workers.

tbf, I noticed a fair amount of 4 post a year Redditors back in the day. I was often like that back then. 10% of the users provide 90% of the content or something like that. Most social media users are probably lurkers rather than serial posters like me, and that's ok.

not the queer chuds! 😭

underappreciated post
