Whoa! Thanks for the recommendation, looks sick.

Where is my cyberpunk french revolutionpunk rpg setting crossover??

All they care about is power, so as long as he is the most powerful man on Earth, nothing. Their plan is probably to use him to get their agenda through until 2028 then maybe change the ticket around or hope he dies in office. I can’t imagine them turning on him before that.

Wring it out real good like.

“Comfortable, wealthy neoliberal who does interviews with and works with fascists and is not personally targeted by them bravely says some macho stuff while his state’s residents get disappeared and shot at.” Is the actual headline here, but Gavin is hoping that a little grandstanding will let him make a presidential run later without actually doing anything for his constituents. He should be doing so, so much more than he is and yet so many people seem desperate for a win that they are willing to call this a victory rather than like, a potential signal that he might, potentially, care about his citizens a little, hypothetically.

They do, but it has to be pretty serious because you are signing up to be tortured for an unspecified length of time as well.

Private healthcare and the punitive, draconian nature of our “legal system” work in tandem. If either were fixed then the other would lose their leverage.

You have a special interest in something that you can’t help being interested in. Find a server about that topic and hang out watching the conversation until you feel comfortable interjecting. Can chill in there for weeks just lurking, remember that the stakes are incredibly low in online spaces.

Ea-nasir strikes again!

Excellent joke my fellow Germans.

Rich people just go to rehab in the form of a long vacation then get addicted again the moment they come back in contact with society.

Then you would only hire people who are lying to you. Congrats on being so shrewd.

The employees are there because they want the compensation. If it wasn’t about the compensation, and they really just enjoyed performing some given task as a hobby or interest, then they don’t need your business to do it. They can do it at home.

Yeah, if reddit wants to start sending all the people who made its content their fair share then by all means. Doubt they’re gonna make any attempt to do that, though.

I know your question is rhetorical, but hypothetically China could do that with the aim of whipping up their population into hating the American government more, making them more willing to swallow local authoritarianism and foreign imperialism framed as national defense. That’s basically what the US is doing in the current arrangement, only reversed.

It’s already on for real. Hypernormalization is a bitch. That might shock us all for an afternoon but we’d be back to the same discourse a week later.

It’d be a bit like if China and it’s entire sphere once a year went crazy commemorating the Kent State or Haymarket Massacre. They wouldn’t be wrong to say these are bad things, but it’d clearly be in service of some ulterior motive.

You basically just need to be a US citizen who speaks English to be an ICE agent, and the pay starts higher than I’ve ever made, before the 5-figure bonuses for deployment.
