It’s also a lot easier to falsely report the car for a crime with the plate number. Far too many people are bored online and I would be terrified of a couple thousand seeing my truck and plate numbers.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

If he went to their homes and strangled them himself?

I was actually think of him pulling a Vlad the Impaler and inviting them over for dinner.

The UCMJ isn’t just guidelines. It’s actual rules. And murder is still illegal.

If there’s anything I learned from the Trump years, hell even the Bush II years, is that there are no rules if no one enforces them.

To be fair, the VP did organize a coup against him.

Does this mean the President can murder the DC members they don’t like and replace them?

you’re a joke

I’ve heard that if you want to sit through their Copyright violation series, they still use Happy Tree Friends videos they commissioned. At least I saw some show that about two years ago

They still wont get it. Remember when they thought Steven Colbert was on their side?

You’re being facetious, but anyone else that really wants more, search “Manufacturing Consent”.

The advertisement angle is just one way to influence how media reports. You could also just start buying stations whole sale, like Sinclair did.

Yes. That’s how you bribe news agencies with plausible deniability. It’s so well understood within the industry, that you wont find explicit instructions on any of the contracts.

That’s of course when the corporations don’t just outright own the media.

How corporations use advertisements to influence how the media reports on their activities. Prime example is how BP ran all those “We’re Sorry” ads when they poisoned the Gulf of Mexico. They weren’t apologizing to the public. They were using the ads to pass bribes to the news agencies to make sure to give them soft coverage when they should have been ranking them over the coals.

We’re not the ones who are going to mimic him. His audience will use his words to rationalize their own bigotry. We need to pay attention to him because his audience will make themselves a problem.

This shit was a problem in 2020 when Kareem Abdul Jabbar felt the need to comment on it.

This. We already have cybernetic eyes, but the company went bellyup, so once the ones already installed stop working, the users are fucked. If it were open source, they’d be some effort, either corporate or community to create an update.

I’ve only really heard Fediverse. I don’t really get into the meta discussions on here though. I’m also getting hyper sensitive to chatters that sound like bots. They mentioned “we”, but it doesn’t look like they’re a mod or admin, so I thought it was a bot using some PR speak from the dataset.

Some people just have daddy issues and need an image of a power figure to guide their life. It’s obvious on the right, but I’ve seen various shades of it in the left as well.

They speak like a bot. Zuckerberg sending miles to infiltrate?

Yeah, I just blocked the .ml worldnews community. It isn’t worth the effort trying to discuss politics with them. The .world instance has been fine for me so far.
