@squareydavid

@squareydavid 1) Both China and the United States depend on central banking in a global monetary system that encompasses most, if not all, “markets” in the world. 2) Both countries are de facto oligarchies that protect entrenched wealth and power.

@squareydavid

@squareydavid 3) Both countries are largely unaccountable to their residents, who are broadly regarded as “human capital stock.” 4) Both countries are dominated by an increasingly controlled media. 5) Both countries contribute to growing, global income inequality.

@squareydavid

@squareydavid 6) Both countries are two of the only five permanent members of the United Nation’s Security Council. 7) Both countries demonstrate wide-ranging historical disregard towards their own populations.

@robotronica @p_jeanne97 @JStein_WaPo If we lived in a Republic, society would be split in 3 tiers - captives, slaves and enforcers - and we would all be ruled over by a god-king and his priestly yes-men.

@robotronica

@robotronica @p_jeanne97 @JStein_WaPo Children would be harvested from the lower classes, inured to bloodshed at early age and forced into an enforcer eugenics program designed to breed a race of obedient murderers.

@robotronica

@robotronica @p_jeanne97 @JStein_WaPo Emphasis would be placed on mathematics while art and literature are censored and limited to displays of submission.

@mansoortshams

@mansoortshams @davenewworld_2 They're fake-Christians.

@mansoortshams

@mansoortshams @davenewworld_2 The Shakers were the most ardently "Christian" of all Christians I've researched. I don't believe the first "Christians" were even theistic. That's a contrivance of the Holy Roman Empire. They were probably Classical Cynics.

@mansoortshams

@mansoortshams @davenewworld_2 Classifying the original Christians as monotheistic or Jewish is probably part gross misunderstanding, part infernal deceit. Jesus may have been born in Bethlehem to a Jewish family, but he died a Classical Cynic. When he was executed, his persecutors made him a martyr.

@laurenboebert

@laurenboebert Power is out because our infrastructure is in shambles. If we adequately funded government and empowed people, we could fix the situation, but aspiring assassins and sycophants to billionaires like you do little more than collect bribes while they receive their instructions.

@laurenboebert

@laurenboebert I've met people like you. You usually end up in the backwoods, married to retired rent-a-cops, chain-smoking and talking shit to the same boring faces that nod in agreement with every word you say as you all collectively double-down on cruelty, hatred and selfish pride.

@laurenboebert

@laurenboebert It's the same mentality that leads false-Christians to preach hate and violence under the rubric of Christ. Like them, you're a petty, self-absorbed nihilist. What the fuck do you think you know?

Chicago is being buried in snow and come Spring, we will need you to dig us out . . .

Looks to be about 4 feet, cumulative, in some places.

. . . and it's fucking freezing.

@IlhanMN

@IlhanMN I'm going to write about the complexity of the situation. There's a danger in dismissing information to concentrate on a single trait of what is NOT a monolithic demographic, no matter how much some us want to portray them as a monolithic demographic.

@IlhanMN

@IlhanMN Does white supremacy color much of the rhetoric shared by this group? Absolutely. Has our suicidal economy helped radicalize these seditionists? I GUARANTEE IT.

@IlhanMN

@IlhanMN Community disintegration, the loss of our manufacturing base and increasing inequality in the greater context of institionalized racism have created a deeply resentful group of newly-minted fascist radicals who tried to kill you, and you want us to limit our search criteria?
