Nazis traditionally labeled people on the opposite end of their political spectrum the enemy and it’s not long before they are disappeared on a consistent basis.
I wonder if the people who are in the place to act are going to be able to stop the next Kristallnacht before it happens.
They already got the concentration camps in place.
Wow the Timex Sinclair. Chicklet keyboard and all. That thing was a lot harder to work with than the C64 I’m sure.
Looks like we have similar takes on what’s going on because I totally agree with what you just said.
Thanks for that. I’m not sure where I got the idea. It was from the early 70s.
Believe it or not, there are actually people who only think in pictures and cannot actually form words in their minds.
When I learned about that it blew my mind.
That conclusion requires a combination of empathy and compassion, characteristics people who become CEOs who rarely have.
The ones that do often get outmaneuvered by their peers and get kicked out.
If you want, it’s no skin off my back. This whisper voice to text that I have on my Android is working pretty well, but there will be similar errors in the future.
So far it’s the best one I’ve found. I don’t have to specify punctuation or anything. Basically what you’re reading is exactly what it came out with. It beats the keyboard, which for some reason keeps putting C’s and V’s where I put spaces, and I have to go back and modify everything.
Voice to text strikes again!
Yes. I remember the data center the NSA built. I took notice.
mandatory testosterone therapy, here we come!

If this echo dies out in a hundred years, what good is that going to do my son and myself?
No, we aren’t.
Upvoted for the sheer mic drop moment. Well done.
I’ll buy that for a dollar!
perhaps you are being sardonic and I’m not catching it but i hope you don’t think this bit of absurdity was the only reason i expressed my dark,dystopian opinion of the current “reality”.
it’s just another piece of reflective, chromed shit thrown on top of the mointainous pile of crap I’ve seen over the years. that is the thing that is behind my wailing and gnashing of teeth.
maybe we should all find a bunch of like minded people, buy some land leave this all behind.
holup, wasn’t that the premise of The Villiage? damn - no escape. the desire is real, and likely part of why i am fascinated with bushcraft and survival.
I’m sorry to say I had to look up the reference that you have to Blaster Master. I came up with this completely out of my own imagination.
you already have that: your TV, your tablet, your securiy camera, your baby monitor, your doorbell, your neighbor’s doorell, your goddamn router from the ISP. your phone.
the game ended when Elon Musk got Trump the votes he needed. there is no freedom any more. all we can do is resist until they disappear us.
George Orwell warned us back in 1948.
u.s. govt: we can’t? hold my beer.
