Trump is a shit stain. But I don’t get why people don’t see that he’s not the only shit stain. These companies aren’t afraid of him. They are supporting the shift to fascism that they chose. So even the most milk toast liberal criticism won’t have a place in that world. This isn’t done out of fear.

Please remember this. Because fascism won’t die with Trump. The capitalist class has chosen it. And they will support it as long as it serves their interests.

So I was entertained for awhile by some idiot bigot that was only ever known for doing dangerous stunts…

Yeah. I’m ok with that. Rest in piss then.

Really? I thought it was weak for Trump. He usually is a lot better at forming a bit of a narrative around his lie. He seems a little scared and off to be honest.

I don’t think it’s a turn. I think it’s like you said. They have hard evidence and even Murdock knows it’s better to keep that shit in house. Whoever the source is would have gone elsewhere. That’s not something that gets pushed under the rug.

The source for this clearly can’t be paid off to stay quiet. Going to the WSJ first is absolutely on purpose.

If I had to make a wild guess. Maxwell. Only person that would have a bombshell like this with hard evidence. I think it’s a warning shot too. I really doubt there isn’t more.

Anyone that already hates Trump isn’t distracted by this. If anything it’s only making people that voted for him become more suspicious of him and take criticism of him more seriously.

This isn’t a distraction. This is Trump absolutely failing to control the narrative with his base for the first real time.

Because even MAGA voters are ok with burning down the government if it’s true that our two party system and the billionaires they work for are literally protecting pedophiles. Which I don’t think many people doubt at this point.

MAGA just had the delusions that somehow the sex pest billionaire was on their side.

More likely let it stay in the media and give them boring shit until something else catches peoples attention.

Lua starts at 1 too. It’s infuriating. I believe for the same historical reason Matlab does.

Both meant for non CS people.

While I agree and understand what you’re saying. I think you might need to understand that that does not matter. The illusion of law and order is being destroyed.

They control the monopoly on violence. The pen is not mightier than the sword. The pen is only mightier than the sword when the pen results in a bigger sword being built.

There is no bigger sword. The fascist control our police, military, and federal agents. And unless the people of this country suddenly gain class consciousness we won’t have anything to fight back with.

You will not win against fascist by trying to appeal to “rights” and trying to get others to “bring back what we had”.

What we had lead us to this point in the first place. We had an illusion of a democracy and justice that was only ever going to last until it’s contradictions could no longer be ignored.

You will not defeat fascist by pointing to their hypocrisy. They thrive because they are here to defend the very systems of oppression that were already filled with hypocrisy and contradictions in the first place.

Bug Report: Unchecking all but one of the items in the donut chart displays that stats as 0%.

Is this meant to break down each category later? Because it seems pointless either way.

“Convicted Criminal” is pretty vague too. What category would someone with a charge of Jwalking or a traffic fit in here?

You can be proud of the small minority of us IN the country that resist. But this country is not something to be proud of. That’s like saying your proud of Germany as a country in the 1930s because Jewish and communist militia’s fought the rise of Hitlers brown shirts.

You can be proud of those people. But it’s weird to direct it at “the country” because it’s essentially resisting everything that that country represents.

Probably one of the “dangerous illegal poor little ICE officers!”

Saying “I don’t believe X conspiracy theory” is understandable. But saying you don’t believe in any “conspiracy theory”. Like, you think that the government just always tells the truth and doesn’t cover up anything?

Yeah I agree. Pretty sure the whole trust part goes out the window when you aren’t releasing the actual raw footage to the press.

Unironically, if all they did was just cut out parts they didn’t want, using open source ffmpeg to rencode and strip metadata would have been the best way to do it.

Using Adobe is just fucking sloppy. Not to mention, I’m pretty sure Adobe own any content that got uploaded to their servers during the edit. They likely have at least frames of it sitting on their servers if not the whole video.

Everywhere. Even if they have warrants. Seriously. These are Nazis and should be treated as such. Do not let them kidnap people. Shame them until there are enough numbers on your side to fight back.

If you don’t know the victims name. Learn it and keep repeating it. Yell “they are trying to kidnap <name>!”. It humanizes them further against a masked person that won’t identify themselves. It can help attract people around to help.

And it has to be you. Everyone else is in “freeze” mode as they don’t know what’s going on. You do. You know. You gotta be the one to start resistance. But you won’t be alone long.

Fuck these Nazis.

Literally just had the same thing happen to me. This time at Microsoft. Worked for a small startup. It got bought out in 2023 after investments in actual hardware that wasn’t named Nvidia died.

Layoffs on most of our engineers. Somehow I survived and basically did no work for 2 years. Was finally laid off.

I hated it. But I basically stole a salary from Microsoft for two years. Fuck these big tech companies.

I think maybe you should use less pronouns when replying and be more specific about what you’re disagreeing with.

When people reply to me like this I reread my comment. Your reply could be interpreted in multiple ways. So I won’t just jump to the wrong conclusion.

Fucking Christ. Glad I left windows behind.
