Open AI stole all of our data to train their model. If this is true, no sympathy.

We need to get the entrenched old guard democrats out of power. They are controlled opposition just as beholden to the billionaires who pull Trump’s strings. We need new blood.

If you get all the levers of government under your control - you kind of become a king.

His Israel support is likely all bought by AIPAC money. Our system has to get campaign finance reformed so badly. Money in politics has destroyed this country and made every politician have to capitulate to their donors or face primary challengers who can out spend them. A good example is last election when these tech bros straight up crushed Sherrod Brown who was merely skeptical of crypto. It’s the biggest obstacle to change.

Billionaires engineered all of this. The whole stock price over innovation mindset was to extract American wealth and cripple American power. They want no power to exist that can reign in their own power. The battle for equity never ends. The billionaires and their ghouls never stop. Never trust the government to stay honest, we have to keep them honest.

This is going to make our electronics get so expensive. 🤦🏻

While Trump is just selling the United States piece meal to the ultra wealthy and private equity and calling it “making America great again.”

The stock market is such a house of cards. So glad my retirement is in the hands of panicky reactionary gamblers.

I think that’s the only way to fix things now. Massive general strikes are needed at a minimum. Likely far worse action needed before the ultra-wealthy can be reigned in.

Libre office is better too. MS builds so much bloat in it hampers functionality hard. I only use MS for work.

This is what I do. You have to be in one eco system at some level these days and Apple painted themselves into a corner with their privacy marketing. Rather only give info to one. Nothing a smart TV does can’t be done on my Apple TV plus Apple TV adds a lot of features if you are an Apple user on other devices.

Trump is destroying the government without any understanding of its impact. Such a dipshit piece of trash.

Fair. I was just thinking what the monetary system really needed was to be more obscure, cartoonish, energy intensive and unstable.

Trump is just itching for more BLM style protests to test his new powers out on. He appointed people just as eager. He wants a round two from 2020.

There is a reason the clearly losing war on drugs has continued for nearly a century. Instead of adjusting to more logical regulating of substances like we learned from alcohol prohibition, the war on drugs marches on.

If America is forced to accept austerity measures over our massive debt when the dollar is no longer fiat, regular people will be the ones who suffer sadly.

LGBTQ+ and immigrant fear can convince conservatives of about anything.

His policies are pandering for the populous, accommodating for the rich. Sadly his supporters enjoy being pandered to.

Our whole society is broken. We need a shift to collectivism. This rugged individualism bull shit idea our society has embraced is a recipe for weakness and collapse. It’s been happening since we moved away from the collectivist attitude popularized during world war 2. Humans are pack animals.

Trump seems to have the goal of destroying the US from all I can tell. Our economy and power are so dependent on our connections to the rest of the world and he is burning them all down. The US dollar gets replaced as the fiat currency we are wholly fucked and this dumb shit is how that happens.
