Here is a fun bit of obscure history. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operati...

Turns out Mark Twain was anti-imperialist. Nice. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/America...

Prediction: The US will invade Canada before the midterms. Why? Glory. The Glory of easy conquest. Trump will try to ride this glory to a midterm victory but Canada will no fall so easily, especially Quebec. The French will kill. Another “mission accomplished” moment.

Tyranny of the Judiciary = Rule of Law.

If a politician likes a judges ruling, it’s rule of law. If a politician doesn’t like the ruling, it’s Tyranny of the judiciary. Got it.

Let’s say, completely hypothetically, a group of billionaires wanted to buy up the US stock market for cheap. A neat way to do that is tariffs. Check it. Tariffs increase prices, the prices rise causes a completely predictable market crash, said billionaires buy everything, remove tariffs. Done.

Odd that we all know AI is coming for our middle class jobs, and we’re not like… idk. Talking about it? I mean, we’re losing safe government jobs and fixing to lose the rest and people are like… let’s fight Canada I guess. Baffling.

I love how social media gives the impression of agency while simultaneously absorbing real agency, monetizing it, and folding it into the corporate oligarchy. It’s fun knowing our “resistance” is a manufactured commodity and part of the system pressure valves.

Capitalism = Economic cannibalism. Why? because when the only thing that matters is the bottom line and 90 % of jobs are automated or performed by AI, the customer base will become unemployed and by extension, impoverished to the point of economic collapse. Capitalism has no way out of this trap.

I think I hate the social media. This might be close to the end of my interest in it. The advantage vs disadvantage ratio is absurd.
