Taxes are deflationary (they are the death of money), rather than cut spending - you could just slap a bunch of taxes on Musk and others hoarding of wealth.

That’s the problem with spending cuts, you might be cutting deflationary spending, or price stabilizing spending. Not all spending is inflationary.

A homeless person often costs the government more than an unemployed person, because usually they’re gonna still be collecting some benefits here and there, often they end up in jail, or are more likely to use public housing, or do crimes which need policing/court involvement… It all stacks up.

Preventing people from becoming homeless is deflationary.

It’s not up to politicians to tell people what to expect of them. The people are the ones who tell the politicians what is expected of them.

The Chinese United Front are testing a series of backbone organizations and assets for readiness. The final attack will coincide with major world events and obscure readiness and communications.

This will be done via disconnecting several relates levels of internet functionality so that even their repair measure will still seem unresolved. They will reconfigure and retry, unaware that their problem is solved, it’s the other levels/locations of the internet’s function that are still broken (so can’t be tested against).

This will provide extended cover that could last days or weeks. So far testing of this plan has been going well.

“oh, I only see race!”

Pod.link has a pretty big selection.

A cloud storage company shouldn’t need to “compute” anything, it should already know where the data is, or is going.

Isn’t CBS owned by Larry Ellison, run by Bari Weiss?

It should be boycotted.

His legal understanding is “and they just let you do it, because you’re famous”… And for the most part he’s been correct.

It’s a scripted question designed to help the Nazi supporter based accept/like JD more.

That they could detect. The actual number is probably a little higher.

They’re the best States. Nobody sues like these States. They’ve got the best lawyers, and it’s going to be a great case. A case like you would not believe. In fact I think the courts should just give up right now and let these States win the case. Everyone’s saying the judge should just decide the case, let them win, and walk away. That’s how good these States are.

They can bribe fascists for favourable outcomes.

TVocracy.

Makes it sound like a natural disaster, Trump’s name only appears three times in the body text of the article.

Always have been, it’s just more official for a little bit. Maybe it was Haliburton again.

Sounds like too much work.

Even just this conversation is something of a proof. You kept hitting me with that “proof” that ICE’s funding is being raised as if would “convince” me of something. You know, being a good debunker trying to realign your “opponents” viewpoint. Correct their values… Where as I wasn’t putting half as much effort into my approach.

Just writing my pro-propaganda poerty. Because poetry, art, humor, propaganda is an art form. Science, logic, rationality, skepticism, debunking - they’re a science, it’s more effort. Take more work. The mindset is more draining. It’s subject to more burnout and isolation.

It’s a case study. Meanwhile the upvotes for this post don’t go away. Nor do the people who didn’t see your correction, who just saw the headline and continued on their way (which I suspect is most reddit/lemmy style users, they’re doom scrolling).

Now apply this to a whole system of posting accross platforms like the alt-right does …and a little debunking can’t really make a dent in the overall effect.

It’s a tool the left can’t afford to avoid. It’s best seen and done as an art, as comedy, with humour, gloss, and pizazz, like Trump does it. That’s what works. Everything’s a commercial. An elevator pitch.

I’ve been a debunker. It only works in a rational society, and only untill the forces of irrationality emmerge again out of emotional need. Propaganda deals with the emotions because people aren’t rational.

It’s a case study.

Maybe they can replace it with one to that teenaged slave girl he was fucking.

Wait, am I talking about Jefferson or Trump?
