Golden.
The UK has already gone all-in, lots of US states are actively crushing free speech with SCOTUS’s illegitimate and corrupt blessing, and the EU is set to approve the widespread spying of it’s citizens in a few weeks. Global authoritarianism is here.
We’ve always been at war with eastasia
Funny part is that this comic is at least a decade old
This comic is from (IIRC) 2002 or 2003, it’s at least 22 years old.
The have wanted us to shut the fuck up and play along sine 9/11
They’ve always wanted everyone to shut the fuck up and play along. 9/11 was just another opportunity to build towards that goal.
It feels earlier. I could swear I saw it at the tail end of the Bush years, but it might have actually been the first Obama term. The artist dumped a bunch of comics in a 2011 post on their blog, so probably at least that old.
That’s just how long they’ve been taking more and more freedom of speech away. Too long
George Carlin routines always feel relevant and fresh. The reason is he didn’t jump into specifics of Reagan or Clinton. He talked about general behaviors of government and society.
The reason his material always seems current despite him being dead for almost 2 decades is that we as a country never got our shit together and fixed the issues.
This scene takes place in the gift wrapping section of a department store. Let that sink in for a moment.
I‘m pretty sure it’s from the early 2000s
Don’t forget to call it antisemitism to speak out against genocide
Also don’t forget to check whether your VPN is now owned by a British-Israeli company Kape Technologies, because they’ve been buying them up!
Unfortunately it is only barely better in the EU, and not just because we use the same trashy US services. On the 14th of October the EU parliament decides about chatcontrol, and it doesn’t look too good right now. They’re close to completely eradicating trust of communication.
Wanted to say the same, the uncle Sam hat might just as wel be replaced by an EU hat.
They’re close to destroying EU software trust. Everyone will just move on. Apps like Telegram who are not EU based are already spiking
Lol, as if Telegram was even remotely better or would not bow to the EU.
I think the only safe bets would either be software that’s rather safe due to it’s FOSS nature (with servers outside of the EU), or those who simply do not give a shit. There’s als Signal clearly stating that if the EU does this their app will become unavailable, as they’d rather stop releasing their software to people than collaborating in surveillance and breaking their own secure protocol in some way.
Not to mention chatcontrol literally breaks both basic EU law, human rights as well as most national constitutions. They’d still try though, obviously. It would indeed shatter the current high trust in EU software.
Trump fucks kids
Is this literally true?
I know he’s been a creep forever (and a felon, and a racist, and…), but I don’t remember literal statutory rape.
Ah yes, downvoting somebody because he uses critical thinking and questions statements on the all truthful internet.
There’s plenty of solid arguments we could make against him, especially about his predatory behavior, but I don’t think this should be one of them.
And if a fence-sitter actually follows up on it, this is the kind of thing that could be used as an excuse for them to go full-MAGA.
Recent claims that new documents prove the validity of the Johnson claims are false, because these documents are from 2016 and have nothing to do with what have become known as the “Epstein docs.”
Viral claims that Trump has a history of sexually assaulting children first emerged with the Johnson lawsuits in 2016. Pictures of court documents related to the case have lent perceived credibility to additional unsourced claims of child abuse that followed, and memes frequently combine the two claims.
Such claims are not new, come with several red flags and originated with an aggressive push by a serial fabulist.
Unfortunately for the US government, the internet never forgets.
But it’s just a series of tubes
