What kills me about the floods in Texas, is not just the criminal disregard for public safety measures but that instead $160 billion are given to ICE making it the largest I don’t wanna say law-enforcement agency, because it isn’t, it is killing people as well.

The ultra rich people in the White House wave war on us. They are killing us and making money from the process.

These people are a crime against humanity

Just another day..

The top one percent have ruptured the United States to make their version the best it can possibly be.. great even.

They’re doing it while deliberately destroying all of our lives. That’s the point of the tax breaks. Tax breaks justify destroying our lives.

As Park Rose goes on to say, it isn’t just the farmers that need to stocking up on food..

So what this is saying is the what probably $1 trillion of money incinerated into AI into copilots has managed to reinvent spaghetti code

I at the end of June I had mentioned that July was going to be a bellwether month, because this is the time cargo deliveries would be arriving on the West Coast in the wake of many of the tariffs announced in May and April, compounded with the consequences to USAID.

Right now is fruit harvesting season.. along with a lot of other crops, but the shit is hitting the fan with respect to harvest.

Something like $600 billion is being misallocated to AI data centers on the premise on the false constructed premise that scale would yield this fantasy business return.

But all this money is being incinerated to no real return. We need to reason about the consequences of this apocalyptic waste of money, human life, and resources.

The platform billionaires from Silicon Valley, the crazy nut jobs, who imagine that they can have a nerd rapture and become digital gods believe that they can rewrite the laws of nature.

This is how psychotic they are. They run the White House.

Collective action will happen when people cannot ignore that their own lies will be forfeit if they don’t organize and participate a general strike.

The system can’t function if we don’t participate in it. That does require for the people to get their shit together and organize the logistics for it

Can we all agree now that the notion of inevitable progress is dead?

Human beings are in a fight for survival with rich billionaires who consider us optional in their dark fantasy future.

It certainly does not take very long before fascism starts about removing citizen rights to natural born citizens.

Nobody is safe under this bullshit. The billionaires that paid for this the billionaires making tons of money off of kidnapping men, women and children are ripping mothers away from babies or vice versa and packing people off to concentration camps, cannot go unpunished in all this neither can the politicians.

The world cannot return to 2024. They crossed too many lines.

The absolute sickest thing about mass deportation is it’s all for profit.

And it’s all for profit for people in the White House, like of course Stephen Miller. All these assholes are making money, kidnapping, and deporting people to concentration camps.

When they run out of migrants, they’ll start in on citizens and Ernest and we all find ourselves in fucking labor camps working off some sort of debt that will keep us under their thumb for the rest of our lives

These detention centers are fully private as we know a business is always going to seek to expand. They’ll run out of immigrants one way or another. There are plenty more people to work on.

Who knows how much longer being born in the US will supposedly make a difference? Not that it seems to matter too much already because we have a supreme court in the pay of billionaires and racist, fascist billionaires at that

It should be emphasized that NRx, the guys from Silicon Valley that bankroll people like Kirk etc will be sanitizing the deep state central database of everyone in the US Palantír is now building, under the guise of protection from terrorism, these are the people who reject the enlightenment, and instead embrace everything that epitomizes the exact opposite of what has been considered pillar Western values.

Due process, at least the pretensive equality before the law and liberty.

@clarity @tad

Every corporation needs to be shuttered dismantled, and its assets redistributed.

This is the source of their undue influence.. currently that undue influence includes their interest depriving us of everything we have worked for or could hope to have.

We can make significant progress to that end by pushing corporations out of our communities. Close down and push out Walmart for instance, then make them finance investment in local businesses.

Watch as the US Impotus shouts about a cease-fire and peace deal while too combatant ignore him completely

@gerrymcgovern

I have to wonder how far this will all go before extreme weather pulls the rug out from all of it.

I could well imagine a storm doing in these data centers. Or we have a major economic emergency that makes their function impossible.

In regards to their safety houses in bunkers, there was an article written by a security expert that was interviewed by wealthy on the top of of how they secure the loyalty of the staff they expect to defend them. The experts advice was to treat them well something that of them were comfortable with.

Remember the guy making the safety houses are largely psychopaths. But it’s interesting because they don’t understand what loyalty is.
