Watching how quickly all these companies crumble, it really is astonishing the Obama and Clinton didn’t take on Fox News for all it’s bullshit.

McCarthy was in fact backed in 1946 in the Republican primary against progressive Robert M. La Follette Jr. by the Wisconsin Communist Party because they felt that La Follette would be more effective in opposing communism.

The problem is the average American ain’t gonna do that kinda work.

I mean, it hasn’t thus far.

It’s almost impressive how quickly the whole of the business world capitulated to Donald Trump.

I saw someone say it seems that the tariffs were calculated by dividing our trade deficit by their exports to us and cutting that number in half. Another person analyzed his charts and concluded they look a lot like they were generated by AI.

So, there is, literally no basis in logic. Either one of Trump’s minions calculated what it would take to recoup the difference in the trade deficit and just wrote it down and he announced that as the new basis for international trade, which has never, ever been done, for the reason that it is fucking idiotic, or he asked Gemini how to execute his already objectively stupid policy and wrote an Executive Order making it the law.

And the fact that we are forced to accept people on the Internet’s guesses about how he calculated these numbers may actually be worse than the fact that just about every product on the market more complex than a stapler just jumped about 30% in price.

I’d say it’s also a problem that the sort of people who use the Internet to find people to beat up are idiots, so even if they aren’t going out of their way to victimize minorities, odds are they’ll just beat up some random person.

In light of the Trump Administration, a lot of the terrible shit other Presidents have done is a lot less noteworthy.

Remember Hillary’s emails?

I wonder if the people who go on about it actually understood the implications of the email server, or just reacted when Fox told them to.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and he’ll move against the nuclear arsenal and the Army will finally give him the boot.

Okay.

It was fun while it lasted.

For someone.

I presume.

Firefox changed terms. Proton is just run by a twat.

Between this, Proton and Firefox’s change of terms, most of the advice I’ve seen on tech that protects your privacy seems like it’s going the way of the dino.

One of the things that has continuously confounded me about Musk’s veneration by the modern American fascist is that one of the main accomplishments they hail him as a genius for are “his” advancements in electric cars.

Which are necessitated by Global Warming.

Which they do not believe in.

I said any Muslim who voted for Trump will get what they deserve.

Which, when you think about it, is even more bullshit. Because that means Reddit believe Trump’s election will result in violence against Muslims. But they still allow pro-Trumpism.

Because the Britons who vote for him hate minorities.

As much as this makes me hate Donald Trump more than I already did, which was already more than I hate almost anyone, the really horrific thing is that a decent fraction of Americans will look at this and think Trump made the right decision, or at least a brave, or reasonable, decision.
