NEW: #Russia has jumped into the #Texas border controversy and is now cheering on civil war in the US and promoting the right-wing border convoy. Even more interestingly, I found evidence that disinformation accounts associated with the notorious Internet Research Agency (Russia’s “troll factory”) may be being “reactivated” to promote a secessionist movement in Texas.
@MnemosyneSinger I was having a think about this earlier, while I was on the bus. All sorts of modern men and women are basing their concepts of life in the 50s era around ads and propaganda of the time, and what had come to my mind is that people 50-70 years down the road will be thinking everyone was having sex with burgers in the 90s/00s. Further down, I guess they'll think we were eating shoes, now. They'll be like "no wonder their society collapsed. Leather won't provide nutrients"
@astrid the fact that it's possible for remote input to be executed against hardware necessary for driving is absolutely bonkers to me. Like, that seems like something that shouldn't be legal to do, to me anyways
aw man i fucked up the gender reveal and flew into the pink tower instead of the blue one. now we have to get a whole other plane not to mention the fuel costs
@LLS@mastodonmigration@msbellows@TonyStark I mean, this presupposes that there might be an option which isn't essentially "drive off a cliff" - which is not the political climate in which we currently live. I genuinely believe the government must be dissolved and rebuilt; and I believe it is coming soon - I just really hope it doesn't end up being the fascists who do it
@TonyStark@mastodonmigration@LLS@msbellows yeah, the graphic says "there's these options, only one of them is drive off cliff" I'm saying "all of the options are driving off a cliff, and its a waste of time and effort to vote". We need to organise, stop the bus, and get the fuck off
@TonyStark@msbellows@LLS@mastodonmigration the importance of voting presupposes a good candidate, and an effective system of government - neither condition of which is true within contemporary America
@TonyStark@msbellows@LLS@mastodonmigration anyways, I'm entirely too tired to be having any sort of reasonable discussion. I'm a grouchy toddler when I'm tired, and I respect you all more than to subject you to that. Goodnight, and I hope it to be a pleasant one for you all
