Thats irrelevant as you are engaged in a strawman argument. If you message me again, I will block you. If you want to have intelligent discussions with people, learn to do it right.

If you wanna argue with strangers on the internet, im not interested.

You should educate yourself more about the subject. Because you obviously have no fucking clue what the trucker convoy protest was.

Your little walking parades are not protests. The trucker convoy was a real protest.

I’ve been following American politics very closely. I am very educated on it. You have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.

You are making a strawman argument. I wont waste my time with people that cant argue in good faith.

Sometimes science has prevailing theories. They call them theories, because they aren’t known woth certainty. But they still teach them in school, as its our best guess.

You dont have a good understanding of what science is. No scientist claims to know what charge is, what causes it, nor what dark matter is or dark energy.

Scientists say what they can say with reasonable certainty. If they state something, you can research why they state it, and find sound reasoning and experiment that supports it.

If you dont, you can disprove it, and then now you’re a scientist.

Just because you dont know a thing, doesn’t mean others cant know.

All the ones that know what’s happening are aware they are losing their freedom.

Im not bothered by maga or ignorant people not doing anything.

Its all the people that know what is happening. That think posting “release the Epstein files” will help. It would if they did it on congress’ front lawn, but not in their echo chambers.

Your first sentence leads me to believe you’re full of shit, so im not reading the rest of it.

Show me. Why isn’t lemmy full of protests?

They can stop many news outlets, but not all of them. Not all social media platforms.

The protests are small and insignificant.

They should be massive. Like the trucker convoy in Canada was.

There are still free social media platforms, and they aren’t showing protests.

Wed see them on lemme, if it was 24/7 protests, so, you are not correct.

It is, but they dont consider it a threat of being bombed.

However, I personally am.not sure it is safe from terrorist attacks. F1 might be logistically difficult for that though. Its not in a building, things are spread apart, and so on. But it would still have major news coverage.

It is corrupt, the government is corrupt, and the people aren’t willing to do anything about it. Not mass protests, not dropping the social media they control, or boycotting the companies that give them power.

So, it won’t change.

The administration is on a war rampage also, which means the only way the people will be free, since they do nothing, is if war comes to America, and the regime is taken out by force.

This of course would be ww3, and the casualties of such a war would be far greater than ww2. Many more civilian casualties.

And of course poverty in america. Their government will gove themselves money for luxuries first, their armies second, and their people can have whatever crumbs are left over.

Technically we are. We won’t be out in our lifetimes, to my knowledge, but we aren’t making more helium. Once its gone, its gone. So, it is running out, but on what time scale?

When will the human race start slowing down? Its eventually just going to get crazy expensive and only used when vital. And we’re filling party balloons with it.

I am shocked that america isn’t 24/7 protests.

Who is the more foolish the fool or the fool who follows it.

Or in this case, is Trump more foolish for being a fool, or are the people more foolish for knowing this, and allowing it to continue?

The people have taken little action so far. They are just spectators, complaining on social media.

Its social media that made them complacent and fed them a bunch of bullshit. The students and young people are usually the ones that stand up and fight. But they’re all on social media doing social media things, and complaining that they cant biy homes, or that their rights are being g taken away and they’re ruled by a tyrant, but they aren’t doing anything. They’re just on social media.

Yes, because he was already doing it before he bought it. Russian money and maga money was already paying influencers, getting data from Facebook and stuff, placing ads. You can make a video, and call it an ad, and pay meta to place that ad, to any demographic yoi want. So, they initially just used money to spread hate on these platforms, and then they outright bought them all.

Yes, many came out of the woodworks. Many narcissists people prone to be hateful. That obviously helps spread it, but it also shapes people. You raise people in a hateful world, they will be hateful. If you raise them in a loving generous kind world, then they are trusting and kind.

But there are always some people that are naturally hateful, and selfish, and greedy, and only care about themselves. The narcissists. And they will seek power, and try and spread hate.

You’re wrong. Many people are impressionable. Some are not. Those that are, the algorithm knows who they are. Especially young people. So it shows them things to brainwash them with. Make them think some groups are bad people, by what they show them. The people they know this won’t work with, they just show them what they want to see, and let that bounce around their echo chamber.

But they wont let certain things be seen by the people they are successfully brainwashing.

Musk didnt spend 44 billion to buy twitter for no reason. Paramount isn’t in a mountain of debt because brainwashing doesnt work.

Everyone on instagram is being brainwashed. But also being shown what they want to see, and given the illusion they are seeing everything they want to see. Its a trick. Its effective. People are fucking stupid to use the psyops weapons maga controls.

They are not being unsuccessful. Their measure is not how good your life is. Its how good theirs is. And they are robbing you blind. They can run the country and the world into the ground, doesnt matter.

These people would prefer to be a king in medieval times, than a middle class person today.

They have succeeded in acquiring power, and they spend all your tax dollars on whatever shit they want for themselves. They’re having a blast.

The people getting fucked are those in the countries they are attacking, and those in the country they control, and the rest of the world too, due to oil prices etc…

But they dont care. They have so much money and can just steal more of your taxes, and accept more bribes from companies that want to take more of your worker rights away.

The people are suffering of dunning Kruger.

They think that believing and showing others in their echo chamber how stupid these people are is doing something. They think using the social media they control to make memes and jokes about them to themselves is doing something.

They think being morally correct, or knowing better policies for their country matters. They think its someone else’s fault, and why wont someone else do something about it?

And they just watch all their rights and freedoms evaporate.

They wont even stop using the social media maga controls, or boycott amazon, or McDonald’s or paramount, or any maga friendly company.

And they think their hands are clean because they voted for kamala and then sat back and watched as everything turned to shit, while all they do is blame others like boomers, who btw, protested the fuck out of everything and earned many rights you’re supposed to have today.

Things are going to get a lot worse for everyone. And they think those in charge are stupid for it. They dont give a shot about you. They’ll send you to die, or make you their slave. They dont care.

They are succeeding, the people are failing. They are losing to fucking idiots. Because they cant be bothered to fight back. All they can do is blame others and laugh at how inept their rulers are, as their rulers force them to live shittier and shittier lives. As they take from them, and do whatever the fuck they want.

It is immensely frustrating.
