So if you disagree with the state and its extra-state actors, they not only get to take away your rights, but your legal right to *defend* them.

Whatever you are at that point, it's not a citizen. It's a subject. Of a rule entirely hostile to you

All in the name of "democracy."

With an obvious addendum:

The regime's other purposes of stripping people of legal representation is that when the regime acts to strip them of rights, they have no way to seek legal redress

Against illegal acts, committed against them by state and state-adjacent actors.

This is... just treason. Against their own citizens. Against the root-deep ideals of the nation they pretend they protect

Their violent anarcho-tyranny is most visible. But this softer version is just as real—and even more corrosive to Americans than their violent crime itself.

He doesn't blame them for that, he gets the game

The rights written into the Constitution, and the social values that both flow from and uphold it, are being eaten away by termites who no longer believe basic legal protection should apply to American citizens who disobey them.

One of the DDOS protection outlets Moon contracted said they were devoted to content-neutrality, they fully intended to protect his speech

Until it came out they were. Within the next hour, they were contacted by 15 journalists. Being a very new corp, of course they dropped him

You might have noticed the same pressure campaigns were levied against no less a figure than President Donald Trump, in the aftermath of the 2020 election

To most law firms, his case was made radioactive. And journalists *celebrated* that they had helped make this so.

These are two basic, fundamental pillars of American values:

The notion of fully protected free speech

And the notion that *everyone,* even if they're a literal rapist mass murderer, deserves fair representation in the court of law

Journalists have now started the same campaign against his *legal representation*, trying to get his lawyers to drop him, by contacting past clients

Wielding their ability to apply economic/social pressure to make sure that, if he is accused of a crime, *he won't have a lawyer*

It's worked (so far). DDOS is a federal crime. Journalists have, very simply, wielded their power to make his website vulnerable to criminal attack

Meanwhile he has (understandably) a lawyer to protect himself from legal claims. You should be able to guess what's happened next

Kiwi Farms is a giant rabbit-hole but the gist is that, as far as I can tell, Moon hasn't done anything in violation of US law.

But a media campaign was just leveled against him to get his site taken down by pressuring companies into stripping him of DDOS protection.

Today Josh Moon of Kiwi Farms mentioned something under-discussed, which is how the media class increasingly acts to strip people of protection *from* crimes

I'm talking non-violent ones, here. This is a form of soft anarcho-tyranny, or the robbing of rights through other means

You feel a hatred. One as pure and potent as the sunlight touching your skin. You look around yourself, and you see hollow vessels with no identity. No past. No future. But that isn't how it used to be.

@litdogger I hate the fact that that just reminded me of a macro Artist that for some reason always has the characters destroying Italy, mama Mia.

Stuttery and inconsistent, but more than playable. It seems to struggle more with the rendering pipeline and shader compilation than it does with ship AI, which is certainly interesting. Definitely not the case on my desktop. Might have to do with that RDNA2 architecture.
