Whitney Webb has been warning us for some years now that the game is pushing Palantir on us and she explicitly said they'll sell it to leftists for their "muh right wing extreemists" and to right wingers saying it'll be the way to deport immigrants

End game is we're all fucked. She's even said that the clique deciding and setting up this shit ain't even that big, maybe a couple of hundred people.

@apropos my only conclusion is that, the energy shortage was actually the goal, nothing else makes sense

@hazlin @apropos yeah this is in line with the great reset thing they wanted to do
make gas and jet fuel expensive as hell so it kills global travel, then force you into a 15 minute city with glorified golf carts

I don't vote but I went to a big orange rally in Kenosha in 2020 for the hell of it ... I remember looking around at all these people, a lot from Chicago or Milwaukee, and they gave of a vibe of, "well ... I guess this is the guy..." .. but now that I look back at the whole 10 years, I feel like a lot of the political narrative was directed in such a manner to turn people against each other.

Most people aren't hard left or right, but the people in the middle; the independents, anarchos, libertarians, volunteerists .. and right now even if they're all against going to war for Israel, none of them are going to stand with each other. It's amazingly constructed when you look at it.

@nanook My company actually pulled out of Europe. I want to say almost a decade ago when the GDPR and some other legislation predating that were passed. We decided to call it quits in Europe. It's an over regulated impoverished shit hole where any efficiency and improvements in operating their are dwarfed by the costs. It was roughly the same cost for us to ship goods into Europe via expedited shipping as it was to operate a warehouse in Europe and ship from within. The delivery time and cost ended up being about the same. The question became why bother when the amount of regulation we had to comply with kept on increasing. It eventually became not-worth-it. The consequences are Europeans are now at a disadvantage and can not obtain the hardware and accessories that work with GNU/Linux properly quite as easily. The one positive about operating from within Europe is users don't have to deal with customs. Now they do. They did this to themselves.

I don't understand. They already force fucking e-mail codes on nearly every fucking login all the damn time!

I'm either going to migrate to Codeberg or just setup my own Forgejo.

Shit like this makes me wonder if I would've been happier if I joined the RPGCodex forums instead of here back in 2020. (Decided to join either that or fedi after all the 8/v/ bunker drama) At least on a forum I can sort of avoid the politisperging and talk about my hobbies. I only picked this place because I'm not particularly interested in CRPGs and I was in favor of decentralization.

I just hate logging into this site only to find nothing but people doomscrolling, doomposting, and autistically spectating about the Iran war.
