The last decade or two proved all the "crazy" people of the 70's, 80's, and 90's correct.

There was, in fact, a shadow cabal of pedophiles attempting to take control of the US government.

They're now in power, and there isn't much we can do now but hope they get bored of it, because America has shown there isn't much we won't forgive, as long as you give a wink and a nod to the racists.

Is that the kid from home alone?

I mean, it's realistic. I know people who were at protests, and got arrested, and when they couldn't find a way to charge them with crimes, they put them in psych hold for a minimum of 72 hours, and there are known instances of people having this done that ended up in for long times.

NYPD got caught doing it to a cop who was whistle blowing in the late 00s.

[-] Jiggle_Physics@quokk.au 11 points 3 hours ago

I thought they got caught doing it more than once. But yeah, super shitty abuse of power.

[-] Catoblepas 4 points 3 hours ago

Honestly wouldn’t surprise me, I’m just familiar with the one case.

She would have been a lot more effective if she had just slept with all the top people and blackmailed them.

[-] Dookieman12@piefed.social 20 points 6 hours ago

Yeah, and if they don't play ball, she could put all the evidence in a big folder called The Epstein Files and send it to the white house. That'll show em.

[-] rafoix@lemmy.zip 7 points 5 hours ago

She was a total badass. If they don’t play ball she has other methods of making them stop.

Like putting her cigarettes in their urethras.

I know a guy who changed his name to Al Datacenter.

Does he get free electricity in return for kickbacks & bribes?

[-] Untamed_Star 7 points 4 hours ago

??? Paying an electricity bills with bribes (money)??

People who don’t ash their cigarettes drive me nuts.

[-] Salvo@aussie.zone 2 points 2 hours ago

We used to put sewing pins in cigarettes so the ash wouldn’t fall off.

Burning the chrome was probably very toxic, but hey, they were cigarettes and we were also breathing in Tetraethyl Lead fumes and lead paint particles in the 1980s.

The choice was intentional.
