Because we had ~3 weeks worth of dystopia news in the span of ~3 days
I know it's stupid, but I have this nagging thought that they should use a narco sub next time.
Even if the majority of us don't (not happening) it'll still fool enough for them to justify their fascism to their supporters.
Almost certainly. But that doesn't make it less fucked.
I knew it was going to be bad, but fuck that comment section is radioactive.
I hope they're able to get through.
From wikipedia:
Lev Parnas is a former associate of Rudy Giuliani who was involved in the Trump–Ukraine scandal and the Biden–Ukraine conspiracy theory. He was convicted of illegal donations to Trump's campaign and sentenced to 20 months in prison in 2022.
In 2019, Parnas served as a translator for a legal case involving Dmytro Firtash, a Ukrainian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin and self-admitted Russian mob connections, who is fighting extradition to the U.S. to face bribery charges. Firtash has been free on bail in Vienna since 2014.
Strikes me as somebody who has a vested interest in adding more fuel to the fire. Either way this is scary and fucked.
I'm gonna miss food
I know its unlikely, but I hope they make another attempt and it's successful.
Ignoring the lack of evidence or argument presented here for that, I'd rather take a slowdown than Musk get a single new dollar.
Trans people, immigrants, etc fearing for their lives, being kidnapped to a foreign death camp, and going full conservationist on climate change is a lot bigger of a difference than 1.3%.
They're fascists, they always have an excuse. They can and did attack them under the excuse of the blockade.
