Liberals, man. Straight delusional, not far behind MAGA.

"This piece of paper says you can't do this, fascist executioner"

The East/West Coast should hold an emergency election and just fucking annex themselves from the red states. Trump can rule the USoChristianTalibanistan. Offer asylum to all the immigrants so they have no-one to work the farms and the locals have to work in forced labor camps. I give Talibanistan 6 months before they collapse.

There is, but the solution comes before the indoctrination. It's much easier to vaccinate and inoculate before being infected with the mental illness. After that, the best defense really is just a bullet. You can't operate a functional democracy when the majority of the population are demented and actively working to tear it apart.

I've had "America will become a Christian Nationalist dictatorship" on my bingo card since shortly after 9/11.

Never saw the Christian-Nationalist Ex-KGB-Agent-Alliance coming until 2016 though. Even when Romney was calling out Russia I was like WTF. Turns out he had inside intel.

No no no. You just have to remember the cardinal rule of fascism! Everything holds a quantum superposition of right and wrong until you choose to disagree with it... for some reason. Please refer to the following MAGA pseudo-code:

if (woke || baddie) {
   return "communist cancel culture"
} else {
   return "freedom boycott"
}

It doesn't matter that he has several hundred billion more votes than anyone. Money is speech bro. Legalized bribery is democracy. Well it was. Now fascism and dictatorship are democracy. That's called Freedom™️!

Math, despite being a great skill to have, is not mandatory for a large volume of programming roles. It may hurt you in some interviews but interviews are a fucking crap shoot / shit metric either way. Computers do most of the math, so you don't have to!

Source: I'm dyslexic, suffered from dyscalculia and migraines until I was allowed to use a calculator, and barely passed high school math. No degree. No bootcamp. 8 years as a dev.

I've also excelled in multiple roles where colleagues were math or CS PHD's, and become the senior or go-to on more projects than not. The key part is to know your strengths. I'm never gonna accept a role developing accounting software, or anything that would require me to code complex math on a regular basis. You'd be surprised how far you can get with Google.

Decomposition is irrelevant. Nothing you flush decomposes by the time it gets to treatment (or the ocean / fuck the environment amirite). The main problem with these wipes is they don't even break apart. Their little sabotage trojan horses that corporations injected into out sanitization systems, and we continue to let them falsely advertise, instead of fining them for ALL the damages they cause.

Yes, my comment was based on historical facts and indicators. It wasn't a hypothetical.

Yes, and I'm saying that the fact this could even be viewed by Microsoft as something that is worth going to trial, and being argued in court = hyper-capitalist dystopian dictatorship.

In a sane world not "by and for corporations", this tactic would not even be in the realm of plausibility.

Why yes ... I am aware 1+1=2

This is perfect. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you are the perfect example of why America just voted for fascist dictatorship — you still believe MAGA's are the problem, completely ignorant of the fact that you, your beliefs, and your support for money-is-speech corporate-owned politics places you in the upper percentiles of most-to-blame voters; the older and better educated you are, the more you are to blame. If you've voted R your whole life and are 50+, you're like top 5-10% responsible.

Now you'll consider yourself a Democrat, and support your conservative-indoctrinated idea of "moderate" politics, shifting the already center-right Democrats and Overton window even farther right, while supporting the fallacy that non-profit healthcare, education etc are "radical leftist" beliefs, instead of "what the rest of our allies have had for 50-100 years"... you'll solidify the fascist dictatorship over the next 10-20 years, and you'll do it all, while blaming "the left" — the very people who have been warning that "this would lead to fascism and extremism" for decades.

If I were born in America, I'd probably have ended up less educated and be some tankie communist or MAGA fascist myself because of fellow cotizens just like you. I've never felt better to be Australian, and born under the umbrella of a far more stable, compassionate, governance; despite conservatism/neoliberalisms best efforts to the contrary.

 

Thus, conservatism and neoliberalism are, in reality, the radical agenda...
