You are taking position that democracy is perfect for how much Republicans and Zionism controls our lives the exact right amount, or we would have had the perfect amount under Harris, Biden, HRC, and Obama. Including Obama as neocon zionazi in that list, for giving top 2 jobs to the most neocon Republicans with a D on them. Our system is complete tyrannical shit, that requires raising $Bs. It is not freedom to be forced into participating in a corrupt system, and when the system is so divisive, the right answer of session lets "both" sides be free from the other.
Our system gives the winning side fascist power, even when little to nothing other than war happens under Democrats. That "tech bros" want a scheme for even less taxes, doesn't mean you can't use the same scheme to escape tyranny and form the society you want.
😂😂😂 way to put words in my mouth. We wouldn't be in this position if there were massive glaring issues in our system. Anyone who has an interest in current events can see that
Fracturing the United States and pulling away quickly from the world stage in a way that damages our & our allies economy & relations is... a wet dream for China & Russia. China can take the pain as it swoops in and takes jobs & relations we leave behind. Not only that - if you're American - it's straight up traitor talk. We already went through one civil war about the south trying to secede so they could continue slavery.
The Tech bros specifically want a tech monarchy where each "country" is run by a CEO with absolute power that otherwise only responds to the board of directors (that, assumedly.. the CEO picks). Poor or don't like it? Get out and go to a different network state. If the fascist state even lets you leave.
For the record, AIPAC can rot.
As can anyone promoting this mold bug ideology nonsense. It is traitor talk.
I understand that it destroys the empire, and warmongering interests are harmed. But, the tech bros are talking as if the government will give them the right to secede, and buy a tax haven inside the US. Trump has signaled that selling public lands is a win for America. Once you open that door, then selling existing counties to people who want to be free from warmongering empire is/"should be" allowed too. In addition to freedom projects bidding on the same plots of land.
Again, instead of seeing the freedom for free association, you just see the loss of fighting political war where 51% decides to oppress the divisive half into war, and 99% of elected politicians support Palestinian genocide, war on Iran, and a substantial portion of them, war on Russia and China. You need to be ruled by those who can buy support for these wars. DNC didn't even fight voter suppression and vote rigging because Israel won with Trump. More voter suppression laws are being passed this week. Democracy in US is hopelessly broken, and the alternative to "the algorithm" in reverting it is to look at mainstream zionist media for revolution.
Like Netanyahu says, if we don't genocide them all then Iran wins.
Unity is awesome, but unity for what matters. We need $10k more expensive cars for all Americans so that Pensylvania steel, and Michigan auto workers get cushy jobs, and Texas oil workers help destroy planet, and they all vote GOP harder?, is a deep strain on unity. $20k cheaper cars from China is a win for secessionists. The mentality of needing China to lose, is self harm programming.
My point is entirely that those projects will not be as successful as secessionism with liquid democracy and UBI. The opportunity to grant tech bros their fascist project is opportunity for us to be granted freedom projects. US democracy offers no hope whatsoever.
You are delusional
"China and Russia are a threat that will only go away if they're dead. What else can we do besides shatter the nation that defends us and pretend that the tech bros would never try to conquer the new 'free' states we create"
You are in la-la-land. You are, at best, trying to buy a temporary peace that literally hands our enemies everything they want - the shattering of the US, and handing the traitors that helped that happen, land and time to prepare to do it to the rest of us.
Either incredibly stupid and short sighted or just a traitor pushing moldbud ideology.
