You can search the articles. Find an illustration that encapsulates things. If you're using a PC, you can use GIMP to put text on an image. I think that, concerning such a mathematical type of technology, you'll probably have to explain things in text, and get people on board with using text instead of images. A good start would be to talk about the energy problems, but you'll find tons of news articles explaining why it's bad.
I was simply born in Cascadia and I just want Oregon to secede. I know that it seems unlikely but everything that's happened is unlikely.
I'm about as old as he is!
Alright, I'm putting this as my numerous reasons for splitting the Union.
by "this is stupid" I mean "the idea of chemtrails being used by the government is stupid".
I hate the government, but this is stupid, especially considering that the government was supposedly behind this the whole time. The people who think these are chemtrails have no ideological integrity. When they find something evil done by the United States, instead of standing against the United States, they believe that it was someone else's fault who is nonetheless powerful. To them, it could be George Soros' fault, it could be the Democrats' fault, it could be the Deep State's fault, but never America's fault. I believe many of the real problems today: people being left houseless and starving, masked ICE agents tormenting people, war in the Middle East between Israel and Iran, and so on are the fault of the United States--not Jews or Communists or Russo-Chinese interference--and it's not happening to America.

I loathe law-and-order rhetoric in any nation, but most certainly in America. Tough On Crime policies have led to the dumbest fucking things that have ever existed in the United States. People are voting for a serial liar and conman who will probably ship them off to Dijbouti or El Salvador just to stay away from someone who broke the law once, or who is likely to break the law. The lesson we should all learn is to stop going nuts over "crime waves". If the news claims that crime is "going through the roof" or that there is an "epidemic of crime", make sure to remember:
- There are way, way bigger threats to public safety than a few gangbangers, for example tech companies, evangelicals, and Nazis.
- Criminals are people too. They have hopes and dreams, motives, economic conditions, and opinions. Consider why someone is committing a murder or robbery, rather than assuming it's because of greed.
- There are for-profit security forces and prisons that all benefit from fear of crime. The news will often blow crime out of proportion to satisfy their sponsors, and downplay authoritarianism likewise.
- Police officers are often just as dangerous as criminals. It's better to think of crime as a situation that can be escalated and de-escalated (cops are notoriously bad at this) than as the result of Bad People who need Good People to stop them.
- There are a lot of good resources for reading about crime in a productive way. Although I am not quite Anarchist, the Anarchist Library has a lot of thought-provoking material on what makes law just and unjust. There's a big difference between "murder is wrong because the Law says so" and "murder is wrong because killing people is wrong".
- Some people are so evil that they need to be killed, i.e. Real Estate CEOs.
How about guillotining them?
I want every unironic Capitalist to see this and reflect on their system. Is this "democracy"? Was this worth all the resources spent to conquer Communism? Was this worth the United States being the "world police"? Is Capitalism really worth defending?
No way they're still worried about 9/11. That was over 20 fucking years ago.
