@TJ1001 Absolute signature of a foul, corrupt political system.

Happens across the world - to one degree or other in EVERY nation. The adage about power corrupting is often compounded by power mad seekers of power getting in.

We live in interesting times Neil, let’s hope it gets boring again soon. I fear it may never be boring again though

@TJ1001 Agreed. Sadly.

Foundational to human survival in large groups such as towns and cities is TRUST.

That is being destroyed on multiple fronts - fake news, AI and bloody phones used zombie fashion wherever you look in public.

Even very bright people are caught in its dopamine trap.

Ultra bad. Ultra little being done to fix it as businesses make too much money from ads - governments dare not block that.

Doomscrolling could be blocked ultra easily technically.

@NicelyManifest

Imagine what they’ll do with A.I. I think that could be the final nail in the

@TJ1001 AI already used in warring. Anthropic under the spotlight ... AI businesses starting like Google did with goon intents often follow the money whilst blinding themselves to morals and ethics.
@TJ1001
Someone, somewhere, should be keeping track of thes crimes, for when .....

@RichRARobi

Imagine sure they are, but you just know they are also keeping a list of names for Trump to pardon of all and any crimes

@TJ1001
In ten, twenty years, when #trump 's world war is over, the winner, if there is anyone left, maybe will write their history of how it all started, who was profiteering, who was standing in the sidelines, who was impotent and frustrated.

The big question for me is, who will it be that writes that history?

Will it be one complete cover up, as with the #epstein case a few years back, or will the truth finally be told?

Would have been simpler if GOP were not corrupt.

@RichRARobi

The sad thing is, no one cares - Bush / Blair stood up and lied to the world / pretended Sadam was involved in 9/11 had WMD’s - despite evidence they made the whole thing up, the U.S. stole all Iraq’s gold, charged them to rebuild what they’d bombed. Murdered thousands - literally nothing happened. You should have a look at a meeting dick Cheney had with the oil companies to carve Iraq up - no one cares - and they’ll vote for the next trump and the rich will get richer and the world will burn
