Resist and Revolt

Good moment to recommend Victor Klemperer’s The Language of the Third Reich. What Klemperer observed in the 1930s can be neatly applied to the MAGA regime and its brutalization of the English language.

Trump’s Rhetoric Is Frightening and Toxic

What our leaders say—and whether or not they are truthful—matters. Donald Trump's vile word games are not compatible with democracy.

There is so much more to this story. Turns out the #idiocracy we currently live in -- I'm not joking, this administration has proudly turned "America the Beautiful" into "Shamerica the Awful"-ly dull and stupid -- this idiocracy requires a majority of idiots to maintain itself and unfortunately for them (but, it figures, bc they're sooooo obviously dumb) most humans are ultimately too smart for it. Those suffering from #billionaire's disease don't know it. Hence #Copilot. https://www.slashfilm.com/2138871/hacks-hannah-einbinder-harsh-words-ai/

If it's for entertainment purposes only it should be opt-in not opt-out. I have to constantly check my settings every time something updates because copilot will creep its way back.

Microsoft Copilot terms of service have been updated to include this gem: "Copilot is for entertainment purposes only." https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/02/copilot_terms_of_service/
Even Microsoft knows Copilot shouldn't be trusted with anything important

: Terms admit it is for entertainment only and may get things wrong

Trump? He's just the useful idiot of the global oligarchy. They're the ones running the global war & climate purge.

"Maybe climate change is a good way of dealing w/ overpopulation" ~Joscha Bach (funded by Epstein)

Fascistic tech bros have long asked which of us are worth saving. Their answer: "the richer the worthier."

Their eugenics are now US policy. So-called "overpopulation" is a cover story.

A wise man would stop talking about himself when describing others. It's so obvious. Stupid is as stupid does. A fox smells his own hole first. This guy licks it and loves it.
