There are some people in my life that spend a lot of time defending what’s going on in America right now. And they think they are unbiased because they aren’t “necessarily supporting Trump, but what he’s doing needed to be done” (whatever that’s supposed to mean).

They go on about economics and long term whatever and they post all this shit from their “unbiased” sources and rant about how the media is so corrupt and nothing can be believed etc etc. The bit that is always missing from their arguments is anything relating to networks, the internet and cybersecurity. Because they just… don’t know about that side of things. And it’s like if they don’t know then it’s just of no consequence…?

It’s pretty tough to truly freak me out (unless you happen to be a spider). But if I were a sysadmin on these networks and saw this shit, I’d be totally freaked out.

"Trump claimed at a White House news conference that policies promoting diversity, equity and inclusion “could have been” to blame for the collision, the deadliest U.S. plane crash since November 2001.

Pressed on how he could connect the collision to DEI, Trump said, “Because I have common sense, OK?”"

This is some underpants gnomes level logic right here.

I have so many things I want to say about this. None of which are positive.

Do you have any positives on the concept? I’m really struggling to see how this is in any way a good idea.

Also why is this in my ad algorithm?! 😆
