Sounds less terrible than swamp ass and bollocks, if you ask me.

Correlation =/= causation

That’s not lunatic at all, though.

That’s the thing right. I dunno. I haven’t been given the option. And so I ain’t running my mouth about it, because I know I don’t know.

I ain’t spending my days shooting at the range and waving flags and talking about my right to bear arms and how I’ll fuck up anyone who dares threaten my freedom, am I? I just wish those people would actually do what they always talk about. See what happens. Maybe realise they really do have the power.
Our peasants stormed a military garrison inside a castle with whatever they had to go get those weapons to start a revolution. But apparently for the US, eating cake is the preferred option. Seems weird to me.

Sure sure he was manipulated, instrumentalized, whatever. Like Derek in American History X. But this ain’t the US. He was in Lyon, who venerates Jean Moulin, who judged Klaus Barbie. He had every opportunity for an education that would tell him what a fucking idiot he was being. He was a pawn, sure. But at some point it’s just natural selection. Fuck him. And fuck all who made him.

Eh, that little shit who get his head bashed in didn’t. But he had a minute of silence at the Assemblée Nationale. That is more worrying that hypothetical guns.

No, I think squid says “will try again later if study…” something

I’m constantly surprised and disappointed this hasn’t happened.
In France, we take to the streets for the smallest issue (or so they say), and the world mocks us. Meanwhile the gun crazy crowd in the US only ever uses their god given arms to gun down their neighbours and schoolmates. Great job!

I have this feeling it’s more like a mentalist mind-trick.

We are fed so many inputs from so many sources, we don’t notice the influence, but we end up thinking about such and such, maybe talking about it with other people and suddenly, lo and behold! the algorithm presents us with an ad for the very subject that was on our mind! Mind reading! Magic!

But just like a Derren Brown subject, we just picked the card he wanted us to pick from the beginning.

I reckon the only thing preventing us from being completely subjugated is the amount of actors trying to influence us simultaneously, as we flock through our attention grabbing sources.

Which is why the consolidation of media is such a worrisome phenomenon. One dude controlling an entire network of sources means you are constantly under the same influence.

And then you get MAGA.

I wonder what’s next?

Thou maidenless cur are thus for a reason.
