It's not too late, but it won't happen without a fight, and in fact, it's the fight they're so desperately distracting us from.

Their dream is to have us build their Death Stars. We should crush their dreams.

It's a bit tongue in cheek. We're like that.

"Cooked" (lemmy.zip)

For a while it was "let him cook" which, I think, meant 'give them a chance, they seem to be on to something', but now when something goes bad people say it's "cooked". My question is, was it a mistake to let them cook? Thank you.

immediately thought of him. Asmond is regularly a voice for the wealthy, and he stays disguised by being disgusting. He's a rich guy pretending to be poor so he can influence actual poors to be self-destructive and complacent.

True. I guess a lot of it is also the fallout of Citizens United.

yeah wtf.... a sentient sun? First of all, how do we know the sun isn't sentient? And if it was/is why assume it would give a shit about humanity?

But also wtf... Like, he's trying to merge the sun with AI? Am I taking it too literally? He's trying to create god? So he can ask for forgiveness for being a pedo pos?

Thinking all of that can be controlled would fall under hubris IMO. The powers have done nothing but stoke resistance and rebellion against their hierarchies, or perhaps I'm just taking the bait...?

It's amazing that America somehow is destroying trust in itself from so many different directions right now, almost seems like a planned demolition, but I think it's more of a chaotic tragedy of errors due to horrible judgement. It's like the whole country got drunk on "American exceptionalism" (ie hubris) over the last 20 years, and here comes the hangover of the century.
