Vocal critics of the Silicon Valley ideology and the venture capital business model who are not on the fedi are suspect. #SocialWeb

Saying they are focusing on the western hemisphere is just PR to try to placate antiwar #MAGA folks. They are not pulling back from other imperialistic commitments around the globe. All the bases will remain open. The ships are sailing everywhere. The weapon sales continue and the Pentagon budget is going up.

We are in this fucked up moment because we gave the guy who loves playing to our base instincts, the greatest tool to do exactly that. The tabloid king + the social media algo Good government requires the people to strive to follow our better angels. To think of the public interest. To not try to cheat the system at every moment. He tells us that's for suckers. And then proves it as he enriches himself at others' expense. The corporate platforms profit by triggering us. The worst of humanity.
