Signs of possible U.S. B-2 activity emerging. Eyes on Iran, the next 24 hours may matter. 👀
🚨🇺🇸 UNUSUAL U.S. AIR FORCE ACTIVITY RAISES QUESTIONS
Eight KC-135 Stratotankers have landed in Hawaii, a transit hub previously used ahead of June’s Middle East operations involving Iranian nuclear sites.
Now, two KC-135Rs have departed Hawaii and are heading west, drawing fresh attention to U.S. military movements.
hilarious how these things can't be done in complete secret to most of the world anymore
Yeah, we often say stuff like "wow my cyberpunk dystopia has none of the cool parts of a cyberpunk dystopia", but if you are creative, and you think about it long enough, there are definitely some cool parts.
It's just hard to enjoy them what with us basically being in a shooting war with a fascist state while everyone tries their hardest to pretend we aren't.
I sense something in the air. Something much much bigger than the BLM protests. If we had not already crossed the line before, I think the back to back shootings of Good and the couple in Oregon will make for what historians will trace the roots of the second American Civil War.
in a cyberpunk story the trans girls in the long socks would be able to down those planes from a coffee shop or public library.
Downs a pint of RC-spiked energy drink, puts on VR headset I'm logging on! Let's see, jumping out of the clearnet, purging my digital fingerprints... done.
Zooming to the Kuala Lumpur node... here we go. OK, now changing my avatar to be that of a FinanceWeb Spider-Crawler.
Bouncing to Mexico City, 3rd Level Shadowhub. Attempting to find traces of transactions by USAF pilots in Tijuana.
This one looks juicy... hmmm, yep, got him. He bought convenience store dick pills with his credit card. Currently operating a BX-2 over the Pacific.
Hijacking the man-machine interface... Oooh yeah, handling it. Sliding into the BX-2's gestalt field. I AM the bomber.
Doing a 180. We're going to Virginia, friends!
Do the pilots temporarily increase their IQ before air strikes with dick pills?
They sacrifice their dicks to boner rot for the US empire. Sadge.
these are cyberpunk dick pills that turn your grey matter into erectile tissue
I wish China made this game
Be the China you dream of
no no it has to be "choombas" or "chummers" or something else, otherwise it's not authentically Cyberpunk
so that means all the other words i typed were acceptable, right?
how about "AirBuds"? "Phyle-Membos"? "ClannerZ"?
now were cooking
...Johnny Arson, we have a mission for you.
maybe she can.. but probably only one and then she'd be toast
they kill one white lady and now we're in a shooting war
Yes but we all knew for the majority of America to get the memo it was going to require a pretty white girl dying. That is just the sad reality we live in.
That's gross
Yes America is a vile country. Also I didn't say that is when it actually started which we could nitpick all the way back to landing on Plymouth Rock.
I mean technically it goes back to the development of caste and proto-capitalism in western europe. Check out Black Marxism its a dense read, but so worth it.
that's what pisses me off about all this anger. Sure, yes it is justified to be angry about ICE openly killing people, but how many non-whites have they killed so far and barely a mum from anyone over it? One white and now it's gone too far.
My thoughts exactly. Even some of the crackers on here are like "shits really hit the fan now, white people its time to get buy a gun" racist ass reactionary motherfuckers y'all are still not getting it. 😒
mood
We're starting to have braincells grown in labs used as processors for computers. Ukraine is coated in internet cables used in the control of tiny killer drones. The government knows so much about you that it practically knows nothing about you because it cannot handle all the data. A message on a website by someone pretending to be a company can kill the stock value of said company - for a day, until someone somewhere types in an extra zero on the right account.
A tiny piece of plastic carries your life's worth and if you don't use it then you will never be able to owe someone money for a house. The most powerful men in the world regularly appear on public entertainment systems in order to sell "crypto-coin" a version of money thats even further detached from what gives it value, the only purpose of which seems to be to purchase drugs, illegal pornography, order murders, launder money or to function as a scam. It is in fact expected of the seller of cryptocurrency that they artificially inflate its' value.
Modern day heists involve replicating other peoples phones in order to access "bit coin wallets".
Your phone knows your name.
It shares it with all the devices that are in your apartment.
Yesteryears devices are gathered in massive heaps in less wealthy countries, where young kids scrap them for precious metals. The more knowledgeable of them will refurbish electronics into Frankensteined devices more powerful than what the average Western consumer has, either because it is not shackled with the same spyware or because computer parts have increased in price while the quality has remained the same, at best.
When the hoi polloi are stuck at home hiding away from dangerous weather - Hurricanes, blizzards, tornadoes or evermore frequent firstorms - they can use their phone to have a less fortunate soul bring them food, snacks or regular groceries. This luxury can be paid for through various loan services.
Your phone knows you gave it a fake name.
I could go on, but im becoming cliché. Still, I "love" to think about how cyberpunk the world is.
The thing is, as TankieTanuki pointed out, they have their transponders on. They are letting it be known on purpose.
This is just ADS-B, which aircraft can turn off at any time by switching off the XPDR. The US is absolutely capable of moving planes in secret (at least relative to the general public, as KC-135s show up on radar). Whenever you see military aircraft show up on a flight tracker, they either don't care about being seen, or are saber rattling. The Trump USAF loves to show off when it repositions aircraft though, so I imagine the coming forward deployment of a B-2 to Diego Garcia or Al-Udeid will be done with XPDRs on, parking in open air, and a Twitter post to accompany the flight.
