I mean, technically he is just a lich... Who so happens to have a cult that worships him, which somehow gave his incorporeal spirit power during his short absence after the defeat at the hands of his right-hand lieutenant, Kas, and has absorbed the power of a lesser deity to use as his own while escaping from imprisonment by the Lady of Pain for a failed plot to usurp the cosmic order when he infiltrated Sigil, the City of Doors.

So, not a god, just a lich with the power of a God.

Haha petty semantics!

I absolutely detest the equivocation of "benefits society" and "marked for profit".

Plenty of things have been discovered to have practical applications which can benefit society yet are shelved or have its implementation frustrated because it cannot be exploited for profit or threatens the profits of a preexisting application which it would replace.

A rich executive put the lives of others below penny pinching profits?

I'm shook. 🫩

Well, considering that the US and Britain literally invented Israel, that tracks.

This is one of those "if you cut a hole in a net, it then has less holes than before" type arguments and I'm all here for it.

Worked at an airport. The worst part of the job was dealing with the bullshit of TSA. Bunch of useless, self important pricks given unjust authority to harass individuals who are just trying to travel for some performative bullshit designed to soothe the minds of racists.

My Uncle is a close friend of Jeff Landry (R-Louisiana) and voted for Trump.

Constantly would demonize illegal immigrants with all kinds of vitriolic accusations. Then would immediately brag that his hydro seeding company is making so much profit because he hires almost exclusively illegal immigrants and pays them peanuts under the table.

I've reported him to the state numerous times but nothing ever gets done (remember who he is close friends with now...)

I hope he goes out of business. I hope it ruins him.

Literally annoyed right now because some dimwit fighting ghosts, saying that I was advocating for tolerance of right-wing fascism, because I said that the Balkanization strategy was not the strat in reply to a third individual's comment.

Also trying to say something about vulcanization, but idk what the chemical process of mixing rubber with sulfur has to do with geopolitics.

Maybe people will wake up to understand our system of "law and order" never was meant to serve people, only capital.

Yea, it did the exact fuckin opposite. Like we knew it would.

And every time we get someone on the hook as a ring leader (Epstein) or a reporter with information on the blatant corruption of our economy (Panama Papers|Daphne Anne Caruana Galizia) they end up dead and media coverage of the investigations go dark.

Then the people involved keep the noise to a minimum and the issues get swept away in the current of The Algorithm™.

Anyone who sees has been disenfranchised of the old avenues that assisted organizing local support networks that facilitated engagement in direct action. From the erasure of third spaces, to the oppressive cost of living, to the corporate controlled media, workplace culture to avoid "talking politics"(i.e. please don't unionize against the owners), and aggrandizing of unhealthy work-life-balance as something to be proud of instead of angry at, etc, etc, etc....

The US owning class has its workers by the balls. They spent decades building a paradise of exploitation. Every small gain we fought for to be slowly undermined by subversive powers turning us against each other and our own interest.
