    Does freedom of the press even matter to this administration?

    They hate freedom of the press. They specifically don't want it, and are doing their best to shut it down, while steadily growing state-run media. Straight out of their Nazi handbook.

    Nothing to see here. And you can’t possibly make a comparison with anyone or any action throughout history. Just alarmist and belittling of other events. Because you know, COOTWH hasn’t killed 6 million people so he’s fine. In fact, I’d love to have a hamburder with him and have a few yucks with him. He’s human too.

    We don't want this particular thread falling off the first page.

    Trump's just blabbing about commies again.... and way way too many Americans have no fucking clue what that even means as far as I can tell, including Trump (or so-called communist nations, for that matter. I am sad about how the term has been so disgustingly twisted).

    And it's weird because he should know better.  The same nonsense was going on in the late 60s and early 70s (he is 5 years older than me, but I remember that era quite well).  It's discouraging to think how far we have not come in this country.

    DHS threatens to revoke Harvard’s eligibility to host international students unless it turns over disciplinary records

    https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/16/us/harvard-kristi-noem-international-students

    Most of us here already realize this to be true! 

    Really? I don't think so. If most people did, then something more would be happening, instead of most just going about their business as usual.
    What do you want to be done? People voted and these are the consequences. There’s protests all the time. Are you expecting an insurrection or some sort of overthrow of the government? Of course people are going about their business. 
    Going about your business and hoping for the best is what helped get us to the genocide of millions of Jews and WW2. 

    This is not hyperbole. This is month THREE of FOURTY EIGHT. Imagine how quickly shit is going to get to the point of no return. 

    Protests. Calling congresspeople day and night. Basically harassment, and back it off a bit so it isn’t illegal. 😂 
    I guess we’ll just have to revisit this in 4 years and hope you’re wrong. In the meantime, I most definitely am going about my business. I voted and will continue to, but that’s it for me. 

    How dare you.

    While I find this really amusing because it made me think, “is COOTWH really taking over the Vatican or is he leading Trombone Shorty down bourbon street?,” I also thought to myself that people better be paying attention to who the next pope is going to be and, perhaps, plan accordingly. Me, personally? I’m rooting for Pierbattatist Pizzaballa, if not for the name only.

    Good luck.

    I give it 5, maybe 7 years. Hey, but white, male privilege will spare or save you, right? Again, from Letter From An American:

    The attempt to gain control over artificial intelligence and human communication networks regardless of the cost to ordinary Americans might have a larger theme. As technology forecaster Paul Saffo points out, tech oligarchs led by technology guru Curtis Yarvin have called for a new world order that rejects the nation states around which humans have organized their societies for almost 400 years. They call instead for “network states” organized around technology that permits individuals to group around a leader in cyberspace without reference to real-world boundaries, a position Starlink’s terms of service appear to reflect.  

    Mastering artificial intelligence while dominating global communications would go a long way toward breaking down existing nations and setting up the conditions for a brave new world, dominated by tech oligarchs.

    This is literally JD Vance's ultimate goal.

    Elongitaint’s DOGE’s vast collection of personal information across platforms and databases is really scary shit. If you, general you, don’t think so, read up on the Nazi’s occupation of Holland and what and how they did what they did as it relates to the public’s “data” of the time. Knowledge is power and power is what the COOTWH fucks are after.
