We live with technology that enables nearly free sharing of beneficial things, but we can't fully use it without working through the ownership/profit/survival/class thing.
That thing is bigger than this technology highlighting it.

Hard to believe in this environment of authoritarian overstep, Congress would advance a mandate that enables "law enforcement" to disable your car.

They've already swallowed major fantasy improbables based on what they're told, how to interpret their book, what local leaders say, and not their own assessment of reality.
So if anyone can believe the nonsense that the guy guilty of fraud, rape, money laundering, theft, constant lying, serial adultery, ignorant of church and church teachings, is actually a savior picked by God, it could be these guys.

Lazuli isn't up there yet, so we don't yet know how bad the mistakes are, if any.

Oh, but they'll never put ads on art screens (rolls eyes).

Public health mandates save tens of thousands of lives, many many more hospitalizations. Get over yourself.

Um, the guy at the top was using loyalty oaths 6 years ago. We're already into the Concentration Camp stage of fascism, with warrantless & process-free seizure adding a little drama to being off-white: they're taking you just because, not telling anyone where or why, that birth certificate or passport could be fake - bye.
Next is shooting people who disagree, on a whim and in the street.

"because it's obvious" won't hold up under scrutiny. I'm tellin' ya.

If 95% of everyone got the vaccine protocol, it would have stopped transmission. Not individually but epidemiologically. Go ahead and argue the pedantics of the semantics.

We're sure that the absence of vaccines won't stop any virus. But the skeptics aren't telling you that either.

They're not just wrong, they're stupendously, stupidly, idiotically wrong by street-level human standards. Sure it can find & assimilate amazing things, except when it can't, and then you wonder about what you thought it just did correctly.

Not just Lincoln, the North made a mistake after the Civil War, like Congress and The People made a mistake after J6. Insurrectionists who are put down, we now know, can't be forgiven and allowed to make nice. We see that they with their misguided culture breed and grow and rise back to cause a load of trouble. Rather we have to prosecute insurrectionists severely, to show everyone that this was serious, damaging, deadly, and they can't be allowed to break the law with impunity again - because they've been executed or imprisoned for life.

Dick, and Bush II, hated that damned buffoon Trump. I always thought his daughter was supporting him, not the other way around.

In time your AI reality will have very little to do with whatever this is now.

We're past this. We can thrive now without the huge carbon emissions. We're prisoners of billionaire profit streams because those profits resist change.
