Decades of pro-Capitalist/anti-Socialist propaganda is a terrible thing.

The ruling class won't even allow any serious speculation or research on any system that might take the place of Capitalism. Because they know it will take away their power.

Vance in the back looks like he's waiting for the orange menace to keel over at any second.

Well, it was a fun diversion for most of Labor Day weekend, while it lasted. Let's hope it happens again, soon.

Has he come to his senses and recanted all his anti-vax stuff yet? Until then, I don't give a crap about anything he says.

I still think they're trying to figure out how to stuff the body full of animatronics.

Could be Vance announcing the orange menace's passing.

I just noticed that about the announcement myself, and speculated the exact same thing.
Erik "Geekydad" Kennedy (@geekydad123.bsky.social) reply parent
Actually- if you look at the exact wording, it just says, "The President"... not "President trump". So, there's still a chance.

Stuff the body with animatronics and try to pass him off as alive?

A bit late- it's already gone. Apparently you all didn't notice.

We're truly in the worst cyberpunk dystopia. All the mega-corp abuses, but we don't even get cool cybernetics. Instead of Cyberdyne and Arasaka, we've got Wal*Mart.

Yes. But. Do you really think Vance is capable of stepping in to take trump's place? Everyone, including Maga, hates him.

They're probably installing the pneumatics for animatronic control of the corpse.

I mean, the legacy media is saying he's been seen golfing, but we've been told, by trump himself, not to trust what they say.

They wouldn't tell us if he was. They'd stuff him full of animatronics and keep parading him around. And none of the Republicans would say anything.

I worked retail at the time and absolutely remember the terror. Also the feeling of relief when we could finally get vaccinated, like a massive weight was being lifted. How *dare* RFK Jr take that away from us? As well as the mRNA cancer vaccines. There isn't a place in hell hot enough for him.

RFK Jr must resign immediately or be removed from office.

I'm calling it now- in September, RFK Jr is going to announce his "team" has "determined the cause of autism" to be vaccines, and attempt to end over two hundred years of medical advancement by making them illegal. He must be removed from his position now. He's already caused enough harm.

I'm not related, but there isn't a hot enough place in hell for RFK Jr.
Erik "Geekydad" Kennedy (@geekydad123.bsky.social) reply parent
He needs to be disgraced and pushed out, and every one of his actions rescinded. Cutting vaccinations, cutting cancer research- there isn't a place in hell that's hot enough for him.

California has one of the largest economies in the world. We could always go off on our own. I bet a few other states might want to join us.
Erik "Geekydad" Kennedy (@geekydad123.bsky.social) reply parent
I said, way back then, that RFK Jr would singlehandedly create a black market for fluoride treatments and vaccines. And it's looking like I was completely correct.

My dad passed from this type of cancer. There isn't a hot enough place in hell for RFK Jr for killing the funding for treatments like these.

We need real, actual Universal Healthcare. Like nearly every other country has. We've needed it for decades.

He is making things demonstrably less safe for us, our families, our children. We need to be out on the streets pushing for his removal. Writing our politicians pushing for his removal. Everyone should be focused on his removal. Also, release the Epstein Files.

I want it to bring him down- being on the Epstein list should bring down absolutely everyone involved. But there's been so many things that *should* have taken him down already. He's managed to get away with absolutely everything all of his life.

"Big Oil" knew about climate change decades ago. Instead of taking action to move to sustainable technologies, they tried to cover it up, going for profit over our very existence. Some day, all the execs responsible should be tried for crimes against humanity.

Doesn't matter. Miller and the oligarchs will stuff his body with animatronics and keep him moving and "talking" (with help from AI.) And though it will be obvious, none of his cult, nor the Republicans in Congress, will say anything.

No I don't agree with you. You're using the Air Bud Loophole. "Stock manipulation is illegal." "Are buybacks illegal?" "Well, they're considered stock manipulation..." "But does the law specifically say dogs can't play basketball/buybacks are illegal?" "No, because it's already covered broadly..."

How many sources do you want me to give? I mean, Forbes is second on the search but I could link a bunch of different sources. Prior to 1982, they were deemed to be illegal stock manipulation. So, while you might "technically" be right, it's a vacuous argument. www.forbes.com/sites/aalsin...
