These assume such oversight has been dismantled. They then become private systems, controlled by a few oligarchs, that fill a the void. This is why tech bros love “disruption” and conservatives love privatization. See: what republicans and every other far-right movement is doing on this planet.

Even if all the fairy tales about democrats being bad were true, it would still be vote blue because red is literally suicide at this point. When people decry that democrats haven’t earned their vote, I like to ask exactly what line republicans would need to cross to earn their vote against.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
People love to proclaim how abjectly stupid conservatives are while ignoring the capacity for such among their own. Only one thing is true beyond any doubt: they are at least smart enough to show up in election days.

Fired already? But voters just hired him less than a year ago…
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Even if you show them ironclad proof of how wrong they were or manipulated they are, they won’t admit it. They’ve gone deep into the sunk cost fallacy.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
During the campaign, their excuse for targeting democrats was “they’re the ones in power”, yet now that republicans have complete control of everything they still only talk about Biden and Harris. Funny isn’t it?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Hahaha the dumbass blocked me. Shocking that the moment someone injects some reality into their horseshit they just reinforce the walls of their echo chamber.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
You mean the path that had a ceasefire and plan to get hostages released in place? The path that had forced Israel to maintain humanitarian corridors and aid getting in? The path that had at least some weapon sales restrictions? All of those were gone what, like a week into trump’s term? Lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Just waiting for one of you dipshits to explain what the next step in your plan to save Palestine is after the “get trump a second term” stage was complete. 🤷♂️
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Great job! The evil democrats have been defeated! Gaza is saved and you are their savior! Huzzah!
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Still waiting to hear that brilliant next step in the saving of Palestine!
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
More dem bashing horseshit out of you. Stop whitewashing history.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I’m 100% sure you’ll have reasonable answers then. 😂
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
The American electorate literally failed an open book test last November. Project 2025 is about halfway complete. And everyone was warned.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Still waiting on step 2.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
This shouldn’t be hard for you to answer. Do it now.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Sure you will. Lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
So no answer then? Just want ignore reality?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I must have asked a dozen of those idiots that question, so far not a single answer that makes any sense or has any connection with reality. They are quite predictable on their willful blindness though. Which is funny considering how much be they claim to care about the issue.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
So no answer. Got it.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Projecting? Lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Funny how you lackwits always deflect. What was the next step? Since things have become materially and significantly worse in Palestine since trump let Netanyahu off the leash, you either misplayed this by mischaracterizing the previous administration or have another step in the plan. Which is it?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
More deflection. Lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
So that’s a ‘no’ on step 2 then? Just typical “dems bad” horseshit from cretins like you?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I wasn’t the person you asked dipshit. lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Just out of curiosity, what was step 2 of your grand plan to save Palestine after defeating the evil democrats? Sure the democrats had forced Israel to maintain aid and humanitarian corridors and gotten a ceasefire brokered with a plan to get hostages out, but clearly you prefer they lost. So now?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
And you don’t think many of those people simply said that to try to excuse their lazing?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh look, another logic-free dipshit.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Literally AND figuratively.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
That’s not wrong but exit polls but those only survey voters, not non-voters. As far as non-voters go, I don’t even think it was anything beyond simple laziness. I think that the inflation result is inflated (heh) because racism and sexism are still not admitted to or recorded to reflect reality.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Love you too boo 😘
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
If I thought you were capable of having a fact and reality centered discussion I would. Your own statements prove you are not capable of.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Well put but I’d say the test was last November. It was open book. The people failed. Now I think it’s highly likely the US doesn’t see a legitimate election for a long while.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Glad to see you’re still a hopeless dipshit.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Funny way to spell “American electorate”.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Maybe if you idiots ever looked all the details and the big picture you get more than insults. As it stands, that’s all you’re worth.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Incorrect. Just ensuring I give you credit for your oh so helpful “activism”. 😘
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Everything you said was lacking critical details or outright wrong. But people like you will never learn.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Congrats on saving Palestine!
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Wow, so many TikTok talking points! Do you get a punchcard you fill up for a free ice cream or something?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
You are an idiot. It was funny at first but now it’s just boring.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I don’t want favors. I want them to do their civic duty. But that’s all done now. The US is not likely to have another legitimate election for quite some time. Thanks voters!
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
They literally did.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Sounds like you took an idiot pill sometime after the election.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Trump was the vastly worse option. But people like you don’t want to acknowledging that.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Again, I learned last November that expecting Americans to do their civic duty is a fool’s errand. Now you get another lesson from Trump to show you more consequential despite the fact that we were still sorting out the mess from round one.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Glad to help. ;)
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
They could have simply taken time to look into policy positions instead of being whiny, lazy pieces of shit.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Keep waiting for the perfect candidate. It will totally work out.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
You’re supposed to learn that elections have consequences. But that lesson seems out of reach for most of you lackwits.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Go look at the archives. You clearly need to address your ignorant.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Only to you cupcake. 😘
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Ok then. You got what you wanted. She lost. Congrats. Why aren’t you acknowledging that you got your wish?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I’ve long given up worrying about dipshits like you. November was the final nail in the coffin. You and the rest of the electorate have proven that you’re incapable of learning anything.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Then they should have voted, huh?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Ahhh yes, waiting for perfection. I’m totally sure that strategy will work one day.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
The entire American election did this. Enjoy it.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Nope. But you keep inventing harebrained argument to support yourself.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Perhaps you should just acknowledge that your country is just full of fascists? Election results are what they are.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Hahahahaha man you need to lay off the hallucinogens.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Again, no desire from you to actually learn anything.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I hate to break it to you, but the campaign is over. You won! The evil democrats lost! Go you!
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
But it’s not an effort to combat homelessness. Republican policy is simply designed to keep their base on the same page. You really are dumb as a rock huh?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Keep on coping moron. lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Why are all your criticisms of democrats social media nonsense?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Well you dipshits seem to have problems understanding simple facts so I have to repeat them.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
They do not. No republican in the nation acknowledges the need for mental health services and addiction treatments as a tool to help combat it.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
In the real world where the American electorate has demonstrated its laziness over the course of the entire modern era. But hey, don’t let facts get in the way of your “hate the dems” party.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I never said it was the whole fix. I said I applaud efforts to address it. Learn to read, numbnuts.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
The only pathetic one here is you, who refuses to acknowledge the real world.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh no, democrats didn’t use a magic wand to solve, overnight, a problem that will take generations to properly address?!?!? They should all burn! lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Incorrect but hey, it fits your warped agenda to peddle that line I suppose.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
You can't appeal to someone who refuses to open their eyes.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
See above.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
So you prefer no solution to a starting point? This is why no one takes you morons seriously. You expect everyone to fix everything for you, overnight with some kind of magic, exactly as you dream it should be fixed. Then when reality doesn't cooperate you blame everyone but yourselves.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Because voters are lazy and refused to keep themselves informed. Easy.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
"outranking" hahahahaha Holy shit man you are much more idiotic than I previously believed.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah but that's not how you started is it? You started by ignoring reality, pushing nonsense, and peddling murc's law drivel. All while ignoring the only party with true impact over the situation: voters.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
You can't even acknowledge reality. So hey, my choice to troll dipshits versus your absolute inability to think critically, I guess. lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
But they don't connect those people with temporary housing, medical and mental healthcare resources and addiction help. It even talks about that in your article. lol
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I could. You refuse to learn so I'll let the history book be the thing you ignore.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I do. :)
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Incorrect.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
If you had access to more than one functioning brain cell maybe you'd be worth more effort. :)
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Let me guess, you only care about the "clear encampments" bit and ignored the rest?
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
The context where you can learn about it in a history book.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Go look.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Clearly not.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Pull your head out of your ass for five seconds and go look.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Open a history book.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Sure, it doesn't exist in the hole in the sand you clearly buried you head in.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Of course. That's why I am happy to see efforts to combat it. And those efforts never seem to come from republicans, funny.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
I think you should probably add that word to you list of words to learn the meaning of.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
They really didn't. Perfect? No. But it was a good campaign.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
You're trying to remove context to fit your narrative. ftfy
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
Go look at their proposals.
grainsofsanity.bsky.social (@grainsofsanity.bsky.social) reply parent
See? More lack of actual information from you. You really aren't doing yourself any favors by simply believing what accelerationists online tell you.
