We’re lucky we got a story about it. It’s because there was clear video evidence. The police are fucking notorious for sweeping stuff like this under the rug.

John Oliver talks about several instances with and without bodycam footage that they try to hide. And, again, those are just some of the cases we know about.

Your trust in media is misplaced. Following that logic, genocide is normal, hence why we don’t get many stories on what’s actually going on.

Just think of Alex Pretti and Nicole Good. We know, not because of the police or media, but because bystanders had clead evidence to push the media to actually do their jobs for once.

Further case in point is how little we’ve heard about ICE recently. Because they’re still out in force. But I suppose because the violence and rogue law enforcement is “normal” we don’t need to report on it anymore, huh?

1984 is a very relevant read right now.

White justice

Also, the law is selectively applied if you hadn’t noticed. Gotta keep the plebeians in line and keep the bootlickers loyal enough. Easier to keep this one on the job than to find another to do the elite’s bidding.

Welcome to the post-modern era of truth. Where objective reality doesn’t matter, only personal truth and reality. If what you’re saying doesn’t fit my personal truth, you’re using fake news or making it up. Even scientific research is fake news if it doesn’t fit my narrative. Just look at who funded the research.

Honestly, idk what we’re going to do. It feels like with all the age verification laws being pushed, the mass surveillance, and the quelling of dissenting opinions, the world admins are looking at 1984 as a guidebook. Are we going to get a Ministry of Truth established soon to “verify” what is accurate and what is not?

I might recommend a game called 1000xResist

Sometimes, the whale is too big to fit in the backpack. You can’t take everything with you. Keep this in mind when you reach the ending.

While we want everyone to have decent lives we have to reckon with the fact that there are people, even if they are provided everything that they need to have a decent and happy life, they will still choose to harm others around them to get ahead.

We call them billionaires.

And I believe that when faced with complex problems and fears, studies have shown around 30% of people will flock to authoritarianism. They crave not having to face ambiguity and a simple answer to complex problems they wish to hide from. Even if those answers are lies.

The english language literally steals words from other languages and adopts them.

I can keep going but I think you get the point. Some english songs do throw in other languages at times too.

Many Asian songs, especially Japanese and Korean will often include english because they are all taught english in school and english is used in the business world. When visiting Korea and Japan, in major cities, a large amount of signage will include english to aid tourists.
