A cashless society means your overlords will have COMPLETE control of your lives. Of course the oligarchs will have secret avenues of cash for themselves.

Seriously, if you are AWARE of propaganda, you are also aware that you have been influenced by it. Propaganda is pervasive in civilizations. It is simply manipulation. TV ads and guys trying to pick up chicks are everyday uses of propaganda.

I don’t miss the thousands of obnoxious, foul mouthed folks on FB that I routinely blocked. Haven’t experienced any of that on the fediverse yet.

“My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right.” - Carl Schurz:

It’s our civic duty to make our country better.

Some people may need to move because because they aren’t safe here right now.

Some people need to be removed, one way or another.

the DNC is the last place to find actual conservatives these days.

There is a good reason for this. Money to win elections comes from CONSERVATIVE corporations and populism isn’t on their wish list.

Nearly $3 billion USD flowed through the TRUMP cryptocoin

But wait, there’s more. Us taxpayer money will now be used to “invest” in these crypto scams.

Didn’t they say climate change was a hoax or was that just for their brain dead cult followers? Amazing how easily they are manipulated. It’s like Republicans captured all the media then spewed shit to dominate them, but hey, it works magnificently.

Hold off. Kraznov is getting so much shit he is going to walk it back, so he says. Can’t trust him any more than a rabid bat though.

Perhaps a better question is, “What are you doing to help?”.
Supporting a national strike, canceling Amazon, leaving FB, might be a good start. Contacting you representative who doesn’t represent you seems to be futile. Maybe flash protests?

Exactly! All a person has to do is to look around - the right buys up all popular media platforms and converts them to propaganda outlets.

Probably the oligarchs. They have been trying to install fascist dictatorships for a very long time.

Mostly sales and the self projection of being "cool.

The culture of incompetence, crime, failure, and collapse will become normalized? Not on my turf.

You are being way too optimistic. A lot of people will needlessly die, not only from violence but also disease, starvation, suicide and natural disasters.

People will be in danger either way with the violence prone goons in power. If you are armed, there will be justification to shoot you. Protest at more public and friendly places. That way you will likely have allies nearby. Also, folks need to be situationally aware and plan an escape path if things turn too dangerous.
