Yup *sip*

Cardinal Marx, head of the German conference of Bishops, has come out in opposition to calling Europe the “Christian West”, as he considers it “exclusionary”.

He previously donated 50,000€ to NGOs that ferry migrants across the Mediterranean.

It’s a sad state of affairs.

“Restricted immigration is not an offensive but purely a defensive action. It is not adopted in criticism of others in the slightest degree, but solely for the purpose of protecting ourselves. We cast no aspersions on any race or creed, but we must remember that every object of our institutions of society and government will fail unless America be kept American.”

— Calvin Coolidge (1872-1933). 30th President of United States (1923-1929)

America is going to end up with a privatized version of China’s social credit score system.

Corporations won’t admit it exists but it’ll have very real consequences for those it considers objectionable individuals.

If you don’t think they’d do this, just look at how several major Silicon Valley corporations conspired last year to effectively banish Alex Jones from the Internet.

Unlike China, however, American citizens are armed! 

Surely this could only end well for the corporations involved!

I think you’ll be disappointed if you hope for Americans to take up arms against big corporations or anything like that.

Middle America has gotten fucked over by neoliberalism, deindustrialized and demographically replaced for the past 30 years and that resulted in the opioid epidemic, not in uprisings.

For the 3rd year in a row I’m seeing people give Netflix’s A Series of Unfortunate Events a try and then get disapointed/angry that nothing good ever comes out of it that everything always seem to go wrong for the Baudelaire and I’m just… if only someone, anyone…. had warned them

Lol I read one of the books as a kid and wish I’d heeded the warning because it’s just unironically depressing and shitty

Low intensity prolonged civil unrest is probably worse for a Government than a full blown riot lasting just a few days tbh

I’m happy that I was probably wrong when I said the yellow vests would fizzle out after a few weeks. The whole thing is a vote of no confidence into the Republic

China's social credit, USSR's sluggish schizophrenia, wow we really are the great cultural melting pot!
