any country that invades mainland US is gonna be erased from reality. it's funny for a second until I remember how many millions of innocent deaths that would mean

It's probably less than 0.1% of the population that's capable of any type of original thought and I hate to say this but they seem to be spread evenly across all ideologies
no one – not one man – is calling them out. They’re patting each other on the back.
being surprised by this makes no sense, it's like expecting people at a Hitler convention to call each other out for liking Hitler
edit: if you expect anything but the worst from users of reddit, discord, and 4chan, you're insane.
Exhibit A, Your Honor.
Yeah you'd think, but when I worked in cybersecurity the thing that freaked me out the most is how often this just doesn't happen. It can happen immediately or it can take ages.
Another thing I think about sometimes is how games can be malicious too. The trend in PC gaming for a while now is "flavor of the month" where every couple months a huge breakout title comes out and everyone plays it for a few weeks.
The expectation from these games is that they run like shit despite being a fifth as graphically complex as a bigger budget game. What stops them from slipping a coin miner in for half a day at the peak of their popularity?
Schedule 1 for example. I love this game and I'm not accusing them of anything, just an example. Let's be honest. It runs at 100fps when it could run at 1000fps. Say the dev finally optimizes it, pushes the optimizations and a coin miner in a hotfix patch with no patch notes post on Steam. Six hours later the dev removes the coin miner and pushes that as a major patch with a patch notes release calling it the "optimization update" or something. We'd be none the wiser.
Don't take this as me saying not to support indie titles but it's a little weird that millions of people install untrusted closed source code from 1-3 devs all at the same time every couple months.
You don't actually think saying crazy shit like this to people is going to change anyone's mind about anything do you? If anything this kind of talk makes people more entrenched in their opinions. So you're just venting, which is understandable, but you're wrong to take it out on a stranger regardless of if you think a political disagreement makes them subhuman. You need therapy.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA what the actual fuck is wrong with you.
Why would you expect someone to put their life on the line for you when you spout off about them all being lunatics? They're at home with their family ready to protect their own home from tyranny as it comes to their own front door. They're not assembling an army to take care of you too. You hate them, so defend yourself if you want to.
Besides, my entire point is about how fucking stupid it is to be all like "I'm not hearing anything from those people I never talk to, curious isn't it?" I literally do not care in the slightest about a might-as-well-be-copypasted rant I've heard 10000 times from people who might as well be the exact same person as you.
Literally everyone I know who is in favor of 2A is against this. They're "being real quiet" because you don't interact with them and have no line of communication with them outside of Twitter trolls
You're the one completely missing here. This meme is ineffective because flip flops are manufactured everywhere and nobody screws them up. So what could have been a slam dunk here is more like OP slamming their forehead on the rim. Anyone who doesn't have their head up their ass or zero clue about how reality works see this and just thinks "nah that's fake" and they're correct in saying that media literacy is dead because this is getting way more genuine engagement than rock bottom low effort propaganda should get.
