This is exactly the dumb shit take from y2k.

I Still hear people go on about how “it was supposed to be this big thing and then nothing happened! Smart people are so dumb!”

Yeah nothing happened because a lot of smart people worked very hard to fix the goddamn problem, you fucking shitwaffle.

Here? “You dum dums got so worked up thinking it would pass and then it didn’t, so the freak out was for nothing!” yeah it didn’t pass because a lot of Europeans got very upset about their governments trying to spy on them harder than ever.

I’m not European, so I can’t say how people talked about it openly on the metro with random strangers, but online? People were vocal and pissed. A PROPER government (lol can we have some of that functioning democracy please) listens to its people. This was them listening to the people.

The people’s reaction was appropriate, and necessary. And shouldn’t be lessened just because “lol you guys got so propaganda’d and it was obviously never gonna happen and I knew cause I’m so smart” is quite the take on things.

With every attack and infiltration, the rest of the world slowly dons more and more clown makeup.

But you know… It’s TOTALLY politics to not want your money going to people who want you dead, so RULE 3 GUYS RULE THREEEEEEEEEEEEE

reads manual

You’re only confused because I’m dumb! For some reason I was thinking toner and laser were separate types.

I bought a toner printer in 2020 and I’m still on the first replacement cart. I have over 2000 pages printed.

Considering I spent $80, plus $40 on the new two pack of toner, I consider it money well spent.

I do wish I had bought a laser printer though… There are things I would like to begin printing that will be several thousand pages after it’s all finished. Mostly reference materials. DISREGRD THIS I DUM

In the current world, we don’t care about what you should and shouldn’t do to protect yourself, but only about what appears to be proper

We can’t actually DO anything, because they haven’t officially declared an open war, and defending yourself against attacks just wouldn’t be proper

Now please go quietly protest away from anyone that considers it an inconvenience. It’s what’s proper, you know.

Note: I am from the US and when I say “we” I mean the collective peoples of earth, not to indicate I am from the UK.

edit: wow, Redditors are better at accepting the truth, lol

So go pander to them.

If I own something, I can do whatever I like with it because it’s mine.

If I can’t do what I like, it’s not truly mine.

Having worked in quite a few fields in the last 15 years or so, it’s the same active shooter training they give everyone. Even in stores that sell guns.

I’ll let the reader decide how fucked up it is that there’s basically a countrywide accepted “standard response”

you can only do that so many times before you run out of money, materials, water, or places to build

That’s someone else’s problem. Hopefully someone after they’re dead, but as long as they have their golden parachute, who cares?

That’s right up there with calling Epsteins victims “underage women” instead of CHILDREN

I’m so glad the people around me who live nowhere near a field voted to kill field-to-solar projects around here, the factories and warehouses that went up where there used to be lovely views of the hills are much better. All that extra pollution and noise really adds something special to the day.

But the economy has never been stronger!

Of course it’s held together by billionaires in bunkers trading stocks in companies that no longer exist, and they only have their food storage remaining until they all die, but hey… The economy!

Why not just tattoo a number on their arm?

I’m sure there’s no possibility that subdermal trackers would ever be used in shitty ways.

should be impeached

Impeached and then executed for treason.

Gotta start them while they’re young! Cuts back on down time for the meat grinder.

Well then by definition, it’s no longer secure.

Funny Spock

Oh god please no

Give me socially awkward, trying to be funny but not quite getting it yet Spock.

I have a permanent solution to banking crises:

Ban capitalism globally.

It’s foolproof. It will stop any more banks from having any sort of crisis.

Considering the channel owner is heavily left leaning, I don’t think it was them but they may be getting extra cautious about what speech they allow, given the current regime.

I made some comments on YouTube over the last week about LAPD and Israel, and all of them have been deleted without notice. Not even a warning of “hey you aren’t allowed to talk about that” or “you violated a mysterious rule sometime”
