I made my switch around the inauguration. When I saw all the big tech guys standing together. That's a big red flag. Even if reddit wasn't represented.

Yeah it's kinda crazy that it basically just lived on in the hearts of Putin and his underlings. We moved on. He made it his mission. There's a lesson in there somewhere.
Also, he basically became the thing he hated to win. Killed us with capitalism. There's a story there.
So, I consume their media so you don't have to. The short answer here is that from the moment it came out they've called it fake. Now they actually say that the government itself found the report to be fake. So, yeah they won't listen. Even if tomorrow a full report with names and links and bank accounts came out. Everything you could want...they would think it's fake and as soon as THEIR media starts confirming that they'll forget about it.
Why is our main advocate still ancient? Is there no one younger willing to take this fight?
We live in a budding techno-fascist police state. Your argument depends on anonymity. That is almost completely lost on the modern America. Hong Kong is one if many examples over the last 15 years. They'll find you. They'll disappear you. Sure. Buy yourself a gun and load up on ammo. It will do you lots of good when they break your door down if you actually prove to be a credible threat.
Ah yeah, my semi automatic hunting rifle is really going to stop the armored military and the drones, and the mass data collection. Me and 1000 other people sure will make a difference right up until they shut off the internet and mow us down.
I will always remember the theater of that night in the primaries 2020, when Biden entered the race and everyone around Bernie dropped. Biden, riding Obama's name to grab the majority. It felt like I was watching them stab Caesar. Bearnie had the majority. He would have won that election. My faith in politics died that night as I watch a political maneuver that I had only ever seen play out in film happen in real life. That's when I really knew we were doomed.
Great, I'm about to get audited by the billionaire that probably doesn't pay taxes. Lovely.
They don't care. If there is no immediate and severe punishment for it then it doesn't matter if we 'know.' In 10 years the only line will be the official one and we'll just look like conspiracy theorists with half remembered facts. They dont think you're stupid, they know they'll get aways with it and they don't think about you at all.
No. It doesn't.
