"Merck, Phizer, Senophi, and GSK, over the past 10 years, have paid $35 billion in penalties and damages for defrauding regulators, for falsifying science, for lying to doctors, on all their other medical products. So it kind of requires a cognitive dissonance for us to believe that they're not doing the same thing for vaccines, the only product they have that they can never get caught in, because there are no private attorneys out there that can sue them." - RFK Jr

New "Twilight Zone" themes in order:
Success is from sacrifice not quality
When you intervene, you can become the problem
Bigoted policing is only stopped by cohesive community
Secrets make people easily manipulated
Mindless faith in presidents is misplaced
Simulation theory
Men's capacity for violence can only be used for evil, or denied
Home is where you make it, not where you come from
Animistic gun myth; a gun that can kill on its own
Incoherent self-conscious mess

Saved you a watch

How to control the world:
Create a problem.
Guide the reaction.
Implement your solution.

This is the Hegelian Dialectic, aka problem-reaction-solution.

So to pass gun control, authoritarians would facilitate sensational shootings, that would get a big public reaction. And then people would beg for a solution.

It is proven! I am joshuaseigler on Keybase: https://keybase.io/joshuaseigler/sigchain#1c7213624d4eb9eb060b0da97b81a786a39f8da1a626fd2ca701fd0192b28f340f

Suggestions for Team Autonomy: promote the core idea that the individual user knows best what they find desirable and unacceptable. Use admin/repo owner powers to actively enforce discussion standards. And build software that empowers users to implement their content preferences.

This leads to outcomes like the recent F-Droid ban of the Gab app, but this is just a taste. Team Control Knows What's Best for users, and anyone who doesn't share, support and implement their social standards is a Hate Sympathizer that deserves every negative externality Team Control has at its disposal. This is a new DEcentralized war on general purpose computing.

There is a cultural battle in open source happening over who is responsible for protecting users from hateful content: users themselves, or everyone with control. Team Control often uses bad-faith tactics like mass flagging, arguments from emotion, and introducing strawmen. Team Autonomy tends to be software developers, is unprepared to face at-any-cost attacks, and often acts defensively in these exchanges until finally caving.

Happy #Brexit1776! Today we celebrate our brief freedom from:
• punishing taxes
• a "living constitution" distorted to permit any government action
• invasive business regulation in all areas
• effectively unlimited power wielded by representives and heads of state

This is MKULTRA stuff, straight out of Springmeier's "The Illuminati Formula to Create an Undetectable Total Mind Control Slave"

Today is Frederic Bastiat's birthday. He is the author of many influential works regarding economics and society. If you haven't read it yet, here is his pamphlet "The Law", from which I pulled the quote in the previous toot.
http://bastiat.org/en/the_law.html

"As long as...the law may...violate property instead of protecting it...everyone will want to participate in making the law, either to protect himself against plunder or to use it for plunder. Political questions will always be prejudicial, dominant, and all-absorbing."
