Your reminder that the elites who own America are constantly astroturfing in order to keep workers divided and yelling at each other on social media over their favorite flavors of propaganda. It's the only thing that prevents citizens from revolting against the system through city-wide strikes, workplace occupations etc.
On Sunday, Al Jazeera reported that this past Tuesday's "Pro Israel Rally" in DC was part of a propaganda campaign sponsored by Starwood Property Trust billionaire Barry Sternlicht.
The goal of the campaign is obviously not to "defend Israel" (including the many thousands of Israelis who've condemned the genocide), it's an artificial showing of "support" for the genocide so guys like him can grab the land.
Naturally, Sternlicht paid people to attend the rally so as to "manufacture consensus."
the neofeudalist system under which we live is supported by malicious laws.
For over 200 years, the elites - knowing that most people either can't or won't read things - have tweaked our laws to the point where everything is stacked in favor of the interests of corporations, finance capitalists, rentier-class land-owners etc.
At this point it's an unbreakable blockchain of unfair laws that literally can't be fixed, and has led to many many thousands of stories like this.
The other day I found out by accident why Kiss lead guitarist Ace Frehley's guitar sound has always been so awesome. He doesn't just pick the strings, he also gives them a swipe with his thumb. That maneuver doubles the impact and seriously fattens the sound.
But take heart, all you guitarists who couldn't write a cool guitar solo to save your mother, this is what Ace looks like now, even after plastic surgery, hair plugs, etc., that's right, he looks like a Hells Angel Beanie Baby.
Oh hi!
You want to know why Amazon sellers hate Jeff Bezos's guts? Sure, let's talk about that.
I keep forgetting to raise my prices on the free promo CDs I get, and once in a while I lose money (pic of last night's "sale").
The Italians made him stop it. They should do it here in the us. He's a usurious, union-busting, psychotic pig.
I dunno, we're in a tough place these days, like we should nationalize healthcare and the rail system and whatnot, but if we did, how could we make it up to the 1% who profit from making everyone else completely miserable, like, have you ever stopped to think about that?
I think the rest of the world sees America as a Mad Max hellscape, and we haven't even had our total collapse yet.

The covid lab leak theory gets people really angry, mostly because it's culture war nonsense, like you're attacking science itself if you say "Sure, it's possible."
Seems kind of stupid for non-virologists to read one article and go online and yell "No way was it a lab accident! What are you, a Trump voter?!"
I can admit it's possible it was a mutation. So what? Half the shit you read online is a psyop to begin with. Shouldn't labs always be improving their safety standards anyway? Jfc.
Every year I put aside time during the holidays to read the ghost stories of MR. James (1862-1936).
He's known as the founder of the ‘antiquarian ghost story’ for centering them around very old objects that "harbour weird and unsettling associations for us."
He began writing the stories for a close circle of friends and colleagues at the University of Cambridge. He would read them aloud every Christmas Eve.
The stories are kind of Lovecraftian, but without a surrounding mythos (a la Cthulhu).
