if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

this is what they said it would be like under socialism

Republican America is a dystopian nightmare for many. They mock affordability as the billionaire oligarchs keeps amassing more illicit wealth and passing ever more taxes on to the already squeezed middle and working classes. This. Is. Not. Sustainable! 🤬

Hillary is so over it !!

NYPD doing the usual: an NYPD frame job.

Not people championing Rashida who told people to withhold votes for Kamala Harris….she literally voted for this and is now regretting it.

I'm gonna repeat my comment.

Talking about nonexistent "super intelligent" machines is like talking about the Cookie Monster rather than corporations creating real things causing harm. A non existent machine god bringing apocalypse or utopia is a framing that is harmful. Period.

The best way to prove you aren't a racist regime is by creating a safe space for people all over the world to spew racist bile. 🙄
