  • The UFO community has been wanting Trump to and suggesting Trump would do this for years. And at least on Reddit, they can’t stand anyone pointing out that it’s all just to garner attention and support from a fringe base. And to sow distrust in government institutions. (they won’t tell you the truth, but I will etc)

    I was banned for pointing this out because it was “off topic”.

    I hope this at least brings real proper reporting and debunking to the subject. Fringe online media, and conservative mainstream media already cover this just to placate their base. And they can’t call it bullshit, or offer balanced reporting on it because they will offend the people they are trying to rope in.

    And hey, if it turns out the US really does know stuff they have tried to keep from the public, that would be cool. But after following this during the pandemic era, like many people did, I came to the conclusion that most of it is rehashed bullshit and circular reporting and grifters telling stories for attention. It’s also clear that the topic is exploited for ulterior motives by governments. Someone elsewhere in this thread listed a few concrete examples. And this looks like this will be the largest such exploitation of the topic ever.

    Also, I love how the slug for this story is just “trump” with a long string of numbers. It really represents the news cycles of our time.

















  • Don’t be shy, throw it on the pile of world changing predictions for 2027:

    • China invades Taiwan
    • Alien disclosure happens
    • Trump ends democracy
    • The singularity occurs
    • Solid state batteries enter the market
    • The year of Linux on the desktop

    These are all real predictions. Except for maybe the Linux one. I’m not shit posting. And the list could go on, I’m just not remembering more of them right now.

    Edit: y’all are no fun. And to be clear, I was NOT refuting the person I replied to. I am merely pointing out that we have a bumpy road ahead.



  • What the hell? Democrats and Republicans are neoliberals. They both participate in neoliberalism as it has been since, like, the 1970s/1980s. When everything started being dismantled.

    Neoliberalism is an economic and political theory advocating for free-market capitalism with minimal government intervention, emphasizing privatization, deregulation, and free trade.

    So, NAFTA, deregulating all sorts of industries, a lack of regulation on the tech industry, dismantling or not supporting unions, etc.

    This tariff stuff does not change anything, imo.

    Are you guys all neoliberalism supporters or something?

    Neoliberalism is maintained with the two party system we have. And the two sides participate in the ratchet effect.

    This is why both sides are going crazy over Zohran.

    It feels like you are just using labels a bit wrong. I’m not arguing against your point, just your choice of labels. All these downvotes without proper explanation to help me understand is really lame.
