And yet mysteriously they never go after agents ...

You need to view bloodbath-gate in the wider context. I repeat my previous assertion -- Trump is evil. Stop him now before it is too late. ‘Bloodbath’ aside, Trump’s violent rhetoric is unambiguous - The Washington Post (archive.ph) ‘Bloodbath’ aside, Trump’s violent rhetoric is unambiguous Trump has already warned of “riots,” “violence in the streets” and “death & destruction” if he’s wronged. All of that context is vital.

Saying people are "not people" is quite strange, but we've come to expect strange things from Trump. Of course all people are people. Even Trump. On the other hand all people are also all animals (mammals). Some people are so violent that calling them animals is not really so objectionable. But Trump is trying to demonize ALL migrants with his hateful rhetoric and that is not fair though it will serve to fire up his rabid base of cult followers.

High level of debate there, bubba. You're right about one thing -- the connection between Putin and Trump. Yes Putin "won" his self directed show (not an election). Americans still have a chance to stop their wannaba dictator Trump in the upcoming election. It's way too late for Russians to change anything that way.

Next we're going to hear that Israelis calling hummus Israeli food is genocide. Genocide inflation.

No. There wasn't an actual election. Enjoy your dictator.

There has be an actual election before that question makes any sense.

Putin didn't win. It wasn't an election. Putin put on a show.

Donald Trump. Adjudicated Rapist. Stochastic Terrorist. https://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/op-ed/ej-montini/2024/01/10/donald-trump-kari-lake-invent-stochastic-terrorism/72173861007/

Many Americans are as stupid as their reputation.

Well the Covid dead can't vote

They didn't. NOT voting in a sham "election" is a statement. Soon Putin will proclaim himself Czar and Vladimir the Great. The consensus in Russia is that a new mass mobilization will happen soon. Prepare to welcome many more non tourist Russians to Thailand.

That's OK. Trump isn't a people either. He's an unhinged psychopath.

Well Putin only got 10 percent of the Russians in Thailand vote! https://voteabroad.info/

Palestinians don't want two states either.

I don't think so.

Youtube has shorts now. I hate facebook but I join to see business ads.

Which brings me to the topic of youtubers begging for money. I'm amazed how many people give them money in many cases large amounts. Good for them, but that's not me. I gave one youtuber 20 dollars once because he was giving me information of real value to me at the time and he seemed genuinely poor. I would have given more but the guy's conspiracy theory politics were so disgusting to me that I decided against that. Just entertaining me is not enough to even consider giving. From my POV, there is an infinite supply of FREE entertainment, so I don't value it so much. There is currently one guy that I'm actually considering becoming a paying member both because I admire him greatly and also that he offers perks to members that do interest me. Constantine of Inside Russia.

Of course youtube is much more than made for youtube content. It's has regular tv shows, all kinds of movies, news shows, etc.

I watch whatever I'm interested in at the moment and I'm interested in an incredibly wide range of stuff. Not sports thank God, except for certain bulgy wrestling videos. Wink wink nod nod. Plus of course what the algorithm feeds me when it gets me, and over time, it gets me to a creepy level (how I got started with the wrestling).

So how do you describe being in a fascist cult of personality?

This could just as well be about screen time addiction in general. Though I make a distinction between watching stuff and social media where you add your own stuff. Youtube is a mix if you are a commenter on top of watching, which of course I am. As said, I am NOT looking for advice on how to cure this addiction. So one might ask, what's the point of this topic? Watching in the background now:

The UN can't force an apple out of a paper bag.

There is a choice. Fascism vs. democracy.

Sounds like you're talking about Russia.
