Verdict: PET ME HOOMAN 😿

Yay.

India gets to experience their own version of the “Great Firewall”

Isn’t the future just great? Every country gets their own “intranet” 🙃

/s obviously

I mean… you do know someone can just take a screenshot, right?

And even if you use the Android thing that blocks screenshots, they can still take a photo with another phone.

You need to trust the other person for there to be any “privacy”.

Okay serious answer:

For me, that is:

• Post question
• Quickly realize my question is actually stupid
• Delete it to avoid embarassment

Lack of prosecution of the pedo clergy

You misunderstand.

I’m talking about: If you start legalizing vigilantism like Luigi Mangione, you also embolden far-right terrorism.

Luigi Mangione should get accquitted as an exception, but shouldn’t be the norm.

The norm should be predatory health insurance CEOs all going to prison.

As for the sex abuse in regligion, that’s separate from the issue I was taking about earlier, which is the juidicial courts system being overload; what you are taking about is the prosecutorial misconduct/corruption of the procecutor (and the police) being involved in the cover up of a major scandal.

That’s the problem, the courts are stacked with like thousands of cases. The problem is not “Why did we arrest Luigi Mangione?”, that’s not the problem, the problem is: “Why the fuck is the courts so slow?”

We need like more judges to process all the cases quickly. Like maybe need to double the number of judges, and perhaps have petit juries that rule on serveral similar cases at ones, since juries take forever to convene.

A lot of Catholic clergy out there that needs to be dealt with.

Maybe, but I don’t think there should be a “You can kill whoever as long as its a bad person” broad exception. Its should be a case-by-case basis. If you pass a law that makes that okay, sure, you can get more Luigis, but I’m sure the number of Trans people and PoC being lynched also goes up.

It’s a double edge sword.

I mean that’s what jail is for.

Think about it this way. If a young adult (like 18 year old) kills a parent as revenge for getting abused as a kid, do you think this person would just get to move freely before trial?

Sure, I’d also sympathize with this young adult, and the parent deserve to die for being an abusive piece of shit, but that doesn’t mean this person can just go wandering around the city.

I remember reading an old news article where a man from China stayed awake for 11 days to watch football and he died.

I don’t know how the guy in China deliberately went 11 days without any sleep at all to watch a football game.

After reading the comments, I’m also wondering how he stayed up for so long.

I speculating it could be some sort of drugs keeping him up.

China is a society that, like many Asian countries, have a very negative view of drugs due to British colonialism, so its possible that there was drug use involved and it was covered up to avoid losing “face” to the family.

Will there even be a specter of fair and free elections for POTUS in the future? (Doubtful)

There will be free elections, eventually.

After a bloody conflict on the streets, that is.

Traitors have stolen the country and the US is in need of a second American Revolution.

Kamala Harris’s husband was “Second Gentleman”, so I’ll assume yes.

Today? No, probably not in the near future.

Maybe in the 2040s we’ll see a gay/lesbian person become US president, but not 2028.

Remember, there was a long gap betweeen 1965 Civil Right Act and Barack Obama becoming president.

And Remember, the Obergefell ruling and Respect for Marriage Act are still very recent (2015 and 2022, respectively), and might even get overturned, which indicates that the country is still not ready to accept gay/lesbian people, especially into positions of power.

Just look at the recent “DEI” outcry.

Jurors would weight in feelings over facts.

Which means, yes, Mangione gets acquitted.

But also possibly acquitals the when a cop murders someone, or when a group of white men chases down an unarmed black man and shoots him.

Possibly even some mass shooters, if they were white, because they’d be viewed as a “troubled youth” rather than a cold hearted killer.

Nullification goes both ways.

And if the accused is someone the jurors don’t like, its possible, with the idea of nullification in mind, they’d be more willing to just overlook the facts and convict based on “gut feeling”.

Because, what adding nullification to the jury instructions is doing, is that you are instructing the jurors to become not just the finder of facts but also the finder of law.

Off topic, but: Did you use voice to text on this comment? 😅

Read my other comment. It leads back to the same thing.

Okay, so I attempted to access it again. Its currently in a weird state of partial access.

I can “log in” but as soon as I try to access anything, say, Gmail, I get that screen again.

This is what the settings page looks like:

So its not totally locked out, but its not functional either, I’m not even on a VPN.

Notice, 2FA is off.

Then I click Gmail and get this:

I tap “more ways to verify” and get this:

I tap the only option, and it circles back to the previous screen.

🤷‍♂️

MFA was never enabled.

Bruh, I was testing some android features and wiped an android phone, then when I tried to log in again, they wanted a verification code from the previous device, the one I just wiped. Not even will a phone number satisfy them.

Its essentially locked out, unless I get a time machine to undo wiping the phone.

I mean, what happens if someone lose their phone and wants to log in to google to wipe their device? Like… how would you obtain the verification code on a phone a thief now has?

Its just even just privacy issues, Google is braindead when it come to their “security”.

Luckily, I wiped it in settings so FRP was off.

The answer is: We’re fucked.

People were warned of mass surveillance, and here we are, cameras everywhere, over the entire world. Everything is tracked. Same thing will happen to paper money and coins.

beggers,homeless ppl, panhandlers… are all doomed

In China, they have Wechat Wallet that people can give money to homeless people. Even homeless people have phones.

cashless societies are nothing but a nasty techbro dream.

It is nasty and dystopian, I agree. But its not really a fantasy anymore, its real, the dystopian future is on the horizon. Soon, it’d be too late to stop the dystopia.

At first, mass surveillance cameras is only in China, but then even supposed “democracies” like the UK have millions of cameras. Then China became mostly cashless, that will also eventually happen to western countries.

The dystopia is coming. You can’t stop it.
