@violetblue I forwarded the "Network State Coup is Happening Right Now" to my sister, who is very politically savvy, and she was like "What's a Network State?"
@jef @violetblue As anyone not Terminally Online would rationally say.
@jef @violetblue How did you answer? Because I'm not sure I could.
@jwz @violetblue I didn't get around to explaining. We've have had previous convos about the TESCREALs so maybe I could have said they are adjacent to that? Or referenced the nutters who want to build a de novo city in Solano County marshland? Or talked about the "bust out" episode of The Sopranos?
@violetblue@mastodon.social Holy Complicit Media, Batman, that headline.
We're well aware of what he's doing, thanks.
@violetblue Idiot Elon musk doesn't even know what the fuck is he doing in his own life and now he is in charge of all Americans. Good luck guys, you're all so fucked.
@violetblue he destroys "equality of treatment by clear, documented and approved administrative processes" and replace it with FUD. He is implementing the same management principles as the ones of hitler's hierarchy. Each level will be prideless musk servant with no honor that will execute all his wishes, expressed or not, just to stay in the place. He will use blockchains, face recognition and spyware/edr and AI provided by gafams to trace each action of his slaves, identify abnormal behavior and identify possible sabotage of his plans. Quite clear what is happening in fact: a putsch against any rule that prevents billionaire to racket and extract any drop of value from people, nature and "business partners" by abusing systematically their position of power and they will call it a mission from god and people that elected these buffons. Then, they will not resign, invoking their mission of god and voters, even when their time is " off" and will create a network of like-minded politicians and businessmen around the world, in Europe they already did and do support financially and pushing in media fascist political parties. A kind of "international fascist alliance".
@violetblue Ketamine is one hell of a drug. 
@violetblue I’m filled with rage. I was told Biden didn’t even have the power to fire a guy from the post office who destroyed federal property and violated court orders and has consistently made the post office worse every day that he has been in his job.
I’m just real confused about how Biden didn’t have the power to fire someone from the post office who technically committed crimes on the job, but Trump could form a whole entire space force that we kept even though I don’t think they do anything, and he can install Elon Musk to do all this.
But Biden was powerless of fire a scumbag from the post office? Really? And we just say OK and go make more money for our bosses ?? (And I think I’m ranting at a Canadian 
I hope you know I’m just ranting with you and not at you 
)
@maggiejk I agree with all of this SO MUCH. I've been feeling the same way the entire time Biden was in office. I'm glad to read what you wrote here, it really validates how I feel. (I'm not Canadian, I'm American, but I'm living and working in Aotearoa New Zealand for the foreseeable.... hopefully.)
@violetblue They'd better find out PDQ and stop him!
