  • Lets nuke the shit out of the shitty parts but keep the decorated live tree, pretty lights, egg nog, giving poor people and or family members things they cant normally afford and radicalizing our younger family members to be anarchistic leftists over ham or turkey or Chinese food while your older relatives try to push them as far right as possible and complain about everything that comes out of your mouth. You know the good parts of Christmas.



  • Im not giving any money. Its winter and propane is $20 a refill lasting 3 days. Maybe ill send a christmas card I have some stamps lying around.

    But the outpouring of support including people wanting to put money on mangione’s commissary is most likely due to the fact that many people have been thinking this for a while and if mangione is indeed responsible what he did was he said the quiet part out loud. And now the billionaires and their executive corporate pets are scrambling on pr and damage control to scold the rest of us for our irreverent response welcoming revolution and class war.




  • Well if hes as smart as he should be he would have figured out how to use pgp end to end encryption. If he did in fact have evidence on him he probably wanted to be caught and take responsibility for what he did. But no use supplying them with more evidence than they need. And also j think they are posturing with what evidence they say they have. The barrel of tje gun was a glock and glocks have polygonal rifling in the barrell which is impossible to get any reliable ballistics evidence from.

    Itll be interesting to watch this case unfold and see where it goes if the general public will even be allowed to spectate given the terrorism enhancement


  • A better judicial system, one where it implicitly illegal for those with money to receive preferential treatment. And one where victimless crimes built on abstract ideals of abstinence only moralism dont ruin the lives of marginalized people while wealthy privileged individuals engage in these same behaviors with impunity, and one where qualified immunity isn’t grossly abused to avoid consequence for a militarized police force and portray a fantasy image tjat police generally always have a pristine moral compass and aren’t just flawed human beings with a propensity to abuse their power in a system with so many unjust laws that are designed to favor those with privilege and wealth.

    How about just that for starters and i will get back to you for any further improvements.



  • Charaty is disingenuous. it attempts to burden the working class by paying some of what little they have to alleviate the societal problems caused by wealth inequity and a system that putts profits for a few over the lives and well beings of those actually doing the work and their loved ones. If we had medicare for all then this poor beautiful child would well be taken care of. And All the money thats otherwise used to pad the pockets of people who spend more on a weekend vacation than you or i could earn in a dozen consecutive lifetimes could be spent on research and medical care thats often denied to bolster profits. Go guilt trip the insurance companies who are responsible for the deaths of 180 human beings on aberage every day due to claim denials. How many of them are children?




  • Lmao. Donating to organizations and charity is a waste of money. They are just grifts that take a majority of those donations to enrich their executives and maybe 5-15% actually goes to the cause you support.

    Im too poor to give either money but i would rather see it go to someone who brought awareness to the issue and inspired more class consciousness and solidarity than the wall street military industry profiteer owned democrat party ever has.

    Sometimes luxuries are the best thing for the downtrodden to borrow because they can be bartered for money in the real world and sometimes having a little scratch in your pocket can make you feel human. My fiance and i pretty much survived on less than $6000 in total this year but having a little paper in my pocket makes me feel like a person. That being said the more expensive items a store carries the harder it is to borrow from them.

    There is an article i read where someone who claims to know him well and went with him to vietnam said that he told them he had $6,000,000 from his family but that his family relationship was a sore spot/contentious.

    Either way the will says he wont receive a trust if he is convicted of a violent crime so he abandoned his wealth to make a stand if he is indeed the one who made the claim adjustment for brian thompson.

    He volunteered at his families nursing homes when he was growing up. So its likely the fact that his family was enriching themselves through insurance providers and providing sub adequate care to seniors that made him contemptuous of his family’s fortune. Tiffany cianci on youtube did a deep dive on his family’s business(es) before anyone else had any deets.


  • You’re not wrong. Americans and their political beliefs are mostly colored by the propaganda they consume and believe is unbiased. But unbiased reporting went out the window when reagan vetoed the fairness in media law in 1987 and bush sr vetoed the second attempt to codify this law. Since then the american media machine is nothing more than spiffy polished millionaires with acting experience being payed handsomely to lie yo the rest of us by a small group of wall street military and prison industry profiteering billionaires. So i take everything the news puts out with a massive grain of salt.


  • The rat that ratted him out was likely also fabricated since his mother called police days before the arrest saying that the picture looked like him and thid seems like something he would do.

    I read someone who described a digital police tool called mark-23 which allows police to access the microphone and camera of mobile phones even when they are off and the battery removed and also provide location data in real time accurate to within a few feet. That and mcdonalds self ordering kiosks have AI and Facial recognition built in so it’s extremely likely they made up nancy parker to not further anger the proletariat. Just a hunch though.
