Musk Telling People To Vote Republican

I don't think it should be any surprise that he can't help himself but run his mouth on his newly acquired play thing. He is, after all, Trump-lite when it comes to social media posting. That said, Zuckerberg threw hundreds of millions of Zuckbucks at the 2020 election in dubious (and pro Democrat) ways and Bezos is in bed with the CIA, so comparitively I would take the social media magnate that wears his opinions on his sleeve in his own words instead of shilling for those very people evidently coordinating fascistic censorship on said platforms for strictly Democrat gain in the shadows. Either way, can we please pump the brakes on the Technocracy creep? Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/) secure email.

[ot][spam][crazy] crazy confused ramblings inspired by douglas's blog

https://douglaslucas.com/blog/category/locations/belarus/ > silly word golzar from “goals are.” In the middle of the night, we’d point at the red lights of > faraway radio towers—Golzarian outposts, you see, from the strange species of Golzarians > who perhaps knew the answers to life’s mysteries—and try to drive to them in those days > before GPS on smartphones. what are goals? goals are a state of reality defined with precise fuzzy logic that mutates as new information develops. goals are defined by the act of pursuing them: a behavior that was common prior to the takeover of your country in past decades. nowadays, goals are mysterious things studied in elite towers, such that we might someday understand how it is possible to not meet them. - I have a lot of cognitive data confusion around goals that hopefully can be extensively diatribed. I and many other people have a unique mental health issue, where attempting to pursue a goal consciously ("willpower") can stimulate inhibition of it. This leads me to discovering consciousness around all sorts of parts of cognition like steps that lead to tasks, and various subtle feelings relating to planning around a goal or holding information that is useful for meeting it.

I enjoy sloppy and irrelevant generalities and unsubstantiated scuttlebutt as much as the next punk. One thing about Belarus and this list though - that has some criminal history attached. One-hit-wonder, REASON of all shithole corpse-media outlets exposed this! https://reason.com/2011/02/03/julian-assange-and-israel-sham/ Reposts not c-punks turned collaborator-journo's

The foul and vile stench of ' Natural Rights Anarchy "
by professor rat 07 Nov '22

07 Nov '22

>>> rights don't exist -- and definitely not as absolutes -- except insofar as the state and other political institutions "discover" them and then enforce them, depending on what is on offer in terms of policies for extending state rule. none of the ones usually promoted (women's, human, voting, free speech, self-determination, etc) are recognized as inherent in any human culture (which is why attempts to make one or more of them universal are always met with scorn and protest). the entire edifice of rights, duties, and obligations is based on hierarchy, domination, moralism, and enforcement. their invocation has no place in anarchist discourse -- except as examples of weak spots to attack the foundations of hierarchy and domination. . . .

oneunderscore__ · 2h Like I always say with content moderation, every social media site owner who is “pro free speech” meets their line eventually. For 4chan, it was anime child porn. For Facebook and YouTube, it was white nationalist terror. For Elon, it was people making fun of him. Quote Tweet Elon Musk @elonmusk · 2h Going forward, any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying “parody” will be permanently suspended Show this thread<<< This 4chan news would explain a lot about Juan Garofalo being on this list.

Mongo would scoff emptywheel @emptywheel · 27m ELMO is not a journalist ... and yet he's verified. Consider how nutty this tweet would appear if he said, "Widespread verification will democratize billionairing and empower the voice of the people."
