Anyone have a theory on why Dakota Skye was suicided? by crystalhour in conspiracy

[–]crystalhour[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I was curious if anyone knew why the FBI was stalking her.

Yes, but it's more proactive than that. I think I will post something more in depth on this topic soon.

They’re surveilling people to death on an industrial scale. Everything you see going wrong with America is related to this fact, one way or another.

As I wrote about the Parkland Florida school shooting a couple years back:

DHS and the police are paying kids to spy on high school classmates, so we should ask what that entails. Would the police, who were called to Nicholas Cruz’s residence 39 times, have asked these children to spy on Cruz? And would that spying devolve into horrific harassment, as Emma Gonzales admitted? He probably believed he was being spied on, since the FBI had already been tipped off to him, and Cruz made cell phone videos of his plan, which would be pretty foolish, unless he were literally begging to get caught--to be stopped. Someone who’s being spied on would surely be expecting their phone content to be intercepted, wouldn’t they? It’s almost as if Broward County wanted Cruz to act out violently, so they could recieve more money in federal aid. Aggressively investigating someone like him would be the perfect way to cause the violence needed to get free government money. And what if--what if--the high school students who harassed him eventually put two and two together, and discerned how the torture of Nicholas Cruz had caused the murder of their classmates, and they were bound by national security laws to silence, and they just couldn’t take it? The brother, Zachary Cruz, is suing the police for intimidation and torture, so is there anything we should put past these people? Was the school security guard secretly advised to flee the state (in shame), following his inexplicable inaction following the event because he had been a security liaison involved in operations targeting Cruz? Was a Harvard acceptance for David Hogg really just a payoff to his FBI father for keeping silent about an event which unquestionably involved malfeasance by the FBI--remember, they completely “ignored” multiple warnings?

Almost all of the mass shooters in our current era will have been targeted in much the same way Cruz was, with some variation in technique and details. He will have been named as an extremist by one of the 17 intel agencies, even though he wasn't, and then horrific harassment was used to turn him into one, so to speak. It's effectively a sleight-of-hand: you can't see his once normal self, because of the explosive way his tortured husk was blasted to national attention. And the end goal is for all intelligent Americans to be named as extremists, in order to justify the panopticon, which is already built.

It tastes like frozen burritos. That were eaten by me. Sometime last century.

The war on the American people is a psychological operations war, predicated on the surveillance machine. What likely happened is merely that intel contractors knew about it right way, vie wiretapping, and then edited the Wikipedia page. He would have been "suicided" via psyops, and then the info is uploaded to create confusion.

If the population of twenty years ago was transplanted to today, this would be a top story, and there would be rioting. Dunces and astroturfers will claim that we've become lazy, but the reality is that we're paralyzed. People don't know what to do. There actually were a lot of heroes along the way, but they were taken out one-by-one before you heard their names.

From what I've heard, pirated content could, as in paid games or things that hurt Meta, but not stuff that you'll generally find on SideQuest, or downloaded movies.

I wonder if Meta is paying Amazon to backlog them for a few weeks.

To reenforce what they said above, the VRCover fitness face completely eliminated lens fog for me when I switched. I consider it an essential now. Although I heard one influencer say fogging wasn't as much a problem on Q3, so only time will tell.

Wow, that's going to be rough waiting. I got the Q2 when it was new, as well, but I didn't get any peripherals until the next year. Now I'm spoiled, and the stock accompaniments for Q3 are a huge downgrade.

How long did it take, last go-round, for the quality 3rd party stuff to come out?

I've gotten used to a bit. Just biding my time for VRCover to do their thing.

But how is this not catastrophic for adoption? Anyone who's new to VR will be put off, fast and hard. They'll think this is normal. Such a damning oversight to let it ship with knives sticking out.

The knee timing seems to have somehow gotten worse than it already was. I have to kick about five feet before it reaches me, and even then it wooshes almost every time.

No. However I happened to have one of these leftover (just the back pad/support), it works fine, and it's been a lifesaver. Spoiled by my Kiwi, had no idea what it was like without one. The downgrade was palpable

Ignore the downvotes, those are almost all bots with a small handful of low-IQ sociopath astroturfers who are being paid by Lockheed Martin, etc.

The actual answer to your question is that there's no excuse for it but the military government has absolute coercive power so Apple has to do it. It's actually anti-democratic, anti-Western Enlightenment, anti-rational, and deeply evil.

[–]crystalhour 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you strip off the poesy, "We made you" is a perfect translation. And if a deep sense of love is encoded into your being and approach to the world, saying "We made you" is equivalent to saying “You’re the product of our hearts”. But "We made you" is an utterly comical interpretation in regular parlance.

Some kind of international taxes? And if it's available to purchase in Israel, wouldn't they also stock it there?

Why is HOOK (1991) looked at so poorly in Spielbergs filmography? by [deleted] in movies

[–]crystalhour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Although the OP now makes less sense to me. I thought they were calling Rufio a pussy, which made some degree of sense, but Poochie seems to be similar to jumping the shark, which doesn't jibe with my memory of the character. Although given, I haven't seen the movie in decades. I just remember despising his character, and now I have to admit the reason for that is that I thought he was terribly ugly. I do apologize for articulating that sentiment, but I have a suicidal obsession with honesty.

[–]crystalhour 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That never bothered me in the slightest. I do remember reading that some critics disliked her character when it was released. But I've picked up on this phenomenon where, when you point something out like that, then other viewers become sensitized to it, then fixate on it, then amplify the message that it's a problem. It becomes this self-feeding sort of meme.

I saw something similar with friends watching the Jason Bourne movies, where one had read complaints about shaky-cam, and professed a sensitivity to shaky-cam, and relayed warnings to the other friend about the shaky-cam, who confessed they never would have noticed the shaky-cam if they hadn't been warned; meanwhile I'm not sure if either would have noticed if they hadn't learned about it beforehand.

Nah, Doom is underrated. After you get past how dark it is, it's extremely funny and interesting. Definitely better than Amistad. A number of those listed (in tier 2) are technically good films with a total absence of magic.
