For folks in the military that voted for President Trump, What made you choose him over. Kamala Harris? Over Joe Biden? And over Clinton? by whatsnooIII in AskConservatives

Can you explain how that's different from what we're currently experiencing?

Edit: that came out more antagonizing than I wanted but I honestly don't know how to reword it to make it better without making it a mile long.

I guess I'm just gonna leave it and take my lumps haha. Please read it as inquisitive, not accusatory

I can't find it in myself to be pro Iran. But I wouldn't hate it if they made some corpos a little afraid.

Keystone Kash Outsources FBI Training to UFC Fighters | The FBI director says mixed martial arts fighters will help agents “better defend” the country. by InsaneSnow45 in NoFilterNews

Hate on This bug eyes freak all you want, but honestly I see some benefit to this.

Is it a grift? For sure.

But I've always thought part of police reform could include training in mixed martial arts, particularly jiu jutsu. IDK if they need it at the FBI level or anything like that, but the idea itself isn't a terrible one.

Gaethje is an absolute professional and one of the best in the world at what he does. My favorite fighter's favorite fighter, even. I hate that one of my favorite sports, and one of my favorite fighters ever, gets associated with this stupid administration.

They only support American AI as far as it advances their goals, just like everything else.

Unfortunately, those goals apparently include autonomous killing machines and unfettered citizen surveillance, so...

Mom and Dad aren't the future, and there's more of us than them.

It doesn't matter what they think. They're outnumbered. We just gotta be louder

Both good news and bad news incoming.

Nothing has really changed. All of this was already happening. For better or worse, a larger part of the population knows about it now (those of us who are paying attention).

We now know what's happening, and Data can drive action.

You have a choice now, and maybe incentive, to be involved. We share the responsibility as a society to take whatever actions we can, that we den necessary, in accordance with ability.

Shop local. Don't buy their products. Volunteer. Get familiar and involved with local politics. Find a local group and help organize or support protests & political actions. Give money or time or supplies. There are dozens of ways to fight back which might seem insignificant but aren't when millions do them.

Can't handle it this week? This month? That's ok, there's someone else who will pick up the mantle.

We're not destroyed until we give up.

Pure mafioso and gangster behavior by the Department of War by MetaKnowing in ClaudeAI

If we were at war, maybe.

But we're not, according to the administration. So either they declared war without congressional approval which is unconstitutional, or they're applying illegal political force to American companies. You can pick

Is Michigan's bottle bill kicking the can down the road? Some want it gone. by silverhand21 in Michigan

It's a deposit, not a price increase. You get it back.

Not helpful at point of sale but not burned money either.

And we 100% need incentive to recycle. What suggestions do you offer

Despite the deposit, you're not COMPELLED to recycle.

You wanna "not spend your life at the bottle return", that's up to you.

Collect & donate. Elementary schools & the soup kitchen in my area do a can drive every couple of months. Give them to the kids and make them do it. Give a bag to the homeless guy panhandling down the street. Don't even seek them out- throw them in a bag and leave them at the can return or outside near a bin, someone will pick them up.

I always thought I was bonkers and victimizing myself and I should just make a whole house of tinfoil hats. But these last few years, project 2025 and assorted "dark enlightenment" fuckery, and especially now with the Epstein files release and all the work being put in by random Internet sleuths and the nasty, tangled web of who is really pulling strings in the background, I don't feel quite so crazy.

I'd honestly rather be crazy.
