毋忘六四

消滅中共,解放中國

一孩政策是人權侵犯

民族主義是一種病毒,全球都一樣。

消滅習近平 消滅普丁和他的走狗

Never Forget June 4th 1989.

Destroy the CCP, Liberate China.

The One Child Policy are human rights violations.

Nationalism is a disease, in every country.

Depose Xi Jinping. Depose Putin and his puppets. By any means necessary!

  • FYI, you can just ignore any “No Pets” rule once you moved in, especially with individual landlords, if you already have a cat, just lie. They don’t have the leverage to do anything such as trying to evict becuase it would lead to a lot of money lost because the time being empty in between tenants which mean they won’t be making any profits. So most would just not enforce the rule since its much easier. Especially in blue jurisdictions where eviction is much more difficult, tenants have much more leverage. Landlords aren’t gonna evict unless you damage the house, or stop paying rent.

    I know this because I have an aunt that owns a few properties and I heard about how they conduct their “bussiness”.




  • Everyone have different roles. The truck drivers who transported ammunition during the fight against nazis is just as important as the soldiers on the front line.

    As I said in my other comment, this era has one of the best tools. Cameras. Record protests and share videos so there is evidence of popular resentment against the regime, and also proves any acts of police brutality. Information can sway the “court of public opinion”. Use social media to counter corporate propaganda.








  • Fairphone works in Europe, but in the US, for example, only Tmobile allows fairphones, the other carriers, while there nothing technological that prevents them fron working, the carriers being being really shit about it. And Tmovile could also become hostile with a flip of a switch. So yea, that’s a huge issue, unless you want a wifi-only device.

    I fear in the future, devices will be more strictly locked down because of “terrorism” “scams” “fraud” or “criminial activity” that allows the authorities, worldwide, to control devices even more. Perhaps, computers could also face such lockdowns.

    I mean, look at drones. One harmless crash on the US whitehouse lawn triggered a lot of laws restricting them, inclusing the infamous DJI Geo-locking. One terrorisr using encrypted messaging apps to coordinate would allow governments to control our communications even further. All locked bootloaders. Perhaps even locked BIOS/UEFIs. Imagine such a future.

    The future looks bleak. It’s not even like 1984, the reality of dystopia is more subtle. People are being stalked by the government, while there are parties are happening all around, that is what dystopia looks like.

    China turned QR codes red to restrict people’s movements on the pretenses of Covid. The US trump admin could do the same with QR code IDs to “prove you are a citizen” with checkpoints throughout the country.

    (Sorry if it kinda got offtopic, but still kinda relevent)


  • Okay, I think you spend too much time on the internet.

    General rule of thumb to gauge reality is:

    People IRL are underreacting

    People online are overreacting

    While yes, fascism is a serious threat. The fact that a journalist could still expose the Signalgate proves that not all freedoms are gone, not yet. There are still a lot prominent critics, they have not yet been silenced.

    The administration is fighting a lot of court battles, and each one delegitimizes their actions. Without the legitimacy, they can face a lot of protests, which in turn fracture the military. Even if fascists try to use the military to, say, impose martial law to suspend elections. That would be too obvious and there would be infighting in the military.

    There are election observers in every polling station, an overt tampering with votes would spark riots.

    I would say the US is in a 6/10 serious threat of democracy failing. People IRL see it like 2/10 threat, while the internet see it as a 11/10 as if the fascists have already won. They have not won yet, the battle is still ongoing. Unless you hear the democratic state officials giving in, its not over.

    In 2026 and 2028 elections, we will see if democracy actually falls.
