The post does mention not tolerating intolerance which covers fascism, racism, etc.

Yup, same bullshit they tried to use to justify forcing it on HD2 after release.

I’m not saying apple will do anything about it, just that they will let the cops know what is causing the reboots if asked.

The police could just ask Apple, it isn’t like they are going to have some secret reboot process that they would hide from the police.

Can’t those both be true at the same time?

Yes, but actually no.

If a system exists to serve a purpose but does something else it is broken. People may consider completely changing the system into something new to be fixing it, but those who think it needs to be destroyed don’t want the chance of problematic parts of the existing system to be carried over or may even think it doesn’t need to exist in the first place.

Let’s take the FBI. It fucking sucks for minorities because it has always been a shitty, racist, and bigoted organization. Sure, it occasionally enforces civil rights and handles federal crimes, but it is absolutely rotten to the core. Some people might think that firing everyone but keeping the structure could fix it by replacing the horrible people, but it is likely any reform will retain some level of shittyness because continuing to exist means the underlying structure and culture is likely to hang around because it is the same literal agency. Others might want to destroy it by eliminating it by name and replacing it with a new agency that enforces federal laws or maybe they don’t want it at all and want other agencies to handle enforcement on their own. The latter will most likely result in some of the old shitty FBI staff to be hired into either of those outcomes due to having experience, but the idea is that destroying is significant enough that there is a chance that the next time around we might avoid the same mistakes.

A more relatable example might be an old bike. Is it worth trying to repair when the underlying structure is worn out or is a replacement that achieves the same things more likely to have a better outcome. Or maybe you don’t even need a bike because you moved somewhere you can easily walk everywhere and you have other options for exercise.

The mainstream media will report that Trump said prices are lower, and not actually point out that he is a lying liar.

The best part is that Trump will not bring down the price of groceries.

Plus the orange jackass is going to fuck over the economy with massive tariffs and then give tax breaks to the 1% while removing the worker protections and social services the working class relies on.

They took all the parts people complained about in the beta and dialed them up. Especially the predatory monetization.

The messaging needs to be simple and address their stupid concerns, not cater to their stupid solutions. Campaigning on improving the immigration process to handle the influx instead of mass deportations can be kept simple and successful without being terrible and stupid.

He said Project 2025 was great back in 2022 before the backlash, it isn’t like he is consistent.

Same justification he will use for a nationwide abortion ban and locking up his political opponents.

That is the politicians. The voting base hasn’t changed.

The ones that learned nothing from his first term won’t be learning anything from his second.

Still bad, but I feel for people in states with less protections for LGBTQ and immigrants, and especially for people in countries that are completely fucked right now unless something crazy happens.

Your state just voted to keep slavery btw.

Something, something won’t get fooled again?

The answer is that doing the same dogshit reach across the isle campaigning while supporting shitty US allies like Israel is a losing strategy.

They won’t learn though.

Justice delayed is justice denied.

Due to how numbers work, the best outcome would come fro. Socialist and green party members joining the Dems and shifting the party left. They will never pull enough people from the Dems to compete with Republicans, but they can focus efforts on getting the competing party to improve.

I would prefer the judge actually sentenced him to jail even uf it gets ignored, but I expect that to play a part in them taking it down to a slap on the wrist.
