  • You mean those laughable robots unworthy of the name that are 20 years behind Boston dynamics and still require an operator to actually do anything at all?

    Yeah, that is going to happen just as much as the hyper loop is going to happen. And the missions to Mars. And the full self driving.

    Musk is full of shit, always has been. He’s a scammer who got incredibly lucky and from there on just floated up on his bullshit that Musk boys lapped up like honey.











  • Lol, good luck.

    As some other, older, group might explain to you, deportations are hard and frigging expensive. You’d need beyond massive deportation centers and soon enough you’ll need camps where you, I dunno, can concentrate people closer together, shall we say…

    Even so, you need to transport these people somewhere, costing thousands of dollars per person. Twenty million people it was? That’s 20-40 billion dollars. The camps themselves will go into the dozens of billions to build and maintain, adding all those prison camp guards, and removing roughly 5-10% of your workforce alone will wreck your economy.

    If Trump deports as many people as he promised he would, it will wreck the US beyond recovery.

    That leads me neatly into the next point: resistance. If you think you can deport 20 million people without anyone lifting a finger then you should read up on history. Also, now we have social media. It will be minutes until the internet overflows with horrible videos of innocent people getting brutalized or killed. That will totally not end up with mass protests throughout the country.

    As soon as any of this starts it will become a shitshow like nobody has seen before, to use one of Trump’s favorite phrases.

    What more likely will happen in that a few tens of thousands people will be deported and that’s it. Of course those deported likely won’t be illegals, but who cares, they got Spanish sounding names, that’s all they need. Republicans will start seeing the real cost of quickly abandon this stupidity and just act like mission accomplished!

    Fuck it’s hard to not be cynical, but if Trump / right wing Jesus lovers do what they want, they’ll run the country off a cliff it will never be able to recover from. Not that I care at this point, let it burn. You will get what you voted for



  • Actually…

    I think that of democracy will ever return to the US, current news outlets in the US should all go on the cutting block

    Fuck the 24 hour news cycle where “journalists” all hunt around like creeps to get that latest story because we gotta broadcast something in those 24 hours… Let’s broadcast any and all crime, making people feel unsafe. That’ll get us more clicks!

    News should be paid by an independent, neutral government organization that will finance actual journalism. The results from said journalism will be available on a number of sites, and maybe a Humber of TV channels at limited hours, like ut used to be in the past. News organizations should not and can not be owned by individuals, it WILL be abused. Laws must be enacted to require news to be truthful and anything even remotely pretending to be news should be limited by those laws. Mistakes can be made and when that happens, retractionsust be broadcasted or made available in websites with the same intensity as the mistake that was broadcasted

    The US needs news sources that they can trust in because say what you want about magas, they’re right in that the main stream media in the US is utter shit and cannot be trusted. It’s just that they are wrong about what sources are bad. They’re all bad, but their sources, fox news, oan, etc, are the worst by factors…
