    Maybe I’m feeling cornered, vulnerable, angry, as is often the case with these things. But how do you suggest we protect ourselves and our allies from an evil that strengthens itself off of your sickness, your hunger, your homelessness, and has absolutely no qualms about meeting you with violence and coming up with an excuse later?

      I would not suggest purchasing a gun if you are feeling cornered, vulnerable, and angry. Fear is the mind killer.

      I would suggest reaching out to others, talking, getting political, and organizing.

          Why stop there, surely there is something worse. Perhaps a personal nuclear weapon. Nothing too big of course, but just big enough to let’s say make everyone regret having messed with you.

          Think what a civil society would develop if everyone had one of these. On a side note, I am taking investments on a hot new uranium mine prospect.

              What is the right time though. Would it be on a Friday for maximum shock or on a Monday so the news would have all week to discuss it.

              And who are these people who would sing the praises. Most of all what did Mar a Lago do to deserve this. Maybe they hovered their finger over the “button” looking menacingly at you.

              But yes, we all like noble deeds and to be known for centuries sounds great. Have you ever thought of opening up your own suicide bomber school.

                  Oof a big tech expo with Putin, Kim, and Poo bear. All of the mega billionaires all hanging with all the best of politicians. Is this the time?

                  I would much rather see all these people discredited and exposed for the liars and deceivers they are though.

                    Yeah but that’s never going to happen in a system they’ve bought and paid for. Also, they have been exposed. Trump is a rapist and a convicted felon, musk is a nazi ket-head edgelord. But the problem is that nobody with any power will ever hold them accountable.
