    That’s why Geo group stock is surging. Since we can’t just genocide the opposition like Gaza we gotta incarcerate everyone instead. Hey what if we forced them to work while in the camps but told them ‘work will set you free’? Laughing all the way to the Caymen islands

    Oh gee shocker it looks like those of us who tried to sound the alarm during the Bush and Obama years that these laws and these surveillance systems could be and would be turned on us were right all along!

    It fucking sucks being right all the time. I can’t even get any enjoyment out of being able to say “I told you so” because most don’t even remember being told fifty fucking times.

    I think a lot about the day I argued with my coworkers that if we allowed Bush to give Hank Paulson a cool $700 billion to bail out the banks no strings attached that we were just kicking the can down the road and the economy for regular folks would suffer over time because we enabled bad behavior and taught banks that as long as they were too big to fail they would be bailed out by taxpayer money. I wonder if any of them even remember being told what obviously has come to pass as the lower classes have been increasingly hollowed out during the time since then.

    I just can’t even anymore living among all these fucking dimwits who aren’t even paying attention and just drifting through life like none of this even matters. I’m not smart enough for everyone else to be this fucking stupid.

      The problem is leftists are always right too early. A majority don’t see what we do until it’s too late, like it is right now

      I’ve been saying this for years, well shit decades now, as well. Something’s gonna give. Then everyone will act surprised when it does and wonder how it got there but really we all know.

        It’s always been a house of cards and now Republicans have the control to burn it all down. We’re only one year into the Great Republican Fire Sale and Republicans are not going to stop themselves.

      More than that fuck voters that backed Biden despite everything leftists were right about. Before he was elected we pointed out his mental decline was not a stutter. We pointed out he would continue pushing to keep the ACA, expand the police state, etc. And here we are.

        Eh, that was 100% foreseeable. Republicans always circle the wagons, and defend everything no matter how deranged or heinous.
