Why would private companies encrypt your chats

This has been happening since the 20th century and nothing has changed regarding feds’ powers as a consequence. The only thing we get is more cops in schools, but that’s not really relevant here. And even then, having a cop or two in school is a pretty poor event to policy ratio in the span of like 120+ years. Even in conservative states, literally all they do is propose more guns in school. They don’t care enough to propose more powers for cops, just more vague funding and power that they were already going to receive regardless.

The thing is that Americans are already demanding more police powers and funding them and this still happens. The FBI gets powers no matter what anyone says because unlike cops, they don’t need the extra responsibility of putting on a show for the community; they just do whatever they want. But nobody in the government cares about school shootings, not even using it as a trojan horse.

It seems like a nihilistic, end of history version of a strategy of tension where the government encourages and/or allows and/or fails to stop stochastic terrorism, but ultimately no one cares about any of events to even take advantage. White children were massacred by a neurodivergent gunman during Obama, and… nothing happened afterwards. No heavy handed gun laws, no extra policing or surveillance that wasn’t already planned beforehand. This modern strategy of tension doesn’t produce fear and compliance, it just produces apathy.

Why would they care when the government is just a capitalist sibling rivalry rather than being in an existential war between opposite ideologies like the Years of Lead?

The Biden administration's Medicare drug price negotiations promised savings for Americans

I always find it bizarre that whenever I attend family parties or events, everyone is obsessed with photos but no one owns a tripod.

No worries. The college semester ends in about 3 months so they should get a new batch of major generals soon

Don’t understand why you would want to give up profits just because the customer is on a bike lol

 
 

I just increase my profits in Booba Bucks by $0.000238471. Have fun being poor

 
 
 

70% of the journalists become infected and Biden insists it’s fake news

 
 
 
 
 

Secret Service sources familiar with the failed assassination believe the small caliber, long distance, and shooter’s debilitating health contributed to the missed shots
