Yes, starlink giving poor communities in the Amazon access to the rest of the world is good.

Yes, starlink giving internet to rural people who have been duped, manipulated, lied to, and cheated about getting internet for decades is good.

Yea, starlink undercutting greedy, corrupt ISPs with a service they had deemed “technologically impossible” and “financially infeasible” is good.

Yes, innovation is good.

Yes, internet access is good.

I am sad that people with telescopes are slightly inconvenienced and have to add in dynamic filtering to correct for minor anomalies of satellites moving by every 10 minutes. It is so sad.

But hey, look on the bright side? For your minor inconvenience, millions more people are now connected. They can get help when something goes wrong. They can participate in the modern economy and get access to more food and medicine. They can share their culture and learn from other’s. Remote workers can be among them and bolster their lifestyles.

So at the cost of a small inconvenience that can easily be corrected, the lives of millions are improved. I could write all day to this tune but if you can’t see such an obvious thing, there is not much I can say to you. I can just hope any lurkers reading feel seen and heard, cause I am really tired reading the nonsense against such a powerful gift to humanity.

Fucked up the sky for all of us? Who is “all of us”? Most of “us” live in mega cities with so much light pollution it blots out the night sky. Everyone in these horrid concrete jungles has high speed internet and absolutely no connection to the stars. Many of these people have never even seen the stars.

The ones living outside of these cities are the minority, and now they have internet. An internet they have been promised to the tune of countless billions for a very long time. They see the stars every night. Starlink has not impacted their connection with the stars at all.

So I am genuinely curious. Who, exactly, is the “us” you refer to?

And why are you not rallying against the light pollution that has denied billions access to the stars for at least generations?

Chrono Trigger is the most legit RPG out there, no doubt.

OOT just hits different. Tugging some spirit strings.

Did you really just link me to NBC news?

How are so many people still plugged in to this nonsense?

Do people really still believe that space age nations with access to AI, nuclear, and semiconductor technologies should follows the dramas of individual human leaders?

Does this primitive practice really, actually appeal to people? Are you people actually real? You actually care about the sayings and doings of clearly theatrical and phony leaders?

There is no such thing as a leader of 300 million people, you understand this, right?

The dog and pony show of elections is a theater of puppets orchestrated by a global elite that owns the US government and most governments of the world.

Do you know how easy it is to capture the soul of a single meat and bones, weak human entity with a family and a physical time and place?

Do you know how easy it is to capture 10,000 souls? How many representatives and senators do you have again?

ALL of them are captured.

Most with money.

The more stubborn ones, with blackmail. Some of them are so principled and stubborn they would rather die than compromise their values. But those ones have sons, daughters, husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, and while they won’t compromise for their own lives, they do compromise for the lives of those they love.

You have no clue, do you, the reality of this world? You have no idea of the evil hidden in plain sight within the hearts of man?

Your “government” fell a very long time ago.

You realize that people can also go vote for Trump too, right? Do you understand that? Do you understand that “go vote” does not mean your man is the target?

Taking no action in a genocidal cult-for-a-government is better than taking action for what either side believes is the right side.

Back off of fascism for a second and respect people’s autonomy. None of us asked for be a part of this half-baked, misguided mechanism, but we have a choice to stop using it. You have no right to say otherwise.

A no-vote IS a vote.

Little girl,

You aren’t voting. Go stand in line to cast a paper ballot that you can’t verify is even counted for one of two hand-selected-by-the-elite, who don’t give two schlicks about you or your community, and keep pretending you’re “voting” for something.

Good for you for having a reasonable mind in defiance of the system and the countless, unfortunately brainwashed thralls that continue to support it.

A no-vote is a vote against a tyrannous and oppressive system. Every 4 years is a new “emergency, vote for the lesser of two evils!!!” And every 4 years, we descend more rapidly into authoritarianism.

Do not participate in this system created by slavers. Put your energy elsewhere. Can’t we do better today? Put your energy into better.

Attention is currency. Around the world, we need to stop giving these tyrants attention. Corporations have record profits yet the prices of food keep increasing, wages stay stagnant, mass layoffs are occurring, and the global temperature keeps increasing. They do not care, because they have hoarded all your attention and power, and they use it to make a nee world for them.

Their “governments” that they make you think are actually yours, serve that machine of their safety. You are in the meat grinder, and they consume the meat.

The grinder is perfectly balanced. Every vote for the side you think is benevolent gets balanced by a vote against it. You will NEVER have an impact on change within the system. The best thing any individual can do is STOP. Opt out of the system. Live closer to nature and form new, self-sufficient communities.

A no-vote is just the beginning of opting out. The PEOPLE have the power, not a slaver-created mechanism they call a “government”.

Embarrassing? Tesla single handedly showed an alternative to oil-based vehicles with an absolutely superior machine. I put 200,000 miles on my Tesla model 3 driving it off road to some of the most remote places in the US, and it never broke a sweat. It was the first car that could keep up with my adventure spirit. If a traditional manufacturer made this machine it would have cost $300,000 for what it can do.

While you are here buying in to big oil brain washing, this company has single handedly done more in the war against climate change, and dystopian hellscape oil/based economies like Saudi Arabia, than any other company in history.

Musk might be autistic and have a lot of dumb ideas he can’t keep contained but he undeniably has a better vision for what technology the public has access to. A single person’s personality is such a dumb reason to support oil companies, with the blood of millions on their hands, and possibly the end of this planet. Keep drinking the koolaide, though!
