Fuck Microsoft for kowtowing to nazis.

They're not bootlicking, they're supporting Trump's fascist administration. Microsoft donated to the "Epstein Ballroom" and has been receiving federal contracts. They're in on it...

Are they really calling it the epstein ballroom?

[–] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 2 days ago

The quotes imply that it's a nickname. They call it that because they know the ballroom and much of Trump's actions are just another distraction to keep us from talking about releasing the Epstein files, and actually going after the people named.

This era of 23 year olds fascist incels running my the White House communications dept can’t end soon enough

[–] Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

But wont end as long as the biggest resistance they see is people making snarky self censored comments on mostly right wing billionaire owned social media.

Not supporting it but lore wise it makes sense. The UNSC are (were?) fascists.

But also a relatively unified, inclusive, and liberal world government? And yes, quite xenophobic, and militaristic, and shady/oppressive with stuff like ONI. And the xenophobia was kind of understandable.

The places in the trilogy were mostly East Africa: https://www.halopedia.org/East_African_Protectorate


In other words, I'm pretty sure the Trump administration would classify the UNSC as 'woke' upon deep analysis. Which says a lot.

The United Earth Government was an authoritarian, inclusive, and militaristic government. They acted as a mercantile empire with their colonies. Still, as authoritarian as the UEG is, as shady as it's intelligence agency (ONI) is, what the Republicans have turned into is far worse.

The UEG would not encourage killing migrants and refugees. The Republicans are.

Where Republicans seek to institute a form of ethnostate theocracy, the UEG has freedom of religion and couldn't care less about the color of your skin or which region you come from.

DHS social media guy is a great troll.

How long until they remove "The New Colossus" from the base of the Statue of Liberty (or remove the statue entirely)?
