  • The real religion in America is the financial system

    Everyone prays to it and holds complete and total faith in it … their faith in that system is the only thing that makes it all possible and functional. They have legions of priests, brotherhoods, churches of finance, cathedrals of corporations and basilicas of banking and entire congregations of millions of followers who all pray to this system each and every day. As long as they all believe and hold faith in this system, it stays alive and continues to grow, even as it eats up all their lives and everything they own.

    And the ending is also tied to their faith.

    As soon as enough of them stop believing in it … the whole thing will come crashing down.

    So keep praying to your church of finance America … it’s the only thing keeping it alive.




  • If you ask the fourth American, they’d probably say that US democracy had already failed quite a while ago. If you want evidence if democracy has failed in America, just look at the clown show in its current leadership and have a cursory look at what they are doing and keep doing right now.

    It’s probably the greatest democracy break in modern history because it’s obviously broken, yet like a cowboy running the dog and pony show with the carriage on fire, no one really wants to admit that anything is wrong with this picture or do much about it.

    The fact that more and more sources are saying that ‘it might fail’, ‘it’s approaching failure’ or ‘in danger of failing’ … is probably a sign that it has already failed.





  • George Carlin would have probably suffered a heart attack (from seeing how stupid his country could actually become) or assassination (by the anger of the dumb people he pointed out) if he were alive now …

    ‘Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.’

    ‘Governments don’t want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.’

    For anyone reading this … go listen, watch, or read anything by George Carlin … if you want to learn, appreciate, understand or have any kind of critical point of view of the world and especially America … go listen to George Carlin.


  • You flood it with all kinds of info and let them sort it out … give fake plates, funny plates, dumb plates, non plates, funny characters, random characters … if enough people did it all over the place, the system would get flooded with nonsense data that they would all have to sort through. Sure an electronic system could sort right through it in seconds … but it would be humans that would have to verify the computers confident answers (even if they are wrong).



  • A neat protest for these cameras would be replicate local officials license plates, place them on vehicles and just drive them all over the place, speeding, running lights and all kinds of crap

    Or just place a dozen license plates on one vehicle …

    or on the back of a truck with an automatic window -> only show all the license plates when in front of a flock camera, hide them again after




  • “I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.”

    Are we talking about American candy bars or European candy bars? … because if it’s in Texas, the child is going to have instant diabetes and will probably lose both their feet … if it’s in Switzerland, they’ll probably break their fingers trying to snap that many Toblerone bars


  • I think its done by design to drive people away from using a browser where people have more control and the website has less control (of course depending on the skill and patience of the user)

    Having a shitty service on browser and on certain devices just drives people to view Youtube more and more on self contained smart services like Smart TVs or dedicated viewing devices.

    I use Linux, firefox and have ad blocking extensions … and sometimes Youtube just becomes unusable
