This is going to be used to suppress legitimate votes, guaranteed. When they get caught, it’ll be “a bug in the system” I’m sure…

Its like they’re cutting policy from whole cloth

If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?

What they say: Small government

What they do: Spend massively on police, military, and surveillance while pushing laws that dictate personal behavior (abortion bans, anti-trans legislation, drug criminalization).

What they say: Free market

What they do: Hand out subsidies to corporations, give massive tax breaks to the wealthy, and block labor protections.

What they say: Traditional values

What they do: Use “tradition” as a smokescreen to resist civil rights, suppress diversity, and enforce a narrow Christian nationalist vision.

What they say: Personal responsibility

What they do: Blame poor people for their conditions while defending corporate bailouts and generational wealth hoarding.

What they say: Rule of law

What they do: Apply it selectively—crack down on protests they dislike, but excuse insurrectionists and lawbreaking when it suits them.

What they say: Cautious to change

What they do: Rush radical deregulation and culture war laws through state legislatures while blocking any progress toward equity or justice.

You mentioned a few times meditation gets you “high”. What exactly do you mean by that?

I’m really surprised Russian Circles hasn’t been mentioned yet. They’re a “post-metal” band according to Wikipedia, whatever the fuck that is, but their first album 'Enter is amazing.

Back in 07’, I went to a record shop in town every few weeks and would pick up 2-3 CDs. In an attempt to find new shit nobody had heard of, before buying anything, I would check with the clerk to see if they had heard of the band. If they had, I went and put the CD back, if not, I’d take it home with me. ‘Enter’ came out just a few months before, and I was lucky enough to grab a copy. I wore that CD out before some assholes stole my CD wallet from my truck.

If you’re out there, CD wallet thief, I’ve never forgiven you, and wish you many pains.

I’m curious to read about the psychologists take on Dark Sector, happen to have an article? Apparently I’m bad at searching.
