Not a bad idea. Just make sure your VPN doesn’t cooperate with law enforcement or sell your data otherwise.

I’m surprised it stayed up as long as it did. I thought Apple would have taken it down within days.

All of their actions have lead to a catastrophic decline in American soft power sure. Make no mistake though that these techno-fascists will resort to using American military and technical power to destroy whoever gets in the way of their goals.

They see the rest of us as serfs to be subjugated to their divine intellect.

All of it is laughably wrong.

Other than “lower taxes” and “stop illegal immigration” conservative policies are largely unpopular. I put these in quotes because once you start to apply nuance to those policies they become less popular. Lower taxes for who? Middle America? No, for the 1%! Stop criminals from crossing the border? No, deport the farm workers and asylum seekers that prop up American society!

This is why conservatives resort to wedge issues, propaganda, and fear mongering to stir up their base. Nothing they actually do is popular. They manipulate people into voting against their own interest or just play on their own voter’s racism.

Personally, the fear-mongering about cities is fucking insane. I’ve been to a ton of cities and never not felt safe. Are there areas that you probably shouldn’t go to? Sure, but that’s been the case for all human history. Do you have to like cities? No, but don’t act like they’re a Wild West town where people get shot and robbed at a whim.
