While I'm much, much more in favour of complete nonviolence, before and after the gay agenda revolution, I think "has never ordered or partook war crimes" is a belt you can wear. If you're on the right side of that you'll be fine because we have a lot of people still around that aren't.

yeah p much. the typical "working" professional even if they're paid well is still exploited heavily under capitalism unless they make most of their wealth thrrough unearned income, e.g. being given money begets money without any merits othe than just having money. you can feel bad you still earn a lot more than other people, but thats how they destroy solidarity and atomize people. i guarantee no matter how well paid for a programmer or doctor you think you are, it's still loving peanuts compared to the actual Rich class

the actual guillotine order list:
1. the rich 1%
2. war crimes and warcrime adjuncts
3. anyone whose ever been racist/homo/transphobic against another person regardless of wealth
4. cry-face emoji users
5. white people

everyone else is a-ok

It sounds like this person got into a standoff with a delivery bot. Like they got stuck in the road, they can't/won't move the bot, the bot won't move because it's sensor registers an object in the way. So they just pull out their phone and start tweeting about it lol.


Probably shouldn't laugh but oh my god that's funny. Like how long did this go on for? I'm imaging someone just sitting there staring down the robot, tweeting, while cars start doing around for twenty minutes until some passerby nonchalantly flips the bot over and keeps walking.

Oh yeah, I misread it. She wrote "in the moment" but somehow I saw "at this moment", like she was live tweeting while staring it down or something.

GPS radios aren't magic, they need power to function. A mask, a voltmeter, and some wire snips in the right place will either make it unable to transmit or just dead. From there it's just a game of figuring out how it works and, if possible, reprogramming them to go to the nearest rich people place and bruise some silver spoon shins. This holds true to any robot left in public, it's just a game of hackers versus designers. And there's always more hackers.

The real scary poo poo is imagining what a terrorist organization can do with these things. It's almost like capitalists aren't worried about public safety more than profit!! :O
