I’d heard a story years ago that it was an autistic brother of a hacker/phreak in the local Chicago scene actually in the footage; with the hack being carried out by said brother. Another station had their broadcast interrupted that same night, though only audio came through.

That would go a long way towards explaining why they’ve kept the secret. Involving your bro would be a bad look, or maybe it was a telecom engineer and they’re worried about their pension, or they died. Such a cool moment in time that can’t really happen again and only a handful of people can possibly know the truth.

Oh shit OP delivered guys.

It had some kind of siren/PA or something and honked at you because you laughed at it? Now that I’ve seen video evidence that’s actually so on brand for a Musk fanboy.

This is more believable than trickle down economics and really does explain a lot about him.

I’m convinced.

The commercial in question.

A day later this comment is still up. I suspect assholery is to blame.

Post it.

States FREE from LIBTARDS obviously.

Hi everyone, just a friendly reminder that guns are legal in the United States for the time being.

See the problem is people see the word “Nazi” and (for some convenient reason) think people are literally talking about a card carrying member of the NSDAP, which obviously doesn’t exist after 1945.

Substitute “fascist authoritarian” for “Nazi” in more modern contexts and it makes more sense.

Act as if is a concept in psychology. When a person “acts as” if they adopt mindsets and actions aligned with the outcomes they want, helping themselves subconsciously put thoughts into actions. It’s a very similar concept to “fake it until you make it.”

For example by acting as if we’ll have midterms and the fight isn’t over I’m more motivated to seek out peers, organize, and participate in ongoing actions. By acting as if we won’t have midterms I could safely disengage and be content doing nothing while institutions are dismantled and fascism takes root. It’s apathetic and defeatist and the only thing it accomplishes is suppressing people we all presumably agree with.

Right? OS arguments over Thanksgiving dinner sounds like kind of a good time.

A whole bunch of us are going to be working our asses off as if there are going go to be. If you’re one of those chucklefucks who thinks “there’s no point!” then you can fuck right off right now coward. Go hide in your moms basement while the adults try to fix what other basement dwellers have wrought.

You’re probably right, I always assumed he just withdrew his head back into his shell when he was threatened; you know what they say about assuming!

Ken McElroy could beat up, rape, threaten and rob anyone in town until he couldn’t anymore.

Fuck you for making me notice Skums nipple-shadows.

Goddamned right, our government threw its own citizens under the bus so pharmaceutical companies could make another billion. Then imprisoned the people who got addicted.

Dems: “Like what? Go on tour?”

Dems: “Our job is to convince American citizens that that Israel is a cool guy!”

The punishment for not being a profit producing indentured servant? Homelessness.

The punishment for homelessness? Jail.

The punishment in jail? Slavery.

This is actually the beauty of the fediverse to me.

Anyone with the know-how (or will to learn) can fork some code and start implementing changes they want from their service. It’s always been one of the biggest draws of *nix for me (and FOSS in general). I love the really granular control of being able to configure pretty much every setting or feature to the users liking.

They have a timeline they want to work with.

0-6M signatures is just organizing/coalition building and figuring out skillsets.

6-10M signatures create demands and plan events, work on strike dates, keep organizing, more outreach.

11M signatures strike on the chosen day, mutual aid networks work to support strikers, educate new strikers and volunteers.
