The real issue on data centers, transmission lines, flock cameras, FISA, beef imports, Islam, immigration, “safety” regulations, healthcare, & pretty much everything…
AMERICANS WANT TO STOP BEING TOLD WHAT TO DO BY GOVERNMENT & CORPORATE A$$HATS WHO SAY JUST “TRUST US.” They don’t. And shouldn’t.
They cannot afford healthcare, they can’t afford a house, they can’t live in a safe & secure community of trust and shared values - while they see yet another strip mall or concrete box data center funded by private equity bros… who are working with the real estate bros who are in bed with local government to hike their local bonds for another mega school filled with teachers telling their kids that they are racist and should be gay or another sex…
All while they bulldoze 100 year old oak trees and suck up water and electricity - forcing prices up while we watch power come in on transmission lines from some ugly solar panel or wind farm covering up farmland… that only exist because corporate subsidies to cronies getting rich from those government subsidies….
To be told that we HAVE to do AI… because China and prosperity… to have our kids look at screens dotted with pornography, sports betting, and eye-crushing addiction… when no one can tell them that we can control AI to maintain a moral society and a Republican form of government, which as sh*tty as it is… is the worst form except for all the others… or that AI is not going to take their job… but just “trust us,” there the tech oligarchs will definitely “provide” for them as benevolent despots with universal wealth… because… you know, yeah - history is dotted with such experiences.
This rant is on behalf of all the Texans and Americans I know who are NOT idiots… who are fine with technology… fine with profits… and aren’t conspiracy theorists… but who are tired of all the society crushing, soul-crushing bullsh*t built in the back of corporate whores who don’t give a crap about them and while they want modern advancement…
…They simply want to recognize America again. Whether they can articulate it or not… they want joy, time, family, conversation, a safe Christian-based western community without Islamic prayer calls… and they would like predictability for more than 5 seconds - with the dignity of a job they can maintain and count on to go along with it…
So – the elites and the government officials can please stop lecturing the people on how “stupid” they are and instead… stop destroying America with debt, unlimited immigration, and empowerment of corporate board rooms over people… and then telling them you’re not doing just that…
