If we lose WW3 to China because dumb fucks like this stop us from automating our factories out of a misplaced sense of social justice then America will go down as the dumbest hegemon in history.

Jeff Bezos, worth $234 billion, plans to replace 600,000 Amazon workers with robots. Now, he wants to spend $100 billion to fully automate not just his warehouses, but factories in the U.S & other countries. Oligarchs are waging all out war against workers. FIGHT BACK.

@FractalAnte @romanhelmetguy That is why all that money is flowing in data centers. To lay most everyone off, more and more over time and I guess shave the state put them on social credit but with strings so the same companies can have the money and control Optionally mass genocide may be in the offing

@SAcerton @romanhelmetguy Giving up global competitiveness in manufacturing is what we've been doing since the '90s. The problem is not merely a lack of jobs. You'd have to believe in AI-ideology (singularitarianism) to believe that Americans might really have no employability in industry anytime soon.

@dissidentwest African fertility is slowly falling as well. I've read Africans complaining about low urban fertility among women However its still heavily rural there. In any case they aren't our foes, the globalists and money junkies and the voters who import people are.

@gmwaid_71 @glcarlstrom Love the idea. It would only happen under a dictatorship these days. We've always had too much merchant rule but now we have no other class (not race, class) with any significant political power

"The cost of replacing the first four days' worth of munitions would be $20bn-26bn. The problem, however, is more to do with scarcity than cost. America is thought to have used more than 300 Tomahawk cruise missiles in the opening days of the war, but the Pentagon had planned to buy just 57 new ones in the current fiscal year. There have been no deliveries of THAAD interceptors since 2023 and the Pentagon has not placed any new orders this year. A puny 39 interceptors are slated for delivery in 2027—six years after they were ordered." economist.com/briefing/2026/…

@FractalAnte @romanhelmetguy Service jobs depend on enough people not having service jobs and having other work which they won't. We substituted State for that as well as lo labor force participation and maybe low fertility Worrying about "our competitors" also implies we should trade with them

@SAcerton @romanhelmetguy 1) Other countries would automate their factories (coordination/game problem) and we would lose our competitiveness in all of industry. 2) With such automation, not all labor could be automated in the foreseeable future and we could also still have service jobs.

@wolfetone91201 @TheJavC0RE @amitylee13 Its not but how many guys you can lock up depends on a lot of factors the State doesn't control. Mass desertion is hard to beat That said I oppose it. Anyone who signed up for Uncle Sam knew what he or she was signing up for and is obliged to follow lawful orders

@BigPoke918 @DolioJ @Timcast National and local aren't the same. Reality though is the Right can't do politics so they can't fight Vote run for any office and after some of that, we can consider other options. Reacting, panicking and complaining are useless So is fronting how tough your guys are

Trust your instincts. If you think we're headed for civil war, you are absolutely right. I know that sounds unimaginable to some people, but history shows us that we're on the same course many nations have been on before that ended that way - more specifically, the Spanish Civil War. Yet the time to wonder how such a thing could happen is not when there are already bodies in the streets, empty shelves at the grocer, or hospitals overflowing with casualties. The time is now. You are on the precipice, dangling over the edge, looking down at a generations long war of attrition with your fellow man. How did we get here? Let us continue to use history as our guide. Shortly before the outbreak of civil war in Spain, Cardinal Segura of Toledo wrote perhaps the most important letter to come from the Church at that time. Heed his words. "If we remain quiet and idle, if we allow ourselves to give way to apathy and timidity; if we leave open the way to those who are attempting to destroy religion, or if we expect the benevolence of our enemies to secure the triumph of our ideals, we shall have no right to lament when bitter reality shows us that we had victory in our hands yet knew not how to fight like intrepid warriors prepared to succumb gloriously.' His letter rings as true today as it did almost 100 years ago. The scathing criticism of Spain's passive inaction in the face of the the new Republic's secular policies would lead to the destruction of the Church if not stopped then, and it will do the same now. So what can be done in the face of such evil and imminent destruction? How can we face such impossible odds? Let the life of Nehemiah be an inspiration for the church to break from it's over-spiritualization of the battle it's in, and to deal with the very real and physical threat it faces. "From that day on, half of my servants carried on the work while half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows and the breastplates: and the captains were behind the whole house of Judah. Those who were rebuilding the wall and those who carried burdens took their load with one hand doing the work and the other holding a weapon." I love that line. Their load in one hand and a weapon in the other. It's time for the Christian man to do the same. You've got enemies? Good. Face them, and enjoy the opportunity to spend your life in a worthy cause and to preserve the Bride of Christ; his Church.

@AnchorStill Nah. 10% of people have all the wealth, the 1% almost all of that. We'd be full 3rd worlds if the giant bloated state didn't hold everything up but as @Tower_Overwatch noted we have a ton of debt and so it may not be sustainable In that case we drop a full economic tier.

The reason that this is so insulting is that the US has the wealth to ensure that it's citizens are well and comfortable for their entire lives but boomer and business interests have diverted funds which should be used to create a nation and instead are used to fund third world wealth transfers. It's quite shameless to tell Americans to deliver burritos for $5 when there's 100 million illegals taking up millions of housing units and both parties are dedicated to perpetuating the Boomer Construction Complex. The Construction Complex demands millions of illegal and legal migrants to work for cheep to build houses for a shortage caused by letting in millions of migrants. On top of that, America then has to subsidize their lives through SNAP, Medicaid, Section 8, and remittances to their famlies in Honduras. All of this brings up the price in housing, utilities, food, education, energy, etc. The US has a practically infinite supply of energy and could easily build the infastrcture to produce energy too cheap to meter. The US has more than enough housing to house actual Americans affordably. There's no economic or material reason why any American should have to deliver burritos on top of their full-time job to afford a house in a nice and orderly city or neighborhood. You could even start a sovereign wealth fund to ensure a comfortable life for every American. But instead we're here. Transferring all of America's wealth to babysitting the world's unwanted. And what should Americans to about it? Deliver burritos for $5 I guess. And if you're lucky you'll be able to afford a shack in Rape City, Missouri.

@amitylee13 Good for them. Unfortunately, even if they fail the drug test, the military will wait until after they’re deployed to punish them. So they’ll have to fight and lose everything afterwards

@PancakevWaffle @PeterSweden7 We ban stuff all the time if it's bad or menacing to society, and it's never done us any harm. The opposite, in fact. I've known about false flag operations for at least 25 years.

@mikitaposts @favelaoverlord The big risk is we beat them too badly and there isn't someone who can consolidate power. Iran becomes a shit show for a longtime. The idea Iran can beat our military is 3rd world cope.
