love how you crumple from any push-back on your false narrative.
This is the type of Pearl-clutching/fear mongering that lives in a head filled with propaganda. There are already laws in place which cover this type of fake scenario, the article itself dismisses the claims you're trying to make. Find me a valid use-case for this law, there are hundreds of instances where the exact opposite happens and vehicles are used as a weapon to assault protesters but all you got are fictional "what ifs"? Don't drive into a protest..... Use common sense when you see a group of people gathered on the street like any sane person would.
Ran into someone with that attitude, their sole purpose on this site is to parrot the same crap over and over. They're just instigators who don't really care, should always take the time to call out the BS. In reality, they would probably be voting for Trump if they lived in the states since they seem like the same kind of personality that would falsely believe he's their savior and a "strongman".
This is such an insane and imaginative comment. Are the century old Americans that talk to you in the room with you right now? It's absolutely crazy how you've taken some individual comments or perceived attitudes and created this fantasy land where you now have "owned the dipshits". Let's ignore the assassination attempts, current and planned protests going on through-out the country, people getting arrested for standing up for their fellow citizens, LUIGI!!, the college protests going on for months/years, this is such a selective memory you're touting. This isn't like the UK/Scotland police that just sit there peacefully (5 people were there initially and stopped their immigration enforcement per the article). Yet still we have hundreds and thousands of people still showing up and continuing to fight while you whine and complain online.
Holy shit, your entire engagement in this site is just comments about American "cowards". Why haven't you tried to immigrate and show Americans how it's really done since you're such a mister big boy bad ass? You seem to care enough to removed about it everyday but not do anything about it?

prepare to be even more profoundly jealous because I'm profoundly dumbfounded at this point.
"What is Habeas Corpus?" joking, but I guess my minds been so fractured from this administration it doesn't even consider the constitutional protections America has.
It does make me wonder about the presidential line of succession though. The Speaker of the house is 3rd in line, they could all get together tomorrow and vote him in.
The Constitution does not explicitly require the speaker to be an incumbent member of the House of Representatives... permitting a non-member to serve as Speaker would effectively exempt Speakers from the eligibility requirements of the House Qualifications Clause of Article I, Section II and from being bound by an oath of office under the Oath or Affirmation Clause of Article VI as opposed to House members.

Would be fascinating to see how something like that would play out, scary, but still fascinating in a historical precedence kinda way.
I'm calling it now so I can link to it in 3 years, Musk is wanting to make a presidential run.
like @peoplebeproblems@midwest.social said, this show has a purpose and I think Trump is planning on going even harder and now they have someone they can pass the torch off to since they've already vetted his ideology and love his money. Gotta distance yourself at some point so you can swing in and be the "savior". He can lay the whole DOGE think on the current administration getting in the way and will totally be a conservative this time. The comments and rhetoric around Elon are already starting to be softer now that he's in this feud with Trump.
Sincerely thank you for commenting. I was completely dumbfounded with @Warl0k3@lemmy.world's statement and wasn't sure if I wanted to waste my time with a response if it was just trolling.
It seems like you're giving of a "victim" vibe with this by stating you wished for only a particular type of "positive response" when you've posted a misleading comment and doubled-down with "EULAs half the people in this thread have already clicked thru" which you have no way of knowing.

StormGate - Privacy Policy and End User Agreement. Is this just the new industry standard to avoid? (post made by me 10 months ago)
Why don't you see it more?
Steam Discussion deleted after questioning the "EULA" of Stormgate, another post by me after I tried to inform others and was suppressed, meaning the reviews is the only course of action that most have at their disposal. Even posting on their official subreddit did no good with the exact same type of response you've presented here,
Why am I consenting to have my "Medical Information", "Browser/Search History", "Social Security/Drivers License number", "Geolocation and movements", and more collected to play Stormgate? (22k members, only 122 upvotes)
(the responses)
- They didn't collect such information (they technically couldn't), they are giving examples of such types of personally identifiable information.
- Yeah, it's excessive, they don't need half of this. However, writing it this way makes it near impossible for them to screw up by accident. If you play games, you probably agreed to a handful of ELUA's like that by now.
- This keeps getting brought up in every controversial game these days and the answer is always the same: They aren't.
- Most of this is not out of the ordinary.
- Imagine thinking all of this information about you isn't already owned by several corporations lol.
- Some of these stuffs are required in X countries not yours, stop thinking the entire world is all about you buddy.
You've officially become part of the problem and an ally to the very same reason why we can't "accomplish the organized action needed for real change (than leaving a bunch of negative reviews.)"
I'm really curious on what actual specific steps you took to "check". It took me about a few minutes of reading to find it.

I hope the people who upvoted your misinformation are able to see this, please think of your actions and conduct before posting multiple comments defending a company if you're worried about misinformation.
Your stances are admirable and I understand your sentiment but they are relics of a past you were privileged to live in for those decades (others didn't share that experience and have been going through this without national attention). Your reality has now shifted and I hope that you'll be able to come to terms with those changes and not regress into authoritarian sympathies like your relatives thinking "if only they could do it peacefully".
Enough people have pointed out the flaw in the "self-defense" scenarios you're imagining, I don't believe you will come around to those without heavy education/exposure on past & current events involving police interaction and constitutional rights (there are a lot of good resources and public "auditors" online you should seek out). I will just point out the slippery slope that exists with the Sheriffs statements, "What is a brick?" - at what point does a brick become a rock/pebble or vice versa? "What is a firebomb?" - if any incendiary device is considered lethal, do firecrackers or sparklers count since it ignites?
An officer in full tactical/riot gear getting hit with a brick isn't lethal, yet a "non-lethal" firearm can kill from a shot in the face or beanbag to the chest in close range. Teargas can cause a fatal reaction if not treated in time. The "law-enforcement" in this instance have decided due-process (once again) isn't necessary and will pass judgement on your actions while punishing you with state-sponsored violence and/or death.
The lines have already been drawn, "People that want to protest will be met with big force... this is people that hate our country. They will be met with heavy force." -Trump
People have already decided on their stance, the various and numerous polls show basically the same support that Trump was elected with. Their goal is to silence the 30-50% that heavily oppose and demonize them in the eye of public opinion. It's an effective campaign. Trump supporters who still follow want the chaos and clap-down of rights to "protect them" from their perceived threats. The neutral parties just want to be left alone in their comfort and don't want to be imposed upon (these are the same neutral parties like in Nazi Germany) and will take any excuse to condemn "violent protestors" whether it's factual or actually representative of the movement as a whole. There will be no "reconciliation" or changing of people's minds till the fascists come directly for them and effect negative outcomes in their lives (just like they condemn peaceful protests because they're in a street).
