All I'm saying is the next time neo-nazis march en masse in any town, carrying dozens of lit tiki torches?

I mean. Sandwich bags full of paraffin are easily stowed in a hoodie pocket. Easily hurled like water balloons.

Very, very flammable water balloons.
Nah man, we good. Haven't met ya, but I like the cut of your jib on here.
Wasn't arguing. Just a colloquialism
Pray/wish in one hand, shit in the other, see which is filled first.
If a form of automation does the job of 5 current workers, but requires 5 workers to maintain it, nobody will buy that automation, and it's useless.

The reality is that a hypothetical automation will replace 5 workers, and one worker will be needed to maintain 20 of that automation.
Automation crisis is starting now.

Jobs are going to dry up at an increasing rate.

All automation, throughout history, erases jobs. This shouldn't even get a peep of argument. Please don't hit me with "but maintenance of automation!" That's a fool's whine.
We have time to prep. Even if it's a lb of flour or a lb of rice at a time. Said famine will have warning signs - already does have some - and will not happen overnight.
The entire push to release the files was to bring a bunch of oligarch pedophiles to justice, primarily Trump.

I no longer believe he will ever be brought to justice.
He's literally tearing down the White House.

I don't think the Epstein files matter anymore.
And it still looks like blown out scratcher bullshit.
I guarantee whoever drilled that into him, if it was in Croatia, was FULLY AWARE of what they were marking him with.
"Are you a tat artist?"

No, but I apprenticed to be one for a shot time, many ages ago. Also, I may have spent a fair amount of time hanging out in tattoo parlors.
"How can you be sure?"

Because it happened in my lifetime. One nazi tat on one nazi = all the nazis are gonna start coming to that shop, stinking the place up with their nazi bullshit and driving away the rest of your clientele. This is why most nazi tats look like shit. Done by scratchers.
To be clear on this: I have known actual tattoo artists in parlors who had racist beliefs. EVEN THEY would not give you a nazi tattoo in that shop.

If it gets out that a shop is dealing in nazi designs, that parlor is pretty much fucked.
Looking at the pic, it wasn't a parlor, either. You went to some scratcher in a single wide and told him to give you a fucking nazi tat.
"I got it by accident"

Bullshit. No tattoo artist in the United States, in the last 40 years, is gonna have a flash of a Totenkopf on their wall. Ever. It's a quick way to get blacklisted in the tattoo community. You brought that design to a tat artist and requested it.
Things I DO see possible, and even likely:
- Recession, followed even by a new Depression.
- Total functional collapse of the Federal Gov.
- Famine.
- The Automation crisis in Employment.
- War.
Grasping at nonsensical straws is a quick way to elevate your stress levels, blood pressure, and lack of critical thinking. Believe me.

What's going to happen? Bad stuff, yes. Likelihoods depend on which red flags you see comin' down the line.

National Martial law ain't one of 'em.
Oh, ok, so you put a bunch of snacks from the fridge on a plank, and everyone talks about your "great charcuterie." If I eat the same snacks out of the fridge at midnight, all I get is "who are you," "how did you get in," and "yes, officer, there is a naked stranger in my kitchen."
To circle back: The No Kings protests today are an excellent example of why national Martial Law is a Hollywood fairy tale.

Imagine if Trump tried to tell the military to go out and put a stop to these protests.

Across the nation.

Look at the vids and pics. Look at how many people.
As noted: They would need to hire 11,500,000 or more ICE agents.

At which point ICE would outnumber the current US Active Duty Military by 8 to 1.

So. No.
As I did above in the first post? Jeesh.
So Happy Tree Friends Mk.2?
