Twitter is still the best neutral media out there, and certainly number 1 for news. (In 146 countries)

If you want a filtered echo chamber that lies to you with insane propaganda, use pedosky or Reddit. But forget pretending you have any critical thought.

I agree. It's nice to hear someone grounded discuss it.

A lot of people (particularly on Reddit) have been driven insane by psyops, they can't critically think outside what they are told to think anymore. It's amazing to watch, and also quite sad/scary

Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:39PM (#43121301)
Yeah, they really aren't happy the corruption is being unearthed, this is above and beyond anything they were planning.

Hell, there should have been massive riots by the left now, though the funding has now disappeared for the professional organisers and rent a crowd.

Democrats are 20 mil in debt from the election, and now their money funnels have been closed down. They simply weren't expecting this.

Less than 10% went to the needy. Most of the rest was either wasteful, political or a chain of NGOs performing kickbacks.

They were funding censorship campaigns on American citizens etc

You have to stop being your information from CNN and Reddit. It destroys your critical thinking skills and ultimately drives some people insane

Yes, good.
Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:32PM (#43121216)
Because then they would have found the fraud, and some very powerful people would be out of money....
Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:31PM (#43121204)
Yeah exactly.

The article is hyperbola and ultimately trying to push the "Auditing and finding corruption is bad"

China already had full access (and extracted) all treasury information in a recent cyber attack. Look it up
Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:28PM (#43121174)
People being convinced it's a bad idea, By the same politicians and beaurocrats who have wasting, laundering and getting kickbacks, They are the joke.

"Blame the smoke detector, not the fire" people are demoralised people driven insane

They're data scientists amongst other things, you need to tie different data tables and sources together to get hotspot reports.
Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:25PM (#43121126)
illegal aliens, and the NGOs who have been bringing them in and supporting them, that the democrats brought in as future voters so they would have complete control, Well, no more funding for them!

At least, not from America! It's no secret that these NGOs are now trying to attach themselves to Brussels to continue ops in the US, leeches will be leeches

Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:22PM (#43121082)
I think what is worse is people literally driven insane by the psyops that bad been running for last few years.

Documentation found of US agencies funding psyops to basically crush critical thinking skills and scream what their handlers want them to scream. "Hate the smoke detector, not the fire!"

For this situation, that these agencies and their psyops have put you in, you have my greatest sympathy.

Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:18PM (#43121040)
They do. Elon already had top secret due to NASA/military work. The rest were authorised/given clearance for the work.
Re:DOGE has 'god mode' access to government data on Thursday February 20, 2025 @05:16PM (#43121017)
You're right. Though the replies you get will sound like the end of the world.

You'll have to deal with people replying who have been driven literally insane by propaganda.

Money was sent to media agencies (e.g. 9mil Reuters) , to run this massive psyop.

You can't put a band aid on what has been done to them, and they can't critically think their way out of it.

Re: on Tuesday February 04, 2025 @05:46PM (#42940186)
Relax, they are going after govt waste, graft and kickbacks.

Govts departments are notoriously inefficient - more inefficient than you can believe possible. Sometimes very little of the money you allocate goes to the desired outcome.

Let's shine a spotlight on what works, what doesn't, and where the money is actually being spent.

Re:US pauses all Federal aid and grants on Tuesday January 28, 2025 @05:25PM (#42858912)
No it's allowed, and has been done before by other presidents.

3 trillion is a lot of cash, how much of it is wastage/unnecessary?

My bet is - most of it.

The good guys won. Get over it.
Are these like gigs? Can anyone worldwide get this cash?
Re:Is Twitter Fail Whaling? on Saturday November 02, 2024 @03:56AM (#42024780)
It's insane. Doj and democrat state governments suing to stop removing noncitizens from the ballots. Flooding swing areas with migrants who are then voting illegally.

I'm Australian and I have no idea how anyone has the gaul to say the US has a fair election process right now. It's like it's been taken over by an organized crime gang.

Were you also cheering on the locking up of assange? The revelations of governments breaking laws and people being crushed - and the high price for people revealing it - always seem to attract an 'INGSOC'esque discreditation campaign
It's more established there is a smear campaign against him, with bots and shills trying to smear him as it's pretty hard to refute what he says.

Guy been put through hell, in the new UK where free speech is nonexistent and people are imprisoned for opposing 'the party'.

Mind you, I'm not English nor do I live there, but it's scary seeing what is happening there and how it seems to be spreading

He exposed an organised totalitarian system taking over both gov and legal system, with anyone resisting being arrested/crushed with lawfare. Go see the documentary he created, it's eye opening, scary, true.
Capitalism is why it was done in the first place, instead of people waiting in lines outside stores.
