News From The Void

Watching a movie with my dad but I can see from whatsapp group messages from friends that Ice shot another person dead in Minnesota :dotted_line_face:

“Shot” doesn’t really begin to describe it. 10 shots fired at a man on the ground. The average swiss citizen learns more control with firearms in their few weeks of militia service than these guys have learned before being released into “law enforcement”. “Travesty” is a term that doesn’t even begin to cover this.

I haven’t looked into it, but my friendly neighborhood doomscroller reported that they beat him up first, then shot him. Unarmed guy. I’ve been playing a game but will be checking for reliable sources shortly.

EDIT UPDATE

Okay, correction to the doomscroller
the guy was licensed to carry and was armed. From the video the murderous gang of thugs is following typical US law enforcement lines
there were about eight of them beating a guy down and they had clear control of all his limbs, one of them saw a gun, yelled gun, and they all jumped back and unloaded on him.

Guy was an ICU nurse.

Been watching a lot of TCM lately. They have played a long string of movies around WW2. People fighting against the Nazi machine. I’m sure there’s a reason for their choices


Hmmm
I got booted out of the forum. Almost couldn’t get back in

I’ve done such checking as I’m able at this level, and I can’t see anything untoward. In the absence of any other evidence, I think we must assume it was a glitch.

If it was intentional, it came from a source either so sneaky or so high-level that there’s not much we can do about it.

My phone froze up. The forum may have just logged me out. Weird stuff happens these days. I’ve run every type of anti virus etc
I can but I really think it’s AI trying to do things I don’t want. I dug into some Google settings and turned off a few things AI related. They are constantly gathering data from us to train their AI. Hoping maybe that helps.

We will see

If it persists, I will get yet another phone or factory reset this one

It’s broken a lot of people. My brother got in his truck in the ice and sleet and drove to our mom’s because he was having a panic attack

Waiting to see if the government shuts down again, though, I bet ice keeps their paychecks

I started watxhung this guy two weeks ago because he made funny videos about the original pokemon series and movies; perfect for late night viewing.

Hes from Minnesota so has had no choice but to make a political video.

I thought the void could use some chuckles amidst all this tyranny.

If anyone is using Tik Tok, and I know you’re not, :joy:, get the hell off of it asap

I’m telling you, something is happening to all social media here in the US.

And I kinda wish I could post this in the getting a laugh thread

Its a tricky one because i can see a data centre being down with the weather thats been sweeping across the nation.

I was looking for some control study in the report that mentioned non ice related uploads working and behaving fine (or not) over the same period but all the anecdotal reports just talked squarely about ice related uploads.

The one about getting briefly suspended for the Ice Storm upload is the only stand out one that seems like it might be suspicious activity.

Reminds me of how badly doge handled things when they cut anything that had the word trans in it, even if it wasnt to do with trans folk :face_with_peeking_eye:

A friend was telling me about the melania documentary last week. I thought or assumed it was an expose or a hit piece. Then he told me it was a positive one. I asked who would make such a thing and when he told me she was directly involved in making it i burst out laughing. Thats not a documentary, thats a fluff piece at best and propoganda at worst.

And they put it in theatres? Boycotting every theatre that dared show it :saluting_face:

I’m curious
what could the documentary possibly be about? This would be a good use of an AI summary.

And yes, on the tik tok thing except all social media is acting weird and I know of so many who have their phones acting weirdly
there is something happening.

There have been a lot of outages lately
I mean a LOT
.what is up with that?

And it is happening here in the US

Forget about the weather, look at the entire “we’re now under new management” thing. Handover processes of big architectures like this can get quite messy

So they arent customs and immigration, they are rhe governments personal security/hit squad. They just didn’t bother changing the name, got it :+1:

Yeah. Waiting to see how that goes. I mean what are they gonna do? Make sure no immigrants disguise themselves as Olympic players?

It’s a cunning strategy to ensure US Olympic victory. ICE will patrol the Olympic village, find anyone who’s not a US citizen (and a few who are), and kill them.

Foreigners don’t stop being foreigners, just because they’re in a different country.

Maybe they meant there were just sending Ice, to add to the wintery theme of the olympic village.

Kristi Noem said “When our agents arrived on the playing field, they were met by people throwing metal spears and heavy iron balls. Some of them had weaponized their shoes with metal spikes. Our agents had every right to defend themselves, and shoot all the athletes”.

Italian Prime Minister Giotgia Meloni said “The US has no right to come to our country and murder people”, to which President Trump replied “Funny, that’s what the Venezuelans thought, too.”
