“C’mon, Uncle Tom, just get over it and wish Obama good luck and pray for him. You bigot.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So in the 2008 election Obama’s campaign would come on IRC or whatever and spam us and call us names directly if we didn’t pledge our vote to some dude nobody had even heard of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seriously. I lived in Illinois <\/em>at the time and was like, “uhm, who<\/em>?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“VOTE FOR HIM OR YOU’RE A TRAITOR AND A RACIST AND AN UNCLE TOM AND A SELF HATING HOMOSEXUAL.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the guy had a vicious and evil campaign based on pressure, smears, identity politics and personal slurs in 2008. I went that guy is a fucking dick and so are his campaign staff. Never liked him and maybe it was a gut instinct or intuition at play here because that was long<\/strong> before he was in office making lists of US citizens he wanted\/planned\/intended to engage in the extrajudicial killing<\/a> of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But thank heavens you’re not a racist and properly love yourself!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By 2012, they had Facebook and brainwashed you into calling us names, “splitting” on us, accusing us of ruining holidays for<\/strong> them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because they knew it would “hurt” more when “you” punished us and called us names, disowned us, shunned us, and uninvited us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And despite whatever they said about whatever they “learned” from it once their candidate won that round and they got their way…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Oh haha well we’re cool now, I’m so sorry, let’s get lunch someday.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or so, the Scorpion said to the Frog<\/em>. See you next election, I guess<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You didn’t “unfriend me over my beliefs.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You never asked me what they even fucking were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we’re going to use words like “traitor” and “uncle tom” then let’s just go here and stipulate that the basis of most of those so-called “friendships” at that time in my life was either, “I got high with you once upon a time” or “I got sober with you once upon a time.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Someone running a campaign here might graph out peoples social connections and start inferring things like, “ok he lives in a major metropolitan area, about 80 percent of his connections are gay. Of those, there would be about a 80 percent prevalence of substance abuse. Of those<\/strong>, there would be about an 75 percent prevalence of mental illness, and then of THOSE about 50 percent would have a severe and intractable personality disorder.” I’m using easier – inexact – numbers from class, don’t quote or source those it’s for the sake of a calculation and I’ll get to that<\/strong> in a second here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And those are going to be the most susceptible to influencing with this whole “If you ____, then you ______” and “if you don’t vote for ___ youre dead to me, unfriend me now” sorts of stuff, that’s “splitting.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s black or white thinking that trauma victims or BPD\/NPD have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If said social graph was all of 100 people – in my case you’d only have to weaponize about 24 <\/strong>of them with this type of behavior and convince them they were justified in all of their behavior, or to love their own woke reflection in the news feed in order to totally fucking ruin everything and spill into\/interfere with my other relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don’t need to persuade a clean 50% majority at the ballot box on election day – you can take 25% and do a lot of damage this way. Those 25% don’t even have to support your candidacy as long as they fight and bicker with each other<\/strong> all day and keep your name fresh in the news feed all day every day for the entire campaign , and ideally, do shit to punish you in real life like icing you out of queer spaces – FOREVER – or telling people not to date you, cancelling thanksgiving and so on. That is what social graphing “algorithms” do , in addition to curating your “likes” and what content you’ll click on – even if theyre not ON Facebook, you’ve clicked a prompt and let them download your entire phone book and graph your “friends” who aren’t on facebook and didn’t consent to you giving them their name, address, work number, email, “notes” about them. They have it all thanks to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cambridge Analytics will then launder shadowgate data from an illegal FISA mirror and figure everything out about those people too. You should have a problem with that. That data is only supposed to be available in the event of probable cause where there is evidence of foreign terrorism connections and this is a fourth amendment violation, unreasonable warrantless search and seizure without probable cause and, these guys – Twitter, Facebook, etc – are downloading the whole fucking thing from an illegal mirror of the data so they can rig worldwide elections. Now you have “HAMAS” up your ass, tell me – did this FISA court or this “patriot act” make you “safe” from “the terrorists” ? Why do we have “terrorists” if those laws work? What the fuck is this surveillance even FOR, then? Are they trying to say that surrendering privacy and freedom doesn’t actually accomplish “safety” ? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that the guy who created these programs and laws – joe biden<\/strong> – is now the “president<\/strong>” ? what are the odds? not ANY safer from terrorism or crime than we were on 9\/11 – if anything, manifestly worse:<\/em> check<\/strong>. and the guy who made these laws? president<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark Zuckerburg or Jack Dorsey made billions dollars off of that stolen data – this idea that you could “just make your own facebook” and do what they’re doing with “””algorithims””” is a crock of shit, even more so that Elon Musk could buy that whole house of cards with its illegally sourced consumer data and somehow make an honest woman or a legitimate 250 billion dollar a year financial institution out of that – really – a worthless and utterly discredited company this entire country hates? <\/em>– or determine your “social credit” when they have had access to the same shit the foreign terrorism surveillance court has on your internet activity, please. The lies you have been told about American “success stories” and tech “entrepreneurs” handed their companies by DARPA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elon over there blames his predecessors for “back doors” and “rogue code that nobody understands” for banning people right, “oh it’s not MY fault we have all this mystery unauthorized code and all these backdoors that do things we can’t even detect, find, characterize, audit, or stop – and we have absolutely no control whatsoever over bad actors, saboteurs, and disgruntled employees in our code:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BUT GO AHEAD AND DEPOSIT ALL YOUR MONEY, OUR SITE IS TOTALLY SAFE and SECURE LOL” and you dumb shits are going to do it, aren’t you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before long the same tactics are being used – by the same goddamn people I might add – to coerce you to shove a vaccine or two or five in your arm, to cooperate with “papers, please”<\/strong> or to take a “side” in the never ending saga of “jews v muslims” (is it time for the Eighth Crusade already?) – when you’re neither!<\/strong> – whatever, as long as both teams enjoy themselves, I’m not really into war or sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, you imposed your<\/strong> beliefs on me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then you unfriended me, disowned me, shunned me, and called me absolutely every fucking name and insult imaginable over your<\/strong> “beliefs” and “convictions” if you had<\/strong> any or knew what they were, besides “I want the black one!” or “I want the one with a vagina!” and “If<\/strong> you don’t agree with me, then<\/strong> I’m going to have a really<\/strong> big tantrum and kick my legs and cry and punish you forever<\/strong>!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You straight up fucking punished me and abused me over yours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think a lot of you overstepped some boundaries, considering that I did not know you very well and that I knew the candidate you were pressuring me and punishing me for not “supporting” even less<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who could have ever imagined that someone with a personality type that is susceptible to that would overstep personal boundaries?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find an example of a time I ever<\/strong> said an unkind word to one of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now you know the only meaningful difference<\/strong> between us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fuck your “friendship.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Okay so like any addict, I don’t respond predictably or favorably to ultimatums<\/strong> and I might be all too happy to accept your terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At some point I changed my profile photo to one where I was wearing the red hat, clutching a gun and a budweiser, with three cigarettes dangling out of my mouth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tragic, I know. I only had a few “in real life” friends who were like “I think he’s fucking around, he doesn’t drink and he has three cigarettes in his mouth.” Guns, meh, it turned Fred on and that was good enough for me. I didn’t and don’t care what other dudes think. He moved and moved on and hates me just like everyone else now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That one hat, of all the funny hats, made heads explode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitch, I wish I had a yarmulke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now if there other pictures of me in a pussy hat, or a kufi hat , or a turban , or a rastafari wig with African colored beads in it whether on social media, my US drivers license (durka durka), or my fair share of work- related Zoom calls I wasn’t thrilled about joining — and there were<\/strong> — these people were so dumb about my cosplay and costumes they just zeroed in on one<\/strong> and melted the fuck down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I burned<\/strong> that red hat, I’ll have you know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
