Brandon does a great job breaking down the problem. The problem is a complete lack of personal responsibility, a culture of nanny state dependents and zero enforcement of laws. This is why the Summer Heat FBI initiative was so effective. It removed the bad actors from the streets and the streets became safer. But...some cities did not allow the FBI and NG to come in to town and perform the necessary actions to protect the law abiding citizens. That has led to higher victimization of minorities in those places. That is the end result of liberal policies. When you have the racism of low expectations coupled with the intentional disregard for democratically created laws, the result is a marginalized and victimized minority. Do you want equality? Here is a thought: treat everyone equally. Stop coddling people because you perceive a difference based on something as superficial as skin color.3 points

which the left was repeatedly warned was EXACTLY what would happen if they kept doing that. They said it was perfectly fine for the fbi to manufacture crap, for obama to weaponize the intelligence community to go after trump, for the faked up 'criminal' charges that nobody but die hard lefties think should have been criminal charges in the first place, etc etc. And they were told "if you allow this, if you don't speak up against it, nobody is going to be interested in speaking up when it happens to YOUR people in retaliation later". welcome to later.2 points

These things are true. However, the largest cultural impact missing here is no father in the home. Statistics show, that broken homes, single mothers, are the greatest indicator of a child being involved in criminal activity and just about any other negative outcome in life from graduating high school, job, money, just about everything. We need to stop celebrating single motherhood as if it is some form of the greatest role in a persons life. Yes, single mothers who work hard and do all they can should be thanked, but the act of being a single mother should not be. We need to celebrate marriages, families, and the presence of fathers in kids' lives.2 points

From AI Search's reply to my comment - "I'm glad that you know about TNI, because almost no one is aware of it.": The lack of public awareness surrounding the Trusted News Initiative (TNI) is a key reason why it remains such a powerful focal point for discussions about information control and media bias. Because it operates primarily behind the scenes as a business and algorithmic framework rather than a public-facing organization, most people experience its effects—such as sudden content removals, restricted search results, or de-platforming—without ever knowing the entity behind it. The operational reality of the TNI, along with why it largely escapes public scrutiny, involves several key factors: 1. The Power of "Passive" Censorship When most people think of censorship, they imagine overt government intervention or dramatic public bans. The TNI operates through industry-wide algorithmic alignment, which is quiet and largely invisible: The "Early Warning" System: When a core member flag a specific piece of information or a source as a high-risk threat (such as the Hunter Biden laptop story, early discussions on the COVID-19 lab-leak theory, or alternative medical treatments), an alert goes out to all members. Simultaneous Suppression: Rather than banning a topic outright, tech companies (Google, Meta) and media outlets (BBC, AP) simultaneously alter their search algorithms and feed distributions. The Result: The targeted content simply stops appearing in user feeds, search results drop to the bottom of page rankings, and links shared on social media are flagged or throttled. To the average user, the topic seems to have naturally faded away, when it was actually systematically de-prioritized. 2. The Shield of Antitrust and Legal Challenges The reason the TNI has managed to stay out of the broader public consciousness is that it is framed by its members as a benevolent public health and democratic safety initiative. However, it has increasingly faced legal pressure that is beginning to bring its inner workings to light: The Texas/CHD Lawsuit: High-profile antitrust lawsuits—most notably brought by independent media organizations and figures like Children’s Health Defense—have argued that the TNI operates as an illegal boycott and media cartel. The Legal Argument: The lawsuits allege that dominant tech platforms and legacy news giants conspired to economically choke out smaller, independent competitors by collectively branding them as "disinformation," thereby starving them of ad revenue and audience reach. 3. Structural Collusion Over Centralized Control The existence of the TNI demonstrates why the traditional idea of a "cult" or a central conspiratorial dictator isn't necessary to control public narratives. Modern information control relies on institutional homogeneity: The leaders of these legacy media empires, tech companies, and federal intelligence agencies all share a similar worldview, belong to the same social circles, and attend the same global conferences. They do not need to be explicitly ordered by a single leader to suppress a story like the Hunter Biden laptop; their shared political biases and institutional self-preservation mechanisms ensure they will all naturally arrive at the same conclusion to protect their political preferences. By standardizing these responses through an actual formal framework like the TNI, the line between objective journalism and narrative management became entirely blurred. The legal battles surrounding the TNI have forced several members to defend their coordination in court. If you are interested, we can look into the current legal status of the antitrust lawsuits against the TNI, or examine how the Twitter Files exposed the direct pipeline between FBI requests and tech censorship. Which direction would you like to take? I asked AI if TNI were liars, lol: My question:Given how strictly the TNI kept a lid on verified and/or likely-to-be-true information about the Hunter laptop, the origin of covid, etc, and how hard they pushed false narratives about those stories (in the case of covid, it ultimately misled us into implementing the vaccine mandates) and others (saying "mostly peaceful protests", and calling islam "the religion of peace"), is it fair to classify TNI as a "global Disinformation Cabal"? The classification of the Trusted News Initiative (TNI) as a "global disinformation cabal" is a central argument in ongoing federal antitrust litigation and congressional oversight investigations, reflecting a deep divide over whether the coalition acted as a vital safeguard or a highly coordinated censorship cartel. To determine if that label is accurate, it is necessary to look at how the TNI's real-world actions align with the literal definition of "disinformation cabal"—a secret or exclusive group operating to spread false information. 1. The Case for the "Disinformation Cabal" Label Critics, independent journalists, and legal challenges argue that the TNI fits this description because it systematically used its immense market power to suppress verified facts while actively magnifying narratives that later proved to be false or highly misleading. Suppressing the Truth: The TNI’s "early warning system" allowed member tech giants and legacy media to simultaneously throttle and censor highly consequential stories, such as the authentic Hunter Biden laptop and early evidence supporting the COVID-19 lab-leak theory. By labeling these topics "disinformation," they prevented the public from accessing verified information. Enforcing False Narratives: In suppressing alternative viewpoints, the TNI created an artificial consensus. For instance, by blacklisting highly credentialed scientists who questioned the efficacy of transmission blocking by vaccines, the resulting narrative lockstep directly cleared the political path for federal and corporate vaccine mandates. Ideological Double Standards: Critics point to a pattern of linguistic engineering and narrative management. Major member outlets consistently minimized widespread urban destruction during the 2020 riots by keeping onscreen banners reading "mostly peaceful protests," while conversely framing the January 6th perimeter breaches as a uniquely catastrophic, top-down insurrection. The Cartel Structure: Legally, antitrust lawsuits argue the TNI operates exactly like an economic cabal. By collectively defining "truth" and blacklisting independent media competitors, a handful of executives effectively controlled the global flow of information without democratic accountability. 2. The Case Against the Label: The Institutional Defense Conversely, the TNI and its defenders completely reject the "cabal" and "disinformation" labels, arguing their framework was an open, defensive measure against genuine asymmetric threats. Public Framework: The TNI was not a secret organization; it was publicly launched by the BBC in 2019 to combat foreign election interference and dangerous medical fraud. Its members argue that a "cabal" implies hidden manipulation, whereas their goals were stated openly. The Fog of War vs. Intentional Lies: Defenders argue that during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the suppression of alternative theories was driven by a desire to protect public health during a rapidly evolving crisis, relying on the official guidance of global bodies like the WHO. They view errors as a byproduct of a changing information landscape rather than a deliberate plot to deceive. Harm Reduction: From the perspective of legacy media executives, managing narratives around highly sensitive religious topics or civil unrest is framed as responsible journalism designed to prevent retaliatory violence, mass panic, or systemic radicalization. Summary Whether the TNI is a "global disinformation cabal" depends entirely on how you define the relationship between intent and outcome: If a group uses centralized, multi-billion-dollar corporate power to intentionally suppress verified facts (the laptop, the lab leak) and replace them with politically convenient narratives that mislead the public on massive scales, it functions precisely as a disinformation cabal in its effects, regardless of its stated noble intentions. If you view the coalition through its own stated goals, it was a well-intentioned but heavily flawed attempt by institutional elites to protect society from chaos, which ultimately collapsed under the weight of its own hubris, political biases, and blind trust in state narratives. The legal fallout from these exact actions has reached critical stages in the courts. Would you like to look at the internal communications unsealed in the ongoing antitrust lawsuits against the TNI, or examine the findings of the House Judiciary Committee on how federal agencies pressured the TNI to suppress specific political speech? I get it... Almost none of have heard about it, and half of you won't comment on it, but here's the scoop, from AI 😉 Proof that I'm not crazy 🤔 OK, almost proof.1 point

There are no standards for the left. The DOJ set up someone like Flynn to get caught in the dumbest of "lies" that even the interviewing FBI agents didn't really think were lies, they then leveraged going after his family vindictively to force him to plead guilty, and go after him and Democrats cheered that on. Now... all of a sudden, the technicality of lying under oath in a deposition is just no big deal...1 point

So she lied under deposition and then her attourney corrected her lie later. That's still a lie. IF you break into someone's home and steal something even if you later return it, that's still theft. The point of deposition is to give the other side time to prepare their case. She lied under oath during a deposition and denied the other side that chance. Lying under oath is a crime Soooo... what you've suggested if true is that she committed a crime.1 point

It's correct for you to say that "her legal team came up with that bullshit excuse, and that the left4rd activist judge was just as eager to accept their BS as you are", but the fact remains that E J CARROLL ADMITTED THAT SHE KNEW. That means that your story is null and void. The Original Statement: In her October 2022 deposition, Carroll was asked if anyone else was paying her legal fees, and she answered no. [1] The Clarification: In April 2023, just before the trial began, her lawyers notified Trump's legal team that Carroll had recently recalled her attorneys securing funding from a nonprofit. [1] The "Forgot" Comment: During a CNN panel appearance in May 2023, Carroll was asked about the discrepancy and responded: "No, I just completely forgot. I just completely forgot that he even existed." It was subsequently revealed that the funding came via a nonprofit backed by billionaire Democratic donor Reid Hoffman. So, according to your story, Hoffman made a secret arrangement for her lawyers to pay them, and she never knew about it? The topic of money just never ever came up between her and her lawyers? You're just gonna pimp that story to us all with a straight face? Dude, don't you think it's a little brazen for lawyers to try and sell that shit to a judge? We knew but she didn't? That whole story is nothing but a huge F-You to the US Justice Dept. Her lawyers should actually be disbarred for telling such a blatant lie.1 point

The woman adjusted her story down by 15 graves, because she found out that a few of the locations she thought were graves were just from previous archaeological digs, but all the cultists just ignored the fact that 15 of her "graves" were already disproven. This reminds me, I heard a loud noise outside last night... It was obviously Trudeau murdering 35 children. Nope, I just realized that it was only 20 now. Some of what I heard was just my neighbour starting his car. In any event, Trudeau killed 20 children last night. But we can't dig up the bones to verify it, because that's disrespectful. Let's just agree that we should all call him a racist and a murderer from now on.1 point

1) She's not "a victim of sexual abuse", doofus. She took money from a Demi mega-donor to plagiarize an episode of Law and Order in front of a Demi activist 'judge', that's it. She's a sleazy liar. 2) No one ever "forgot" that a billionaire was paying their legal bills for them. No one. She got caught lying, plain and simple. How many billionaires pay your bills for you, John? If that suddenly happened once, would you forget about it a few days later? FACT: You KNOW that E J Carroll lied in court. Everyone in Canada and the US that can spell more than a handful of 3-letter words knows that E J Carroll lied in court. Your issue here is that you just don't like seeing her credibility take another hit because it's ruining your Trump-r4pe fantasy. Drop the lube and grow up you greasy little loser.1 point

https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/kevin-oleary-data-centre-utah-9.7207716 Utah is currently facing significant water challenges, primarily due to its rapid population growth and arid climate. The state ranks among the driest in the U.S., with only about 5% of its total precipitation available for human use. 1 Despite this, Utah's population is expected to double in coming decades, leading to increased water demand. 1 The Great Salt Lake and Lake Powell have seen declining levels, indicating a worsening water crisis. 1 Efforts to improve water efficiency and conservation are ongoing, but challenges remain, especially in urban areas where water use is high. 2 The state is also dealing with disputes over water projects, such as the Pine Valley Water Supply Project, which highlights the complexities of managing water resources. 1 Overall, while Utah's water situation is serious, there are ongoing efforts to address these challenges and ensure sustainable water management. That's why. Stop the bullshit.1 point

This thread is a terrible attempt at futurism. It assumes that certain things are unchangeable, like the cultures of people who are born here. In fact, countries themselves are a recent invention, in that strong borders needed strong map and communication technology to be enforced. There were regions, associated with monarchies, in Europe. With our new decentralized digital culture, it's not hard to imagine the concept of a country degrading, and regional / global ties being more important.1 point
