While his general rhetoric may be aligned, his engagement is driven by people that want validation against those "elite libs" that are saying things they don't like.

Without those voices in the room, even if there's an audience that agrees with his words, that audience doesn't need him anymare.

I think Charlie Kirk ironically would be the first one to balk at the supression of leftist rhetoric.

Without opposition looking to make him look like an asshat while he thinks he's making them look like an asshat, these pundits lose their 'edge'. They have nothing to rant against, and without ranting, what's their draw, how do they make a living being right wing assholes that don't actually do anything or have to take accountability for anything?

Trump has actually said critical stuff of Putin lately, maybe Tucker got a bit of marching orders to stir shit up?

Maybe his 'supporters' but not 'everyone that voted for him'.

Of the millions that voted, we don't really hear the voice one way or the other from most of those people.

For those that vocally supported him before, the thought of "I told you so" is so abhorrent they'd rather be all in than hear that sentiment.

"The enemy" was not the same as "the shooter".

The shooter did this on his own without any 'funding' or 'organization', at most just online rhetoric generically pushing him to the edge combined with Charlie Kirk's schtick of saying extreme stuff for sake of engagement making him a target for those that do go over the edge.

"The enemy" is anyone that is a real threat to the enduring power of the administration. They largely have nothing to do with the shooting, but the shooting is useful to build the narrative. Just like the narrative omits the democratic victims.

A tan suit is, believe it or not, the uniform of antifa!

Or merely mentioning that some democrats were also assassinated this year...

49.8% voted for this, more than any other option. 0.5% voted for RFK Jr so it's highly likely that over 50% of people who felt bothered to actually vote seemed to be ok with it.

I suppose you could say they were misinformed, but people were pretty loud about it...

That would be less dangerous. They can accuse pretty much anyone of being antifa...

The great thing about there being no organization is that they can just make up whomever they think would be convenient to be in such an organization.

Conspicuously omitted some victims there...

How do they decide someone is antifa? Is it going to be just everyone they don't like?

Guys, enough. How did I die, and what am I accused of that holds me to this circle of hell?

Jason figured it out? Jason? This is a real low point. Yeah, this one hurts.

I don't have experience with monitoring software, but I could believe that a VM could be 'opaque' to a monitoring software, and so any sort of RDP or VNC or SPICE or whatever might be beyond the monitoring capabilities. SPICE being a bit appealing since it tends to be a little faster when available.

For example, my work demands that virtual machines have antivirus installed, because host level antivirus can't see into the VMs.

If it worked by screenshotting, then I don't see how it could work, but if they hook the OS in other ways I could see it.

Even if he is "getting played", does he care? He gets what he wants without having to act against his personal interests. If anyone buttering him up wants him to do something bad, Trump himself wouldn't suffer for it.

The federal conclusion will inevitably be that he was a so-called nihilist violent extremist (NVE)

That is a lot of confidence in the administration to let law enforcement do its job properly and not politicize the findings.

This is one thing that's messed up with the 'just split up' rhetoric. In almost every 'red' there are 'blue' communities.

Well if he wants to say that chatgpt can replace even CEOs, then he needs to be the sort of CEO chatgpt could replace

From my experience, a big contributor to their financial success is their unwillingness to recognize any of that.

You don't have to run fast, just faster than the bear. They just need to be smarter than the investors who aren't generally all that smart.

While an even smarter person could respond to nuance, then that person loses the investors who cannot follow. So at some point it becomes a liability to be thoughtful and nuanced.

But how would eastern California go? I feel like if states were breaking from the nation, that eastern California is risky to go with the red half.
