Can someone do a quick ELI5 on who the bad guys are here? So much crazy shit going on all over the world I’m having trouble keeping up with who the fascists are.

Yeah, that’s the funniest part to me. The vast majority of people, world wide, had no idea CrowdStrike even existed. Only those in It in commercial or government would have possibly known who they were. Now the world’s introduction to CrowdStrike is it setting everything on fire. Talk about bad PR.

Not that it will really matters, I figure that the lawsuits for damages will be in the billions if not trillions. Their best bet will be to declare bankruptcy and rebrand under a different name.

What is the temperature in Barcelona right now? I would imagine getting hit with a water gun would feel pretty nice on a hot day of walking around doing touristy stuff.

Looks like somebody is itching to be a dictator.

An apt analogy.

It would seem the entire world is in a fascist death spiral. I’m not going to to be so grandiose as to say we are all completely fucked, but I will say this wave of fascism is going to likely stunt human progress for the next one-hundred years.

I legit thought there was a hedgehog on his shoulder in that picture.

I mean… Good? Shouldn’t that be the goal, electricity at no cost to the people?

You got it admit, it is a good suggestion. It just wasn’t the right one. But it is trained well enough to correlate left and right together. Since those are very commonly associated together it is certainly a logical choice.

I mean, there is a difference. You even pointed it out. With a rocket you go point A to point B. That is it. With a prop, you can fly around for as long as your fuel supply lasts. Which is what makes it a drone.

What a twat.

The only thing I think of with this conflict is the Doctor Who speech on war:

Because it’s not a game, Kate. This is a scale model of war. Every war ever fought right there in front of you. Because it’s always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who’s going to die. You don’t know who’s children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken! How many lives shattered! How much blood will spill until everybody does what they’re always going to have to do from the very beginning – sit down and talk! 

Not with that shithead governor.
