germany even had to bend its laws to help the nato
We've got a political line between the 'West' and Russia/China/Iran/Syria.
You've got instability in Asia with North Korea, and unclear relations between them and China.
You've got the middle east in General, very well funded if they chose to.
the middle east is gonna go Venezuela once their oil runs out
my guess is that it will come from a country you are not thinking of
the point of a gun is to force your way into land or resources
you needed weapons to kill those who stood in your way and force others to obey
his lord and Tim walks amongst us
we dont need to do that anymore
now we can use memes to control the minds of populations
exactly
if a certain political meme goes viral it will erode peoples opinions
so... 4chan wins WW3?
meme warfare is not a joke
4Chan will cause WW3 with Memes
I see your point. That's kind of the point, the culture war is the next great war.
4chan is the manhattan project of WW3
I mean lets face it
Pepe affecting the American election as it did was just insanity
That broke the "post-parody" in my eyes
See, the dangers I see are that people are trying to push ideologies that require 100% global participation for them to work.
trump and fam using it
insane
pepe is not even that funny...
It's the reaction that gives it power.
If the world saw a hitler pepe meme and didn't react at all to it... I mean, addages about quiet forests come to mind.
4chan does have its way to get reactions, for sure
WIth Tim's perspective there, I think 'Offense' itself is the new battleground, in a sense.
The retooling of words to give them a heightened power to offend, or for some words and concepts, to make them seem more appealing. The fight against Hate Speech, the push for compelled speech left and right...
Pepe is the ultimate Streisand Effect
Even today, even with all of the big Silicon Valley companies trying to control the narrative
Once it's on the internet, it's free to take on a life of it's own
well it just shows that even if you try to "control" the people
you can't stop them thinking, Meme-ing
and anything threatening that will just empower those using them even more
pepe is a good example why politicians should not talk about things that they have no idea about...
Can't stop them thinking, yet.
Keep in mind, the precedent set yesterday.
There still seems to be a notion that though policing is possible
Dankula was convicted for 'gross offense'
its why my other reddit handle is modernthoughtcontrol
Thought policing is seriously the risk of the next 10 years, even more so than before
