“(Girls) They’re always trying to tie me down (Boys) This fucked up world keeps spinning 'round (Girls) But one day I will burn it down”

This reads like an almost unhinged copypasta.

But you ain’t wrong…

I love it.

I think this perspective might be a part of the puzzle as to why this happened.

A lot of people seem to think Trump voters don’t know or understand what their vote goes towards, but I think that they not only do, but want that.

That, and almost half of voting eligible just didn’t show up, for many different reasons.

Although, I’m just some random Swedish dude, so what the hell do I know…

Except the same thing happened/is happening here.

And everywhere else…

Yeah, it definitely seems like change is in order, regardless of what one thinks of the result.

Yeah, it’s not really a secret that things are bad (or at least not good) everywhere, but at least most other countries’ voting doesn’t really directly affect the whole world, in contrast to the American elections.

Well, it averages out with the bigots on top, apparently. Sadly.

Did you ever consider that the American public might just be a bunch of spiteful, narcissistic, racist, misogynistic people?

Not “corrupted” by propaganda or a lack of education, but that you, collectively, made this choice - because you understand the consequences and what’s at stake, and you still made this choice?

Being gullible or stupid isn’t an excuse.

Especially not in 2024.

Man, after the dust settled once the third reich crumbled, that was the excuse millions of people in Germany had.

Most people weren’t on board with or even know about the genocidal engine underpinning it all, but they sure as hell could see the other bad shit that was going on, and by the time it was obvious for everyone, it was much too late, because they controlled everything and harsh punishments were known to be expected for everyone except the ultra-privileged.

Nah, man. Being an inflexible, obnoxious asshole is not an excuse to put millions of people in danger and setting horrendous precedents.

It is.

Porn fakes are old news, yes - but what the post you replied to is talking about is “deep learning” (remember that, before the great deluge of “AI”?) fakes, which to some extent either uses generative networks to swap out or alter the face/body, or straight up generate simulacra graphics/video, as opposed to a human doing for the most part comparatively bad hack jobs with multiple sources as in the past.

As said by others; see a physician, then a psychiatrist (in that order).

Auditory pseudo-hallucinations may be completely benign, especially if you’ve partaken in psychedelic substances recent or long since past, but they may also be an early warning sign of (like you said) potential pressure on the brain or abnormality in brain functioning.

And even that might be fine.

Either way, why gamble? Go see a doctor.

I do believe it’s something like 300 per resident of the US per year, not specific residents with prescriptions. Just illustrating quantities, in other words.

Actually, I believe it might be worse than that, but I’m not looking it up, just tried to clarify.
