I tried posting this to KiA, but I never realized how many KiA Prime people are blue pilled thinking things will go back to normal after this.
Seeing how most of you here are far more aware of what's going on, I'm going to copy pasta what I posted on Prime before the dumb mods deleted it since most of you aren't rabid TDers but also understand the "bigger picture":
My original post below.
So all the things we warned about 6 years ago has more or less come to fruition, and the safeguards and actions we took to keep it from getting worse has more or less been removed or neutralized to allow unethical behavior, blatant biased news that denigrates gamers and other arbitrary groups is now everywhere. Every gaming urinalist and game development outlet has an Anita Sarkeesian type or 10 working for them. Reddit went from a place where disparate ideologies could bicker with each other to a site where small pockets of "The resistance" (moderates, conservatives) are allowed to stay quarantined in certain areas but the ideological moderation is rampant in other subs.
Youtube, Twitter, etc., the stuff the normies consume that aren't alt-tech have now openly abused Section 230 in open defiance of the current administration. The mask has come off, and we've run out of options at this point at any possible way to enforce full on freedom of expression and speech under the law.
Where do we go from here?
We have alt-tech, but as many of you have realized, alt-tech popularity undermined by the mainstream outlets that try to demonize them. We now have a giant ideological chasm between us moderate lefties and right wingers and the establishment "liberals". It's unrepairable, so where do we go from here?
All the things you "consoom" has been tainted by this stuff. You can only resort to removing yourself from that pool so much until it comes to a point where you are essentially isolating yourself from society, so where do we go from here? If everything has SocJus, if everything has TOSes that violate freedom of expression, then what is left to turn to?
What is practical that we can do tomorrow while continuing our everyday lives on this bucket of a planet we call Earth?
Go underground, and bide our time while we don't lose touch with each other.
There are a LOT of people who seem to be throwing in the towel and wanting to declare it over. What does 'over' mean, exactly? The left just doesn't get power and then instantly it's game over, and the TV turns off.
They have power. That means they're The Man again, and they have a radicalized Marxist street movement that's hungry for change that's still out there and angry. The establishment democrats won, and they most likely are going to want to do a managed dispersal of token goodies to their base while they consolidate power, and go back to attempting to make money the Old Fashioned way like they did during Obama, during Clinton, etc.
Biden himself is weak, and the momentum for action is going to be coming from the people and structures around him. Without their own version of Trump to rally around, the left is going to be scattered and aimless. They'll cut at us, yes, but without a serious target to sink their teeth into? It won't take long for them to start tearing at each other.
This isn't over by a long shot. The left has to govern a country that is fundamentally different in mindset then my last super political low point, when Obama defeated Romney, and we had the IRS persecuting Tea Party groups, and both the weight of that and the establishment republican party crushed that movement. Things felt dark back that then, and it was terribly lonely being a political activist in California.
It's different this time. For better and for worse. There's a lot more people in the boat this go around.
We are simply in the next phase of whatever has to happen. The left has promised their supporters the world, and now they have to deliver. That alone is a terrible obstacle for them to confront, even with their control of information. They are greedy, manic, and scared. We have to outlast that, and I think we can.
The idea is not to run and hide, but to dig in. This was always going to be a siege.
With everything going on right now -- the doom and gloom, the blackpills being swallowed by the truckload, the Left gloating and sharpening their metaphorical knives for the metaphorical (for now) slaughter of their ideological opponents -- no one is bringing up the Left's own internal schism.
The one where the establishment and moderate Dems are at odds with the new hard-Left socialist bloc of the party. The one that further emboldened the populist right, and cost the Dems House seats when they planned for gains.
And now that they don't have Trump to focus their animosity on, and they're unpersoning every other potential scapegoat they can from the mainstream, that wound is just going to open further up and cause a lot of internal hell for the Dems.
I'm basically just rehashing your own post, but I'm personally kinda eager to see an angry, betrayed mob of Marxists start clobbering Dem cities again, but this time without institutional support.
