It worked out well for the US too.

Because he's the current designated driver of the US. Remember when he started his presidential campaign and it felt like a total joke, and it continued feeling like a total joke until he just... got to win.

I think they've already been doing that for some time.

That's part of the Dash to Dock extension I think. Go to the Dash to Dock settings in the Extensions app. There should be settings in one of the tabs for notification icons/badges or something similar.

It's 20¢ per install max so even if that policy is literal it isn't quite that extreme. But I do wonder if they'll have a policy for someone downloading repeatedly. I have my browser disk cache disabled so I wonder if it's actually literal in terms of install/initialization or if it's more about having some kind of Unity tracker cookie that identifies users.

yeah the project for a new american century stuff I guess counts as the obvious motive and documentation lmao they kind of just put it all out there didn't they.

No evidence, no study, just vibing it out.

Most of the 9/11 stuff.

With things like the Kennedy assassination there's all kinds of documentation and motives and obvious cover ups and fake media narratives. With 9/11, it's basically that they needed to do a false flag terrorist attack to invade Afghanistan. Maybe it's just because it happened more recently. There's just a lack of any clear plot like we have with literally every other shady event in US history. Like a lot of people say, 9/11 seems like more of a Pearl Harbor than a Gulf of Tonkin. Yes it had preceding causes, but they're publicly known and stated by the parties involved. 9/11 stuff has no real world meaning other than "they needed a cause to invade Afghanistan". Maybe that's enough cause to let someone fly a plane into an important building, I don't know.

I'm not willing to concede that the ruling class of this country was able to successfully carry out a false flag terrorist attack on their own important buildings (symbolic of American empire, full of US government stuff), as a pretense for starting new wars. I mean maybe, but it just feels pointless. Guess we wait and see if anything new ever comes out. Weird little coincidences aren't coherent enough.

Hope you're not looking to analyze the deep state or even the US government. Right Wingers criticize those!

Sort of but they also don't. They do some clearly half-assed finger wagging type of thing and stop short of talking about anything that matters, like who actually suffers.

It's like talking about Edward Snowden and only concluding that spying is bad because someone could see a picture of you naked, instead of talking about the fact that they're spying on communications all over the Middle East and the rest of the world and probably using that to help perform assassinations of people that challenge US power or God knows what else. Creating malware to destroy Iranian power generation facilities, etc.

You don't have to collapse a building to "destroy intel" lmao. Think this one's just the US of A getting absolutely owned.

Seems pretty clear to me. A lot of this conspiracy stuff just distracts from how awful the ruling class of this country is. The people who repeat the 9/11 theories often seem to be cranks that couldn't care less about people in other countries, even though they try to depict 9/11 as the evil of the US ruling class.
