So critical that anyone whom decided not to vote for a genocider is blamed for Trump today, rather than blaming the Dems for supporting genocide?

Probably in unionized jobs, huh?

Every "voot bloo no matter hoo" person says the same thing...

That's hardly true. Lots of people get up votes saying we needed to kill Palestinian kids, if it meant Harris getting elected.

For years, we were warning the Dems that they need to represent the working class, and they chose instead keep representing their campaign donors.

So, who is ar fault again?

but what can stand in the way of wholesale dismantling of the democratic process

An armed, and radicalized proletariat.

This is a major difference between fall of the USSR Putin, and the US of A today - We have a fucking lot more guns in the hands of civilians than they had in Russia. Remember, anything besides a shotgun was essentially banned in Russia.

And, historically, when things hit "Great Depression" levels of bad... We use them, oddly enough, to benefit our comrades in the working class. For example, Deacons for Defense, or Penny Auctions.

The 21st century tech oligarchs are more powerful than nations.

No, they aren't. At least not most nations.

Unless a 21st century tech oligarch is able to pinpoint their enemy's position to within 10m, and send a Drone Strike to take them out? Then no.

Because right now, Trump could rid us all of Elon, should he choose, with merely an order.

The dirt is all public. Nobody cared.

When a fascist supports you, like Dick Cheney, you're on the wrong side of history.

This is not the Democrats fault.

No blame goes to the Dems at all?

None?

Not even any blame for running bad campaigns, with bad candidates? Three times in a row? No blame for relying on "Not Trump" as a campaign strategy? No blame for insisting the economy is grand, even though all the voters are saying otherwise?

Anyone who thinks the US, post 9/11 as utopia, by most any measure, is looking at things through Rose Colored Lenses.

How can someone incompetent stay employed in their current role?

It's not like that's on the horizon, anyways.

If peers and supers are on your side, actions would not need to be explained through incompetence.

Ok, cool! They can explain away, and help make the "oops" more plausible...

If peers and supers are not on your side they are going to get rid of you with expediency.

That is happening, anyways. Thankfully, Public Servants are unionized.

I guess we’ll just have to re-deply from git. No big deal

If it's up to date... Of course, you can slow walk the restores, or even re-deploys.... Again, at best, my example was a 20 minute outage. But it's still an outage.

Intentionally deleting backups is 100% destruction of govt. property.

Ok, so just "accidentally hit a key, and have it back up the wrong directory, and forget to check backup reports..."

Either way, I think you mean well with your inquiry. Hopefully this can help with understanding.

I fully understand what I'm saying. And I fully understand what Simple Sabotage means. It doesn't mean you will be the single thing that stops the machine... But you can muck up the works.
