No. Ostensibly they are for processing. Data storage is a solved. The amount of storage available today is massive, abundant, and low power. These data centers are to house the over 12GW of Nvidia chips that were sold and are currently sitting in warehouses doing nothing. They don't want to accumulate your info, they already have it. They want to process it in real time along with everything else they're storing and capturing using these Nvidia chips.

It's not for storage. Storage is cheap, low power, and abundant. It's for processing.
A little false equivalency there - Iran is selling arms to Russia, which is not the same thing as helping Russia attack Ukraine. The US is not merely providing weapons to Ukraine, it is providing logistical support, satellites, comms, targeting data, authorization to fire certain missile on a per missile basis. If Iran was a target for selling arms, then China and the US would be under constant attack by everyone in a conflict.
Just that whatever you do better is orthogonal to voting
That's what I'm saying.
then on voting day you go and vote for the lesser evil
But we already established that the choice is:
vote for people who will deport 3 million people, many to active war zones that we created, and create the policy structures required for other leaders to deploy unaccountable paramilitary forces to terrorize the domestic population and the alternative is voting for people who will use those policies to deploy unaccountable paramilitary forces to terrorize the domestic population
So exactly what does lesser evil voting impact? Tom Homan remains the deportation czar regardless. Deportations go up. Bombings go up. Genocides are maintained. Cultural erasure is maintained. White supremacy is maintained. Police become more militarized and more unhindered by policy. Corporate profits continue to grow and concentrate wealth. Cops continue to kill black people with impunity. Ecocide continues unabated. The military budget continues to grow. Police budgets continue to grow. The carceral system continues to be the largest in the world by a factor of 3 and heavily racially biased. Pedophiles continue to thrive in public life. Military and state propaganda continue to stream 24/7. Monopolies continue to run the economy. Bailouts continue to protect the elite.
What exactly does voting impact?
Just so we're clear, you're saying that the absolute best we can do is vote for people who will deport 3 million people, many to active war zones that we created, and create the policy structures required for other leaders to deploy unaccountable paramilitary forces to terrorize the domestic population and the alternative is voting for people who will use those policies to deploy unaccountable paramilitary forces to terrorize the domestic population? That's the choice? And you think that's proof that voting works?
She is a Nazi, and she is supporting Ukraine. That's commensurate. And the fascist regimes want her endorsement because she has a following, which means she's figured a propaganda position that works for a meaningful amount of the population
If voting doesn’t work then why are the republicans working to hard to suppress it?
a) because individuals among the elite and their factions protect their status and their sources of power and income
b) to flood the zone and force everyone else to respond
c) because that's the role their party plays in the maintenance of empire for the elite against the masses. The Ds role is to play good cop and absorb organizing energy and then literally do nothing to stop Rs (as we saw with the Biden administration) and create the conditions for the Rs to continue their program (as we see with the Obama administration) and to continue the program of the Rs (as we saw with the Obama and Biden administrations).
Fuck, world war 3 is metastisizing
You haven't presented any supporting facts for your position. You merely assert the same thing over and over again. You can't change my mind because you're not even trying to, it has nothing to do with my instance. Just go through US history and look for a time when there was a big change needed and the solution was to vote for the correct people. I can wait.
No, that's what bankruptcy is for. But of course, they won't make you pay damages, you're too poor and they're not stupid. One damage goes above $X it becomes a felony charge and they'll make an example out of you so that no one else is brave enough to copy you
