    Can you imagine how much better the world would be if all these evil parasite people just disappeared?

      And there really aren’t that much of them, a few ten thousand at the most, world wide

      If they’d all get a heart attack at three same time, poof, most of the world problems fixed or suddenly fixable

      The list does not indicate whether any of those named are members, conference participants or guests of Dialog. Other exposed data, however, provides greater detail into those associated with the organization.

      We probably shouldn’t run after those guys with our pitchforks just yet, it doesn’t mean much at this point.

      I don’t know why, but I always kinda got the libertarian vibes from him. His clip show or however you’d describe it just seemed off to me, like he was trying to sell people something.

        They aren’t libertarians, they are setting up complete surveillance of the population, the exact opposite of libertarianism. They are technofascists, aspiring to be technofeudalists.

          He’s not wrong though. Those who both call themselves libertarian and lean that way are big into MAGA shit. Source: used to work for libertarian think-tank in misguided days of yore and am still chilled by it all. But I get your point that they’re hypocrites/liars. Big-time creeps, some of them.

            The libertarian party was long ago seized by the oligarchy that is very true. David Koch ran for president several times for them decades ago even. David was just a dumbass playboy to be sure, Charles Koch was/is the one running the evil empire of Koch Industries, but still.

            I would like to know more about this work with the think tank even if you probably don’t want to share the exact name, like what were they into? I know Cato actually is not all bad nowadays, there are a few issues they aren’t totally fucked on, for instance I think they came out against pretti’s assassination, what else, I forget.

            It’s a low bar obviously they are fucking tools don’t get me wrong.

      Just saw the list, Joseph Gordon Levitt is surprising. He was a child actor tho so it makes me wonder if he was abused and used it for leverage

    Attendees are also asked to provide their “Political leaning” and are given the choices of “Far Left,” “Left,” “Right,” and “Far Right.”

    We don’t believe in centrists. Das ist verboten!! Pick a team!
