Vivek Ramaswamy quits social media, blaming ‘false impression’ of support

Quote:

Ramaswamy’s retreat

Current Ohio gubernatorial candidate (and failed Republican presidential candidate) Vivek Ramaswamy said this week he was going into social media exile, announcing his decision to ditch his personal social accounts on X and Instagram in an op-ed published Monday in The Wall Street Journal. The principle reason he cited for his departure is that “Modern social media is increasingly disconnected from the electorate. The messages you’re most likely to see are the most negative and bombastic.”
This is fucked. Door dasher runs into a house because ICE is chasing her.

This is horrible!

Department of Homeland Security under President Cheeto is turned into a group of racist thugs who wear masks and use violent methods to look for "immigrants".

:facepalm:

America is FucKKKed! :facepalm:

CNN posted these videos of ICE agents with their excessively violent arrests of people.

One bystander, a senior walking with a cane, gets knocked down when the ICE agents arrested a person.

The poor guy fell down like a bowling pin:

February 20, Nashua, NH

Officers tackle a Venezuelan man who’s at a courthouse to face charges, knocking over a bystander as they make the arrest. DHS says the man resisted arrest, tried to flee and caused the bystander’s fall.

August 16, San Bernardino, CA

Officers open fire and break a vehicle’s window. DHS says it was an act of self-defense after a man “struck two CBP officers with his vehicle” during an immigration enforcement operation. The family inside the vehicle says they drove away out of fear for their safety after masked men emerged from unmarked cars and surrounded their truck with weapons drawn.

June 23, New Bedford, MA

Officers smash the car window of a Guatemalan man who ICE says refused to comply with officers’ instructions and resisted apprehension. In a cell phone video, the man is heard telling officers his lawyer is on the way before the window is shattered.

November 15, Charlotte, NC

Officers smash a car window and detain a man who says he’s a US citizen with a REAL ID. CBP says the man was acting “erratic,” escalated the situation, and refused to comply with officers’ lawful commands. The man is released without any charges.

September 24, Alamosa, CO

Officers shatter a car window while arresting a 33-year-old Mexican man who they say has previously been deported, has a history of DUI and failed to stop for police vehicles. In a video she recorded of the arrest, the man’s partner screams that there’s a child in the car.

November 8, Cicero, IL

Officers allegedly spray “chemical or pepper spray” into a moving car as a family drives away. The family says they were leaving a Sam's Club parking lot after hearing sirens and whistles. A DHS spokesperson denies the allegations.

Circling back to this - there's been a number of comments/reports that she was an observer of ICE activities because it was assumed that she was blocking ICE. This illustration shows what the traffic situation was - the street was a two lane, one way street and there was an (ICE) vehicle blocking the lane closest to her as she was trying to exit her driveway - that's why she appears to be "blocking" the lane because she was trying to get into the left lane but had to cross the parking lane, the bike lane, and then the right lane.

I'm not certain if she was leaving her home or her son's daycare as there's some conflicting information there but there's absolutely ZERO evidence that she was interfering with a law enforcement operation or acting as an observer. She was, by all accounts just trying to turn right onto the street.

No one should get murdered for turning right (turning far right is a different matter).

Whatever. I don’t even care anymore. That country is ruined. The empire is crumbling and soon it’ll be regulated into the past tense like the Roman’s or the Mongolians or ottomans.

She must have zero situational awareness if she didnt see the cops running around the street before she backed up. You could say she accelerated out of panic when she drove into the cop who afterwards shot her.

Either way sad outcome but now both sides are using her death to fuel their political goals.

I would have felt the same way, if it wasn't for the fact that this now-ruined country is our next door neighbour, our largest trading partner, and things are unfolding in the same timeline that I exist in.

When the US goes down, or even just descends into chaos, it's gonna drag everyone else in the world, esp its northern neighbour, down along with it.

I'm sure Emperor Xi and KGB Boss are laughing their a$$ off everyday at the stupidity and self-inflicted injuries that the US is causing though.

I find myself falling into that mindset as well... I've become desensitized to school shootings, and I'm running out of F-s to give every time something stupid caused by the current administration comes up in the news (which seems to be on a daily basis).

But you're right, hard to ignore it completely since we're right next to the US.

Sorry, that's a total fucking crock of shit. She backed up to get out of the way because she was trying to wave cars past. The core of the incident lasted 5 seconds from the time the ICE agents got out of the pickup to when she got shot.

She accelerated because she got SHOT - she may have started moving before she got shot but the acceleration was after she was shot. It's why law enforcement specifically prohibits shooting into a car like that.

It's not fuelling political goals to say that someone shouldn't get MURDERED in cold blood by law enforcement because she made a driving mistake. That's complete fucking bullshit on your part to claim that.

Dude if America is Rome, we're fucking Gaul. So we're going to get invaded by Barbarians or some shit after their fall? At least we'll finally get some good food in 1000 years or so.

I'm finding that I have to in order to keep some sort of sanity, mental health, wellness. Hard to ignore (cuz I like following news) but have to draw some boundaries in order not to get caught up in the vortex of news cycles that is spiraling down the toilet.

Her murder is definitely not justified. But these two mothers are idiots provoking ice agents, even provoking a cop in the US would probably result in the same action. Knowing how trigger friendly they are the last thing they should do is trigger them and just comply. Look at their smug smiles, regardless of their political beliefs are not, what did was dumb just to double down on their narratives. They don’t care about the people around them, their dog, their child, their neighbors. How hard is it to just turn off your car and talk to law enforcement instead of risking your life.

It is obvious the Honda Pilot very gradually started moving forward before shots were fired. At the same time, from previous videos, analysis, as well as from this video, in the very brief moments before shots were fired, we can clearly see Good (the woman that got killed) deliberately turning the steering wheel to the right by large amounts while getting the vehicle to start moving. Neither she nor the driving looked aggressive to me at all. Both of these observations suggest to me that she had little intention to deliberately hit the ICE agent with her vehicle. But I can't (and won't) rule out the possibility that she wasn't particularly concerned whether her pulling away would bump the ICE agent either.

I cannot tell whether the Honda Pilot actually struck the ICE agent at all. But it did look to me like Good's primary intention is to drive away from the ICE agents and from the situation.

Definitely didn't need to be shot in the head, if you have the time to pull your gun, shoot and side step the vehicle all at the same time then you probably had time to just side step the vehicle.

Also though, why are these women putting themselves in these situations? Obviously they were there to be a pain in the ass, but if you have kids and you know the kind of shit that goes down in the states, make some smarter choices... Was it worth it in the end?

Does anyone know if the pupper in the back seat was ok?
