Time to break free of traditional political ideological labeling and divisions. Time to abandon old, divisive sociopolitical labels like "liberal" and "conservative".

A new political party based on a vastly, commonly held virtures lends itself to embrace over 66% of Americans, and it clearly embraces progressive principled thinking. In the most ideal American sense of unity, a political party should not be able to be defined or placed as "to the left" or "to the right" of where the Democratic or Republican parties currently are. Just let it exist organically based on present-day principled thinking. The American Progressive Majority.

Thanks for sharing.

I just want to say one thing though. With drones, guns are no longer the big equalizers that they used to be.

If you ever get in a standoff with government fascists, they will just use drones.

I saw the videos of how Azerbeidzjan just totally obliterated heavily armed Armenian positions using Bayraktar drones.

This shit is scary as fuck. I wouldn't be surprised if, within 25 years from now, 90% of the world is living under authoritarian regimes.

Which is why I think being part of a very large community with solidarity among all members will be key.

Any small group will just be labeled as terrorists and obliterated.

I'm literally out testing my first DIY drone right now

I built it (Do-it-yourself). I'm not sure "DIY" is the conventional term amongst the drone community for a drone built by an individual.

For the actual drone itself you just need 4 motors, esc, flight controller and the receiver/transceiver or am I missing something?

And frame

Then Just goggles and remote right?

Yeah pretty much, but you can just buy them pre-made (aka "BNF" or bind-n-fly). So, relative to a pre-made drone mine is DIY I guess. Again, there's probably a more correct term than DIY. It's not like I built the frame or flight controller.

For sure, the future of war is drone directed artillery.

More so, they wouldn't even need to all that. Just surround them, turn of the water supply and wait for them the surrender when they get thirsty enough.

I'd say we already are under authoritarian regimes. It's just that we, collectively, don't resist it. So, they dont need to be that way. Fascism is just capitalism when you try to say no to capitalism.
