Obligatory, I do not condone violence per lemmys rules, or whatever.
Agreed. This might be the only method to save us. Rule of law doesn’t work, we are owned by the billionaire class. Bring out the guillotines for these bootlickers. Might be the only way we get free.
Free Luigi.
Fuck this aryan Pam bondi cunt and these prosecutors.
Works for me. I’m over wasting my time on platforms where I’m not allowed to praise the great man Luigi for his wonderful deeds and wish for more like them. Because that’s how I honestly feel and I won’t apologize for it! I can’t hide who I am anymore.
This should like… just not be a rule though. Why can’t we wish for violence against evil people? Who is coming after the Lemmy instances if users wish for violence against evil people? It’s not like we’re actively organizing simply by saying we like imagining healthcare CEOs having their brains removed via bullet. And boy how do I!
I’m still waiting for people to get mad enough to use drones for political violence. Like shit, Ukraine can make an effective FPV for like 50 USD from what I’ve seen
Imagine if Luigi dropped a grenade on this dude while just sitting in Central Park.
I kind of hope that will have the bonus effect of making the ownership class ease up on return-to-office. Sure, have your executive meeting in-person. Oh shit, someone flew a drone in and it exploded, shooting nails everywhere and killing half the c-suite? Shit. Anyway. We’ll be working from home until at least they clear the blood out of the carpets.
(Though realistically, they’d make workers go in physically while being remote themselves. But maybe someone will bomb their house. No mercy for the ultra-rich.)
Drone warfare is politically agnostic. If it can be used by a Luigi against a healthcare CEO, it can be used by far-right extremists against progressive politicians, pride parades, or Black churches. I’m not very jazzed to live in the world of Slaughterbots.
I feel with that interpretation, any weapon is politically agnostic. Which I’d agree with given the use of firearms by far right extremists to shoot up Walmarts, clubs, and churches. They’ve already been using weapons against their “adversaries” like the domestic terrorists they are.
But agreed, I’m not actually excited about it. The premise is horrifying. I do hope the good guys pull the trigger first on this one. It’s, in my opinion, the logical next step.
Maybe, but honestly there isn’t too much a need for them to thanks to the existence of things like TLO. Maybe for surveillance over less developed areas?
Idk I’m not happy about any of this but it’s interesting to speculate what a modern day cyberpunk is going to look like.
That’s fair, there’s other angles of observation made available already.
Seeing as you like speculating about cyberpunk, how about if observation is just the initial way to way to sell the drone cloud? Depending on how cheap you can make them, there’s an argument to made for reducing time-to-intercept for low-speed aerial objects.
If you’ve got a bunch of drones overhead already, you could run one in to the path of a kamikaze drone, or if your swarm is even lightly armed, you can extend engagement range and reduce required accuracy with a single buckshot shell to shoot an offending drone down.
If you’re content to prioritize executive safety over public saftey, there’s a lot that can be done.

This isn’t something I’ve ever considered, I hate it! 🤣 Essentially a light weight, personal, iron dome. Considering the great lengths Putin goes through to protect himself from his own military, I could see the mango and friends doing this.
Hell imagine if they made the drone cloud then took Israel’s “Gospel”, slapped that into them and create a full blown Big brother. Sure it just recommends targets now, but with more training from two fascist states it could become something much worse.

Oh, we’re not supposed to condone violence against monsters who hurt others for greed here either? Well, dang. What if I do though?
I mean they’ll maybe ban you lol

Edit: whoops. Wrong thread but same idea. Hah.
Honestly we shouldn’t discount the possibility that Luigi is innocent or that there was planted evidence
Then may the true assassin do some more good work out there and clear his name…
Think of the lemmy.world mods!!!

Eh it’s issues with l.w mods being overall cowards.
Technically it’s not a rule of Lemmy but the instance rules that forbid this.
We are indeed owned by the billionaire class. It’s their country. We live in it.
*We are granted the privilege of surviving in it
Ftfy
maybe

It’s gonna be a good time.

I haven’t heard anything about people buying drones. The gun ranges have been packed though.

Not to mention, the minute it happens, the government will carpet the skies with observation drones in the name of safety

Drone displays terrify me.

I hate this timeline.
