I know, or at the very least I WANT, there to be other good anons out there. By contrast, there are clearly shitbasket anons who seem to spend a weird amount of time (equating to expense for someone somewhere), sowing confusion, strife and disunity. If there were not good anons in existence, there would be no need for all the bad anons to invest so much effort. ‘Over the target’ kind of logic.

Having no idea if We will survive this internet thing, the economic collapse that seems mathematically impossible to avoid, sociological breakdown, basic food/shelter systems disruption (to say that nicely)…

What this anon hasn’t really found here yet, and has been the primary driving component of WHY i have spent so much time in this place… is, how might/could/will We be able to find each other (the good ones of course) out irl, AND CLEANLY identify the bad? Once cleanly and clearly identified, to at least ‘keep an eye’ on them, or even reform them if possible. If not rehabilitated, to make sure they are excluded at minimum. If they can’t be excluded, then eliminated at maximum, from continuing their diliterious effects upon the decent, diligent, peace-seeking and loving side of humanity.

[They/them), have successfully, so far, been very effective at infiltrating and hijacking “The System” which We would have otherwise been able to do just what you ask… prosecute the bad actors.

Legislators

Executives

And Judges

All, seem to be ‘in service’ to The Bad, and thus use The System to destroy [their] Enemies, the good.

Truly insidious. However, amazingly successful at continuing on regardless the inevitable for all of us, including [Them]. Very strange indeed.

Very plausible component of the ‘troubles’ we are in.

Not sure if i myself can master enough Russian soon enough, or any other non-native language, for/by me to be of assistance. But for that, it is why i most often enjoy (benefit) hearing the translation to English that Russians often offer. They, the foreign speaker, would have the most interest in conveying whatever they are trying to say, accurately… even if they are lying. Even if what they are trying to convey is a lie, they would want that lie translated accurately.

‘Lost in translation’ has been a problem forever.

Something even more interesting, is the very difficult aspect of conveying idiom, colloquialism, cultural metaphors and ‘sayings’.

THOSE carry some of the most important parts of what someone is trying to say. I suspect it is a very big issue at places like the UN, for translators who simply do an automaton-esk word-for-word, and NOT (often simply not enough time)… to actually explain a relatable cultural-translation. Either the translator needs to know BOTH cultures well enough to recognize the first ‘reference’ and the other culture’s equivalent if it even exists, and rapidly do the language conversion… OR, as my cynicalanonself suspects, THAT is exactly where many Translators lose the plot, or intentionally BEND the Plot.

Seriouse stuff.
