Treating corporations like people is one of the most reckless political mistakes of the modern age.
They are not people.
They are not born, they do not die, they do not age, they do not bleed.
They cannot be drafted, jailed, executed, or sent to fight wars.
They can’t get cancer, suffer, go bankrupt, or face mortality.
They don’t have children, empathy, or a lifespan measured in decades.
They are a legal hallucination — a construct that exists only because paperwork says it does.
A corporation can live forever.
A human being cannot.
A corporation can break laws, pay fines, rebrand, and continue operating as if nothing happened.
A person who breaks laws can lose their freedom, their rights, or their life.
We talk about accountability in this country like it applies equally to all “people.”
It doesn’t. One of these “people” is immortal, amoral, and indestructible.
Imagine if we applied the same logic to actual people:
“You committed a crime? Just pay $200 and change your name, you’re good.”
Corporations enjoy all the rights of personhood with none of the consequences of being alive.
They can’t be executed.
They can’t be sentenced to death.
There is no “corporate death penalty.”
No “corporate life without parole.”
Because you can’t kill something that was never alive to begin with.
And yet this imaginary entity can:
•spend unlimited money on elections
•lobby indefinitely
•fund media narratives
•influence regulation
•pressure lawmakers
•and outlast every politician, voter, and citizen who opposes it
One dollar = one vote for them.
One person = one vote for you.
Guess who wins that math?
People panic about dictators, empires, and hostile nations meddling in politics.
Meanwhile, we created a domestic super-species that dwarfs them all:
A non-biological lifeform that hoards capital, avoids consequences, and never expires.
We let them write laws.
We let them buy influence.
We let them claim the moral status of citizens.
They are not citizens.
They are not organisms.
They are abstractions that eat power.
The danger isn’t that corporations influence politics.
The danger is that most people still think a corporation is just a business, not realizing it has become a fourth branch of government with a market cap instead of a heartbeat.
They don’t exist in reality, but they exist in courtrooms, which is apparently more powerful.
Is it too late?
I don’t know.
But I know this:
It’s never too late to remember that rights without mortality, accountability without execution, and wealth without lifespan is not personhood — it’s aristocracy with a logo.
Stop calling them people.
Call them what they are:
Immortal legal machines that will never love you back, never fight for you, never suffer for you, and will never die for the country they claim to serve.
They are not people.
And the country belongs to the living.
Not the paperwork.
All.

He is the sole owner and can do with the code as he pleases.

The Russians’ attitude toward a referendum is not positive, because a referendum requires security infrastructure. It means a ceasefire is needed. But the Russians do not want to grant us a ceasefire for as many days as are required to hold a referendum. That is 60 days. This is a very difficult issue, and Russia wants to continue pressing us by continuing the war – missiles, artillery, and so on. That is why we are fighting for this.
And there’s also an issue of the force of these agreements, the force of recognizing these agreements. Ukraine had the Budapest Memorandum – signed by individuals – and it did not work. Then there were the Minsk agreements, which led to a full-scale war. None of these papers worked. We have now agreed with the Americans that we will have security guarantees that will be supported by the U.S. Congress – which is very important – and by the Ukrainian Parliament. The security guarantees will be voted on by both sides. And our bilateral agreements with the Europeans will then accordingly be ratified by European parliaments, so that these agreements carry legal force.
As for the 20-point plan, we believe it should be approved through a referendum. This would be the strongest historical endorsement of the force of this document, and we would very much like to do this. Of course, not everyone views this positively because this clearly leads to open expression of the will – not of one person, not of 450 people. We’re talking about millions of people.
It is crucial that this be an expression of the Ukrainian people’s will, so that the Ukrainian nation accepts this peace and supports this plan. That is why a referendum is a powerful tool. Ukrainians, who have suffered more than anyone else in this war, should be happy about the end of this war and the format of this agreement. This is what a just peace is about.
@simonmaechling We are seeing the drastic effects of millions of truly ignorant people being gathered together and given an equal voice, in real time. And it isn’t good.
This pattern is ancient.
The less someone knows, the louder the certainty. Ignorance doesn’t create doubt - it creates confidence.
When understanding is shallow, expertise looks like conspiracy.
So evidence becomes “lies,” and experts become “enemies.”
@Kasparov63 He smiles.
He listens.
He swallows the lie.
That’s not weakness.
That’s discipline under insult.
We are all Zelensky.
And none of us would have stayed that calm.
@Tendar The fact that he has to stand there and listen to our President, who overtly acts like a Russia apologist, is infuriating. Zelensky does it with more grace than 90% of people could muster. God speed to Ukraine. Playing against a staked deck. Fucking nuts.
One of my neighbors buys eggs from us for three dollars a dozen.
Today she came over and wanted two dozen and she brought change. She had three dollars in change I said “that’s fine, take the other dozen eggs” and she said she would pay me three dollars later.
I looked through all of the coins and there was a 1964 silver dime in there.
I stopped her from leaving the driveway and I told her that the dime is worth $5.70 in silver.
I said take your dime back and just give me three dollars later.
She said no you keep it with the other money and merry Christmas, but she did seem very surprised that it was worth that. Lol.
Honesty pays off.
@IanCopeland5 My guess is that you aren’t going to convince anyone here on @x who does not believe in viruses that they exist. Best bet is to ignore and not engage them.
@tinymanorg Hey @StaciW_DC could I ask for a RT to help push my proposal infront of more eyes? I'm sure there has to be some crossover between your followers and Governance on @tinymanorg
Seem to be stuck at 28 votes. But it needs at least 50 minimum of forum voters.
This is wild! Scientists used liposuction to suck out ordinary white fat cells...then used CRISPR to turn into “beige” fat cells, which voraciously consume calories to make heat.
Then, they implanted them near tumors the way plastic surgeons inject fat from one part of the body to plump up another.
The fat cells scarfed up all the nutrients, starving most of the tumor cells to death.
These cells wiped out breast, colon, pancreatic, and prostate cancers by depleting shared resources.
They even used patient fat from mastectomies to target their own breast cancer.
Why Fat?: Easy to harvest (liposuction), edit, and reimplant safely – biocompatible, no migration risks.
