just one watchlist? pls if you protested the iraq war back in the day, you’re probably on like 50.
If you’re on your deathbed, and looking back, you haven’t been on at least one watch list, will you be able to say you have truly lived at all?
I’m left leaning, aka a “lib” and I’m a fan of things that are anti-capitalist.
I think capitalism has outlived it’s usefulness, just like religion did when we created modern criminal forensics.
At this point, we have so much in excess that if we did things in a reasonable and logical way, nobody would be homeless, nobody would go hungry.
The people with the power (money) don’t want things to change, because they get to stay in power that way. The only way to oust them is to overthrow the system.
Speaking of getting on lists!
Generic antiestablishmentarism isn’t going to put you on a watchlist, this isn’t the 1950s. Glowies have better tech nowadays.
If you wanna be on a list, start collecting old army field manuals. It’s one thing to say “we should start fire bombing McDonald’s,” it’s another thing to say “we should start fire bombing mcdonald’s, and here’s instructions on how to do it”
Not that we should be firebombong McDonald’s lol I would never recommend that
But I would recommend reading TM 31-201-1, especially pages 78-82
Want to know how Luigi found what hotel Brian Thompson stayed at? It’s right in his “manifesto.” He used social engineering.
Social engineering is when you just take advantage of people’s natural predilictions to give you info or access that you shouldn’t have. For example, if he were to just call up UHC and ask them where the CEO was staying, they would likely just have called the police. Instead, he had to think of some plausible reason that someone might need that info through unofficial channels. I have no idea how he actually did it, but for example, Thompson was a famous womanizer who cheated on his wife. He was your standard sleazy executive scumbag. That can be exploited.
*Hi, CEO’s office? I’m John Doe, an underling over at the CFO’s office. My boss wants to give Brian a special surprise at this year’s company meeting. We’re thinking of hiring a few girls to come over and keep him company one evening. I need to know where to have them sent. I would send an email or look up the info in our records system, but, as you can understand, it’s best if there’s no paper trail. Can you let me know what hotel he’s staying at?"
These social engineering methods are the same tools scammers use, but they work just as well for assassins.
