Building something really expensive that the community doesn’t want is a good way to get maximally expensive arson committed against you. The bell has already been rung. The option is already on people’s minds.
In another context, the AI company is raping that community.
That’s what it means to govern without consent, essentially.
Just another day in America, Incorporated ™
There’s only one solution… we obviously need corporate tax cuts. Let’s print more money, too, just to be safe.
If there’s no point in voting, what’s the point in following the law at this point? That’s the only thing holding up this system of governance, the will of the people. Should the people feel the government has become tyrannical (aka consistently ignoring the direct democratic will of the people through their votes) then it is the duty of the people to alter or abolish it. The Declaration of Independence says as much.
Yes, now please take action.
They won’t. Things will unfortunately get worse before getting better. Right now people have to much to lose. Eventually they won’t, and people will actually standup for themselves.
There is a clear breach of the social contract between the state and the citizens. The consent of the governed should have been withdrawn decades ago.
The best defense they had for such things previously was “but it is going to create alot of jobs for locals”. Now that they want to mostly automate everything in datacenters including security and maintenance, they don’t even care to sell it like that. It is more like “we are gonna do it, talk to daddy Trump if you have issues pleb”
Missouri voted no for on paying for a Kansas City sports stadium but the mayor is building it anyway.
What’s the point in voting if they don’t care?
Of course they don’t care. The government no longer fears the people. The people are little more than livestock to The Epstein Class and their minions.
Until they go too far. Tale as old as time.
Always was. 🧑🚀 🔫 👩🚀
Not always. The rise of every civilization at some point requires people actually coming together and caring.
Its when it passes a certain number of people and there’s no longer direct interactions that things tend to fall apart.
To show them later that a peaceful option was presented.
Don’t you just love it that the country that made a point of it for decades to bomb some democracy into other countries also for decades ignored the votes and voices of its own citizens?
Anyone here old enough to remember how Gore lost even though he won, but a few people in power just decided to ignore that?
America never was a democracy, it always only pretended to be
I don’t know what you mean. Wealthy companies are citizens too. Just look away and let them take priority, patriot.
It was never a democracy because it is a constitutional republic.
*sign* It was never a direct democracy. That is but one sort of democracy.
Much like there is “water”, which as a pure chemical is H2O - but most of the water we encounter isn’t actually pure water.
Please learn what words actually mean instead of just spouting off shit you’ve seen other people say.
A constitutional republic is a form of representative democracy.
Splitting hairs over the difference between a democracy and a democratic-republic misses the point. China, Russia, even North Korea, are all constitutional republics. Do you want to live in a country with a dictatorship like that? I don’t.
Do you want to live in a country with a dictatorship like that? I don’t.
Uh, I’ve got some bad news for you …
Oppose it. For most of my life the United States was not a dictatorship. It’s still not quite, yet. But MAGA is certainly trying.
Regardless, the distinction between democracy and a republic conservatives so often make to discredit democracy is one that slyly promotes dictatorship.
That implies our elected officials represent the will of their electorate. They do not. They represent the will of their corporate owners, “campaign donors”. It is a plutocracy.
I drove past the construction site every day. They call it “The Barn” after hiring a marketing firm to come in and try to make it more appealing. It’s massive and just gets bigger and bigger. iirc they got permission to begin construction before it was approved, then the zoning drama began. There’s now a razor wire fence around the perimeter and the area is patrolled by state cops during the day. Clearly they know the situation.
The worst thing is I constantly get targeted ads about the construction. The ads say “we’ll pay for the giant increase in energy consumption” and “it’ll help reduce costs for everyone!” which is obvious horseshit. What costs are gonna go down, how will they be reduced? Energy costs? Fuel costs? Taxes? The marketing firm knows people are stupid enough to believe anything, even sentences that don’t make any fucking sense.
oh this sucks man.
they are already losing AI race to china: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-04-27/why-china-s-deepseek-qwen-and-moonshot-are-a-worry-for-us-ai-rivals
why even make people suffer from high electric bills
Interesting read. Here’s a link without the paywall: https://archive.ph/20260507223322/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-04-27/why-china-s-deepseek-qwen-and-moonshot-are-a-worry-for-us-ai-rivals
Edit:
Anthropic has accused DeepSeek, Moonshot and another Chinese AI lab, MiniMax, of “industrial-scale distillation attacks” — illegally extracting capabilities from its proprietary Claude model using 24,000 fraudulent accounts to gain an edge
Anthropic’s says:
Illicitly distilled models lack necessary safeguards, creating significant national security risk
So open weight models are a national security risk? Guess we’d all better pay subscriptions, let the data centers be built, and let a couple companies building proprietary models have a monopoly to protect our security, then. 🙄
Poor things, they paid fairly all the data harvested from us, creators and publishers and now the Chinese have that data for “free”
Bottles can fly from real far away
Come down here and give it your best shot
But I see a lot more armchair militancy than actual actions
What is the point of your useless comment? I bet you are sad person, useless just like your comment. 100% sure if Luigi told you his plan you will be rambling your useless comment to him too
That’s the spirit.
Seriously. Your more likely to see a woman from tiktok planting bamboo (hilarious, although probably ineffective) by the data center then all the “if it were me I would” type of comments.
Or a teen from Instagram who thinks he has nothing to lose.
Because in this day and age, they kind of don’t have anything to lose. Especially if our dumbass fucking president gets his way.
Burn it down over and over. Napalm it. Vandalize the trucks and equipment. Sabotage the shit out of it until their insurance costs just aren’t worth it.
Join the crews working on it. Mark out and soften up a secret access point for a plucky freedom fighter.
Pour sugar in the concrete mix.
Then eat the concrete!
Do the dew!
Include an unprotected exhaust vent in the trench.
One about the size of a womp rat.
Also, malicious compliance works. While working, work as slow as possible. Forgot to bring something wherever you go. Drop nails “by accident” in places that cause issues. Mess up measurements. Etc. Take thier money, but work in a way that slows things down or breaks things.
Or just sleep on the job. Collect a paycheck and waste their time, money, and resources hopefully hiring another person who will do the same.
Fuck em right in the wallet.
$16 billion
You’d have to do a lot more than that to affect them financially
No we only let police use their helicopters to bomb citizens not businesses
This actually happened btw

Before they go watch some netflix or something. The lack of awareness is amazing
I might have gotten 30 downvotes but I feel confident that none of them will ever actually do anything. My problem isn‘t the subject matter either but how it was written as a prompt. As if the commenter themselves were doing it on the daily and all we had to do was joining them. They‘re not. They never burned down a data center so they shouldn‘t talk like they did. That‘s my only gripe here.
Why not just build all these overseas? I hear UAE has some recently demolished plots perfect for new data centres
Why not just build all these overseas?
Iran keeps having a say in their operation
If ONLY there was SOMETHING the Residents could Do when their Voices are VIOLENTLY Ignored by Rich People and Politicians! OH WELL make sure you FOLLOW the LAW or Go To Jail POORS!
There’s a handful of quite genius ways to cause massive problems with minimal effort. I mean, there has to be… there always is. Like the trick to dump sugar in wet concrete, so it never sets… what are the equivalent tricks for obstructing data centers?
Edit: cheap drone flies conductive dust to the air conditioning systems? Like powdered metal dumped somewhere very sensitive, where it can be carried to sensitive equipment by the air pumps? Or fire/smoke at the intake?
No idea… but there’s got to be something. Water, smoke, dust, even RF noise should be able to interrupt operations to some extent if you can target the right parts.
Evidently they’re being patrolled 24/7 by state police

Ain’t that the truth
cheap drone flies conductive dust to the air conditioning systems? Like powdered metal dumped somewhere very sensitive, where it can be carried to sensitive equipment by the air pumps? Or fire/smoke at the intake?
Wouldn’t work. Dust is a major problems for data centers, and they already have pretty strict air-handling controls to prevent it.
Your main ways of disrupting one is by taking out the power, the HVAC, or the structure. I think out of the 3, the HVAC would be the easiest to disable from the outside. That being said, datacenters are not inherently problematic, so make sure you know what you are trying to destroy before you actually destroy it.
indeed
How much sugar goes in the concrete again?
ah fuck it, throw in all the bags
Pass a new law. Make “it was an AI datacenter” an affirmative criminal defense against charges of arson. An affirmative defense is when you go to court and say, “yes, I did the act, but it was necessary because reason X.” “Yes, I shot and killed the guy, but I did so because he broke into my house and was trying to kill me.” That’s an affirmative defense.
Fuck it. Ultimately the law is subordinate to the will of the people. If they’re going to just ignore the voters, the voters should make it so people can’t be prosecuted for burning down AI data centers. It just won’t be illegal.
“Yes I shot the guy but he was an AI data center” would make a good episode of love death and robots.
naming it after the show i assume, is a travesty.
Unless those infrastructure promises are built into law and enforced, they’re lies. Why do we have so many superfund sites and leaking abandoned oil wells? Because industry gets to lie and destroy as they please before using lawyers to evade responsibility through the courts until residents give up or die.
America was founded and created by lawyers and landowners, so they could acquire more land the British government denied them access to.
