I mean we've seen it over and over again. Just ask Héctor Luis Valdés Cocho one of the leaders of latino's for trump... Oh right he's currently detained by ice, possibly to be deported.

Well the rich people part is kind of silly.

In the past it was only rich people who had celphones, now it's everybody. Before that it was only rich people who had computers at all.

Of course with cameras, I do have to note the bigger irony to me. IE I remember it largely being the tin foil hat nerds that were terrified of the government showing up at their door, watching for black hellicopters.

Now of course, the typical home buyer has cameras with internet access that gleefully share everything to the government, while the tinfoil hats either go way out of their way to make sure to get cameras that don't go to the internet (or block them from doing so), or just avoid them altogether.

Biggest flaw IMO is it seems like they just are going with a binary "left -- right". rather than specific issues as well.

IE, when the democratic party "leans right", they adopt, cut taxes on corporations, they basically give the right their narratives.

IE Republicans on immigration:

There's millions of murderous drug cartel pet eating monsters in this country wrecking everything, we need to get them all out of here by any means necessary.

Dems response: We should absolutely get them out of here, but it's worth it to do it slowly and keep due process.

The obvious problem being to the uneducated voter they hear "The parties agree, there are lots of horrible murderers here, do I care more about the rights of the murderers, or getting them out before there are victims".

yeah, but emacs still wins out in capabilities. https://xkcd.com/378/

also agree, a trump equivelant would have executed not sure the second the IQ test came in.

Honestly the most unbelievable part of that movie is, the president seems to be one of the smartest people born in that generation. Yeah he seems dumb by our standards, but you put him next to the lawyers and everyone else in that society... he actually seems pretty brilliant.

I'd say it partly depends on where you live.. or where you plan to live. Bottom line is in the US anywhere that isn't a big city. Being able to drive is basically going to be a pre-requisite to having a job.

Want to add in a potential extra as well... even if you DO find a service good and worth continuing to use, It's a good idea to try and cancel it anyway. Why, because a lot have special automations to attempt to retain you by offering you deals.

"are you sure you want to leave, what if we gave you 3 months at half off?".

Rimworld does pretty well on not just "money trader has" but specifically that traders don't deal in, well things they don't deal in.

Elder scrolls to my knowledge, the blacksmith will sell you a sword... and literally buy cheese wheels down to his last penny.

what's he going to do then... flip the sign from black smith to cheese shop, until he builds up enough cash to restock on metals, why isn't everyone a general store at that point due to customers selling and buying random stuff.

More dumb to me is, just simply the concept of nations changing drastically over time. It was the communist party of russia that fought along side us in WW2, it was the facist states in germany and japan that we fought against.

Obviously it's not the land mass and the name that people have problems with, it's the actions, people don't like the authoriterian regime that's attempting to take over the nations around it. People like the nations that show no signs of attacking other nations and look for mutually beneficial agreements.

This is so much like the confusion when he thought the german leader would think of D-Day as a bad day.

Well yeah but I believe the idea is in short the uncertainty, why it's saying "in 10 years". Think of it now as you have a kid graduating high school this year, and asks you what to major in in college that's likely to make enough to pay off those killer loans it's going to take.

and, same wording as the US is liberating california, from... itself.

Good fucking grief... Have they not watched trumps negotiations and the patterns

1. Trump makes impossible unreasonable demand.

2. Other nation gives half as a compromise

3. Trump takes the half, then attempts to take the rest by force.

Denmark now needs to be ready to get bombed, by fucking planes launched from their own god damn airbases.
