The climate change playbook is essentially just the COVID playbook in slow motion, so I agree, banning thermometers is more likely than any western country doing anything of substance.

Eh, I'd argue it's the same as most media about opposing "evil empires". It's not explicitly ideological, just vaguely anti-empire, and allows people to project whatever ideology they want onto it. I would guarantee many liberals will watch it and think "wow the emperor is Trump, Mon Mothma is just like Kamala Harris!"

If anything it probably caused a bump in sales as people remembered storm troopers etc. There'll probably be a lego TIE prototype for like $600 soon.

Absolutely. I think a large factor is that HR employees fundamentally don't understand that there are jobs that actually have that sort of knowledge that one develops over years (or even decades) because their own jobs require all of 30 days training.

IIRC it's like 5 chapters, so you can read it in 15 minutes.

They want a ceasefire where Hamas surrenders immediately and just gives up all the hostages in exchange for nothing.

Exact same fucking experience. My current job's HR filters out applicants before they get to my boss. We have no idea what they're filtering, because we get stuff for people with no qualifications all the time. They also slow-roll the hiring process, once taking a full 2 years to even POST the job for someone who gave 6 months' notice that he was retiring. It just makes knowledge transfer impossible.
