And you, your kids and your grandkids will all work in the factory for minimum wage at the same time! A real family affair, whether you’re an 80 year old or a 12 year old, there’s factory work there for you!

I guess, since they’re careers jobs for life, they’re also saying that recessions like the one they’re triggering right now will never happen again, because layoffs aren’t going to be a thing. So that’s… um… an interesting empty promise, anyways.

Um. This isn’t really an outlier leadership anymore. It’s happened twice, and the vote in favor of it got bigger rather than smaller. Trump campaigned on doing this, and his vote share increased. A large proportion of Americans clearly want America First and America Alone, and maybe they don’t understand the consequences of that, but that’s what they want. I’m not saying the US is going to collapse, way too big of a bet to make, but to say no one will surpass the US in the near term… I dunno. I think you might be getting caught in American exceptionalism.

I think the world is reorienting itself. It’s going to be very painful for us, but we’ll get through it. And America will rattle its sabers and dream of Empire.

Even if the new country is a convenient tax haven, does the new country have educated population, large workforce, good infrastructure, good rule of law?

Does the US? Rule of law is failing. Larger workforces exist elsewhere. The education system is being systematically defunded. The infrastructure has been falling apart for years and I’m pretty sure the money for rebuilding was stopped in Feb.

I don’t think I want to watch this. Is there any benefit to watching this?

The motivation is what I really want to know. Given that it was just some random person, I can only hope she figured they’d never find him? So many crimes go unsolved, it’s surprising they found this random man with a truck— unless she actually remembered his license plate or something, but that would indicate it was a lot less random. Maybe this wasn’t as random as she’s saying, maybe she got in a road rage incident with him…

I guess it’s because I’m not the kind of person who’d do this, but I just don’t understand why someone would. If you want the social media “clout,” presumably for a gofundme or something, you don’t need to go to the police about it. Even if you thought you had to, a super vague report would probably lead to a cold case that would waste everyone’s time, but at least no one would go to jail. If you were truly mentally ill and delusional, you probably wouldn’t admit even to yourself that it didn’t happen.

Yeah, probably. Still, let me dream of them failing, won’t you?

Can’t say it on Reddit, but I hope that they can’t find a jury who would convict him.

… Fucking hell. What is wrong with Israel.

Only people working on them need to know the ins and outs of how a nuclear power plant works, though I feel like people should probably have still some education and be able to describe it in a very generalized way. But if you can’t rotate a document, you’re having trouble with the light switch.

Like, that’s fine if you grew up without electricity in your house, but is that really the case with Zoomers?

That’s terrifying. That is absolutely terrifying. Unidentified, masked people in all black kidnapping people right off the street in unmarked cars.

I mean, thank goodness it wasn’t a Tesla. Imagine if that thing had driven into the protesters and then exploded! People would definitely have been injured in that case.

Damn you for correcting me correctly! :D

We use 0 and not 0…

I don’t think most of the cultists actually want it to crash. Sure, there’s a subset of accellerationists, and for sure they want to teach their enemies a lesson, but I think for the most part, they think that everyone is lying, overreacting, or it’s just temporary and things will be much better afterwards. The problem is, they can’t ever get out of that modality because of the sunk cost. No matter how bad things get.

This shit ought to be considered negligence and reason to at least remove any other kids from the home. Poor six year old was failed by her family and the state.

Half an hour is still pretty huge for a site like Xitter.
