I apologize to the reader, if I didn't post the bad thoughts they would fester in my brain and cause permanent damage. The only things I have useful knowledge of are fly fishing and building codes.

I mean...I guess it has to keep getting worse before American voters really feel the pain of their stupid decisions...

But I need to know the first time someone eats cloned dinosaur meat immediately and Bezos is at the top of the list of potential bronto burger enthusiasts...

If by stock he means a boiled pot of scraps then I agree

Its just virtue signaling, they don't want the population most likely to rapidly adopt their technology to turn against it. This tool is an overeducated dilettante not an alpha chad bro.

Cuba has famously become more democratic over decades of imposed economic suppression...

Nothing is quite as demoralizing as looking at the most popular podcasts at any given moment...

People who have never worked as part of a large organization. One person's personality and goals does not take over something as complex as city government especially for a place as large as NYC. I don't think we even want it to, people can't live with that kind of whiplash.

This isn't a serious person. He is a mediocre dilettante handpicked by a religious extremist.

It blows my mind that this administration is making socialists look like libertarians by comparison...

I just picked it up and am enjoying it. I struggled to finish Enterprise, Picard felt like an elongated episode of Gates McFadden's podcast, and I struggled with Strange New Worlds blase handling of the prime directive but Academny has been fun.

I was in high school during and after 9/11. I went from having a couple of Muslim friends to having to deal with hordes of morons accusing them of wanting to bring sharia law to the US. That quick heel turn was due to massive propaganda but I think it was so easy to adopt due to racism...

Anything to get attention dollars. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a very congenial side text chain talking about how arguing with each other is earning them hundreds of thousands of dollars.

He's a eugenicist and has been clear about that since the 80s even though he absolutely has never filled in a Punnett square

Ah yes the time honored tradition of having decades of planning so you can show up with no immediate response to such a well considered problem...

Online discourse bleeding into the real world is so aggravating. These are serious problems but the people responsible for informing the rest of us about them are too buys pointing fingers.

In reading what you quoted I figured out that Fishback wasn't a major player (yet) and just assumed the point was "these people are weird" not "HOLY HELL THE FUTURE IS A HELLSCAPE!"...

We should learn from past mistakes. Technology slashed jobs in manufacturing, mining, timber, and textiles and those job losses caused devastation to local economies to the benefit of the ownership class. We should be focused in spreading the wealth not killing the technology.

Rich class warriors have clearly identified that broke ignorant men are the most vulnerable willing demographic willing to sacrifice society for selfish personal grievances. I think the best hope the rest of us have is that so many assholes are trying to capture that demo that they fracture.

This isn't a thing he actually expects to happen this is a narrative to make a vulnerable sector of the population stop resisting his takeover of our country

Having now read the article I am less frustrated. These are a minority of morons attaching themselves to a greater moron. The concerning thing is national media continuing to give these nobodies such enormous megaphones. It's like they can't help but find the next disaster so they can say they did.
