  • Additionally, everyone speaks in this insufferable Marvel-tone full of cheeriness and quippiness. The characters speak and act as if they’re aware they’re in a video game and never drop the infuriating singsong HR tone.

    Ever work with someone whose parent(s) were in HR? You’ll know what I mean.

    Maybe this is a gen z thing and I’m just falling behind the times. I don’t know. But the ME3-tier ending really seals the deal. I’ll pay $10 max for this and probably refund in 2 hours, or just get a crack later down the line.

    I counter the hypothetical with an actual reality!

    The current rate of resource consumption by the human race guarantees complete and total collapse of anything resembling todays human society within the next 50 years, followed by a near extinction level population crash.

    The surviving societies would then have no way left to re-enter the industrial age, as all easily accessible natural resources were mined out long ago, and they would lack the technology needed to access deeper veins/wells/etc.

    This is not hypothetical, this is actually going to happen and humanity has said “we don’t give a shit”. This is not doomerism, this is proven scientific fact.

    Climate scientists have been screaming and shouting about this for decades trying to get anyone to listen. We are way way way too late to stop it now.

    Might as well enjoy some bluefin tuna before they go extinct too.






  • Ford also famously runs ads (in the US) boasting about their lie-flat drivers seats in their trucks because so many people can afford a truck payment but not a rent payment.

    Beats being on the streets which is almost impossible to come back from.

    The collapse of Western society is being witnessed by hearing anecdotes on forums until you’re the one in the anecdote.

    The disadvantaged are simply swept into the streets to die, and washed into the gutters afterwards (Newsom, anyone?).

    Ironic, considering how often people lose their shit over fabricated Tiananmen propaganda.

    The very wealthy are also petulant little pigs who clad themselves in designer clothing, diamonds, and gold. Who literally clutch pearls and hiss at minorities. Who support genocides and drive drunk on public roads after their racist little evening gatherings.

    Let’s stop pretending these ghouls are valid human beings. Entire Royal families have been terminated for having less relative wealth to the workers than todays ruling class.

    American elections are not actually elections, they are private decisions made by Party Committees and votes are just a suggestion by the “constituents”.

    Each party privately selects their own candidate to run, independent of the voters’ will, and then the actual “government” election run by the government is where those privately selected agents get to duke it out in public.

    As always, liberal accusations of “authoritarian” socialist states are just another confession. The DNC plays this game the same way the RNC does.

    What other logical explanation is there for the lack of universal public healthcare, education, social safety net, Roe v Wade not being codified into law, PATRIOT act, Glass Steagall repeal, 2008 bank bailout, SLABS imploding the economy, illegitimate Supreme Court, RBG and Pelosi holding onto power until they are literal corpses, 6 million dead civilians in the Middle East, 200,000 dead Palestinians, women’s and LGBT rights being stripped away with literally zero federal pushback, committing state sponsored terrorism on Cuba for a century, the list goes on forever.

    All done with wholehearted and enthusiastic DNC complicity.
