I think that’s exactly what one would be hoping for. One does this to escape the reality of human civilization and seek the adventure of building it over again.

Love it!

You already have downhill longboarders going 80kmh+. They wear full body armour, and I would hazard the same would be recommended here. It’s not for everyone, but some people like speed and danger.

It’s even worse. Christians fight hard to make hell on earth a reality so they can live for ever in peace in make believe land when they are no longer living?! Make it make sense.

Good luck chumps. We have single purchaser power, get bent!

There’s a real simple solution here, avoid going ng to US institutions if you are planning to study abroad. Plenty of good schools out there, go to one where you can be free to express yourself.

I know people who have reinvented themselves and left the past behind, and I know people who have reinvented themselves and carried on with their legal names. Depends on the person and the setting. To each their own.

Maybe, but I sound pretty American coming from the west coast of Canada?

Most of them invest heavily in defence contractors. I hope they suffer dearly. And they will, they will.

Except he is using a playbook built by other people that we’ve only seen the gist of. This is manufactured, not eventual. He is also removing all consumer and worker protections. There is more too it, but keep turning a blind eye to just “more of the same” and see where that gets ya. I am saying the same thing as you, but I am alluding to it being a byproduct and not the simple end goal. They want housing under their thumb as well as worker protections and healthcare. There is malicious intent there, I’m sure of it. It is more than the accumulation of wealth.

Nope. I like my toast done on both sides.

Time will tell. It’s all about the layers, but if you look at the current situation at face value, it makes very little sense, ergo something more sinister is a foot 3-4 steps down the road.

IMO there is something more at work here. I believe he is collapsing the economy on purpose and evaporating everyone’s savings, forcing them back into the labour force under any means. They want to go back to factory towns where workers have zero agency and are at the mercy of their employers. That is the end goal here, the rest of it is just the hand waving show to keep everyone distracted.

If he wanted us to care, he should try using empathy. He went in the opposite direction and now reaps what he has sown.

I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien. I’m an Englishman in New York

It’s because those orgs have been captured by their enemies, people that don’t want to help. They blame the people that need the services as being leeches, but they are the ones getting paid to fail at their jobs. They don’t want to see it succeed, they want it to fail so they can say how bad the system is.

Boy this guy can’t read a room, eh? Looks like cons will continue to sink by sticking with buzz words rather than actual substance.

America does not recognize peaceful protest. They are calling them terrorists. Act accordingly.

So are the rich. Let’s make sure we take out the right problems.

From the guy gleefully gutting the financial lives of millions of Americans and freezing their social mobility. Cry me a river.
