If Trump drops dead from being old, bully for us. If Biden drops dead but Trump doesn't we are fucked. That is the issue and risk. That is why we want a younger candidate. Why take the risk when you can avoid i?

Potentially, the labor and skill involved in the production. While speculation does play a part, so does the rarity, difficulty of production, & skill needed in the creation of the art. You may argue whether that justifies the price, but at least there is labor and material evidence, while stocks and property don't necessarily need any real evidence of value to be valued, especially in our current economic climate.

My fear is Biden drops dead but Trump doesn't. It's the main reason I want an younger candidate. Like if Trump died no prob, if both died, or just Biden dies it presents a dangerous opportunity for Republicans to grab power. Theses guys are really old and can drop dead any day and we don't need the unnecessary risk.

Not really. They use Ivy League schools more for making connections with other wealthy people and getting jobs through those connections than actually learning anything.

We can. Our justice system and politics on the other hand seems hell bent not to.

From what I gather, there is a real fear in develper spaces that executives will take the wrong lessons from BG3. They will want the same scope, choice, narrative, & mechanics but through crunch, shutting down smaller projects, & homogenized visual & narrative focus. IE all the shiny bits without the time, work culture, & creativity that came with creating BE3. It isn't developers just being pissy this is their way of trying to stop their idiot boss from ruining their current project or making massive projects without enough time or staff.

I agree, but given that police have tried to charge Cop City protesters with terrorism we need to be really careful and scrutinize any new laws designed to stop these groups and how it may be intentionally or unintentionally harmful to littigamate activism and protest.
