The government forcing you to relax and have fun, or else, is wonderfully absurd. Feels like a paradox to be honest.

Our government doesn't care about us beyond how much value we can produce for the Oligarchs. The exception being certain natural disasters. Even then, how much they care is dependent on whether it gets national coverage, or international coverage.

Yup. I wasn't old enough to vote, but I remember him being mocked for it. There's even a South Park episode about him.

I still think Jr. stole the 2000 election. There's just too many coincidences. He just happened to win a tight recount in the state controlled by his brother? Yea, sure... ๐Ÿ˜‘

Not to mention the Brooks Brothers riot that has paralles to the current wave of people trying to stop vote counts when they start losing.

The 'what-if's?' are endless.

That data is almost meaningless since governments at all levels stopped recording and reporting pandemic data. Of course things will look like they've gotten better if you just pretend the problem doesn't exist.

It's an infant's solution to the crisis. Covid went away because our leaders decided object permanence is for losers.

Good! We need more nuclear now more than ever.

What's old is new again. New red scare, same as the old red scare.

Fear mongering about an other you don't understand is as American as apple pie. ๐Ÿ˜‘

Can someone explain what homologation is? Is that some sort of newfangled alpha testing phase?
