I'm not doing the burning. I don't plan to vote if my values and principles won't be represented. How could I possibly have any blame for what others are doing? Blues have a historical political advantage and they treat it as a means to get away with fucking people over harder than they would in normal times. If they want to needlessly make it a zero sum game then that's the game we'll have to play.

My local politicians represent the issues I care about well. I emailed the white house saying they need to do the same if they want to earn my vote. I'd rather watch it all burn down than take another fucking step towards all housing owned by corporations.

They leaned their strategy pretty hard into mining when that was on the table. They for sure chase trends and alienate their base. Any way to juice near term profits and they will. It's working out for them right now, so surely it will forever.

Don't forget:

When you're told the economy is doing great this is what they mean. It's a bad message to send in an election year.

The converse is that SEO spam has become better at the game than google, despite google's best efforts. It's a less comfortable thought because how could a bunch of unorganized distributed actors out compete the one of the world's richest company at their bread and butter game. The alternative is that one of the world's richest companies gave up playing their bread and butter game.

They're smart to balance their checkbooks on the way out. They never let any opportunity to consume go to waste.

This was many years ago. The itching didn't happen immediately. Good advice to not take medical advice in social media comments.

I burn $4500 every month and have little choice given work locations. Most of the units are empty and the corporate landlords are colluding to fix prices. I'm a single issue voter on affordable housing.
