Yeah but almost every American I meet here traveling in SEA or Europe is a perfectly reasonable person.
Dunno I just am in such disbelief that my world experience doesn’t match reality at all. I even consider myself pretty well traveled with 20 years of experience traveling around the globe though admittedly I’ve never been to the USA yet and I fear I might not get to see Yellowstone or Big Sur ever at this point or do I even want to?
Kinda sucks to be a fan of US now ngl.
That’s what I gather from his wiki and some chatgpt queries. Never heard of him before (not an american) but honestly — I’m a big fan now.
US is system is so bad. The constant pandering to “founding fathers” as if it’s even possible to have strong enough vision that it would last 200+ years and refusal to innovate past the ridiculous two party system is just sad tbh.
Yet nothing will change because you can’t change these things without a revolution apparently.
Yeah but basically everyone I follow from podcasters to tech developers are all non-idiots and I assume their following are also mostly non-idiots. Where are all of these idiots hiding? The contrast between US soft power export and actual average americans is colossal.
Why are americans so stupid and yet manage to export so much smart stuff from tech to podcasts to scientists. Is it some sort of dystopia where 1% rules, 20% live in a bubble and 79% are just brain dead idiots?
I understand and wishing you strength with this 🙏
You can basically live indefinitely in the SEA with US passport (Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia). Find a in a nice liberal bubble with loads of other foreigners as long as you can make 2,000 usd/mo you’ll be quite comfy and free here.
I’ve long given up on being part of the core society and embraced the life in a bubble. It’s pretty awesome! Feel free to message me if you have any questions :)
I disagree, this flip-flop logic is what drags down the movement and allows “no billionaires except the ones I like” idea to poison the public discourse. If we collectively stick to a unified view we have much more power in changing things.
The point is that there is no “better ones”. The billionaire should not be socially acceptable concept ever. Full stop.
nah million USD isn’t as much money as it used to be. That’s a house and couple of cars in more expensive countries. Though, personally 1 million USD net worth would be more than enough for me and my family.
Why should I restrict my limited lifetime on contributing pennies to solving this issue when there are mountains of gold right there doing nothing? I’m not bending over backwards unless the big ones bend with me — pretty fair stance to take, right?
Why is “death for billionaires” so taboo though? Clearly they’re damaging our society much more than a single murderer or marijuana carrier and yet we have no problem accepting that these people should be punished socially but if you mention guillotines for billionaires then suddenly you’re an extremist.
Try mentioning this to Tailor Swift fans and you’ll get immediately crucified. We should normalize the idea that THERE ARE NO ETHICAL BILLIONAIRES. Period.
It’s a staggering amount of wealth that allows to do shit like this and why do we tolerate this is will be eternally confusing to me.
Not only is this an issue of equality but it’s a social issue as well. People stop taking public responsibility issues like pollution or climate change seriously because “if private jets are legal then why should I do anything?”.
Lots of non-answers but to clarify - yes but no comments.
Sometimes a login wall might block you but if you refresh a couple of times it should work.
no invite and I’ve been on the waitlist since it’s been announced :(
That’s exactly what will happen.
Fun idea but it’s just a 2 page design document.
Imagine going into an economical agreement with Russia lmao
I fear the price point on this will not be able to compete with just getting a new SteamDeck OLED
Yes I’m perfectly familiar with “survivors bias” but never seen it so extreme.
