I guess I'm just too pessimistic to be able to allow my brain to accept that your way can happen. Maybe it's because I'm a lefty living in deep red country and I see the crazy all around me still flying the trump flags and loving what he's doing.
I hope your vision comes true, I genuinely do. And if it starts to pick up momentum I'll join in, but I just don't see it working on ultra maga people I interact with on a daily basis, at least not yet.
Nintendo, isn't that the law firm with a game console side business?
Oh that's a good one!
Well in my defense I was a young kid and I was left unattended so I could be indoctrinated by the media to believe cooperation was happening.
I just want to try and find a peaceful way to bring about change, because I fear the only way to make things better will be us having to suffer though a bloody civil war and decades of domestic terrorism from the losers.
The Streisand effect, the best free promotion you can ask for.
Yeah, that's it! (Drops)
Ugh, the updates.....my work PC is Win 11, I got an email from IT last night telling me I had to install the latest update I had been putting off. This morning after I clocked out I started the update. I have 500 down and it took almost 2 hours to download and 3 hours later the installation is only at 53%. I'm just going to go to bed and hope it's done by the time I have to clock in tonight.
And my coworkers wonder why I prefer Linux.....
That is a totally viable method, it's just not the one I want to pursue.
Also, yeah I don't even want to think about the taxes....
I honestly don't think even bold leadership would work at this point. Washington has spent so much time brainwashing the public to fear socialism that any bold leader on the left who suggests a plan like that without first kneecapping it would be killed in the polls because someone on the right would scream socialist and enough of the population would turn on them. And no amount of reminding the public about public roads, police, firefighters, libraries, ect. would change their minds. In my option it will take generational change to get past that mindset.
I guess I'm just stuck in the 90's mindset of trying to find compromise. I know that idea was on the decline then, but I still, maybe foolishly, hold on to it.
I could put on an Aerosmith record before I knew how to put my Disney VHS tapes in the VCR, of course then my older cousin brought over her Master of Puppets album and I fell in love with thrash. As she still likes to remind me, "I turned you into a metal head before you were out of diapers". I still love the classics too BTW.

Not with that attitude you can't.
