The whole idea of the world being illusion, now via tech, was old to me and I think that was the big reveal to most, so this was easily one step beyond what was being told on the surface.

the fact that most cis people to this day do not understand that the matrix is an overt, on the nose, trans allegory is a great metaphor for *gestures*
subtext is for cowards i guess?

One Patriot missile buys 150 Iranian drones. The cost asymmetry in this war is staggering.

Why can't I buy Fritos in the supermarket.
They've all had Doritos for over a decade, but no Fritos. Made by the same company.
But good luck buying some of the British Frito Lay stuff in the USA

I mean the moral argument is dumb but farm workers and their unions absolutely have a prerogative to organize against this and at least make it expensive to be replaced
Itβs the same exact deal as the OG luddites, whose reputation has improved somewhat of late. Like the mechanical looms were better
if the choice is between a bunch of farmers and the techno-oligarchs i think i know which one i am choosing
farmers are a yesteryear political threat. the tech types are a today/tomorrow problem
I don't think you have a moral right to continue doing a job inefficiently

I was hiding my transsexuality as far back as I can remember. I've been suicidal almost as long; since I was 8yo I seriously considered suicide.
Nobody ever told me it was okay to even be effeminate!
They see transsexuality as the highest level of queer & are only now trying to bargain for "less".
