And this post is an example of a poster who voted for the party complicit in creating the current situation expressing their feeling of moral superiority.

Voting democrat is voting for a longer fuse. Problem is the longer the fuse the bigger the bomb. Or you do what you actually need to do to fix this situation. Do what you should have done decades ago which is not vote democrat.

No.

Implicit in the act of voting is the giving of consent. The fact that you have not received the education to understand this simple fact is indicative of how democracy has failed. It requires an educated populace.

You are giving consent when you vote. You are saying this choice is fine.

Maybe America is at a point where voting is not the solution. How are things now compared to when the American revolution happened?

Edit - people downvote this but 'voting for the lesser of two evils' is. What. Has. Got. You. Here.

While all getting richer on massive government contracts paid for by other people's tax.

(Actually I don't know about Buffett. Musk's wealth being built on government money is well known. Amazon staff on food stamps constitutes government welfare on a massive scale, never mind the inducements Amazon get for placing distribution centres in whichever district etc etc etc.)

Is there a bigger red flag than a message on it saying 'if you break this seal you can't sue us!'

If it worked people would be on board. It doesn't.

It is used as a means to justify a catastrophic business as usual so fuck them.

It isn't haunting him much. These stories appear designed to placate, deflect anger. Don't be fooled by them.

Uber thought they were going to 1. undercut taxi drivers pay, then 2. be in prime position to get rid of drivers when one of their mates in silicon valley solved driverless cars.

That didn't happen so they are forced to be a taxi company dealing with unionised staff and local regulations and shite. Long may they have the real world to deal with, mired in anti-tech administration of human beings while their mates have moved on to undercutting white collar office workers en-masse with large language models as unsuited to the task as their crap self driving cars were unsuited to getting rid of drivers.

And so is extinction! Nothing more natural than extinction: pretty much every species ever evolved has gone extinct or is on its way now!

Human ingenuity is a hell of a thing, but it isn't impossible for us too. I don't feet it ir reasonable to put human extinction on the table now, but if we burn all known fossil fuel reserves it is, maybe if we continue on our current trajectory into 2100 it will be.
