To be fair, it continues on to say that there is no monopoly money in those boxes, but real dollars so those kids can continue to invent.

If you want to go down the nerd rabbit hole, here is her patent on it. I was a patent examiner and one of our early training exercises to get used to patent practices was to look at that and compare it to the later patent issued for the Monopoly board game to see if the later patent should've been allowed in light of her earlier disclosure.

Not only that, it was about how much capitalism sucks and is stupid, and the game was deliberately no fun.

They kept the "deliberately no fun" part, and yet people seem to keep buying it and playing it...

Even better almost everyone cheats/house rules to make it better by making it less brutally capitalist which simultaneously minimizes the "educational" effect and proves the need for it

There's a couple deliberate improvements to make it board gamey and less capitalism misery. A stock rules monopoly game played by people who want to win takes like 20-40 minutes.

Most Monopoly misery comes from half assed social policy to protect the poor players long enough to act as sacks of money to punch by rich players. Hmmm, still a great learning experience game.

It's super dumb, but I can't stop myself. This is just kind of how I do things.
I think one of the best happenings with regard to that misogynist bullshit was the guy who ran some oil rig parts company posting a video of him using the parts on the drill, all covered in mud and shirtless, with a bunch of "women can't do this" posts surrounding it (and maybe directly from him). The best response was a video of a woman doing the same job, wearing full PPE, with the message (paraphrased) "I do this every day, and I do it without the OSHA violations"

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Yeah iirc it was the owner and yeah he was not someone who normally did the work. I think they were tweets but good lord I can't imagine searching for them anymore
