I mean, they also clearly didn't consider the fact that MV is a summer vacation spot for the rich; the people there now are just like... regular people. You didn't dump them on Obama's front lawn in front of him; you dumped them on some guy who runs the Clam Shack from Memorial Day to Labor Day and a snow plow business from December to February.

It's interesting for me, I'm closer to my parents now than when I was younger not because I moved right but because my parents moved left. At least one of them has expressed a desire for complete universal loan forgiveness and a UBI.

A lot of the kind of people who start a business aren't starting a business because they like running a subway or a phone repair place or whatever. They're doing it because they want to be the boss, and part of being the boss is being able to deny people money.

Nenonen posted:Roads were much safer back then because everyone just assumed that all other drivers were drunk, so they were more careful in traffic. Ah yes, the "Bike helmets cause more fatalities" argument. I get that there's a large chance you're being facetious, but it's an argument that comes up fairly regularly, and is somewhat annoying every time; the safety equivalent of "If you get a raise you'll get bumped into the next tax bracket and *lose* money".

LonsomeSon posted:The tax bracket thing is so hosed. A regular-rear end person can be forgiven for not easily understanding safety statistics but you can just read how the tax brackets work and no longer be a rube. It’s not, like, obfuscated or anything, it’s part of the basic structure. I think a lot of it, to  , is that capital wants people to think it's true because it makes it sound like denying a raise is beneficent instead of cruel.

You also see this kind of talk around Daytime Running Lights: for various reason, our brain processes lit thing faster than it processes unlit things, but if you ask certain types of people, it's a conspiracy by the headlight, car, battery, or alternator manufacturers to wear out certain parts faster.

Smash cut to that coworker, dumping his computer in the bathtub. That's how I want my browsing habits to be destroyed, for sure.

My read of it is that it's a somewhat old saw about mufflers on cars being emmasculating. So the instruction is that instead of getting gender affirming bottom surgery, you should cut the muffler off your car to make it louder, and therefore more manly.

It's the same sort of logic as "Facts don't care about your feelings"; "I'm a being of pure logic and reason, therefore any conclusion I come to/anything I say that you're offended by is your weakness, not mine". It's the same kind of "I just tell harsh truths" bullshit.
