They believe that the status quo is better than any alternatives. They have not been exposed to other ways of living and those that have lock themselves to basic tribalistic thinking.
Imagine trying to get a sports fan to see the benefits of being a fan of another sports team. Even if they aren’t personally playing and their team isn’t winning they maintain loyalty. Some even bet on their loser teams and lose money just because of loyalty.
It’s all about team loyalty/ tribalism
Mercury makes you insane before you die. He’d likely start a nuclear war, and then die.

Everyone who argues online does it for its own sake.
If you don’t hold the position that Porco Ross is a good movie in spite of its sexism because of the era it was made, then you should not have responded as you did.
In 2024 the movie is not good and I don’t care about how good it was in the year it came out.
I don’t give a Fuck if I’m not fair to a movie. It’s a movie. It exists to entertain. I can’t be entertained if I’m distracted by obvious flaws.
I understand critical theory, and there are lessons to be learned from any piece of media. But real life isn’t film school. Racism sucks, sexism sucks, it is valid to say that movies that contain these also suck.
That doesn’t mean I can’t criticize it, or other movies that don’t match the modern standards.
Well damn, I guess Birth of a Nation gets a pass on it’s racism because it was made in 1915.
If it wasn’t so sexist I might agree with it being a good movie.
Because it’s art.
There is a lot of skill and artistic talent needed to create a facsimile of real life. Anyone can draw a tree, but a realistic tree takes some amount of artistic knowledge. The more realistic the more talent that the artist shows. Similarly, when the artist deviates from recreating real life it shows an artistic vision beyond reality.
We like art because it shows a different perspective from the minds eye of the artist. And when the artist can render that vision as something that looks real, even if it couldn’t really exist, it is impressive.

CD-R, rewriting has a higher chance to corrupt. And if you like your music you won’t need to overwrite it
I’m more of the opinion that it should be a height/ weight thing. Or a performance based analysis e.g. you could make sprinter tiers for people within a few seconds of each other based on personal averages. I mean this sort of system already exists for making leagues and tiers right now, we just also split by sex.
That one is on the identified list
“I have been wounded by an empty blue barrel. Captain, you must kill me.”
The us has a large scale train system (for freight.) the key will be to convince people who currently drive trucks (vehicles used to move freight) that trains are bigger and more phallic and thus a better method of compensation.

Grandpa Wookiee watching vr porn is something no one should have to witness
Not just America. People who want power always seek it. I have yet to see a proposed system that could eliminate the ability to gain and abuse power.
Ok, so I’m supposed to move when they build this new transit?With what money?
There’s a company making a new version called retro sours. They are available online or at Cracker Barrel when in stock.
