In the first place I think a better way to establish “is life in this given place good”, would be to address to good vs bad in that place, as opposed to the good in that place vs the bad everywhere else.

If you must make the point through comparisons, using the weakest possible arguments while standing in for the opposing side makes it seem you’ve either want to misrepresent it, or don’t feel secure enough in your position.

I could get into the factual claims that could be challenged but maybe that was the AI. There’s absolutely an argument that Western media and cultures create intense, xenophobic biases, but there are more compelling ways to make it.

Using a one-sided narrative to counter a one-sided narrative comes off as disingenuous to me. Despite Marx’s urging, the US turns out to be the place where a worker can strike with his union and own a gun.

It feels like they turned an article about this weird rape game into a Netflix ad.

Making the same joke about the senator will result in the FBI breaking down your door. Funny how that works.

Hypothetically what if the actual counties and states in question didn’t elect governors, senators, and a president that was Republican, because in reality they did? Hypothetically? What if?

He’ll toss them a few subsidies like last time and secure their vote for the third term.

That’s the plan they voted for. They deserve what they get.

The people that can afford these places deserve to lose money to arbitrage anyway, it’s not a priority for any legitimate government.

4100+ is a good start, they voted for it after all. With any luck automation will follow.

It’s not all that far-fetched: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBTQ_rights_in_the_Caribbean

No prizes for guessing the outcome

Somehow it’s less stunning and brave when it’s a governor whose electorate isn’t out of step with him on doing the right thing.

kW/kWh aren’t commonly used outside of electrical applications in the US, so people are less readily able to quantify and compare in other contexts. Looking at a variety of natural gas companies’ bills, you’ll get volume multiplied by a therm factor instead of simply using kWh; horsepower for not just cars but even electrical motors and pumps.

I think the average person will have looked at their electricity bill and put the basics together about watts and watt hours. As for comparison with natural gas, I think he didn’t touch on the real metric people then turn to- cost. Depending on the state it can be much cheaper to use gas vs electricity.

Harsh but true. When you take away those that actively supports the regime, then those that are apathetic, that’s well over half the population. A present day Boston tea party would mostly result in mass anger over sweet tea availability.

Then those few that remain may not want to risk getting their skulls cracked, legally run over and declared terrorists by the institutions they’re asking to change. It simply doesn’t leave the critical mass necessary to have thousands in the streets.

Use your words, if you can.

I’m interested to hear from someone that will disprove this, surely there are good examples given the voting on this.
