  • How can a capitalist country have a national health service?

  • Whilst dissent event is catchier than mass public incident the fact that it includes petitioning through official channels makes it a meaningless number. It's like measuring the health of a democracy by measuring voter turn out.

  • There are Irish republicans who refuse to swear allegiance to the king/ queen and are unable to take their seats in Westminster. This doesn't trigger a by-election though.

    • 4B in the US anyone?

  • Trump's foreign policy is preferable to Kemala's. If Kemala wants people to vote for her she should pursue better policies.

  • I've played it a couple of times and it didn't make much of an impression on me but I'm not a huge fan of social deduction.

  • It's interesting that they went bovine when India is one of the largest consumers of rice but Hindus don't eat beef. Chicken or fish would be more universal.
