  • Once you are a billionaire, you get a nationally broadcast pizza party on CSPAN and we engrave your name into a plaque in some “hall of smart winners” somewhere in DC. You are declared a champion of the economy and the President shakes your hand and declares a one-time national day to be in your honor. Or they read your name during the superbowl that year or whatever. Your place in history is locked in.

    No, you've won the game so you start over with zero dollars on level 2 (someone breaks one of your legs to make it harder).

  • I find this opposition to DEI somewhat perverse since to my mind it has mostly been a tool to add some limited legitimacy to a cruel system devoid of humanity; it was there to wash away the more obvious biases of an unjust system.

    To my mind to remove DEI is to accelerate the collapse of the West. It seems counterintuitive to me that the people who are pushing for this seem to be the ones with the most to lose from it.

  • I think it's ironic that Trump and Musk are trying to implement the kind of shock that might wake someone up and bring them around. If nothing else, they are making clear the absurdity of Government and the contradiction that we call democracy. I think there's something hideously ironic there.

    But that is not to say that I deny the pain and suffering of those who suffer from any kind of disability.

  • I think this is because Trump realised that we're all disabled. We're all disabled by the social norms and conditioning that surround us. No one is intrinsically disabled; we are only made to suffer disability by the unreasonable expectations placed upon us from outside.

    Trump it taking us one step closer towards waking up.
