  • Agreed, they need to constantly be in control of the narrative in order to maintain their sanity. Because as you said the true historical record disgusts them. It reminds them of how they are pathetic failures who can't get anything done, never have gotten anything done, and that progress is actually achieved in spite of them instead of because of them.

    Hear me out, apartments and hallway are arranged on the outside like a rectangular donut. Inside of the donut, space for activities:

    • floor 1: gym with no windows
    • floor 2: art space with no windows
    • floor 3: pool with no windows
    • floor 4: um little library with cozy couches but no windows!
    • floor 5: lil movie theater
    • floor 6: empty space this is the austerity floor :(
    • floor 7: another gym with no windows!

    It can go like that on repeat.

    I've heard from those formerly in city planning that many of these offices were built with tax incentives over retail or housing space to promote high income job growth. If there is a real estate bubble, it's gonna be in the commercial space. They're even trying to spin in the article that newly builts or renovations can save you. :cope:

    Such a shame, we could have had more apartments in place of these desolate office buildings to offset the rise in cost of living. But that sort of thing would require communist thoughts such as "planning for the future of your city."

    I looked up the vid and there's a lot of people in the comments dunking saying they're women and under diagnosis of autism is a problem, which leads to the higher number of male identifying individuals getting diagnosed, which leads to researchers looking for reasons why that is that isn't the misdiagnosis problem.

    As for the connection to Second Thought, he used to do pop science vids before the whole communism thing on the same channel. Many of his subs are still from that period, so the Youtube algo put 2 and 2 together and suggested this other pop science channel to you.






  • Dune is not set on an earth desert, it's set on a planet where water is literally imported from offworld. It's a fierce inhospitable planet with more in common with mars than with Arizona or Arabia. The people wear utilitarian stillsuits that collect piss and sweat to convert back to water.
