Yeah, sure, anonymous. We all know that must be Dean Takahashi.

That is not theory, China is the source of mass produced fentanyl. As for "Thinning" a population, I don't think that quite works. But look at it from another angle: producing hundreds of pounds of fentanyl and shipping it to cartels just by itself covers all of their costs. But, if it can generate costs (policing/jail/rehab/property loss), which are all provable just from public records on the US economy, they have then basically carried out economic sabotage at no cost. So population wise or geostrategic wise, it may not have huge impact, but the cost of opioid addiction already topped 1T as a comparison Huawei is worth 180B. So I am very convinced economic sabotage is the angle they are after, the incentive is just too strong.

Once we entered into the digital age that is undoubted true. A processor works on the same computing rules no matter what it is used for. Most of the arms manufacturers cannot make all of the chips types they need so they have to be contracted. It it not so much as gaming computing is Q/A, but that the manufacturing and Q/A processes perfected for commercial releases can be further tuned up to make chips for aerospace/military applications. Typically such use will select for the most flawless chips, having a such contracts that often don't depend on the economic cycle then enables the fabs a buffer for their bottom line. So the part where they become intertwined is not necessarily a knowledge relationship, but a money/capacity relationship (like most things).

It is the "For your own good" of our time, dumbed further down for the approval seeking tards that thinks a head pat from the government is a good thing.

Shimoneta's story is kind of prescient as well. How not just purity but degrees of lesser purity are punishable is basically how the woke mob sees the world. That and the pro-authoritarian side lacks any humor and can only see things with their confirmation bias built in, are all a symptom of our times. In an ideal world that anime should just be simple entertainment that does not reflect on society at all.

Just like the fools driving the culture revolution thinking it is all going swimmingly until the struggle session mob came for them.

Yup, mRNA vaccines are the medical equivalent of the Afghan debacle, run on a cost plus model paid out to the pharma companies. There is no money in simple, logistical scalable treatment, but never ending profit for quagmire.

The left only talks about universality when it comes time to round people up for their votes and money. Afterward, it is all about drawing increasing narrow circles. First it was with all "allies", then the "woke" then the "proletariat" then the "intelligentsia". Now in China its the 3rd generation commie party members that are hoarding power and money for themselves, that is how the system ends up. Talk is talk but the left was never for any universal system because at the end they want a subjective system of power.

"Embarrassing"

That is something like the CCP would say. Of all the cultural influences coming in from the CCP the "face" culture is the worst. Personality of the petty tyrants will do anything to gain power, and once they have power everything they do is to preserve their own face. The endless wokeist power struggle and censorship all flow from that.

They probably don't matter. This part of the announcement is for the headlines for domestic partisan consumption.

His tweets are just completely parasitic for engagement. I think all these assumptions about him making social commentary and being a boomer...etc are reading too deep. Isn't it more likely that he just wants to temporarily leverage his "expertise" to get back on air as a talking head? and if he is lucky getting advance on a slim sub-200 page book deal? Just old man looking for a payday. I doubt he even has any genuine opinions anymore.

The way it is talked about seems to imply these fragile creatures are going to get second hand PTSD and would try to not share the info.

Makes you wonder if it is trauma they are avoiding? or simply avoiding bad news while Biden is keeping his seat warm.
