Modern vehicles piss me off. You can't find a stripped down version of a modern car. It has to have all the bells and whistles. Camera for backing up, sensors for the tires, sensors for the seat belt, built in GPS, built in computer that requires specialized equipment to fix, etc. My dad and mom bought new Ford Explorers and F150s and had to take them into the dealership to get repeatedly fixed within the first couple months. I have come to the conclusion I will never buy an American vehicle again, sadly enough.
The 80s died in the early 90s when rock started dying and the action movie was destroyed. The 90s died when the twin towers fell. The 00s were the beginning of the end for American culture, and their death occurred when Obama became president. Trump was merely a brief slowing down of the boiling frog but with him gone the 10s are back on schedule with a complete lack of creativity and the death of all cultural icpns.
Capitalism appears to have failed as a system, just as communism and socialism has failed (albeit in a different and less gruesome manner and over a longer time frame). Perhaps a new system needs to be produced, or the west can go back to an older model of society. Bring back the values of Christendom or forge something new. Unfortunately, I don't think the modern west has enough intelligent people to choose either path.
I am like that too. I think it is also how lonely modern life is, especially for people trying to move up in the world and moving around for jobs. I have been told repeatedly coworkers are not your friends, but when you spend 40 to 60 hours a week with them it is hard not to slip up and say things you shouldn't. I am trying to move back to my family's area to help mitigate this.
So, how bad will the vaccine side effects actually be for the west? Some right wingers seem to think there will be a mass die off or mass amount of side effects over the course of decades of those who took the fake vaccines. I think that is wishful thinking on the dissidents' part, but it is clear that the fake vaccinnes have harmful side effects and didn't do jack shit to stop the overrated flu. There seems to be a great deal of debate on how bad the fake vaccines will be on various dissident sites, including Jim's blog and Unz.
Out of curiosity, I read some quick summaries on him but I am not sure what you are talking about. For the sake of historical knowledge, what controversy are you referring to? Him being possibly of bastard birth?
