While they gaslight the right into thinking there's "no babbies"
Dude never heard of time zones.
Probably a bit of both.
Which would be leading people into temptation. A big no-no.
I remember seeing a thing on Japan and robots about 20 years ago or so, and the fucking CBC interviewer said something about "If you need more workers, why not let in third world immigrants?" The look on the lady's face was priceless, like she just sniffed a rotting corpse but was still trying to be polite, and she said "We would rather have robots".
Rimworld could probably be fun with some kind of Chat-GPT running the little comments the pawns make (I use Speech Bubbles mod).
If they want to update the Church, they should just LET PRIESTS BE MARRIED, so the priesthood stops attracting sexual invalids
French, my ass.
Well, if enough Jews get attacked, they might just decide to change the narrative re: "islamophobia bad".
They'll also try to tell you that Disney "just decided" to put Song of the South in its vaults for good. "Just decided to." No mention of how they were PRESSURED to, by nobrains who don't understand what a sharecropper is.
Never heard of the Anarchist's Cookbook, have you?
TV used to at least occasionally teach you useful things, like your numbers and letters, or how to do an emergency tracheotomy ...
In the fourth one it's interesting that Forky's creator intended him to be a toy, but he kept insisting he was trash, and had to come to terms with being a toy like everyone else clearly saw him as ...
There's good reasons Gaia forbade their creation ...
The idea that things can only get so big before they die is a truism that seems to have gotten lost on humanity.
That goes for out of control populations, too.
I thought that was some AI crap .... I mean, the sausages are cooked, but the hamburgers are raw?
Also, didn't any of his apartments have balconies?
"When Will You Rage?"
It probably fell by the wayside because it conflicts with the "Earthlings don't use money" concept.
There was also that bit in TNG where Riker was rubbing superior human morality in the face of a vaguely lupinish alien who was bitching about the replicated food, and then in Picard he's bragging about killing critters to make pizza with. Another case of "it's OK if it's humans doing it, but if something beastly does it, it's evil".
I always figured that it was the ultimate garbage recycler. Takes garbage, breaks it down into atoms/molecules, and then rebuilds those particles into whatever it is you want - a guitar or an ice cream sundae. That would totally explain the "utopia" that they supposedly experience.
What gets me is, if they have that, why does Picard have a commercial-sized vinyard? Sure, I could see people growing stuff for "real food", but you'd only need - and be able to work - so much. If you wanted help, you'd have to search out people who are willing to be paid in wine, and well, then you've got a goddamn commune, but you're not going to be able to sell to anyone outside of said commune (not like you'd need to.) And really, you can get a lot of wine out of a standard back yard (of the sort I grew up with, anyway, lots of Italians grew their own grapes. Us kids used to cruise the alleys to nick anything growing outside of a fence ...)
Well, speciesist.
If a right is natural, then all species have it, regardless of form or intelligence.
I swear I flipped on Disco and saw robots. One of the things about Trek is that it wasn't a robot-heavy vision of the future; Data and Lore were meant to be exceptional. They never really explained why, as far as I know; out of universe, I feel it's because Asimov had such a lock on Robot sci-fi at the time Roddenberry made Trek. That, and the budget likely wouldn't allow for that drastic of a costume/puppet.
Throwing in robots just shows that they didn't give a shit about Trek, they just wanted their own generic gay sci-fi to sully the Trek name.
But that 95% generally didn't include beloved franchises; and when it was, that franchise DIED. Entire studios died over one or two stinkers. Orion, Tristar, where art thou?
And now I need to see that movie, that clip was hilarious.
And that's basically what we got from the Youth Movement.
People under 30 of either sex never used to be given any nevermind by the adults running things.
I ask the same thing when they come to Canada.
Especially those fucking Tamils who could've gone 15 fucking miles to their homeland in India.
One thing I noticed about (genuine) retards is that they have an inability to keep quiet; they always need to be making noises with their mouths.
Cities have been driving humans insane for generations, and they don't even understand that they are being driven nuts by constant crowding - they just say it's a good thing and demand MORE crowding.
The Mouse Utopia experiments are what is happening now.
Gen X here, too.
When visiting a great-uncle and aunt's horse farm that they had on mostly-wooded 100 acres (yep), we were kept away from the "crick" by being told there was "quicksand" there. Dunno about that, but there WAS some sucking mud that nearly stole a cousin's shoe when we realized we'd gotten too close to said "crick". Oh, the panic, lol.
That waterfall scene in Christopher Robin really did hit home, ha. That dangerous "crick" was probably no deeper and wider than that.
