In China, they've been so upended by automation that they're paying former factory workers to dig ditches and do other menial labor while tractors and bucket loaders sit idle.

nah all those tech freaks overpaying to live in SF will move out to palatial cabins in the mountains where there are humble-brag swank ski resorts so they still have access tony takeout but be back at one with nature

I don’t know how anybody who has lived in both rural and urban America believes that the tech crowd could do anything other than vacation 50 miles from an urban center. You might see 30,000 flee, out of millions. Enough to justify some Bloomberg and New York Times articles. But the rest would quickly become bored to death.

but they love to hike and bike

and none of them have sex anyway

Most people don't even need to work

prostitution will become big

people will still need flesh

I’m just saying it’s hard to predict such things

Nobody would have guessed that emperor palpatine would look less and less realistically old while also being played by the same man for 40 years. But it happened. Sometimes chaos is truth.

i know rural red state is boring af

but a man can dream

we need to identify a low population red state

build up a little potemkin village with laser tag and a starbucks

attract 1,000,000 WFH techies

and take their 2 senate seats

I can hook a man up with reliable sources of untraceable firearms and city-scale fireworks in South Dakota.

I guess also two people who always have drugs but it’s not the good drugs.

Three people I guess

If Trump wins the election this year, he will absolutely try to get rid of term limits in four years

Yep. But he won't get anywhere. Conservatives love term limits, as do Democrats. Only his less-informed base would rally around the idea, while moderates and leftists alike would battle his effort.

Also -- deja vu. Didn't we already talk about this?

Trump won't live into his 80s. It could clear a path for queen for life Ivanka I guess, but does he care about that? He can't fuck her if he's dead.

Yes, and Ruddo even made the comment that Obama could run again if term limits were done away with.

lol ruddo is going senile

Jesus Christ I did argue that. I just went full Biden in here

Let's move into a home together and be like the Grumpy Old Men, their hi-jinx were hilarious!

Can't wait to see the memes PHATJ makes about you. Have you ever come within 5 feet of a woman who's under the age of 35? He'll be calling you a pedophile before the week is over.

Well it's a good thing conservatives have held their moral ground on important issues since Trump came into office.
