Isn't the US leading the world in AI? How else will the world access chatbots that make confidently make shit up?
So the only people going to the Dunkin's in the office building are office workers. If we don't go back, that Dunkin's could go out of business. Is that something we can really allow on our collective conscience?
constantly comparing themselves to empires.
Good thing empires never fall, right?
The common knowledge among those interested in the history is that Britain insitutionalized and entrenched caste in an administrative framework that never before existed in India.
They generally saw their colonial subjects as tools for financial gain and wished they could stay out of the messy sociologic aspects of how different people may relate to each other. On a more fundamental level, they didn't see them as people.
They also implicated skin color in caste in a way that it was not previously. Their perception of the world at the time was very much "white = good" and "anything other than white = bad" and they couldn't help but apply that framework to all human relations.
According to a Leger poll, 64% of Canadians would vote for Kamala Harris, while 21% would support Donald Trump, with 15% undecided. Conservative voters in Canada were nearly evenly split, with 42% supporting Harris and 45% backing Trump.
Trump would lose the election if Canada were a state, barring any electoral college shenanigans.
American culture magnifies it.
Pickup trucks have evolved from work vehicles into powerful status symbols in American culture. While 75% of truck owners rarely or never use them for towing, they purchase these vehicles as symbols of success, masculinity, and lifestyle choice. In urban and suburban areas, professionals spend $70,000+ on trucks as alternatives to luxury cars, particularly in Southern states where they represent wealth and power. The trend continues growing, with trucks now accounting for 20% of U.S. vehicle sales. Despite minimal towing usage, truck owners display the highest vehicle loyalty rate, with nearly 80% choosing another truck when replacing their current one.
Meanwhile China is slowly working towards global dominance in the EV space which we all know is the future.
The American empire is in that stage of decay where the men are actively lying to themselves about their greatness. The whole manosphere (which originated in the US) is based on that premise.
As they feel themselves sliding further and further into the periphery of relevance, they'll elect increasingly fascist leaders to try and reassert their dominance, only to be swindled by those they put into power.
It's all downhill from here.
There are definitely some doctors that are susceptible to this (especially surgeons) but it's worth pointing out that there are relatively few doctors in the billionaire class and doctors in general have not brought upon societal decay in the way that techbros have.
Most doctors spend their career simply treating patients under some type of corporate or insurance owned overlord.
That's some pretty serious dedication to avoiding Reddit.
