I'm pretty confident that most people moving around NYC are not taking a taxi on the daily. I'm guessing you don't live here.

New York is more than like midtown manhattan. I would not describe it as "clogged with taxis".

Also there's like 3.5 million subway riders per day in NYC.

So I don't know what point you're trying to make.

Meanwhile, the US is trying to go to 60 hour workweeks and 6-day workweeks.

Labor needs to organize, and the rich need to be broken.

Some people love their country like a child loves their parent. Perfect, the strongest smartest ever, can do no wrong. Any criticism is an attack and unacceptable.

Some people love their country like a peer. They see their strengths and their flaws, and they want them to grow and improve. Sometimes that means hard conversations and difficult changes. But they do want what's best for them.

Maybe something that reflects on all the loss. Dead from COVID, chaos from government programs shutting down, allies betrayed, and a mirror in the center that says something like "you did this".

I think a lot of people are struggling economically, and movie theaters are kind of expensive. If labor had a bigger slice of the pie, more of them would probably spend it on movies.

I used to go to a theater that served food and drink right to your seat, and enforced silence from the crowd. It was pretty good. But that's also like $50 a go.

I enjoyed the simplicity of old video game RPGs where the price of the item directly scaled with the value of the item. Armor for 1000gp was just straight out better than the one for 300gp.

But they also kill their children and innocent bystanders.

I know someone who is immune compromised because she had a rare genetic disorder, and the medicine she needs to live fucks up her immune system. She can't benefit from vaccines. If some anti-vaxxer refuses a vaccine, gets sick, and sneezes on her on the subway, she'll might die.

Plus very old and young people are vulnerable, too.

The person who didn't get vaccinated might not even die, if they're otherwise healthy.

As I said to the other response, I know in my brain that you are right. I, as a city dwelling tech worker, my interests align more than someone who works with his hands in the suburbs than with a billionaire. We're both labor.

I still want to hit the maga-hat who's frothing about how the gays are ruining their christmas, but I know that's not really helpful.

I know in my brain you're right but in my heart there is nothing but malice.

But as you say, what would earn forgiveness? If this somehow ends and we go back to "normal", I think a lot of maga-hats won't ever admit fault. They won't see the bigger picture, and they'll fall for the next con.

Anyone who's been supporting trump is a scumbag or idiot. Anyone who's still supporting trump is worse.

We should never forgive them.

Republicans are the worst people. If you know one, maybe punch them in the neck.
