true true, that's an excellent term for it. If only we could somehow assess it with metrics and data
That would be some really cool data to view "how stubborn are the attitudes in different countries" and "how many personalities are stubborn in different countries"
edit: this was an odd double post.
I don't think you understand just how stupid my fellow country members are. We literally say "hey to prevent getting yourself and others sick, you should do these steps" making it a suggestion of reasonable things.
the response "my freedoms are being trampled". I fucking wish they actually were.
Supreme Court, siding with Starbucks, makes it harder for NLRB to win court orders in labor disputes
This was quite a wonderful way to handle a miscommunication and I was glad to witness it.
Thanks for restoring some hope that the fediverse is capable of handling such issues with respect and courtesy.

what I'm hunting down right now would be a service where we both can set the terms.
example I submit 50+service fee $ to x service . if I'm wrong money goes to NoSuchAgency
you also submit a bet of 50 + service fee if your wrong money goes to me.
winner gets their og bet money + other half of the bet. edit making sure the bets are accurate
we'll keep it friendly. 50$ each. we'll use an escrow service. if Biden doesn't pardon him once he is no longer president, I win the cash. if he does you win.
agreeable?
willing to bet?
It has a lot to do with money and technology. By the time we were able to have electric vehicles, oil companies were loaded and companies like to make money. So they spend money to lobby and keep themselves entrenched. Throw in some good feel bullshit to placate a simple majority of the people and that brings us to today.
