And here I am struggling to get into orbit with my duct tape and boosters. Hour long burns seem insane.

I am rural

This is a big factor. I think I doubled my time on the computer when I moved to an area with no true neighbors for miles.

This could tactically work for them

Lol, it absolutely will not. Republicans are republicans, first and foremost. They are voting republican because republicans are their sports team. It does not matter what the policies espoused by democrats are, they are democrats, and thus verboten for republicans.

Do you not remember the hilarious interviews where democratic (maybe obama specifically, depends on the video) policies were pitched to republicans, and they agreed with them up until the reveal that the policy was from the 'wrong side' of the political aisle?

At first I came in here to say it was a silly idea, but almost every argument against it could be thrown against other games that have been done.

Somebody's going to have to retake the forklift safety video when the manager sees this. And it's going to be one of the videos where you have to click on shit in the video to make it advance.

That's quite the axe you've got there, mr. ayyy. You been grinding it on any dragons lately? Just, bringing it up on random comments about internet behavior?

If they did not read him his Miranda rights, that could be enough by itself to basically throw everything out.

Matey, stop commenting on things you've only seen on tv. Reading someone their rights is only done under specific circumstances, and only applies to certain evidence associated with those circumstances.

Anyone who cares to learn can read about it here in the excellent illustrated guide to the law.

Maybe... Prions are a different beast altogether in terms of illness. Even the most terrifying forms take years to debilitate and kill you. I don't think most countries want to wait that long to cripple an opponent, and definitely won't want to unleash anything on a neighbor that will certainly come back at them. Right now the only thing that truly gets prions to be gone is incineration levels of heat.

So I don't think biological warfare is going to be on the table. Maybe terrorist type attacks, where the asymmetrical nature of the opponents makes the user unconcerned about potential effects on themself.

Hey, asshole, quit talking about me like I'm not here!

The majority of assholes in these areas are still vaccinated, unfortunately. It's the kids that will be suffering, from the decisions of their parents. If disease would eradicate the unvaccinated quickly enough to wipe out the texas undesirables, we wouldn't have had the current election outcome in the first place.

That's the real issue. If you have your fundamental beliefs shaken, you might reason through and come to a good, logical, moral conclusion. You might also do the cognitive dissonance thing and suppress the new revelation with bullshit. If, however, you have someone (faux news) right there with the cognitive dissonance spewing 24/7 and are in an echo chamber of others who are agreeing... well, it's a good chance you'll just accept the talking point and not question it.

Maybe the way to go about it is mocking them if they're spouting the propaganda, and trying to help them in their reasoning if they're questioning things.

I wonder how they reacted to the Deep Throat.
