I would suddenly feel very sad for the one of them that bottled it up for 40 years, and for the other who obviously has known for many of those years…

That’s just your Theatons talking.

That’s a smoke screen. Another is the “liberal brainwashing machine” school system scare. What they fear is the statistic that higher educated individuals trend towards populism and progressivism. They see higher education of youths as a threat to their political base, which turns into “spineless parents sending kids to liberul brainwashing camps funded by the gubmnt.”

The ghost of Reagan?

And you get to make one of those cute “Resolved; for record keeping” tickets to fill out your day :) This is why I actually give out my direct line. If anyone gets upset at not being able to reach me, I can just say tons of people have that same number and are trying to reach me, and I’m never bored from 8-5

I would be interested in hearing of any country with the sheer volume of immigrants that the US has from every continent. We have migrants from every European nation, africa (including modern african culture, not just the results of the slave trade and imancipation), asian immigrants, including China, Japan, Veitnamese, Indian, even indigenous peoples as far as Oceania. And every culture is represented in our own, much to the dismay of those that believe our great works came solely from white hands. Our democracy is founded on a melting pot of ideas and inputs, not a euro-centric empire graciously allowing “lesser men” in it’s borders.

It makes sense if you’re in an industry with hotspot flare-ups. I work MSP IT and those morning meeting are the way my team asks for help on pressing issues, or rings the alarm bells on business impacting outages. Additionally, Tier I helpdesk and Tier III projects never communicate, so the SUM is where T1 hears about where projects are at (in case they get the breakfix for that item) and T3 knows how swamped T1 is and what mobile techs are out, and T2 gets a chance to tell us if the flow from T1 and T3 into the “escalation sandwich” is too much. And we genuinely have it down pat to 5-10min.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had shitty SUM requirements, but when they’re done right, it’s better than a state of the union email/Teams message.

And do what? Make a better product? The beauty of Capitalism is that consumers really are the final say on whether your product succeeds. You can make an app with as many addictive hooks as possible, but that doesn’t make those users permanent. And any sabbotage by Reddit will only dig in our heels at this point.
