You’re supposed to recognize their undisputed superiority and turn yourselves into automatons for their pleasure, having no other options available to you.
Of course that never actually works, as it always ends up with someone like Moses or Jesus figuring out that you can, in fact, live perfectly fine in this world without their economic systems. As long as you’re willing to deal with the natural world directly.
Oh it’s certainly possible to do. Just that it’s incredibly dangerous, which is why there is an extremely rigorous testing regime in place, taking many, many years, which must be completed before any particular therapy is approved. Many proposed therapies are never able to successfully complete testing because the most common side effects by far are sterility and death.
It’s astonishing to me just how confidently people, often those who’ve never even studied the body, will assert they definitely know how things work. DNA is the big one for me, as there’s an entire “layer” of genetic function which we know almost nothing about. We may have mapped the atomic structure of DNA, and identified a number of sequences of base pairs which can be correlated with certain traits, yet how DNA “folds” and why remains almost a complete mystery. Many think that scientists have reached a level where we can splice our genetic code as though it were a computer program to make it do this or that, yet in reality attempts to do so almost never work, usually resulting in sterility or death.
There’s been a concerted effort over the last several decades to push a men vs women dynamic online, and most men don’t buy into it, so it’s really just been people shitting all over men without consequence. Just look at the other answers here focusing exclusively on how men can be blamed (edit: many better replies have been posted since I made this comment).
Quite likely pushed excessively by foreign propaganda.
Imagine if they put their effort towards actually creating things.
I guess my point is less about the quality of American care, and more about the quality of Canadian care. I hear so many Americans online hold up the Canadian system as a shining example of what healthcare should be, while I’d do pretty much anything to avoid having to deal with the system up here. It’s really a “grass is always greener on the other side” thing both ways I think.
Despite the cost of healthcare in America, the quality is generally seen as the very best there is. Canadian healthcare is so bad that anyone who can afford it will head south to actually get quality treatment, immediately. Up here a friend of my family is probably going to head to Mexico (can’t afford American care, sadly) for knee surgery because the waitlist in Canada is far too long and he can’t afford to be off work until it’s his turn.
America certainly does have it’s share of significant problems, but a huge amount of what they seem to eat up is blatant propaganda designed to erode the public’s faith in their nation. There’s a reason that so many Canadians move to the southern states if they can afford it.
Can’t speak for anyone else, but I personally like the feeling of two equal and opposite forces pushing against each other, cancelling each other out and creating a firm, unchanged, structure no matter how much force is applied. I do the same while doing squats sometimes, pressing hands together while descending, and it feels more stable.
Yup. It’s going to suck a lot.
That still won’t ever make their stupid idea actually function in reality. They’re far too dumb to directly control everyone’s lives.
