They hire ex-cop contractor buddies and give them gobs of municipal money to do a 'training' session where they brainwash the entire force into thinking that they're at war with an insurgency as dangerous to them as alqueda was to the military that so many of them came from.

This is one of the reasons they're so trigger happy. Right from academy they're taught this, and any recruits who question it get dropped. One of the more famous programs is literally called 'Kill-ology'.

There's been a general decline in recorded testosterone levels since the mid 20th. Other hormonal changes are purported as stemming from plastics, which we're now just beginning to discover.

I think these are the culprits as to why people are starting to look younger. When a guy is juicing at the gym for a while he can start to look 80s old. Idk.

One of the missing pieces that was mentioned by someone else is the purchase of residential properties by businesses being at all time highs.

WFH is efficient and makes sense in many cases. Private equity firms buying homes and holding them to sweat out the market far beyond what a solo landlord could or would, does not.

Ty for calling out the non-sense. Somehow accusing Democrats of also being on the take is considered outlandish.

Theyve got us fighting over scraps (abortion, marriage, the right to express ourselves and love who we want) but they are in full agreement on where most of the tax dollars go (MIC, contracting companies of powerful friends, subsidies for factory farms).

Gonna have to wake up the dormant Sheeple.

if you create a situation where the cop does not feel safe

You reach for your license 'too fast' - cop does not feel safe Acorn falls on car - cop doesn't feel safe You are boiling water at home - cop does not feel safe You are writhing in pain underneath their boot - cop does not feel safe

US cops are literally brainwashed into feeling like the public is a threat to them. They are wired to look for a reason to escalate.

Maximizing the utility of labor? I'm alluding to using the components of the scenario in the most efficient way.

How would you express it?

Yeah I see your point and I've got amazing manners with human beings. It's a view I personally reserve for companies. And the larger they are, the less I respect them enough to have 'manners' towards them.

Perhaps it's the inability for people to treat corporations the way corporations treat people that leads to such a power differential.

In the US, unlike most other countries, medical doctors are most at risk for suicide.
