I hate "but its a dry heat" people. At 95, maybe. At 107, fuck you 107 is 107.

In the US, it isn't about identification or fraud, its about hoops. The more hoops you have to jump through, the less likely "undesirables" (POC, poors, etc) are yo get it done. Like most things here, its a relic of Jim Crow and related policies. It flies so well even today because it all seems menial to somebody well off (you see it in these comments "Its only $10 what's the problem")

Here, the Department of Motor Vehicles tends to be your central point of anything ID related driver or not. My city's used to be on the bus line, but they moved it to the county far from any public transit. So if you don't drive, that $10 is now $10 + $20 taxi/uber there + $20 ride home and depending on what you're doing/getting you may need to go back which is another $40. So really you're looking at $50-100 to get whatever it is.

In my state at one time (I do think its changed here but assume its probably the same in other states) to get a birth certificate you had to go to the state capital (4 hour drive for me one way.) If you dont drive, sucks to suck. Pay someone to take you or hope you have greyhound where you live.

I could go on, but you get the point.

100%. Also fine them for one months salary every time they play this "I just won't do my job 🤷‍♂️" game. Dont wanna work, dont get paid.

Unfortunately they all live off corporate kickbacks more than salary but at least some of that can be returned to the coffers.

"Since our corporation maintains an office in Texas, we've had your case moved to a Texas court district with exactly one judge who just so happened to be appointed by trump to rule for corporations, enjoy running it up to the SCOTUS judges I take on cruises with me"

I wonder how much money gets spent on all this vs how much it would cost to just not suck major ass. Neither approach is going to eliminate piracy, but at least trying to attract more flies with honey wouldn't send more people to the black sails purely out of spite lol

This is me. I don't give a single fuck about achievements, unless ive really enjoyed myself and (usually) only if I'm most of the way via my regular playthrough. Requiring multiple playthroughs is an immediate turn off, too many other games to get to lol.

You're being labeled a fascist sympathizer because you STARTED with calling somebody a tankie for pointing out democrats are complicit in our march toward fascism, then just started slinging every ""centrist"" trope around "I'm not a Republican I just think the real fascists are the people who won't let fascists overhaul the entire government to their whims, laws morals and standards be damned."

I'm also not engaging further with you, I just want you to know nobody is buying your bullshit.

These people love to find new creative ways to say "all we can do is let the fascists fascist, 🤷‍♂️" then turn around and call people accelerationists for mentioning they listened to a podcast about ww2 that called Hitler a bad guy.
