Well I'm sure she didn't leave her wealth in a place that it could be reclaimed by the people. So it's a tragedy of estate laws.

It creates jobs for people to clean and maintain the grinders.

That said, I think the story would've been better if the android woman adopted the human girl. It would've helped the themes on people as property and how children and spouses are treated like that today.

Instead with both as androids, it's an android caring for another android while the guy who bought them did so out of spite.

Also as an aside, who thought having a lifelike child android would be a good idea in any way in the setting?

That's why it's on the list at all. Limit the definition of political action to the most inert things and relegate everything else to obscurity. Make change or the actions required for a better world unthinkable.

How are we like 4chan users? We filter slurs and ban users who try to engage in hate speech. We offer content/NSFW warnings. We don't doxx or send death threats and ban those who try.

I want to know why you looked at Hexbear and saw 4chan.

It would be funny if the only ones affected by fascism were fascists.

Like I get pointing and laughing at someone like trump-moist, but sometimes I feel it leans too close to an irony-poisoned indifference to the horrible things he says and propagates.

I understand not caring in the grand scheme of things because it's ultimately nothing new in the West, but it's still rough when you want to talk to people about the blatant dog whistling.
