They really were the first online generation. After World War 2, pretty much all the functions we associate with the internet were present, but slower and spread out over multiple systems. Radio, television, telephone - even older forms of mass media like magazines and newspapers played some role. People even note that the sixties marked a new cultural phenomenon - by that point the first generation raised in this "analog online" was old enough to be contributing to it's cultural output. It marked the start of the feedback loop.

The Baby Boomers experienced a lot of firsts for whats now considered the standard experience of growing up in the US. It... really explains a lot.

Buried on page 554 of the plan is a directive to execute every remaining person on federal death row — and dramatically expand the use of the death penalty

this kind of scrutiny is, in a weird way, why I think Trump may be the harm reduction candidate. Liberals and liberal outlets have endless excuses for the Democrats and their failures, and with any other Republican they keep the gloves of respectability on. But they hate Trump so much, they do real actual combative journalism on everything everything his campaign does.

People who hide behind the word "escapism" are absolutely the sort of people who will go off on a rant about how places like China or Russia or [insert target country here] are full of unthinking drones that wouldn't dream of contradicting the status quo. :projection:

One theory among researchers is they're just playing around.

it's just a joke, can't anyone take a joke anymore?

Other researchers say it may be that the whales like the feel of the rudder.

It's like when chuds look at the US locking up black people at, like, 6 times the rate of white people, then insist it's not the result of systemic racism but instead a confirmation of their own racist beliefs.
