It was a reference to what agent Smith said in the movie.
But also yea, it seems like standard of living peaked around that time where everything was affordable (in North America at least), people weren't addicted to their tech and still generally had a third place. Politicians also didn't lean as much into rhetoric.
When your platform is all about "hey at least I'm not that guy", it doesn't inspire people to vote
Early 2000s really was peak human civilization
If it's pre-30 yr old, the cells are all body builders, but after, they are old men with canes
Yup, unfortunately people don't understand that policies only change the equilibrium, but sometimes take longer than electoral cycles to see effect.
That's why no party really gives a shit about bringing down the national debt, because twofold:

Subway bread is considered cake in Ireland.

Nobody is saying what they are doing is illegal. And complaining is what people do to vent, you don't have to read it.
It's seems par the course for Amazon to just treat employees as disposable, and they've burned so many regions' working populations' proverbial bridges that I recall LTT highlighting an article saying Amazon can't find people to employ because they've already cycled through everyone.
Anecdotally, I'm suddenly getting recruiters from AWS asking to interview me, and it all makes sense now. They want to replace the remote workers with new people who don't complain. Fuck that, and fuck them if they think people should be apathetic to this strategy.
it skews perception to use y-offsets in percentage dimensions.
They captured it on video.
Freedom of speech and burning the flag is one thing: offensive sure but that's the point of free speech. But you cross the line when you commit to incendiary CTAs like that, you are causing harm.
Funny thing is this was uttered by some woke-ass white lady Charlotte Kates who you know would be one of the first people targetted if Hamas was ever in power where she lived.
Yea, that's what happens when you incite violence with a call to action: saying "Death to Canada".
