But the memecoin framing is great, that totally fits the model of a thing that's only valuable if a lot of people are into it and that's basically worthless if you're the only one who has it.

This is a brilliant idea. One of the really interesting things about Adel V is that it's an economic type game where being contrarian isn't advantageous; but I've long thought that this isn't very realistic, like isn't art more valuable if it's more rare and there's less of it?

Huh, cool; what are you actually doing here? :^ ) More like playing BG3, or using BG3 to create art related to a tabletop game, or ... ?

"100% of demand [...] is because of illegal immigration"? Every single person who wants housing, that's because of illegal immigration? If there was no illegal immigration, there'd be ZERO demand for housing? What a dingus.

Also, he's an incoherent idiot. "literally strained our housing supply"? What does that even mean. "caused affordability to go up"? Isn't that a *good* thing? We want stuff to be *MORE* affordable.

Now we're in to the phase of the playbook where they conduct occasional public executions, so that others will be terrorized into compliance.

For example, if the Gestapo tells you to move your vehicle, and then a Gestapo agent steps back and shoots you to death when you attempt to comply, that context is important to understanding that the Gestapo agent just murdered you, and was not acting in anything remotely like "self defense".

Because, just to be clear, there is obviously no context under which that is the case; so I wish he hadn't let her get away with "well, there was context" and left it at that. Because sometimes there *is* context! And it's important to explore that.

I wish Tapper had pushed her to explain the context under which our pathetic wannabe dictator's goons attacked police on Jan 6th, and explain how that context meant that their vicious, violent attacks were lawful.
