every single person claiming to yearn for this would kill themselves if they were subjected to the tyranny of the 56k modem for one hour
This is doing numbers on social media right now and it's so depressing how people truly yearn for this shit and want to preserve that feeling indefinitely like a mausoleum of false memories.

It’s going to break your heart how many people you know, love, and respect will turn out to be cowards. Prepare yourself as best you can. You are not alone, but you are your own center. Be a strong center.

Kavanaugh faced harsh questionkng exactly once in his life and all he had to do was cry and yell through it and get put on the Supreme Court for his trouble so of course the idea of a traffic stop that upends a life is totally alien to him.

Honestly brave of JD Vance to be this despicable at such a young age. People like Trump will shuffle off this mortal coil before the real cultural bill can ever be paid, but Vance could hang around to be detested for decades.
