It should honestly be a disqualifying demonstration of bad decision making.

You can either put in a lot of effort straight away (saving time and effort later), or delay the inevitable, pay quite a large sum in transport costs every day, and have to do infinite airport runs?..

Choosing the latter shows he shouldn’t have the job.

Technically it would be a trepanation.

Makes sense, there’s overlap between what they can do, and what they struggle with…

So there’s 2/3rds they just can’t do… All of which they struggle with… But there’s some stuff they CAN DO, and they struggle with… And then there’s 1/4 they can do without struggle.

They’ll soon be up to the scouting phase of their colonization plans, leaving the westl still hoping Musk’s insane plans pan out.

Feels like it’s been speeding up the past few years. Barely had a winter season this year.

Well, this is LeftyMemes, so there’s a preference for the left here.

Free market Capitalists dislike the population being able to make/recognize the distinction. Because there’s a certain kind of “Liberal” who are only Liberals when Liberalism economically benefits them, but become Conservatives (and even radically right wing Conservatives) when Socially Democratic policies, or talk of taxing wealth becomes popular.

Donald Trump, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and others have all worn the mask of a “Liberalism” that refuses to to make this distinction (between social and economic liberalism).

A Liberal who is an economic liberal but doesn’t seek progressive improvements to society, isn’t a liberal at all. They’re a conservative in waiting for the moment things progress too far.

Thus leftists are served by keeping this distinction in mind. Learn it. Recognize who will kick up a fuss and change teams, and remember that they have a limited use, and will eventually go no further (or worse, become a major hindrance). You need an exit strategy for those people.

Otherwise progress gets maligned in the name of maintaining the ‘status quo’.

That’s who they started with. An important truth somewhat overlooked in mass media about them.

You’ll never get anywhere with that attitude

…and nation, you have a role to the nation. It’s not necessary a loving one, and part of it should be the willingness to violently protest your own nation when it turns on you.
