That in spite of doing my best to care for their mother as she slipped into the madness of depression and alzheimers before dieing last year, that they care about my sacrifice because no one other than me or my brother cared enough about her to help with her care(we did the best we could I know it wasnt enough but at least we were there for her)

But they get to keep her money after kicking us out of the house and selling everything she had so thats cool right?

If im reading it correctly only the sharing is prohibited not the preservation.

I can live with that and fight again another day. As long as they still exist in an archive they will see the legal light of day someday(im being optimistic)

The high seas will take care of retro gamers who want to play them im sure, as Gaben says piracy is a service issue.

What if i told you fascism is a symptom. We are not doing enough to maintain and better our societies. This is what you get when you fuck over everyone by letting bad actors reign supreme.

We need a new party to vote for. We need to change HOW we govern ourselves.

But we dont and wont as long as people care more about benfitting themselves, to hell with everyone else.

You want to fix it?

you need good people with the support of enough people to be voted in and be able to operate without needing to kowtow to special/selfish interests.

It means allowing that we are NOT all the same. We dont agree on much right now, not enough of us.

It also requires sacrifice by those who have been mistreated. That is the bitterest pill of all

Just watched the intro. I’m not really on board with the eugenics angle even after watching it. It’s more social darwinism than eugenics.

Eugenicists as ive always thought of it is an intended or active pursuit of creating “better” humans(or whatever species).

One factor I see being a difference between natural selection and unnatural selection. Unnatural selection being eugenics, and natural selection being what a result of an environment having an effect on the evolution of a species.

The intro Primarily sets a path of one group having more children than the other group and i will concede it the intelligent couple having problems having kids misrepresents the rest of the movie while still giving the audience a vehicle to how the future they wanted to craft could happen. And it also is meant to be entertainment not just exposition.

Would be very interested in an in depth response from Mike Judge and the rest of the filmakers. Would be an interesting use of AI/Deepfake to redo the intro if it actually wasnt intended to invoke a eugenic view of the future
