"That's how they like it in the Navy" is not a compliment.

As has been mentioned - I can only assume Jeff Bezos can't get enough leftist hate and taxation given his decision to open HQ2 in NY and DC. Maybe HQ3 will be in San Francisco.

I was fairly sure he'd move it to the east coast (shipping from both sides of America), but I thought he'd probably hit the Carolinas where people would be grateful for the work and no loonies are lying in wait to blame him for society's ills.

My Monday Morning QB on this is they are very happy now controlling jobs in political centers in America.

Urban centers have a lot more gibs to gib. Polunka KS can’t offer the same “incentives” to a corporation.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

I'm a bit jealous to be honest. I fucking love the way you set the rules locally and on a state level in the US. We have something similar but nothing near the same magnitude of local legislation freedom.
You're doing A/B testing on grand scale. No need for conterfactual speculation. Pragmatism galore.

Sure, it's awesome ... when you have creatures that can actually LEARN from the results.

It's less awesome when San Francisco turns their Eden-like city into a cesspool of discarded needles, homeless cities, and open sewage and the dunces in Seattle say "Damn, they had the right idea. It's just an utter coincidence that things turned to shit for them. Let's try the same policies here and THIS TIME the fantasy results we all imagine will be sure to manifest".
:doh:

A/B testing is only useful when the results are factored into the next calculation. If you consistently pick the weakest result based on the strong belief that next time it will win you're not A/B testing. You're practicing religion.

Adults behaving like children and police totally incapable of asserting authority. What a basket case.

As bullhorn lady is yelling "we are not ashamed to be anti-fascist as the camera pans around to show about half of them hiding behind masks. Another 25% doesn't want to be filmed and actively hides behind their signs.

Earlier in the video the black guy says "what you gonna do some wing chung shit". As he's saying this the camera pans past an Asian guy in the group that looks embarrassed and keeps hiding from the camera.
