The soundtrack still rocks.

Could use some alien squishes and a bit of 8-bit machine gun in there, but yeah.

Let's not pretend all humans are incapable of peace just because we have a system which makes the greedy and cruel rise to the top.

Literally translates to "the path" or... "the Way"

You might be right. I find it dubious, but I think you might be.

Yeah memory is a funny thing I guess. But like, it seems that there would've needed to be at least a few years of someone actively blocking the kid from going home if he knew were home was, until he could be gaslighted into believing the new one.

Edit to add: I'm always a little thrown off when I see your username. Just for a second.

Took me a while. I was looking at mine, thinking what's wrong, why would you be thrown, but then I saw yours and I totally got it.

Yeah. Shit, isn't it?

Yeah despite there being a law against discrimination, the cops are obviously going to use their subjective view of things like lewd behaviour to charge topless women where they wouldn't men.

Did he know he was adopted?

I wonder how he wouldn't have. The story says he was six when he was abducted. I learned how to read when I was five and knew my own address at six.

How did he never like, just say "I'm not from here, please take me home"? I know America is big, but...

The Battle of Blair Mountain was the largest labor uprising in United States history

And I had never heard of it. Although I'm not American.

Well, in the sense that ofc "social sciences" would include history for one, and historically, it was recognised as a notion. And in the sense that that notion is a social construct, is something that modern social sciences would study, obviously.

I think you know — but now I'm saying in case you didn't — that I meant that the notion that there is a biological race of any sort isn't a notion modern science would agree with.

Also race isn't something science thinks is a thing, really

Just something MAGA-people seem to have a hard time with sometimes. Probably not as much when Americans are speaking to themselves, but as a non-American, sometimes it's challenging to get "those people" to admit that there is indeed anything wrong with the US. As in they won't accept a single criticism, and will loudly proclaim "America is the greatest country in the world", while wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat, which for me pretty explicitly means America isn't great, if it has to be made to be such again.
