I saw someone ask on Mastodon if we are witnessing the next evolution of humanity; those who can be skeptical of the information they are presented with vs just agreeing with it because it tells them what they want to hear. The example was that a disproportionate number of conservatives died from just not believing information about covid from people who were smarter (at this specific subject) than they were.
THANK YOU.
I'm sort of peeved that boardgames has gone from a "hey, I get to sit in meat space not staring at a monitor and doing something fun with friends" into a consumerist dog and pony show.
I was hoping this was going to be "you take the PRR and run it over the B&O" and "you try and get your train company to Chicago" or "you never build, only auction or develop" but yeah, it's mostly about what you own and what you're buying.
