The world we live in currently is very rare in human history. Sittong around watching Netflix, ordering junk to your door by Amazon, and getting Uber Eats to deliver you Chipotle all with government programs supporting these same people in so many other ways. Just a minor setback, maybe a big cyber attack or natural disaster, or major economic collapse or a bank run, and there will be millions of people who will not know what to do. Will likely resort to violence and chaos will ensue.

Don’t be so glib. At least with Khan you knew his intentions, these groomer fricks smile in your face while they plot to destroy everything you hold dear.

If it was actual nerds that were smart and understood numbers I would be cool with this. The fricks running the show are retards that got kicked out of chess club and debate.

To run with the high school theme, the student government types aren’t any better. Frick ‘em all.

Its the literal revenge of the nerds.

Thankfully not all. Many of us are engineers and technologists today but are still very conservative.

I noted during the 'great recession' everyone flocked to schools [which has been done before] but it was different this time. The average cost of a bachelors degree is now 10x the cost of when I grew up, as states continue to cut funding for the schools, the schools grew with lazy-rivers and jungle-gyms.

Only Mike Rowe pointed out the obvious after we had started outsourcing so many positions. This is what we saw growing up:



This is what he promotes...



Its funny, the tech bubble has been the cause of most of this. Kids with basic skills being paid outrageous amounts of money to do tech things.

I remember working on assignment when Accenture brought in nearly 60 people [former nurses, teachers, media specialists] to perform basic html work for their clients.

I don't begrudge anyone for striving to get ahead, and have watched a fair share go from minimum wage to six figures in 5 - 10 years. But not everyone can do it, Those that do are usually gifted.

This bubble will bust.

Those in that picture are upset at the time about having their money laundering scam ended.

About half of them at the time were already involved in spying on the opposition presidential candidate/president elect

Most were at the time involved with framed up FCKRY against the president elect in the form of multiple hoaxes

THE PEOPLE IN THIS PHOTO ARE A PART OF THE EVIL OF THE WEAPONIZATION OF GOVERNMENT BY THEIR ADMINISTRATION - IOW THEY THEMSELVES ARE CRIMINALS.

Most of these people should be in prison

And Genghis Khan and other warriors didn't come after you if you didn't comply? Genghis left nothing in this world but destruction. At least the conquerers before him built cities, trade routes, and technology. Colonizers brought advancements as well.

The geeks built this world. It wasn't the strongman that built weapons of war and tools to advance society. The computer geeks you deride built the planes, radar, night vision, GPS that lets the jocks win battles. It wasn't the foot soldier that built the tank, it was the engineer.

Yes, the left is shitty. But nearly every advancement you enjoy in this world is from the thinkers. I wouldn't put the people in your picture in the same category as people that advance technology. The original computer nerds were anti-authoritarian and nothing like the progressive filth you reference.

It’s true, academia, tech and Hollywood is made up mostly of people who were once considered nerds.

Could be.

Could also be a few "team" photos from the OT.

But...but...Doesn't EVERYONE'S life revolve around sitting around tweeting? Then onto Netlflix, Uber Eats, Chipotle, and receiving FREE money and stuff..(cuz "Stay Home, Stay Safe!" and "The Pandemic!!")??

Yeah...It's a BS Paradigm. Reality is gonna be the b*tch that slaps these snowflakes into a Twilight Zone they never saw coming.

Actually much of the trade routes and trade along the Silk Road were promoted by Khan and his descendants.
