Our enemies are actually full TVRace NPCs, top to bottom. Kumala freezes up when her teleprompter does, they have no real arguments outside of buzzwords, and the whole damn bureaucracy is mentally incapable of autonomous action. All political movements by nature are going to have a good number of drones, but I struggle to detect even a glimmer of sentience from the entire Democratic Party right now.

@ArdainianRight The average lib's view of the political spectrum goes very simply from well-meaning to wicked:
Causey types/SJWs/vegans
("I am here, very smart :wojak_big_brain:")
Poor religious conservatives
Evil rich fascists
The people to the left of them are nutty and "go too far," but ultimately have their heart in the right place. Everyone to the right of them is a misguided redneck or corporate fatcat dictator. All media they create reflects this framework.

@ArdainianRight In hindsight, it's kind of funny how media like House of Cards likes to portray politicians as having a public face that seems vacuous that hides cunning political actors who only reveal themselves behind closed doors. The hilarious reality is that the vacuous public face is the only face they have and they probably get anxious if they're alone with their own thoughts for too long.

@MeBigbrain Those who function best in a vacuous and soulless bureaucratic regime are those who are so hollow themselves that they can function naturally and without hesitation. Intelligence and integrity are obstacles.
