Their plan: The poor should just die already.

The business model is hoping that non-professional users will sign up for canva subscriptions in order to take advantage of the AI features. There's zillions of users like that—far more than the number of professional graphic artists that would pay for this software.

I think most people would wine and complain after falling into a ravine like that.

What do you propose they do? How do you detect and stop something like this? I don't think it's possible.

When people say, "we should just house the homeless" this is not what they meant!

Having a unique password per device is best practices. IoT vendors should be doing that regardless of whether or not they're giving the end user root.

There's supposed to be a regulation demanding an IoT "nutrition label" that has that very thing in its list of items. I wonder what happened to that?

You see, that's the thing: In order for the US to get to that point, the people must first NOT be chomping at the bit, fantasizing about ripping unelected bureaucrats like Stephen Miller to shreds the moment they see him in person.

Usually—the way this happens—is that you have a strongman coming to power, promising to bring justice to people like Stephen Miller. Not supporting them.

I honestly don't think there's enough support behind Trump at this point to pull that off. In fact, a simple marketing campaign pointing out that it's not just Trump but the entire Republican party that is responsible for this mess we're in, would do wonders.

Republicans—the ones sitting at home watching this play out on Fox News—aren't getting the right kind of propaganda for Stephen Miller (or Trump's other underlings) to survive past Trump. Even if he doesn't get torn to shreds by some angry mob, he's committing crimes on the regular which will result in prosecution when a new administration comes around.

The next administration won't be as delusional about preserving tradition when it comes to prosecuting their predecessors. Trump made sure to throw that entire concept into the East Wing right before he had it torn down.

Ugh. You're right, of course. We're surrounded by lizard-brained, uncivilized cave people who still believe in fairy tales.

Tell them that their religion is a fantasy without evidence, though, and now you're somehow the unreasonable one.
