We did in the 80s when you last were culture bombed about it. The textile industry is mostly in China now, and mostly automated, including cotton harvesting. Wool has some issues but animal cruelty tends not to register with you people, but poly blend clothing, which is by far the majority of clothing produced, has less human labor than most electronics manufacturing.

If it's a shirt, there's not really labor involved outside transportation.

American does generic American thing: "this is just like the foreign bad guys in my TV show!"

You do if you don't browse all and instead curate your own feed.

Oh, right, ml instance. Anyway class war is the only war and you can be racist against white people.

The old adage isn't just for show; if you're up against a state actor, or believe you need to secure yourself against a state actor, you're fucked.

That being said if you're not already secured against the 5/13 eyes and you think Trump makes a difference you're too naive to ever be targeted and nothing you do matters to them.

Trump makes no difference in terms of the US government attempting to breach privacy. Every anti privacy measure the US has ever pushed has been bipartisan, including the patriot act which was written by Joe Biden. You're not paranoid enough or far too paranoid.

It would be assuming we do reach post scarcity for all essential goods. There's more than enough bored people right now that would throw away the rest of their lifespan for a few months in space to fill a intra galactic space exploration organization; give those bored people all the free education they can handle and you have a successful star fleet.

That's fine but that's more new regulations rather than ice regs applying to electric cars; in the US all or nearly all ice regs apply to electric, which means we can't get small EVs since they don't have enough mileage per unit of weight. I believe similar nonsense is happening in at least the EU as a poor excuse to stop Chinese imports from flooding the market

Since they shook off the English they've been right about most things.

That's a whole lot of words for "remove import restrictions, stop applying ICE-era regulations to electric cars, stop subsidizing gas and ICE cars."

That was literally every instance of employment your parents and their parents and so on did.
