california's basically a feudal society consisting of the landowning gentry (boomers), a burgher class (tech workers) that can get by but despises the restrictions placed by the gentry, and a hopeless peasantry (everyone else)

Whenever you see NIMBY’s in a city council meeting and blocking housing, remember they’re doing it to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars from the next buyer of their house. They are freeriders with a decaying asset expecting someone to kiss their feet for the opportunity.

@Calibaneur there are 3 kinds of wars now: 1. total obliteration followed by decades-long insurgency (if war involves united states); 2. trench warfare (if conventional war); and 3. low-level fragmented civil wars with the same scale of warfare as medieval feuds (if in africa)
