This comment really doesn't help your case. The race is notable because minorities in the U.S. have not engaged in this sort of behavior against us. I imagine it's because they're more used to the law being antagonistic against them, or because they come from other countries like OP where the law isn't traditionally threatened in such a frivolous manner. I'm calling out a very specific kind of American, which I think anyone whose worked customer service in the U.S. knows very well.

I work at a company that often gets threatened to be sued by entitled white people. The important thing to remember is that these dumbass Americans have no idea how their legal system works.

What typically happens, in my experience, is an entitled white dumbass takes issue with a rule or requirement they were told but ignored. They'll make a big grandstanding show of threatening the lawsuit, because they think if they look scary enough you'll give them whatever they wanted. Then they'll get to the lawyers, who without fail will explain to them how they have no legal grounds for a case. Sometimes, if the dumbass is exceptionally entitled, they'll even shop around a few law firms trying to find anyone to take the case. Eventually, we just stop hearing about these people, because they give up on trying to sue us. They're all talk and no bite.

It would do nothing to wealth inequality. The assets the current billionaires own would just become valued at a trillion dollars, or even a quadrillion depending on how badly devalued the dollar became.

Legally, I was born in the American South. Now, I haven't been down there except to visit family for a few decades, but yer darn-tootin I'm gonna keep using the dumb language I grew up with. Ain't nothin y'all can do to stop me, no matter how many dicks I suck.

Being post-scarcity doesn't mean we no longer need to educate people, that would have us fall into regression. Even if there's no more work required to be done, people still need a basic level of training to engage in the arts and scientific study.

Shadowrun is very big on the split between the natural world and the technical world, IIRC even medically necessary implants still weaken a person's connection to the natural world.

That doesn't mean you have to stop trying!

He didn't create the field though? Psychology existed before Freud, Wundt was putting out journals while Freud was still in college. If anything, Freud ruined a lot of psychology's early momentum, and largely contributed to it being seen as an illegitimate science even today.

His crackpot theories made psychology a laughingstock of a science and basically killed interest in cognitive research for several decades. I will always hop on board to slander his fraud ass. Maybe he was too high to know what he was doing, I don't know if I accept that excuse.

No no, say it with your chest. Freud is absolutely a coke-fiend fraud.
