I wonder where this thinking comes from.
"The current administration won't do X because that would hurt Y."
Nevermind they have demonstrated over and over again they don't care what happens to Y.
It it just cope?
Is it overfitting being used to old school politicians who talk a big game but are afraid to destroy the whole country?
- throwaway1389z 11mo agoThe thinking comes from the understanding that even on a pirate ship, if the Captain tries to sink the ship, he will be offed. History has proven this again and again.
- Terr_ 11mo agoNot really: History has plenty of opposite examples as well. Some particularly striking cases involve cults, where the members are anything but exemplars of homo economicus. Yes, we were using a captain/ship metaphor for bad leadership ruining everything, but that doesn't mean everybody on board is structured as a pirate crew.
