“We’re going to need the help of robots and other forms of, uhhh, I guess you could say employment,” he said, shrugging. “We’re going to be employing a lot of artificial things.”

    That probably does something to it as well, but ok then change it to “I can’t believe that he was actually elected”.

        I don’t take anything for granted in North America. We just elected the most obviously corrupt person to be mayor of Montréal and even the total left/right votes between the four major parties skewed significantly right because we’re stupid as hell.

          I think in any healthy society he would have crushed with like 70% of the vote but he barely won which is pretty sad.

            Against his competion a healthy society would have looked at Cuomo and thrown him in the fucking garbage and Mamdani would have gotten 90%. Ya’ll gotta raise your standards, even if you don’t raise your expectations.
