How the fuck would he know? His cheap ass never pays for anything.

He’d never get anything done.

A modern car would be pretty impressive to someone from the 70s, even without the ability to fly.

“not chronically online”. Has a Lemmy account.

Could you imagine showing a modern game console to someone from the 70s?

I met him once when his band played at my base. Had a long conversation about building a fence and how he was impressed with my fence building ability. I told him he was great in The Stand and he said “Really? Thank you for saying that. Nobody ever mentions The Stand to me.”

Better yet, seize their assets and make them try to make a go at it as a regular person.

or at least that’s what I’ve been shown

You ever think you may not have been shown the whole picture?

He’s not going to listen to you.

Careful, people don’t like to be told that we are doing things.

You haven’t espoused any tactics.

It’s worse than reddit.
