What makes it advantageous?
That the name doesn't reveal gender.

So an undefined gender name is more hireable than a male name? Interesting.
The fake money will increase prices at the shops. h:
Its the same amount of unsolved problems that already had been known after Ayn Rand, but all believe that those problems will just magically go away and nobody has to solve them.
If it wasn't for the mention of Ayn Rand in that comment, I could've sworn you were talking about marxists. Sure, the unsolved problems are different, but the concept of them "magically going away" seems pretty much the same.
I doubt they'd like to hear that, though... :lol:
All it took had been new humans, the old ones had been broken.
As true as that unfortunately is, it *is* pretty magical as far as solutions go... :lol:
Now why does that sound very familiar...the simplest way to achieve this goal is just a very strict quality assurance....
Well, I would rather call it "contrarian", since it mostly replaces a government by a magical anti-government, without even creating something new. Its almost as stupid as "The government takes taxes. Libertarians don't pay taxes."

It's been really eye opening to see how weak the people who want to 'remove the weak' actually are. They spend their whole life prepping for the apocalypse but can't even go without a haircut for 8 weeks.Well, not THAT magical. Since humans can be mass produced by unskilled labour, the simplest way to achieve this goal is just a very strict quality assurance....
Which again brings us to COVID-19 and how radicals seem to think just removing the "weak" will make them strong...

That "unlikely" sounds at least like current fear of a mild infection resulting in no long-term immunity is not the biggest problem anymore and a herd immunity against the current virus at least possible. Of course, going that way is still painful and a vaccine a much better solution
even those who survive the bad cases are often no longer able to get back into their old job.
(If you don't believe that this is the picture, look at Singapore - lots of testing, low number of undetected cases, as of today about 30.000 cases, 11.000 recovered, 22 (!) dead.)
