AI Highlights
  • - They push a materialist view via trolls while claiming to discuss DC events.
  • - Closure of RI Service Center sparked Real ID chatter; no one noted layoffs.

They are pretending they offer a discussion on current events in DC but they have commandeered powerful trolls that offer only a specific viewpoint which emphasizes materialism and shallow thinking. In case in point, yesterday they posted on If your Drivers License expired fear not...Rhode Island Service Center closed.

Most commentators were bragging and comparing notes on Real ID and not one person commented on sorry that it closed or workers there laid off. We posted a review to this effect and that Washingtonians tend to be more worried about the color of their underwear or make of their sperry siders. (At least that tends to be the Popville perspective). The comment points out how Covid had hit this area harder than it would seem even if mayor somewhat disingenuously stated that there was a challenge keeping the center staffed.

Actually the place had been remarkably busy preCovid and so the staffing should be less an issue than providing adequate service.

We also joked in the false economy perhaps Washingtonians would notice if there sewer got backed up or drinking water was purple. Afterall standards can go down if the staff cant keep up with changing conditions...
