I think op is right. A new law that says you have to own real estate to vote would have been unconstitutional before and is not now.

Sounds like they would just have banned them all at once

The two parties are not going to figure this out. I think we are in the middle of one of those major shifts in the landscape. Probably still end up with only two, and one of them might keep its name, but it seems to me this country's leadership has simply outlived its ability to sense the world around it. They've patched over all sensory organs with some kind of insider-curated feed.

I'm not op. I like your mention of the club, though, thanks.

Oh, funny, I was thinking maybe it was written for two audience with different terminology where one names wind by where it's going and the other by where it came from. Somehow the truth is more aggravating.

Would it help then, if they used a new device with vpn? Almost the entire list on amiunique seems device/browser based. They could just keep a burner phone for the purpose?

It's an interesting comparison because it seems to me dueling comes from times and places where personal reputation was much more important to life destiny than now due to a lack of protective legal and other institutional infrastructure that dampens the risks in living and working with strangers.

So maybe any rising sensitivity in the present is due to the feeling that this infrastructure is weakened.

I like your idea, but it just brings to mind how fragile all of our digital media is, not to mention the surrounding tech necessary to read and understand it. What we know works is to press your message to the future, grocery bill, whatever, into clay and then accidentally burn the city down around it -- good for millennia.

I wonder if it would take more or less time with auto-complete.

Maybe just an awkward sales agent, or they thought you were mad at them for in their mind trying to help. I decline phone number and zip code all the time. Also been using someone else's phone number at grocery stores for years -- started by mistake. I don't care about accumulated points or whatever but discounts at grocery store are pretty significant for me.

But I understand your frustration in general. Keep up the good fight :)
