I live in a very red part of Florida. They’ve all been pretty nice to me. Of course, I’m white, my baby is blonde haired and blue eyed, and I’m in the military. They usually get pretty surprised when I open my mouth and start spouting crazy commie stuff like Trans Rights are Human rights.

I worked with a guy that was a hard-core conservative, like just shy or real far-right talking points. Anyway he told me he doesn’t watch the news. Not that he only watches fox news, I mean he doesn’t watch any news at all. He gets his information from Facebook and tiktok

Not really. If they schedule oil changes every 6 months the mileage check is to see if they should also schedule like a transmission check so you don’t have to keep coming back

Ehhh… Doctors have a hell of a lot of administrative paperwork for each patient they have to do. That’s where the actual time goes. At least for Emergency Department doctors. I can’t speak to private practice docs.

You sound like a weird tomato version of Gaston.

Worst they can do is deny me entry to the country

Well the worst they can do is

Put me on a no-fly list, terrorist watchlist or even arrest me

Not having jurisdiction has famously never stopped China. Just ask Tibet. Or any country that wants to sail international waters in the south China sea. Or Hong Kong. Or Taiwan.

Lastly, You are correct about China not sharing data with FVEY countries but don’t think for a second that they are not sharing that info with Russia, Iran, or any other countries that actively seek to harm.

If a country is going to in some way use my data against me, I’d at least like to know the language and what my rights in that country are.

You jest but honestly if I’m going to be spied on and my data harvested either way I’d prefer if it was my home country. At least Theoretically something could be done about it like petition my elected officials or sue. Can’t really do that with a foreign country.

There is no way I could handle Subnautica in VR. I was scared enough playing normally.
