get rid of the useless eaters, the simulation


Motherboard | SimCity players have discussed a variety of creative strategies for their virtual homelessness problem. They’ve suggested waiting for natural disasters like tornadoes to blow the vagrants away, bulldozing parks where they congregate, or creating such a woefully insufficient city infrastructure that the homeless would leave on their own.
You can read all of these proposed final solutions in Matteo Bittanti's How to Get Rid of Homelessness, "a 600-page epic split in two volumes documenting the so-called 'homeless scandal' that affected 2013's SimCity."
"I started to find the discussion about homeless in SimCity way more interesting than SimCity itself because people were talking about the issue in a very—how can I say, not racist, not classist, but definitely peculiar way," said Bittanti, a visiting professor at IULM University in Milan who spent seven years teaching in the Bay Area.
Bittanti collected, selected, and transcribed thousands of these messages exchanged by players on publisher Electronic Arts' official forums, Reddit, and the largest online SimCity community Simtropolis, who experienced and then tried to "eradicate" the phenomenon of homelessness that "plagued" SimCity.

That does it for me. He is a certified to lead us through the cloud of smoke and onward to salvation. ::)


Ahh but then I see that he allowed Katy Perry to slip away from their "holy matrimony" and I wonder what about her breasts he did not see value in to change his ways.

Not worthy of reading past this phrase.


For he is merely a "surfer" and not an honest broker that uses PROPORTIONALITY as a check on his imagination of what HE WANTS THE TRUTH about the world to be so that his theories and ideology would come be aligned.

Tits mean nothing when you have a revolution to lead. In fact, they get in the way.

One of the stupidest comments of all time!!!

Overseers wielding the violence monopoly over the past 40 years under the so-called war on drugs have disenfranchised or destroyed 25% + of adult black lives in America. http://subrealism.blogspot.com/2014/12/rule-of-law-cant-get-job-cant-vote.html

That you don't comprehend this fact is testimony to your own bizarre solipsism. The crime and criminality that accompanies being the poorest and shut out of the economy, the vote, any other mainstream prospects - pales in comparison to the magnitude of the crime committed against blacks during the sustained effort to liquidate 15% of able-bodied persons no longer required for non-existent manufacturing jobs.

Everything else is stupid conversation....,
