Do you worry about your children having large blind spots in pop-culture making it difficult to relate to peers later in life when discussing things and relating the childhood? I've wondered how music taste was going to continue with out FM, but just today my daughter had a google meet with her class where they have to have teams and discuss songs. Between tiktok, youtube, and dance class she did quite well. I imagine 13 year old boys will talk about fortnite how we talk about mario or zelda...

Facts over feelings. I can’t (or should I say the bank can’t) install a kernel on my house... don’t they own it? Basing ownership on the ability to install a kernel seems like quite a few of my friends own nothing.

No. I was referring to the difference between China and the U.S. WW2 is a good point to look at how the two world powers grew to be very different(I intrepid what you were saying was that they are the same) you know the whole 1949 communist thing, cold war into the Korean war, the U.S. having nukes and having just dropped then five years before could do it again but did not. I think that shows something not to negate some of the very horrible things that were done. If we move forward we get to 1989, Tiananmen Square. I'm just saying the two are different and enjoy a mostly open and free internet.
