You mean the ones currently being eaten alive by AI?

Additional point here, things getting drastically worse than they currently are is an inevitable consequence, admitted or otherwise of continuing on our current leadership’s current path. We’re not just comparing our current quality of life to the historic golden age of unions and onshore labor...

if we get sent to war with Iran, this oughta be our generation's Fortunate Son

First off, the migration started decades ago, when the total devaluation of human labor looked like science fiction rather than a plausible near-future prediction and due to all the Useful Idiots and propaganda, can't be course-corrected quickly. Second, they're not just being imported to swell...

Anyway, my attempt at cataloging possible outcomes: AI doesn't live up to expectations and stagnates at essentially its current maximum capacities, all the technocrats who're building it lose their money on a bad investment. The only jobs taken are irrelevant pseudo-work with sitting in...

Doesn’t require a stable breeding population of Bigfeet, numerous enough to be seen more frequently or captured. There may only be a couple dozen Bigfeet in existence at a time, never encountering each other or reproducing and the “species” might temporarily go extinct any number of times before...

Speculative evolution theory, they’re human. No, not like that, instead, scenario; tomorrow, amateur big game hunters bring in a sasquatch corpse. The chaos begins when the DNA is tested and isn't a new species, the three meter tall thousand plus pound corpse is genetically human. More than...
