#Competititive
Thinking about our athletes at the world games and their stella performances.
I wonder if not being exposed to a virus for 18 months, then being vacinated before going out in the world has given them a competititive advantage over the people who got infected during that time, and since.

Exactly. This piece by Thomas Zimmer unpacks 21st century authoritarianism and is a good primer on more modern "competititive authoritarianism"--will help folks prepare plans and build resilience and mobilize to restore or remake the American republic. thomaszimmer.substack.com/p/what-autho...
What Authoritarianism Means
Even critical observers underestimated the speed and scope of the Trumpist assault, they overestimated democratic resilience. What is America now, and what comes next?

Imagine you're a triathlete. You're not very good at the swim, but fine at cycling and running.

Why choose to lengthen the swim portion of a competititive race, and draw more attention to it, when you could push for more cycling or running (things your competitors aren't very good at).

Labour, eh?

Tour - Vuelta cooks your Wolrds + italian classics. Tough to combine all and be competititive

yes i agree i always supported competititive districts. i lived in the state maryland which to be fair the most gerrymandered state in the east (with 7-1 D). i didnt like it before either but considering the racial gerrymandering happening in the southern states like bama l'm perfectly fine with it.

If we could estimate how many competititive events there are a week, and then a guess so how many brand new £500 armies there are in each. Imagine there’s 1000 brand new competitive armies every week, that’s 10 totally brand new armies every single week across 100 weekly events.

The idea that there is a "win-win" in giving the UK access in an industry that they have a huge competititive advantage in, "in exchange for" youth visas that the British youth are desperate for, strike me as nonsensical.

What does Europe get?
