They’re also not as well made.

My kids newer fire station set has had multiple blocks crack in the last couple years, and he’s not rough on them. He bashes his action figures up but simply builds legos.

Fortunately my mom hung onto my stash and we were able to swap out parts right away. The aged coloring adds artistic texture.

Still a bummer to spend $30-$40 and if you don’t have a bunch of spares when blocks crack, you’re left with an set that can never be completely built.

Been wondering if a 3D printer is the way to go for this sort of thing now. Make action figures in parts.

Government is just humans.

There’s no reason to believe any organization of humans has your personal interests at heart.

Ostensibly politicians can be replaced. Despite believing government to be inherently corrupt, we still seem to think the ledger of ownership is inherently correct and incorruptible.

The mental gymnastics everyone goes through to demonize government and accept privatization which locks them out of accounts, absconds funds, and offers no path to remediation, resulting in posts here hoping a Big Tech Corp worker happens to be browsing is pretty stunning display of how media has influenced our beliefs
