I had a guy whose pitch was “Ok, you’re the president.”

That was the game idea. The whole thing.

What’s weird is that I don’t remember the Chapo guys doing any of that, they seem pretty solidly democratic socialist.

I guess that’s what happens when you let your community mods be Putin bots or whatever dumbfuckery went on.

People have been told their entire lives that the GDP of their nation matters without ever considering what it actually represents, or how it actually went up.

Great, number go up, but why and who actually benefitted.
