His goal achieved: blocking rail. More wasn't important.
Since Trump and the tech bros I learned a lot about swarm behavior and also neurodivergence.
For one, the (human) swarm is generally really dumb, so roughly the lowest common denominator. That itself is not the issue, but it forgets. It's really really forgetful and easily distracted.
So just throw up the next idea and everything will focus on that. It's even worse that the media is mostly owned by a few, adding to that.
Basically all this results in enabling this behavior. I remember, but most do not. That's where neurodivergence comes in, if we're focused we do not get diatracted. We remember better in that case, but few listen.
Oh and those that were ridiculed also never get an apology. So can you blame them for decoupling from the fate of humanity?
