They actually could if they wanted to. Easily in fact. I know it is silly to be mad at them for lying about it.

Why would the Virginia government go agains the wishes of the residents who voted them in to prop up data centers?

I love that people are willing to all individually leave their homes rather than go deal with the source of the problem directly. Americans are such good little piggies they will do anything their overlords demand of them rather than even consider doing something to fix the obvious sources of problems

Citizens are not allowed to cross property lines, unlike the severe externalities of the data center.

Because the cops would probably shoot them if they did. People with generally stable lives and families are usually pretty risk adverse unless things get really bad. Having to go stay in a Motel 6 for a few days ain't that bad compared to getting a Billy club to the head.

These are most likely Republiklanners. They’re cattle, they probably left so they could pay for the diesel

Americans were all full-blown anarchists during covid and swore up and down covid is worth it for them to mindlessly consoom! They think the same thing over climate change.

But when porky does it? “Well, he’s rich, and I like rich people. So I’ll obey! Porky’s the winner!”

It's cuz they knew violating Covid rules probably wouldn't incite direct police violence (if they're white). Storming a data center would likely result in you at least getting pepper sprayed.

Not anarchists, but ANCAPS, literally saying fuck you to the government trying to shield them so they could go buy their treats.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 21 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

But that would be a crime!
