Assuming we’re thinking of the same place, you have to deal with a large group of people who have been fooled, and are about to get very angry and need a target they can reach for their anger. Highlighting mid to high level members of their party leadership as the people to blame allows them to hold their great leader blameless, protecting their egos, while at the same time ripping down the pillars that prop up that same leader. Calling for new blood to support… whatever leader you’re talking about, and voting out “those idiots that aren’t giving him what he needs and so we all are suffering” allows the malleable followers to self destruct the party apparatus like ants eating away the bones of an elephant.

I personally like the theory that they caught him using five eyes data, and skip the step where they write “US citizen” in the transcripts

“ let’s get you a scrum-rifle and see what you can do to improve your stats.”

You count on them for support, I’m guessing. The only way cleanly getting out is to be able to accept the consequence they may set of cutting you off if you fail to uphold their beliefs. This is a people problem, not a religious problem, and religious people are as bad as the next person.

Did anyone fix the roof in the one house in London, Tx yet?

Matamata is really nice.

How about: name a country and name the smallest city you recognize from there. Like New Zealand you could say Rotarua

Hm, that’s a journey anywhere. Assuming money is no object, you’re 8 hrs from hawaii, and 3.5-6 from florida depending on layovers and where. Europe is only 6-8 from you if you stay in western europe.

Having been to both of your choices many times, I’d suggest Kauai for its rugged beauty and hiking.

Have you considered taking him to jersey shore to remind him how good he has it at home? :)

Where are you traveling from? West coast I’d say Hawaii, southern us I’d say playa del carmen and cancun.

Like all positions, this is nuanced. There is a lot of rebuilding on hold in Maui due to toxicity concerns with debris. So locals are rather upset tourists are getting lodging while some locals have trouble being housed. Yet at the same time, tourism is the economy. So the locals can’t both want people to stay away from them and expect their money… this isn’t a marriage.

I own a couple small companies, and I blow off steam with Lemmy when I have time.
