If some recruiter ghosted you, don't bother them and move on

Yeah, you should also be a good parent for it to happen.

Since most of the machines I need to backup are VMs, I do it by the means of hypervisor. I'd use borg scheduled in crontab for physical ones.

Since I work from home... this is totally acceptable.

Like, did you meet a person who unironically blames satan for everything bad that's happening to them?

What's so bad about the laundry if you have a washing machine?

I'd say it's post irony

The next election is the mechanism that makes them fulfill the promises they’ve made during their campaign

Why are you saying this? Who's the target audience of this bs? What makes you say that if it's demonstrably false? Elected politicians don't keep their promises, they just don't.

If your politicians aren’t afraid of losing the next election

Is Trump scared to loose the next election?

what is wrong with me hiring someone to hire more people?

It's perfectly fine, but unrelated to the question at hand. You don't hire politicians.

What is your counterargument other than “no”?

"No" is actually a stronger argument than yours bc you're making a positive statement here and the burden of proof is on you.

You can’t own people, you never did, what are you trying to ask here?

I dunno. I guess your initial analogy was shit that explained nothing. Don't use analogies then.

No wtf. Democracy is state that holds elections. Wtf is "owned and controlled by the people"? How are people supposed to control the government? The government is controlled by govt officials. Common people don't control shit. How can a government be owned by people? Is government even a property that can be owned? That doesn't make any sense.

How is democracy related to ownership?

No. "Socialized medicine" is not "people owning the means of production"
