In 1933, preacher William Branham said he had a vision of an egg shaped car going down the road without a steering wheel and the seats faced each other and the occupants faced each other and appeared to be playing a board game or some such.
Say whaaaaat? Why do Americans think that communism is even in the same frikkin' solar system as their political landscape? Pavlov's dogs? For the avoidance of doubt the US is as far from ever being communist as it is from being launched en masse to Mars. The politics of the far right are just risible, and their time has ended.
You and Kev should just stop it. Just stop it!
Hey, pass some of that over here.

5G, 6G whatever.... "the network"..... if you want to go to Krogers or wherever, you will back your lightweight, electrically powered, drone-like vehicle out of your garage, punch in where you want to go, and then not touch a thing. "The network" will get you there safely with no risk of any type of airborne collision or anything else. 100% hands-off.
I know it sounds crazy, but its gonna happen.
