              I think a lot of people do, but everyone has been convinced they are alone in their realization. It’s part of the game. We see way less allies than we actually could have. No one is going to advertise a popular awakening

              I assume it’s because figuring out how to specifically target individuals is too difficult for a modern MBA, so they cheat and just try to force people into their easy to sort bins instead.

          Yeah, I don’t bet, i refuse to use dating apps, but I DO love beer. But i look out for small stuff that I haven’t tried before, and usually shoot for local stuff when i travel. Like, I’m not gonna drink a Budweiser if i am at a bar in Detroit. I’m gunning down whatever seasonal Atwater brew i can’t get in Ohio, or trying to get my hands on some Black Rock brewery.
