Starlink is the main viable solution to this problem since it doesn't require laying cables. I don't know if Bob has commented on it, but it will finally provide somewhat decent internet coverage to remote backwaters like Appalachia which are currently losing population and might make them viable places to work again. West Virginia lost 3.7% of its population since 2010 so not much is going to happen there unless something changes.

It's still going to be shit and reliant on signals not being interfered with by weather. I remember a friend of mine using satellite; his connection died like a frog in a blender.

If you want to make a section of a place not shit, you need money and time to make it not shit. A pretty big amount of money and time.

Bob doesn't want people in flyover country having amenities. He wants everyone to have a miserable bugman life like himself. It's unfair to him to have a higher quality of life in the country, where there are fewer people, cleaner locales, more nature, and stronger traditions.

Didn't he say that everyone should be herded into cities and that the countryside should be left as a pristine reserve for wild animals and illegals?

It has always amazed me that people from the cities seem to think we all live like it’s 100 years ago out in the boonies. Sure sometimes it takes a bit of driving to get to places but it’s a small price for cheap quiet living where most folks leave you alone.

 

[Doctor Placebo]

Bob hates it because it's not Marvel.

Probably. I actually expected him to defend Wonder Woman 1984 because it's made by a feminist wahman and the "wrong people" hate it, but I forgot just how extreme Robert's brand loyalty and us vs. them thinking is.

 

[Captain Marvelous]

I saw this meme on Reddit that reminded me of Bob.

Plus you have gas prices any europoor would give their right arm for. You can be on the dole and have a car.

So he's saying all illegals are feral savages? Dangerously /based/

Can confirm. $2.09 a gallon right now. But hey that big city life right?

Haven't followed this cow in a short while. What's he been up to, since he got BTFO'd by that thot?

I wonder if Bob is patiently waiting for the day he gets to go to space to talk to aliens like he said we would under Hilary.

I'd rather the aliens anally probe Blob than a poor cow. Cows are useful.

4) ”learn to code”. You do realise that many coal miners can't just become tech bros, that the supply of tech bros outstrips the demand, that Appalachia doesn't have the infrastructure required to build another Silicon Vally anyway and that coal mining is still essential, mainly because environmentalists in the US have spent the last 30 years attacking nuclear power?

and besides, aren't all those jobs, like most unskilled white-collar work, being outsourced to the far east?
after all, it's much cheaper to pay an Indian or Filipino to code than have a westerner do it

And smarter, chiller and with better propension for verbal communication.
All the blob has going in comparison to cows is flatulence.

Let me actually remind you that he seriously believes the only thing stopping space colonisation is Pmurt.

That's because he's too stupid to understand why that is a bad thing.

Never mind that Trump proposed the idea of a "Space Force" in the first place.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Never mind that Trump proposed the idea of a "Space Force" in the first place.

Well yeah, but he's the "wrong" person to be saying it. Like when Tom Cruise talked about how important Covid safety is, it should have been Samuel L Jackson.

If Space Force had set up a program to establish a human presence on the moon, and the actual construction began under Biden, Bob would be going on about how it's so amazing that Biden is leading us into the superior future even though it was set up under Trump. He did a blog post or something where he acknowledged that Obama was anti-space, but said he still voted for him because it would "lead us into the future." Except that the future, according to him, is space travel. It's just one of his many, many, inconsistencies that his ego justifies as intelligence.

Has he ever talked about anything else regarding the "superior future" that doesn't relate to space?

 

[Malagor the dank omen]

I somehow doubt it involves an expansion of industry, thanks to new opportunities in new planets, terraforming, agriculture and getting potential colonists to be self reliant.
So far, i think the only thing we heard was the moon wheat tirade.
