People used to make an evening of finding a black person, accusing them of a heinous crime, and then hanging them. Before that, they found a young woman and accused them of being a witch and burned her alive. Before that, they accused random people of talking to demons and buried them alive, or tied them to a rock and left them to die, or a million other horrible things. Sociopathic hellscape is the norm.

The future is already here -- it's just not evenly distributed. -William Gibson

Hmm, if the proles have time to write posts like this, they have more time to work. Better dial up their hours and raise prices.
