    It is called “thinking ahead of the consequences”, and it is done with every mayor decision.

    Better than waiting until they happen to respond.

      Following that line of logic, if the Feds say that we should lower emissions, you’ll cry out about how they’re going to take your car.

      Somehow you’ve conflated risk planning and mitigation with telling random what ifs on the Internet.

        That’s not what flanderisation is. I don’t know why you keep repeating this word.

        Flanderisation is when a previously varied an complex fictional character gets one or a few of their traits exaggerated more and more over time, until it becomes their entire personality.

        E.g. Ned Flanders, who was originally just a foil to Homer Simpson. Friendlier, more devout in belief, less potty-mouthed, physically fitter, nicer (while still attainable) home, untroubled family, etc. He represented what Homer wanted to be and was jealous of.

        Over time he was flanderised to just being an uber-religious nut with essentially nothing else to his personality.

        Flanderisation is not when people are weary of how technology is being used and will continue to be used by large businesses and governments to track what we do and build extensive profiles on us.
