Federalist Co-Founder EXPLODES After SCOTUS Rulings, America Is FRACTURED
"You give liberals Neuralink and say, listen, if you put this on and go in the pod, you can be a dragon. You can be Frodo Baggins or Harry Potter or to a certain people, you can be a woman and you can be a man. And you know what they're going to do? They're going to plug me in. Liberals would be gone. They'd never vote again. Every single liberal would take the free pass to be Harry Potter. And conservatives would pay half their income to fund those machines after a hundred years. There'd be no machines left because they're not having kids and they'd cease to exist."
Pool advocates for a Neuralink-based virtual reality system where liberals could live in pods experiencing simulated realities, effectively removing them from the political system. He proposes conservatives should pay a 50% tax to fund these facilities, arguing that liberals would voluntarily opt out of society and eventually die out without reproducing. Pool frames this as a solution to prevent civil conflict between left and right.
