    Seems like it’s out of some old CIA book about toppling governments. Slow a government down to make it less efficient by drowning them in red tape.

      This was originally part of a handbook developed by British intelligence for spies in WW2 who had infiltrated the German military and government. How to drag them down through bureaucracy.

    During the Biden admin, Calibri was the default font that shipped with office. Now it is Aptos.

    Government employees had small window where they didn’t need to change the stupid fonts in office. Now they have that stupid busy work all over again.

    This is omega level bureaucracy.

      I mean, it’s like 30 seconds to look up and change the default font in Word. It might even be part of the settings IT can change on a network level.

        Still stupid bureaucratic nonsense from a party and politician that has constantly campaigned about ending bureaucratic nonsense.

    America has been a post-satirical “society” ever since the first time they claimed to be the land of the free but this is just getting out of hand, lol.

    “Look, I just want to know if there’s any way we could possibly increase our level of idiocy. Or, failing that, manage to become even bigger assholes. I’m not asking for much here, people.”
