Why are marbles so expensive? - Discuss Online
The used market is more interesting so I haunt estate auctions. I would like to
make a paper holder for a specific space so I’m casually looking for a handful
of marbles to sandwich between some pieces of hardwood to make it so. Wow. An

This is one more piece of the mix. The manipulation of working class into
policing working class presented here is spot on.
Why this video? It’s a solid, short summary of an idea. That, and I like her.

Among other things. The power level of this abject manipulation is frightening.
Even so.
