it was named after the anaconda copper company, which basically owned the town in the late 1800's early 1900's.

butte had the mines

anaconda had the giant smelters

But even from that pic, I can tell that it's become the populous center, thus why it's turned blue, I'm sure. You see that same grey blight in most major cities.

(for any lurkers butte was a gigantic mining town that puts any other mining town to shame with the sheer volume of ore)

butte has been blue for 100 years

because of the history there

That reminds me, I've got Factorio in the background that I've been ignoring.

they actually elected a self-defined socialist to mayor 50ish years ago.

kek

Pinochet wasn't elected

I wonder if the social credit system would be secure...

because if 4chan got in...

idk

I mean the social credit system is one of the scariest things in the world today

Only if your not on the side of the chinese communist party

I can imagine it now: some anon gets into the system and sets dear-leader's score to -1488

The leader doesn't need a score

or writes a bot to randomize people's scores
