Sometimes you gotta get creative.

Boo this man!

Congrats to the brave men and women who made that victory possible. A win for labor rights anywhere is a win for workers everywhere.

This is of course after they spent decades consolidating power, wealth and influence with those same IP laws, while snuffing out all smaller competitors.

The speed with which Americas tech CEOs have embraced this new oligarchic system is astounding. It’s almost like that was the plan all along. Almost.

A stalemate where China is locked into its territorial waters and has to rebuild its military while suffering a military blockade, medium and long range bombardment - while America retains freedom of navigation and inter-continental trade?

Doesn’t sound like a stalemate to me. It sounds like a slow death. China is even more reliant on trade than we are and in a hot war, they lose the majority of their trading partners.

What does America lose?

How so? China has a manpower advantage, but they don’t have the capability to project that advantage beyond the mainland/local territorial waters. In what way would America not “come off well”, when the enemy has no credible way of actually getting to us, and no way of supporting it’s economy without international trade? Are they going to island hop from one American defensive position to the next, all the way across the Pacific, while also securing shipping lanes through the Indian ocean for the oil to make that possible?

Sounds like a bad time - for them.

Argentina and Spain are good examples. Peron and Franco organized ratlines for Nazis fleeing the Nuremberg trials.

Yeah what you said - fire him out of a cannon.

The fact he hired a stylist to help him look more like Jack Harlow is hilarious. Bro, you’re 40. Trying to look like Augustus Caesar is finally age appropriate - why are you changing it up NOW?

The taxes will continue until manufacturing improves.

Depends how you phrase the question. If you ask people “do you think the nation of Israel has a right to exist” (are you a Zionist) it probably would be closer to 60%.

Plenty of “Zionists” (in the non-slur sense) are sympathetic to both parties. It’s just that internet discourse on the subject has become so radicalized and binary that it gets lost in the conversation.

“I dont believe AI will ever be more than essentially a parlar trick that fools you into thinking it’s intelligent.”

So in other words, it will achieve human-level intellect.
