The Gilded age wasn't stopped only for Larry Ellison to own TikTok, CBS, CNN, Warner and Paramount.

I’ve been gotten in more arguments on mainstream social media than I would have liked, so I am genuinely surprised that there are people who do tell you “You’re jealous because you’re not rich.” For a demographic that loves to call others beta, they sure are beta and love to be subservient getting breadcrumbs. It’s always projection.

As a literary nerd, I use it a lot.

I don’t known what to make of America. It’s either a spoiled child going on tantrum for not getting candy, or an entitled old man yelling at clouds. Either way, both are immature and entitled.

Cruelty is the point for Trump and many Republicans. And even if many GOP had initially thought they could control Trump, they are sorely mistaken. They played fire and got burned. FAFO. People never learned from history when they thought an imbecilic fascist figure could be “controlled” by conservatives, from Hitler to Mussolini.

Do people actually flex how much of less sleep they got? I never met anyone who do this.

People aren’t digging your comment because I think you haven’t distinguished between liberal social values of upholding personal liberty and free and fair elections, with the liberal economic value private ownership of capital. The former makes sense and non-negotiable. The latter is becoming obsolete overtime.

ITT: It’s better if USA balkanized Gee, I wonder who are trying to advocate for this? Surely Russia and China who are attacking Ukraine and encroaching an entire body of ocean, respectively, aren’t the ones with an army of online trolls who are promoting this.

Some lens allows you to see distant objects, while some allows the viewer to see things invisible under the naked eye and right underneath their noses. Different jobs require different optics.

Campaign against Trump and fascist Republicans instead of holding hands with them? Because you know, that’s what opposition parties ought to do? I’m sorry to say this but Americans are brainwashed by corporate media about dEcOrUm and reaching across the aisle, because it tames the masses from mobilising and recognising that both parties are captured and strung by corporate oligarchs. At least more and more progressive Americans are waking up from the silly corporate narratives and primarying corporate Democrats with progressives.

Both the Holodomor and Chinese famine were caused by politicians that ignore actual agrarian science from actual farmers with actual farming experience. The bad yield was caused precisely by this ignoring of proven science. And the Holodomor had been especially bad for Ukraine because it was the USSR’s bread basket because the Soviet authorities extracted as much food as possible, mirroring the Great Famine in Ireland when the British imperialists exported food from Ireland despite the massive starvation.

Wait until Le Pen or Bardella comes into power and remake the deal with American tech oligarchs, undoing Macron's push for strategic autonomy. As long as the right in France isn't killed, any attempt of decoupling will only be coupled back to US, because fascists have internationalise their ideas and coordination.

I think the Chevron CEO is feigning concerns so that oil companies won't get a bad PR. Everyone knows they got record profits because there is talk of windfall tax after all.

I think some of these commenters who want to stop media being political are bots. The elites want to suppress free thinking and freedom of expression.

Is this an Onlyfans promotion?

Russian, Indian, Egyptian...anywhere where there are poor people to exploit. Derek from Veritasium made a video studying and tracking troll farms years ago. A lot of those troll farms are from the usual suspected countries, where dire poverty push them to desperation, and are exploited by powers-that-be.

I bought my brother Kobo precisely because of being privacy and consumer friendly.

Why else are they pushing AI down our throats?

Probably a dividend investor. Or a trust fund kid.

Maybe the accent gave it away even if the French is perfect. I'm not a fluent French speaker but I learned it in school. And even among various French speakers I hear, I can tell the difference in accent.

I remember the meme, but i don't remember the news. So many things already happened.

You're invincible from teens to early twenty's. Around 25 is when you become officially old by most accounts (and even mentally I felt it), and your body slowly deteriorates and finding yourself increasingly more tired. The metabolism changes and can't handle alcohol and can't drink alcoholic drinks anymore because the liver can't handle it. Thankfully, there are nonalcoholic versions of my favourite drink but it's not the same as getting the buzz 🤣

There is nothing we can do about not being a trust fund kid! But on being a dividend investor, it is very much possible. I've heard of two janitors who are secretly millionaires because they invest. One is a Japanese who gets income from dividends from the investments he made.

Well like I said, Trump is stupid administratively, but he's a good conman. Einstein might be good at physics, but he is the last person you would ask on ecology. So to repeat what I said in my original comment: there is no one type of intelligence. It's not "just world" fallacy, one could argue that it's "unjust world" fallacy for someone idiotic could con an entire world. To deny that happened is burying one's head in the ground.

As it happens, Trump did squander his inheritance, but managed to claw back his fortune, first by money laundering for Russian mobsters, then by using his political office for personal gain. Fake it until you make it very much applies here.

It reinforces my point that he is not as stupid as he looks, still having been able to persuade and manipulate people despite having little to no resources. If you have seen the movie Catch Me if You Can, it does take certain skills to get away with so much scam.

Well, call me naïve, but they are pretty cautious around this kind of stuff in Germany, I doubt the US government has access to these kinds of records.

That's fair enough. But Trump's Project 2025 buddies have the intention to undermine Europe. Unfortunately, when America sneezes, everyone catches the cold.

I interpret the post relating to underprivileged folks still requiring government assistance regardless of how many welfare cheats there are.

Putin may have not captured Kyiv but conquered Washington.

It is said that the feeling of disgust is stronger among conservatives, which probably explains a lot.

Oh embargo, the usual scapegoat for the inherent failure of tankie policies. The collectivisation which removed experienced farmers to work on lands, along with Lysenko’s deliberate ignoring of established agricultural science in exchange to his whatever supposedly science he conjured up with, led to the worst famine since the Irish Famine. Mao was told not to order to kill sparrows because they hunt rats and locusts, pests that have worse effect on agriculture. Least obvious PR tankie answer.

Sure, the other two non-democracies you simp on is so much better and not engaging their own imperialist agenda and antithesis to your purported beliefs.

*paid Russian shills and useful idiots want US to collapse to promote Russia and China own imperialism. Happy?

Vote Democrats if there is no progressive alternative. But always primary progressives in Democratic primaries.

It’s scary and yet many people refuse to believe in climate change. I’ve had argument with a denier on social media. I can tell that the person is not being deliberately malicious, because he did let up on some points, but he’s the type to kick the can down the road and hopelessly hoping to deal with the problem later on.

If we’re not at sitting at the table, we’re on the menu.

Nice ad hominem. How about saying that to those in Uyghur concentration camps.

Farmer knowledge and know how wasn’t embargoed by the West. Lysenko and Mao were just idiots who didn’t listen to experts despite warnings. Also, people already knew about genetic inheritance long before the 20th century, even if DNA wasn’t discovered yet. You are just white washing the truth. Least obvious and prepared tankie shill answer.

What happens when education becomes commodified.

Looks like tankies and bots are working overtime.

Nobody is denying “NATO famine” (sure you are not a Russian bot for using the word NATO), but shills such as yourself do love to deny that famines didn’t happen or downplay the severity in communist states. Such at the fact that you mentioned “didn’t experience any famines until 1990s”. When did the Great Chinese Famine happen under Mao? How’s the view from St Petersburg Research, comrade? You must be working hard on the weekend not to be sent to the front lines to Ukraine.

Easy to speak from a high horse when you live in a place where there are better alternatives to Amazon. I live in Europe and either I go to the alternative but doesn’t deliver to Ireland, or the site has very limited selection.

I don’t use Google. I went to a Polish site and they don’t deliver to Ireland. You’re literally just not searching hard enough. That’s fair but now you see why there isn’t a European Amazon? Amazon makes things convenient. They operate on a single language and have good localised pages for many parts of the world. I could have my Firefox browser translate but it’s still done awkwardly. Europe doesn’t offer an alternate Amazon because of multiple languages and different structures because each countries do their own. The closest rival is Wildberries but there is sanction on Russia.

Just tell Schumer his shtick cost everyone two presidential elections.

At this stage, my backlog is the retirement playlist.

Okay Russian bot

only Russian and Chinese imperialists could advocate for the Good Thing FTFY

'Awww look at me, I’m so full of decorum! Why won’t you debate with me: a not bad faith actor!" Why am I seeing this idiotic tactic lately from obvious wumaos? It’s obviously not a coincidence. How about telling Xi not to inflict ad hominem to Uyghurs.

So this is what capitalists mean by “innovation”.

Oh right, of course you you don’t know Xi. You are a small fish getting small crumbs.

A lot of folks don’t really think about it. A man could be gone, but his ideas and legacy will live on. We are short term thinking and instinctive animals prone to collective suicide.

Literally Elon Musk and Tesla.

Nobody is denying American imperialism. The question is, do you acknowledge Russian and Chinese imperialism?
