ThEy wErE cOmInG rIgHt 4 us!!

You are right. I just corrected my comment.

The dieselgate scandal is why I am so disappointed when I heard that Volkswagen outsold Tesla in Europe for the number one spot since the start of the year. I have been hoping it would a more scrupulous company (and non-Chinese EV manufacturer) that took the number one spot for European EV cars sold.

If true, I never donated to Wikipedia before anyhow.

The plague is actually what ended feudalism in Europe.

I really want Tesla stocks to go down enough that it will cost Musk a huge chunk of his wealth. But the stocks have recovered. Although, I think Tesla stocks will continually go down in the future so long as Musk is the CEO. I hope that Musk doesn't get replaced until his shares tanked drastically!

Stocks isn't necessarily done on vibes. You'd be surprised that there is a pattern to the stock market that you can take advantage of to make money. Unlike gambling where there isn't really much of a chance of winning if you do the math (because a lot of gambling are rigged), with stocks you can make a calculated risk but with surer chance of earning big if you do the proper research on what you're investing in and the stock market itself. Sure there is insider trading, but most stocks typically go back up again if the fundamentals of the instrument are sound. I mean, how many ordinary people earn six figures or become millionaires from playing casinos in comparison to those who invested in the stock market?

I do think there is psyops to wedge the progressives and liberals. However, this benefits the blue MAGA nonetheless. The blue MAGA kept going on about the "lesser evil" and "perfect is the enemy of good" phrases. It occured to me that it is a thought terminating response from criticising the Democratic Party from actually being active to go further left in order to finally quash the far-right. Moreover, those phrases are also usually conservative phrases to convince people to accept the status quo. This make the Democratic party conservative. And the problem with conservatives is they would rather side with fascists, than to rein the ills of capitalism to keep the monied interests happy. The right and conservative parties in 1934 Germany elected to give Hitler absolute power while the left opposed it. Ninety years later in the US, which party allowed the GOP bill to gut welfare programmes? It is the Democrats with Chuck Schumer. Progressives have the last laugh over liberals/blue MAGA being wrong on "vote blue, no matter who" nonsense (although fascists indeed would like the left to have the last laugh before sending us to concentration camps). The Democrats would vote with MAGA regardless of whether or not they have the majority anyway!

Tesla share price has been going up and down in the past couple of months. You are correct it went up 40% broadly speaking, but it is because people have just been pumping and dumping. I guarantee Tesla stocks will crash again as long as Musk is the CEO and the board of directors don't get rid of him.

You can still short as day trade even if the overall market or stocks is going down by exploiting the price movements. But that is more stressful I must admit.

Competitors have outsold Tesla as part of boycott, so the stocks won't go back to its peak at $400-410. What is happening is that it simply became pump and dump for most traders (I have been shorting it myself).

Nah. I would like to be proven wrong, but Americans have been lobotomised by media from all sources to accept their misery and slave themselves to oligarchs.

This is what I don't understand. Yes, corporations pander to marginalised demographics, but I have not once seen them lose significant income or have been boycotted. Fascist corporations, meanwhile, lost customers and stocks like Target and Tesla.

Like really, who's going broke? Methinks this is projection from the right, or disinformation from state or non-state actors alike to keep the population divided.

Well, the fact is that there are also a LOT of dumb customers willing to buy crap.

As much as everyone love Oblivion...it all started from there with the $9 horse armour DLC.

God knows why.

Yet somehow there’s enough of a customer base for that that they sell it.

Kids. Fucking kids. Thankfully I am never that stupid to buy individual DLCs even when I was a child, which is compounded by familial circumstances and education, but kids will be kids. Either they stole their parent's credit card to pay for useless virtual items, or they were spoiled and never taught with financial literacy.

I love Pocket! However, as what most people mentioned, there are too many articles to keep up. I have years worth of backlog.

TIL Pocket is owned by Mozilla. I thought they are partners.

Oh that's the new Wii controller.

The Spanish prime minister-- Pedro Sanchez-- is a political animal. He managed to maul and contain the far-right in a snap election he called. He has also spurred the economy and is growing, because he integrated many migrants well into the labour force. And even baser is that his government is pro-Palestine. All he had done in the past years granted him the political and social capital to enact policies that might ruffle the feathers of monied and powerful interests.

I hope Sanchez's government will survive any politicking against his progressive policies. The housing crisis is happening across the developed world, and oligarchs will propagandise the public into believing that the crisis is unsolvable, because resolving this will eat their bottomline.

There is a Saudi tribe that celebrate a flower festival with men wearing chained flowers over their heads.

High heel shoes originated in India as worn by horsemen to hold themselves during horse rides. The shoes then became fashionable amongst European nobility including men. Eventually, high heels became almost exclusively a feminine fashion for some reason.

A lot of gender stereotypes are really social constructs. As a multicultural man, if I am asked what does it mean to be a man, I don't really have an answer. If one travels the globe with an open mind, they will find that a lot of their preconceptions growing up will be challenged.

There is a book advocating for UBI, which detailed studies showing it is actually easier and cost effective to just give homeless people unconditional cash grants. Contrary to expectations, 9/10 homeless folks cleaned themselves and looked for accommodation.
