It wouldn't surprise me if we found out that the problems Boeing is having aren't unique to them.

"American fascism is entirely due to Russian operatives and trolls" is laughable because of how hard it glosses over the steps you have taken to ensure fascism in your own country.

I'm not American, and it's not fascist thinking to point out the fact that Russia is literally running a fascist playbook to encourage aligned fascism globally.

Pointing that out isn't meant to excuse the existence of fascists within the US; if anything, its about the idea that there are fascists to work with in every country, and they're coordinating their efforts.

The difference between the US and Russia is there are still people like the head of the FTC trying to curtail corporate power however they can. Russia only does it to enforce loyalty amongst its oligarchs.

This idea that Russia is both too weak to win a war against Ukraine but also strong enough to covertly topple the world's foremost superpowers is honestly fascist thinking.

The too weak/strong argument is fallacious in this instance because the dimensions we're comparing aren't equivalent. A nation that heavily invests in intelligence and asymmetric warfare at the expense of conventional warfare capabilities will be strong in the former and weak in the latter. In Ukraine's case, Russia thought they were strong in both and found out that they weren't quite as capable as they had led themselves to believe. That's why we're seeing them ramp up the tactics as described in the article.

Once Trump pulls the plug on Ukraine's funding and access to US intelligence systems, they'll fall to Russia because they won't have enough of either capability to win a war of attrition with a larger, richer state.

False equivalence.

Maybe a skill-testing question for account sign ups?

I guess all those delicious faces have what leopards crave.

A friendly reminder that "mongoloid" is a racist pejorative, and that the government of Mongolia literally ran a campaign decades ago to get people to stop doing it.

Appeasement just means more lebensraum.

We need to stop pretending that nuclear armament is an excuse to trample other countries with this childish crap.

Cut their internet and declare their currency holdings forfeit. Ban all travel to Russia. Force all companies to divest their holdings in Russia. Eject them from the UN.

Force them to live alone and if China joins in, then start ramping up production and give 'em the same treatment.

These fucking business children just can't wait to stop being told "no" by developers, even if "no" is usually more of a statement of fact driven by the nature of the problem or its lack of feasibility.

So let's get AI to shit on them as proof that we know they're just wasting our time and money!

And people wonder why CEOs are getting shot. It's the same problem in every industry; the genuine few who actually get it are being followed by waves of fakers that think the numbers are all that matters and that everyone is a replaceable cog, and shit like Muhu.ai is just another pile of stolen homework, badly reinterpreted and used to ill effect so that this guy can call himself a CEO.

Sucks that you had to deal with this during the holidays, but it's good to know people like you won't just let this slide.

Why does anyone give a shit about a parasite's tier list? Charlie don't like Cadbury? Meh.

Oh, look, propaganda pretending to be a blog post pretending to be news.

Shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic at this point.

Manufactured consent masquerading as news.

Billionaire power is corrosive to maturity; you can make everyone do what you want, so why find common ground or compromise when you can just throw a shitfit and demand that people agree that pineapple is tasty?

Just think, they could've spent this energy making WordPress not suck for Kubernetes deployments instead, but that's fine, we can settle for being told what to think and feel instead.

Can't wait for Google to add a required login checkbox that says "I accept that Jesus Christ is the one true Lord and Savior"...

And I'm being downvoted. Cute.

Keep em coming, kids. Nothing I've said is wrong.

All of the apartheid, none of the citizenship!

Can't wait to be called a dirty snowback in my own city by my American masters!

Kinda crazy how the Fallout Bible is looking like a prophecy minus the nukepunk tech
