this fucking bill includes a 100$ fee (that will increase matched to inflation) to declare asylum at the border. The government IS the cartel.

Now they have the funding for the Holocaust 2: El Holocausto (seriously its not funny tho and now is the time to prepare for a fully funded police state)

I think you may be underestimating just how many engineering folks have zero morals and find it 'fun' to build bombs and missiles and sensors. They don't require ethics courses for a reason

These nazi idiots are destroying US science, there is no upside. Reasonable people COULD have setup a controlled transition to some sort of public peer review and publishing system, but instead they are going to not do any of that and now RFK can continue to just post their garbage ChatGPT written fake reports on hhs sites directly.

switch to linux mint and all these issues poof away

I guess its up to us

there are very rich and powerful people who spend all of their 'working' time actively fighting against those things. They (clearly) would sooner support the construction of the fourth reich in america than give up profit streams like energy/housing/automotive.

damn homie are you the heritage foundation

How does one get into this? (I would like to do this)

Saw some video clip from "ice" getting beat tf up in a Haitian community. No guns on the civ side, but they were charging and tackling " ice" and not letting any of their people get kidnapped. love to see it.

its just ai agents all the way down

Current british colonies

Yea you should try reading them

no i am.

iirc...Lysenko (soviet agri-scientist - a shitty one) had convinced the party leaders that his newly bred 'winter-hardy' wheat breed was worthy of being planted en masse. It had worked well under ideal lab conditions but failed after several crop yields when planted in the field, and this created famine.

It’s true

I'm working through my own thoughts on this so please bear down with me here: If we replace the term 'billionaire' and just say 'rich' (since the 'billion' amount is incidental to the times), and replace 'money' with 'access to resources' (which is what money represents), then I would contend that the rich have access to more resources precisely because the poor have little to no access to resources. If the poor were to have access to more resources, it would then be because the rich have less access than they did prior. So I guess what I'm getting at is this: It is intolerable that they are rich, regardless of what they do with the power and access that comes with extreme wealth, because that wealth is directly the same wealth(and thus access to resources) that the poor do not have. [I'm not sure how I myself would even answer 'what level of inequality am I okay with' but I'm thinking it through]

The pollution comes from millions of cars, an industry forced on the people through decades of lobbying and bribery to eliminate the possibility of free public transportation, so that they could become richer. The pollution comes from products for clothing that are made cheaply as possible - at the cost of the environment - and extreme amounts of ad campaigns that purposefully change contemporary fashion ideals in order to keep fast turnaround on product and maximize profit so that they can become richer. Agriculture is corrupted by the rich so that it gets government subsidies in addition to maximizing profits by basing crop choice on profitability instead of sustainability, disregarding native species and planting unfathomably large fields of monocultures, squeezing the farmers themselves and funneling all the money to agri-business execs, i.e. they can become richer. Then they run ad campaigns saying 'everyone needs to do their part to save the environment!' which is clearly bullshit when the system itself is made to maximize profit, and not to maximize caring for the earth. Polluting the earth is profitable, and the profits flow ever upward.

yea you're watching that now

So what level of wealth inequality are you okay with?
