Or Portuguese speaker... Holy what a hat!!

I'm already gone...

Looks like Ringo too...

oh cool, I'll definitely check it out !

Pretty cool :D

Wah, good for you!

I'm invested solely in an all-world ETF, so I'm getting hit pretty hard by the market crashes in the US. It doesn't really bother me too much, considering my time horizon, but still.

Good luck with your money!

Well, short-term, this is good. Clearly though, the US can't really be relied upon, considering recent happenings...

Nowhere did I claim that billionaires are good.

Of course, nor did I mean to imply you did so!

I do get your point, and, on the surface level, I agree. However, I think it's an inferior analysis of the situation.

Take your tiger metaphor; naturally, the rabid and hungry one is the most dangerous. Nevertheless, as you pointed out, they are both existential problems. I simply can't celebrate, be satisfied, or even be appeased by the knowledge that we're harbouring a hungry tiger, no matter what hungry and rabid tiger we may avoid by doing so. That's my point.

It does seem we're on the same page about this, to be honest... It's just that your initial reply seemed a little --- how do I put it... --- irrelevant? It's the Maxim of Quantity. We both agree that billionaires are fundamentally problematic, then why did you go and specify which ones are worse?

1. "Here's a bowl of cereal. By the way, I didn't piss in it."

Yeah... I get that, but why would you even bring that up? Why say that? It doesn't imply that you're someone that pisses in cereal, but it does give off that feeling.

2. "Billionaires are bad. By the way, that kind of billionaire is worse."

Yeah... I get that, but why would you even bring that up? Why say that? It doesn't imply that you're someone that thinks billionaires are good, but it does give off that feeling.

Do you pick up what I'm putting down?!

So? No billionaires at all are better than both cases. Bezos is evil too, any investment going towards him is terrible to. It's better than Elon, but all this is terrible. Also, Bezos is not trying to preserve the status quo, he's only trying to protect himself and his pockets, that's all.

Not sure about that, but I can't really say I disagree, fundamentally.

Well, Amazon isn't exactly great for the EU, but at least it's not Elon, IG...

shitgrabbler

It's nice that Elon is getting hit where it hurts. Hopefully the EU benefits from this.

I’m still using firefox on another device, and it looks like comments show no upvotes at all, regardless of the browser?

Well, IDK what to tell you... Both comments and posts show the upvotes for me when I hover the cursor over the number; this works on all browsers, for me.

Are you on mobile? That's the only thing I can think of, as IDK how it works with touch vs mouse.

Huuuuh... I'm actually using LibreWolf... So, I'm not sure that's the issue.

Welcome!!!

Have fun :D

Lemm.ee doesn't host it, but you can use it via Alexandrite.app! It's what I do... Alexandrite is so good!

You can, yes.

On Alexandrite, you can check it by hovering over the combined total. See image.

On Photon, the numbers are written on the buttons directly. See image.

Oh, so that's why I couldn't reply lol

I think I've heard of that lol Very cute...

...Tho, that's really lame lol There should be more pockets, if women like them.
