Oh they find a way. Bezos wedding was 40 to 50 million euros.

Same story. One year ago. That and stopping drinking are some of the best choices I've made in a long time.

I still use reddit occasionally for its smallest communities where I know I'm still interacting with humans. I assume the top posts are all bot posts with bots flaming bots in the comments. Everyone's time is worth more than that.

That's great that AIPAC had a backup plan

Ro Khanna, Hakeem Jeffries and of course Nancy Pelosi.

They're acting as close to a controlled opposition as ever before.

If performative ethics were an Olympic sport..

This applies mostly to WASPs and Catholic imperialists, wouldn't say all Christians feel that way.

This is almost certainly some dude in their basement playing out a stereotype to stoke fear.

Its has also been shown to improve survival in metastatic colon cancer. Agree that this is a poor example.

I'm dumb, password is passcode in this case. Just don't include any letters lol.

So.. How do you set a passcode?

Perhaps, we often assume these transformations to be inevitable in hindsight, we as humans are biased to see things that way.

It isn't taught because they feel it was worth it and would still have an empire today if they could.

The West goes on and on about its moral superiority when the truth is its entire social structure is predicated on white supremacy, labour exploitation and the destruction of nature. Unfortunately the entire world will have to suffer for that, even if the benefits have only been experienced globally over the past few decades.

A lot of young white men in Western countries are turning to fascism because they feel that they've lost privilege relative to their fathers.

What does the future hold? Only time will tell. One thing we do know is that every superpower falls eventually.

For better or for worse will be the big question, especially since it's a major driver of climate change which may result in our extinction. In any event the world has been set on this path by the West so we will have to see how it plays out.

I don't think its best to want for war in the most militarized nation in the history of our planet but definitely take your point that there are lessons Americans are unaware of due to the benefits of their geographical isolation during WW2.

Making laws with the intent they will be broken is different from having an understanding they will be broken.

People break speed limits every day. There is no intent they will be broken but an understanding that it will happen. Overall though, people obey them and roads are safer as a result.

I feel that parental responsibility and carefully crafted regulation can coexist to protect children. Device makers can also make it easier to access such settings or a "kids mode".

I think most parents know techbros have created an internet that is generally not safe for children and do their best to take measures to account for that. Any system that empowers parents to do that is welcome.

Kids today are not tech savvy. UIs are streamlined and bugs are much less common in popular apps so they have to do less self directee troubleshooting to learn from.

Regulation doesn't always have to produce absolute prevention, even strong deterrence can be impactful.

We've seen how excessive porn consumption impacts the development (particularly of boys) so increased regulation is a thoughtful move.

Fascists are a threat to all life, including those that they define as their ingroup. They just feed them into the military machine in perpetuity. Totally on board with an antifascist Thanos.
