I hope the ghosts of hundreds of thousands of murdered Japanese civilians haunt you for the rest of your life. thank fuck even the post-1945 US government isn't as bloodthirsty for war crimes as you are
"free folk" is a weird way to describe the US/UK/etc., given what civil rights in those places were like at the time, and the fact that the US now has the highest incarceration rate of anywhere in the world (and a prison system that kills a higher percentage of prisoners than the gulags in the USSR did).
what's your evidence that
a) the US got involved in the second world war for any reason other than to fight communism (US businesses continued to trade with the Nazi regime right until the end of the war),
b) that the US had any capacity to push further east than they did,
c) that anyone in the USSR wanted their "liberation" (polls in all of the places you mentioned had huge support for the USSR all the way to its dissolution, and even the CIA admits that calling Stalin a "dictator" was misleading propaganda
all of your downvotes - many more than the person you're replying to - are for trying to claim that a system that's functioned as a pyramid scheme for most of its existence is not a pyramid scheme.
sure, I wouldn't say no if airbnb instituted a global 2-address-per-person policy 🤝
but not everyone's "inhospitable for over half the year" is the same, I know more than one person whose local community has been basically destroyed by second home owners, there were plenty of people wanting to live in those places full-time but they were priced out.
huh, thank you for leading me to find out about organocobalt compounds, and complicate my understanding of organic/inorganic chemistry. I still that fits the simple definition of "organic" = "contains carbon" that most chemists would use, though.
somewhat with you except for the "2" - if you agree that taking homes out of the housing pool to run mostly-unregulated hotels is bad, why allow even one per person?
it requires a paid subscription now, it's not outrageously priced but it feels like it kind of goes against the ethos, and a lot of people have moved to alternatives like bewelcome
JFK - oversaw massive expansion of the US military and laid the groundwork for the Vietnam war, started a military alliance with the Israeli government, helped fight tooth and nail against Black civil rights except for some minimal concessions, promoted a giant tax cut for the rich, etc. etc.
how you think the USA has a moral or legal right to prevent people from entering the country, while denying native american / first nations claims for land or reparations?
I have a lot of questions, but this is the main one
your second linked article begins "The newest are much larger than they used to be".
the abject state of the USA car industry - that a "mini" is smaller than the even-bigger, also ridiculously over-sized cars on the road - does not change physics. or justify why you feel the need to choose between the terrible options that are the latest models offered by homicidal car manufacturers
also another sad example of how arbitrary the word "natural" is. LSD derives from the (very "natural") ergot fungus, MDMA from sassafras - but I guess they're not included because [mumbles something about test tubes]
"inconvenience me and I might murder you with my car" I hope you're getting a lot of money from the oil tycoons in exchange for being one of their brownshirts
