  • RFK Jr’s anti-vaccine group can’t sue Meta for agreeing with CDC, judge rules

  • Was just going to say that. Dude might have expanding head syndrome.

  • British hunting group to take legal action to become protected minority group. Hunters have good chance of obtaining same status as Gypsies and LGBT people, campaigners say

  • I mean, the look is actually good. Like the Nazis with their Hugo Boss uniforms. Criticize them for their actual problem: elitist animal cruelty. Boots and a little hat aren't really a problem. Let them show off the outfit and parade around.

  • Ukraine was biding its time: while outside analysts downplayed their chances, the Ukrainians were quietly planning an offensive across the Russian border

    Jump

  • Russia: Spends months trying to capture a random city 25 miles from their border. Ukrainian defenses were somehow "missing" (sabotage). Stalemate.

    Ukraine: Spends days capturing a specific important natural gas objective. Russian defenses are also missing (lazy). Success.

  • The acting regional governor, Alexei Smirnov

    Come on. That's a made up name.

    The Governor of Texas isn't "John Hamburger".

  • Hungary says Croatia is unreliable for oil transit, sparks outrage in Zagreb

    Jump

  • They are probably upset that Croatia switched to the Euro, and Hungary apparently uses the... Forint? What the hell is that?

  • Random text message

  • Ehh, maybe. Many people are trying as hard as they can, sometimes with undiagnosed mental issues. "Act like an adult" is only good advice if you are just lazy.

    Maybe "move to a cheaper area so you can afford a house" is better advice.

    How long do you think rich people live?

  • Riot police on standby across England and Wales for further far-right protests

    Jump

  • Ok man, whatever. Conveniently everyone in your story agrees with you. I'm sure they all clapped as you escaped dramatically.

  • You were talking about "no go zones" where women are supposedly attacked for not covering their heads in Paris. Now you're describing some random attempted robbery in Marseille. Those are 100% not the same, unless the carjackers had an ISIS flag or something.

    I think you need therapy for PTSD or something. Your experience might be affecting your judgement.

  • Lol. Yeah man. No one ever goes to Paris.

  • Mexican army acknowledges some of its soldiers have been killed by cartel bomb-dropping drones

    Jump

  • Sandoval said the army continues to encounter far more road-side bombs than drone-dropped ones.

    The Jalisco drug cartel has been fighting local gangs for control of Michoacan for years, and the situation has become so militarized that the warring cartels use roadside bombs or IEDs, trenches, pillboxes, home-made armored vehicles and sniper rifles.

    Uh, this is not smart. This is just asking for military intervention. There's a reason why the mafia never wanted to kill police officers.

  • It's not. Investors literally only care about money.

    Rich people don't have "class consciousness" because they all want to be better and richer than other rich people. That's what "keeping up with the Joneses" (or Kardashians) is. You don't want the Joneses to improve, because that hurts you.

    It's a zero-sum game at the top. If your neighbor buys a Mercedes, you need to buy a Maserati. Like I said, neo-marxism fundamentally misunderstands rich people.

  • This is not about running the best company or running the best economy. It is about maintaining class power and privilege.

    I understand your point, but neo-marxist perspectives like this fundamentally misunderstand what companies care about (for obvious reasons). No company cares about "class power" or "privilege" because shareholders only care about their own money.

    Their "class" is not important when it comes to investing. If they could fire all the nepo babies and use AI instead, they would do it in 1 second.

  • The funny thing is that there are executives who know what they're doing, but they may be outvoted by people who failed upward due to connections or a "good background" (ivy league, internship, etc.).

    I always thought "what does a brand name education prove?" This isn't the 1800s. Community college now is almost as good as Harvard was in the 1800s. Back then, just being able to read meant that you were educated.

    Also, what does an internship prove? You know how to carry 8 coffees at once? You can wear a cheap suit? No, it's all cover for connections. If businesses wanted the best people (say the top 10%) you could literally just set up a table outside a subway station and interview random commuters, getting probably 10 good prospects in a day.

  • Yes, it was. Tech led the downturn yesterday, but Nasdaq was only down like 2%. The "world" stocks (ex-US) are more volatile than the US. In my opinion (and Warren Buffett's), they are not worth investing in as ETFs. Only particular companies. The markets are genuinely worse than in the US.

  • That's not really true. All that stuff about "$50K toilets! $5K screwdrivers!" includes shipping and installation in a warzone. Try asking for that on Task Rabbit and see what price you get.

  • There were neighborhoods in cities in both of these countries that if you're a non Muslim or if you don't follow the strict rules like women wearing headscarves, you get harassed and attacked.

    Name the cities and neighborhoods or you're lying. It's possible someone mislead you, but if you repeat it without verification you're still lying.

    This is like the thing conservatives said about "cities burning to the ground" because of BLM. Whenever you looked into it, it was some rando not associated with any group. Or possibly a right-wing agitator.

    Stop repeating the game of telephone. You can literally go to Saudi Arabia without wearing a headscarf. You think Paris is going to be stricter?
