  • anon realizes we’ve been played

  • Not quite, stagflation requires both high inflation and unemployment which we did see concurrently during COVID.

    But it also needs low or negative economic growth which again we did see during COVID but growth and employment have been up so we haven't had a long period of stagflation.

    The final key thing that I don't think is technically required is that the fed can't lower rates to drive growth because inflation is too high hence the economy gets stuck. It feels like this could be where we are heading but haven't quite been in a prolonged enough period to qualify for yet.

  • The general feeling of documentating things

    Jump

  • I agree with it not being about intelligence but laziness definitely makes this an issue even with docs

  • Woman says United Airlines crew tried to make her remove son's ventilator

    Jump

  • I would like to say it's due to empathy... But I stopped flying United just because it's objectively the worst airline. Planes are cramped, tickets are expensive, cancellations have been an issue, treatment is atrocious. It's shouldn't be hard to vote with your wallet when literally any alternative is better

  • Early Tesla investor calls for Elon Musk to resign amid stock slump

  • I should have included this but yes, there is a whole court case about this: https://corpgov.law.harvard.edu/2018/04/23/elon-musk-and-the-control-of-tesla/

    But he doesn't own Tesla. I was mainly trying to focus on that point.

    Though as others have mentioned he gets his wealth from many other sources. Small sourceless point but capital accumulation rarely occurs from ownership in a single company.

  • El Salvador closes 2024 with a record low number of homicides

  • As much as I feel for innocent's, the situation in El Salvador was bad: https://images.app.goo.gl/WWrXq7TXQWvqnuaV8

    I feel like as harsh and authoritarian as Bulakes plan has been - ignoring mass violence on your people impacts a much greater magnitude of innocenta

  • The early vote doesn't reliably predict results

    Jump

  • I don't think you understand statistics well enough to speak on this.

    2016 Presidential Election – Predicted Clinton over Trump with 71.4%.

    The above for example was showing outcomes of simulations. Many polls reported way higher outcomes for Clinton and he was one of the few models showing a trump outcome and Trump's path to victory was in the simulation results. This wasn't a fail but a success of his model

    Like when you are told that in a coin flip, heads is the outcome 51% of the time and hear every coin flip will be heads

  • New Yorker’s ‘Social Media Is Killing Kids’ Article Waits 71 Paragraphs To Admit Evidence Doesn’t Support The Premise

  • Common thing said but pretty stupid. Most scientific discoveries are grounded in figuring out anecdotal phenomenon. This is even more true for social sciences

  • It is - it's a super affirmative position. It takes an extreme position within the sphere it's trying to criticize to make an exaggerated point to attack. It's literally a classic strawman.

    Your follow up is in the same vein. Its empty rhetoric

  • Those poor plants

    Jump

  • These arguments are exactly why people hate vegans. It's nonsense.

    Not only do you jump to an insane straw man. You showcase that you ignore a clear increasing contradiction around your world view and choose reactionary nothing.

    If you care about life realize the harder question. If you care about the environment realize clear inefficiencues. Currently, you showcase nothing more than crude thoughtlessness.

  • I think the way I would phrase it is that they are very consistent in their belief that there are clear lines for defining gender.

    But that view breaks down the moment their definitions have to engage with reality and they are faced with the difficulty of actually making thos classifications when faced with biological realities.

  • Communism is a form of socialism. If you think socialism is a single ideology, then you've only read the spark notes for either.

  • Israeli attacked in Greece, assailants flee after seeing his cross

  • Beating Jews and firing rockets at Jews for the reason of them being Jewish is antisemitic. Despite Hamas absolutely being antisemitic, launching rockets at an occupying state killing your people is not. Americans criticizing their government for giving money to a foreign etnostate attempting genocide, also not antisemitic.

    Hope that cleared things up fascist!

  • I'm still curious why the comment then though. Without any further context it only seems to serve to imply the story is false.
