It’s always been a class war. The billionaires have been using the news media they own to keep us from figuring out where the REAL source of our pain comes from.
If they can keep us distracted with bullshit and fighting among ourselves, then they can keep running off with all the f*cking money.
I’m here because Reddit got shitty. And I really wanted a decentralized platform, where one person couldn’t screw things up for everybody else. It’s a lot harder to “take over” a social media platform when it’s spread out over 600 Instances in many different countries.
There are many parts of the government that are not SUPPOSED to be “run like a business.” How much money did the Navy make this year? How much money did Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security make this year?
Of course, the answer is that they’re not supposed to make money. Those institutions exist to defend the nation and to make sure ordinary citizens have an alternative to dying in a ditch.
The rich have special access to the legislative machinery that the rest of us don’t. The end of real democracy in this country began with the Supreme Court’s “corporations are people / money is speech” rulings. Ordinary people can’t compete with the influence that billions of dollars of bribes brings.
You’ll probably be making lots of changes to your computer over the next couple of weeks, so it’s a good idea to use TimeShift to make system snapshots. (It works like System Restore in Windows). It can even rescue an unbootable system. Just boot from your Linux Live CD / flash drive and you can run TimeShift from that.
Dear FBI,
He calls himself a "socialist " a “revolutionary” a “man of the people” despite being born into obscene wealth and having nothing in common with “the people.” This is the guy who said, “America deserved 9/11” and has no problems with “imperialism” if it comes from China.
Of course, you don’t have to take my word on any of this. There are plenty of examples of Hassan on YouTube, being a complete dick.
Intel should have pulled it’s 13/14 Gen chips the moment it became clear they had serious problems. Admit you screwed up and fix it.
Continuing to sell something you know is crap is a long-term reputation hit you are NOT going to recover from.
There’s nothing “leftist” about Piker, no matter what he chooses to call himself. People need to pay attention to what he does, not what he says.
ruling that Musk had individually “controlled Tesla” and dictated the terms of his compensation to a board that didn’t fairly negotiate.
I’d like like to know more about the makeup of this “board” who I assume were all hand picked by Musk.
I think “the needs of the business” include firing managers who make stupid decisions.
The “Buy American” companies will raise their product prices to match the foreign companies hit by tariffs. Governments and corporations NEVER pay tariffs. They pass on the tariffs to consumers in the form of higher prices.
I stopped taking the Nobel Peace Prize seriously when both Kissinger and Arafat won them.
“So what about the fossil record?”
“Dude. God put fossils in the ground to test our faith.”
“No. I think God put YOU here to test MY faith.”
When are people ever going to figure out that Tesla’s “autopilot” is a freaking scam?
It is long past time we got over our child-like worship of billionaires.
"Agit-prop is a KIND of science . . . " (Lionel Hutz, probably)
Some gifter who managed to convince the world that a banana was worth 6.2 million dollars has that money. They won’t be helping anyone but themselves.
I hope crypto-bro stole that 6.2 million from a cartel, and his next video involves people with machetes showing him how they feel about it.
Trump is NOT going to pardon the Jan 6th rioters. Everything with Trump is transactional. Those rioters failed to deliver the presidency for him. In his mind, they are “suckers and losers.” He can always find another group of idiots to do illegal stuff for him.
