Indeed, they are human, and possibly under the right (wrong) circumstances some of us would exhibit some of the same traits. But we’re at a point that for us to keep being human for a while longer, they have to stop being human forever.

Weighing the cost to the relationship to a fascist state must be the dumbest math possible.

You know what they say, if there’s a will, there’s a dynamite

Is Gartner one of those sources that causes avalanches in the VC / tech world? Because it would be lovely to see this popping asap

Damn right! It was about time that we finally get the message (again I might add) and deconstruct the fake boundaries that were put up to divide us.

I don’t grasp basic economics. Can someone help me understand what Japan selling these US Treasuries would mean? Doesn’t someone else have to buy them?

using drinking water for street cleaning? watering lawns?

It doesn’t help that most people’s Ecological awareness is such a complete total joke that even for those who believe themselves as ecologically-minded ends at the point were they’re faced with, say, walking to take their kids to a school less than 1km away instead of going by car

This tracks. Whenever I visit Portuguese relatives I’m always surprised by how quickly they default to the car. Once, it was literally to just take us to a train station that we could see with our eyes from where we were staying.

Weren’t a bunch of politicians caught in a scandal there recently about deals with fossil fuel companies?
