" The excess funds initially allocated for the purchase will be reinvested into our philanthropic efforts that include business school scholarships for promising cult leaders, a charity that donates elections to at-risk third world dictators, and a new pro bono program pairing orphans with stable factory jobs at no cost to the factories."
This article is great top to bottom but ‘at-risk dictators’ made me cackle
I hope they do what the Colbert Report did, keep the inforwars name and let it be a right wing lampooning.
Reality is antisemitic, no making films about things that are actually happening!
Every time the price spikes I get the feeling its large holders cashing out while they can and the liquid from newcomers is available. Which would make it mostly a scam, kinda like the stock market but even more shallow somehow, as if the stock market wasn’t unrelated enough to actual production and very esoteric.
I said the same of Navalny, being high profile doesn’t automatically make your death a momentous occasion. Nothing changed, no spark, just more of Putins regime with one less member of the opposition. Even Lenin fled Russia when his enemies were trying to kill him, what good did dying do?
Did Newsom take a rightward lean once he started getting groomed for a president run or has he always been this bad? I feel like every time I hear about him nationally hes doing something scummy like that or rounding up homeless people.
Wild, thanks for the input, think im gonna try and read a little more about this and other rcv initiatives. Would love to be able to understand how they pass and fail in case my state decides to put it on the ballot in the future.
Was it too confusing or did someone spend a lot of money playing ads that kept saying it was too confusing I wonder. I’d actually love to hear what the local ads and media around that ballot measure were like if anyone is local to Oregon.
This article is literally why. Political outsider with popular policies won, do you know how much money a voting system that does this will cost the people writing those laws?
First Ranked Choice vote.
Elect Progressive.
Other politicians: ‘Okay that’s enough RCV for America’
I see interests colliding in the future and I’m curious to how it plays out. Mexico is clearly going to be much less diplomatically available for Trump, so long as he keep his same rhetoric and plans going. This significantly lowers the leverage US auto makers have in lobbying Uncle Sam to use diplomacy to keep Chinese EV plants out of Mexico. Trump certainly seems to be driving Mexico toward China, and his economic moves in his first term drove China to Mexico, these bridges are already built, many of the Chinese goods that he kept out of the US simply went south.
Unironically probably something like that. Nature will take what we give it and keep going best it can, the ashes of the old world will fertilize the new one, and it wouldn’t be the first time nature on this planet has done something like that.
Don’t be too modest, we will take countless species with us. Some are already relegated to museams due to nothing but human interference. Yes the giant rock will persist but we will disturb enough life to seriously jeopardize the future of many if not most forms of life.
They don’t even put the answer in the title, this is peak irresponsible journalism.
They’re complicit and they know it. Its better for profits this way.
Removed for calling out Israeli sportswashing. Gutless mod.
“Insinuating they shouldn’t be allowed because where theyre born is bigotry”
Is it bigorty when they keep Russians out of europe? Is it bigotry when Russians cant join sports leagues? You going to start deleting all those comments too? Becsuse from what I’ve seen it’s perfectly acceptable to be hard on Russia here because of their war. This mod action is hasbara and inconsistent with the way the rest of this community is moderated.
Theres no saving this planet is there?
Despite the US constant vilification of China, they seek to have just as much control and surveillance over you. The ruling class would LOVE if they could control a population the way Beijing does. We already live in a surveillance state. We can adress it or let it get worse but both parties allow and encourage these policies.
Sir, the ‘lesser evil’ is still running the government . . .
