Billionaires will still keep it afloat. They recognise the importance of media for mass indoctrination. Like with investing, they diversify. Even if one asset is not making money, there are profitable assets they could take money from to keep underperforming assets going because the latter has intangible value to the owner. Twatter isn’t even making money for Musk, but that doesn’t matter, it is its intangible value as propaganda which is important for him and other billionaires.

I am seeing more tankie posts recently mocking anyone to the right of them regardless of extreme. Maybe OP is only trying to counter that.

Despite the differences, ideologues from any group say the same thing: “But, but, it wasn’t real [insert favourite ideology]. It has actually never even been tried!”

Yeah, I don’t really care about what the rose-tinted form ought to be, I am more concerned about what it has been in practice. I can’t remember who it was but a Greek philosopher mentioned practising and observing a concept to see if it works in real life or not, or what could be rectified. This is important.

Ben Shapiro: My sister doesn’t have any armpit hair at all.

Also, it’s “The Independent”. I hate their clickbait nonsense and I refuse to actually click on any of their articles for the last ten years. This is like the left wing version of Daily Heil in terms of bad journalism.

My job is also tough and more recently I felt despair because of pressure. But I remind myself that I chose my career because of good pay, which could improve once I leave my shithole company.

If money isn’t an issue, I would pick a more relaxed job. There is plenty of snobbery against blue collar jobs, but they are the most relaxed jobs I have ever had.

I’ll go for Mike. Lana is no longer the prime Lana.

I think the Chevron CEO is feigning concerns so that oil companies won’t get a bad PR. Everyone knows they got record profits because there is talk of windfall tax after all.

You are the one trying to shove American football to everyone despite everyone not being interested 🤣

Starbucks coffee is shite. The main reason many people go there is because of the image of status symbol, especially in many parts of the world. The chain also ruffled feathers here in Ireland for setting up shop everywhere, driving down prices of their coffee to force local cafés to close. Then, when local competitions are gone, Starbucks raise prices to extortionate level. For these reasons, I boycott Starbucks. Thankfully, what Starbucks did in Ireland was nipped in the bud, locals prefer their local cafés.

Besides, countries with older café culture rail stronger on the overgrowth of big coffee chains like Starbucks. For example, the coffee chain in Australia never became popular enough. Because Australians see cafe culture as being more community based, where they chat to neighbours and baristas, a habit picked up from Greek immigrants to Australia long before coffee chains took the world by storm.

Aww…feeling insecure that not enough people are playing American football. As if Europeans aren’t big enough to even play rugby. Wait until you play against the bigger Eastern Europeans.

Because sometimes it is easy to give reasonable advice to someone because it is easier to look at a situation from detached view and thus no emotion involved. But apply the same advice to yourself, and emotions could come running.

Probably the angle and lens skewed the perception?

There is a lot of interest among Europeans to watch American football, but there isn’t really anyone playing it here. I think it’s because American football has more complicated rules than rugby 😂

I’m not sure about step 4. I mean, China is pretty strict with those kinds of things.

Facebook in Philippines is literally free to use even for those without mobile data. However, people there don’t realise they are the product. Or worse, they don’t realise they are guinea pigs for social engineering by techno-industrial complex.

You beat me to it. These people who have no empathy to the most vulnerable are pure psychopaths.

I mean, why not introduce this bill during any of the 4 years Biden was in office?

It’s the usual and convenient excuse that Dems and their neoliberal fans love to use. As if not having a majority in either houses ever stopped Republicans! If the Dems are really serious as an opposition, which they aren’t, then they have to make popular choices-- the kitchen table issues. And not only that, actually impeach and imprison Trump. I think America has to go under a fully fledged dictatorship for Americans to actually know when they see one; kinda like Brazil imprisoning Bolsonaro for trying to overthrow the election, and they are not letting up at all. Because Brazil suffered from decades of dictatorship. Americans did not indict and arrest Trump because they are still arguing whether or not he’s a fascist.

This should be in Uplifting News!
