Increasing antisemitism is actually an important tactic for Zionists as resentment and increased hostility to jewish people will make them more likely to move to Israel.

It’s aelf defense since they continue to make decisions that they know will kill people.

Because the EU has always been an austerity driving neoliberal organization dedicated to corporate profits.

The kid was likely 13. He should face consequences, but a 13 year old doesn’t have the mental development to understand the horrific repercussions for something like that. Throwing a 13 year old in juvenile detention for something like this won’t do him any good. Mandatory community service and probation are much more appropriate

See, my first thought would be to crack down on the tech parasites that are ruining out society instead of changing the law to accommodate them. But I’m just a dumb American who lives in a place where corporations are allowed to do whatever they want including killing whistleblowers, but I’m sure that the fascist parties taking power in Europe won’t do that.

There is nothing stopping the EU from going the DeepSeek route and just stealing the finished LLM’s from American companies. But the truth is that the EU shouldn’t want to have all these data centers training generative models. The us is already dedicating 4% of our electricity production to them, with people in states along the Great Lakes and Eastern seaboard seeing massive increases in their electric bills to pay for them (~30% for me in Ohio, ~75% for my brother in Virginia). I can understand if you are a technocratic neoliberal in the EU parliament that is taking bribes from tech firms why you would want this, but for anyone paying attention, rhe promises tech companies are making to burn hundreds billions of euros while gutting privacy, 🔏IP, and consumer protections at the top of the bubble makes no sense.

Maybe schools and social services shouldn’t be paid for by the local property taxes. That’s just a recipe for keeping the poor impoverished and giving all the advantages to the rich. Homes should be for living, not for investing

So tax homes on the value at purchase and adjust for annual inflation (across the board, not housing costs) and not the current market price evey X number of years after purchase.

Normal working people Don’t have million dollar mortgages

You can hold someone accountable when a person runs over a child or a pet. Who is the responsible party when a waymo kills someone?

I understand the Congo War has been the most deadly ongoing conflict since WW2. But the Apartheid regime was far from the only outside player in the war

“it’s very important that every one quietly starves to death while being beaten by police, or else the government will starve the rest of us and beat them up as well!”

Funding guerilla campaigns in the aftermath of imperial collapse of Africa is miles different than waging war against the 4 largest economies in the world like Germany did.

South Africa and Chile didn’t have the capacity to wage war on all major powers. Germany is the closest case study to what is happening in the US

Oh they are beyond just avoiding being furloughed. They are getting all their earlier unpaid checks plus all their overtime pay.

The aquifer has been totally drained by wildcat wells since there is almost zero access to running water in Jakarta. The draining of the aquifer has resulted in the rapid sinking of the city

Jakarta is quite literally sinking into the sea. The government’s solution was to move the capital to a new island

Friendly reminder that Canada was a global leader in various vaccines until Mulroney privatized Connaught labs in the 80’s. Profits over public health has been the MO for the last 40 years

Who’s he going to replace them with? There is already s massive shortage of ATCs with most airports below FAA guidelines prior to the shutdown.

They thought like would go up forever, and now that the line is starting to slow down, they gotta do a sacrifice to make the line look like it is still going up
