Starlink has been criticized for filling the sky with satellites, which will become space trash. Iran is clearing space of future garbage.

One day the people running this factory will be tried alongside Netanyahu as collaborators.

Unfortunately the USA does not refine its own oil. It sells it and imports and refines foreign oil. Changing or replacing oil refineries stateside to refine domestic crude would take billions of dollars and years to construct.

If you think China is first, you’re drunk on the Kool-Aid. The global economy is headed towards another depression and US citizens are seeing debt default rates at record levels.

It feels more like the Canadians attacking Iran than it being a just resolution to a tort case. Have the Canadians done this to any other country? I know the US has held and tortured plenty of people during the war on terror and I can’t recall any US assets being seized to pay victims’ restitution.

The government is preventing gas prices from rising. Not gonna end well when they run out of their reserve supply and the market begins determining the price again.

Absolutely not. The US creates war through coups, military intervention, and puppet states.

Left to their own devices, many states would have socialist governments that focus on their quality of life, whereas the empire is purely extractive.

Currently the US is going after several Latin American governments. These states would be better off without US interference. This is just a fact.

Attacking a reservoir is illegal (war crime) as it is a piece of civilian infrastructure. All attacks on civilian infrastructure are crimes of war and can be punished under the Geneva Conventions.

I doubt Israel can handle a Turkish blockade in addition to being bombed by Iran.

Pokémon Go’s parent company, Niatic received money from the CIA’s In-Q-Tel investment subsidiary. The Israeli military banned the game on bases when it was released. It was always a security hazard. Now it’s too late to do anything about it.

I’d like to think everyone gets the worst of all worlds. Data centers get the water and cause mass migration. The rich fail to manifest Skynet and go broke, then spur on a civil war in a fight amongst each other for fiefdoms.

That sounds like a metaphor for oil and capitalism (industrial society), which data centers are a product of. Good reference. Maybe I’ll check out that game in the future.

The Japanese did this to themselves by speaking out against the only refiner of several rare earth metals.

Their nation depends on peace with China and they are now realizing they voted for the wrong politician, because this lady trying to remilitarize Japan reminded the Chinese of all the war crimes done to Chinese people under Japanese occupation. Completely expected development based on simple facts.

My guess is Japan will have to make some concessions with the Chinese to reach a deal or they risk losing a sector of their economy.

Something else, apparently. They would determine that in real time and launch after confirming that the other technology was facing significant backlash.

In theory the police want to investigate crime and eliminate suspects, but in practice they give up after making an arrest. The access to new technology or information change nothing about this practice.

This is why it’s important to curb these kinds of dystopian surveillance systems in the first place. They change nothing and give reach for further unwarranted intrusions into the lives of citizens. This has been seen as cops using these systems to stalk people.

Juche might be the greatest political philosophy of the 21st century.

Better use maximum leaverage. Cuba style sanctions on israel.

Pass sanctions, threaten allies and prevent fuel and all other goods from entering the country. Blockade Israel.

Metal detectors in schools are dystopian and nobody who works in a school wants them.

They don’t have the guts.
