What was non-sustainable about the levels?

Every 1% long-run increase in population raises income per capita by about 0.3% to 0.5% source

Genuinely I believe we should treat them like the USSR treated the Kulaks and relocate them to a desolate area of the the northwest territories

It’s not like they were neutrally phrased.

“Do you want Alberta to be able to lower immigration back down to sustainable levels”

Like, come on.

Yeah, anyone not a centrist would list their most hated female politician as Nancy Pelosi, easy.

Harris lost because the Democratic base was demotivated from inflation, gaza, and a media environment that convinced everyone that those help wanted posters in the windows meant unemployment was high.

I appreciate you sticking your neck out and posting this

The scary part is that whomever the next Republican President is, he’ll make Trump look good in comparison.

It’s going to get worse before it gets worse.

I live in a 100 year old building and would kill for those appliances

Surely It’s easier to rip out the carpets than to install new flooring

Utah, where you can sell unregulated ‘health supplements’ but can’t buy a beer.

At least it’s not another lord of the rings reference

Call a Doctor if your poo looks like that

They were going door to door in northern Ireland looking for brown people just a few months ago.

Pretty much all of European progressive tolerance went in the trash can after the Syrian refugee crisis.

Yeah, I think the total land used for cattle equals the entire landmass of north america too.

I love beef, I love hamburgers, but it’s pretty clearly unsustainable.

I suspect beef prices are only going to go up and they’ll never come down ever again.

I’d say it’s actually more embarrassing than that.

2016 he was caught by surprise that black voters in the south preferred the centrist candidate.

2020 the same thing happened to him and he did absolutely nothing to shore up that weakness. He learned nothing. He even got lucky at the start with the field of centrists splitting the vote, but eventually they sorted their strategy out and beat him.

Bernie just has the worst goddamn campaign instincts. I remeber hearing his campaign staff were all people who got rejected from the Obama 08 campaign, and instances where his door to door knockers would try to argue with anyone who said they weren’t voting for Bernie.

Add in that he endorsed Graham Platner, it’s clear he just never had the juice.

I think all the anxiety around AI would significantly diminish if we had trust worthy leaders in tech overseeing it all.

Like, I’d have trusted the google of the early 00s.

I think something like 80% of the Israeli public thinks they’re not going hard enough in Gaza

“Far-right isrealis”

But you repeat yourself
