That is so right up there with some of the scummiest things CEOs have ever said.
The Heinz CEO tells us to “get used to it” about inflation.
And then Nestle over there, saying about how water is not a human right.
These rich fuckheads totally operate on a different world than our own.
Information is about as rapid as money exchanges. There’s so much going around because News is 24/7 and there’s so many outlets that it will burn out anyone’s minds trying to follow it all. It was like with the Hong Kong protests, it got traction for a while, then something else happened and it was dropped within weeks.
And we have all of these wikis in existence where the legitimacy of the articles written, are constantly challenged through the edits of those that believe differently in how it should be written to the reliable sources conflicting with those beliefs.
And we have generations of people who do not remember the time of certain events as they’ve happened where previous generations did. So it can be harder for someone who wasn’t born around the time of Pearl Harbor and WWII to relate and take in information as opposed to the one who actually lived it.
Then we take into account of instances of history being re-written by revisionists, some sections of history is white-washed, censored, redacted .etc
Top it all off with how incredulous and sensationalist projections the media reports that just shits all over it.
And we have ourselves one big, informational train-wreck where almost nobody knows what to believe. So what most people do anymore is if a news report aligns with their beliefs, they’re going to take it at face value.
She’s too doll-like.
Fuck off, Saudi.
America is really bizarro world compared to other countries and how they handle things like this.
It just seems like in America, you can fail upwards, con people and still get out filthy rich.
And in order to be forgiven within our online frathouse, we demand that you post several unfunny and recycled memes. We also require it that you join in comment chains to continue a series of unfunny, repetitive jokes that stopped being funny a decade ago. And lastly, we would appreciate it if you never uttered a single word that would displease our hivemind should we report you to our lord and savior, u/Spez.
“And because that my karma points are incredibly higher than yours will ever be, my words are like gold and yours is like dirt. I know exactly what I speak of and know everything of Linux on the back of my hand and in my sleep. Moderator, please displace the trash that has decided to speaketh within our vicinity as I make a fabricated report that you are just a filthy little ban-evader despite having only encountered you for the first time ever”
Hell, Lemmy can be this way too or some other instance somewhere else in the fediverse. It is almost inescapable.
Yeah whatever. You’re still full of it.
That wasn’t the problem.
The problem was, when 9/11 happened, the USA’s clear-cut goal was to find Osama Bin Laden, who was the perpetrator of the 9/11 attack. 2 years later, didn’t find Osama, but we wound up in Iraq suddenly because President Bush and his administration had a discourse based on lies that excused them to go to war in Iraq. During that entire administration’s time, Osama was never found or caught until 2011 by Obama’s administration.
The death toll was 151,000 ~ 654,965 and the numbers varied wildly so much that the wiki regarding the death toll can’t narrow them down. What do you honestly consider ‘genocidal’? Because, the USA went into Iraq for no purpose other than to revive the Gulf War and oil under the guise of “We know that you are making Weapons of Mass Destruction somewhere!” that accounted for those deaths, largely of them are civilians mind you that had no business in this.
And yet you think that’s not genocide. Well, what’s the magical number to you then? Since it is obvious you didn’t get it.
But that doesn’t mean he’s not going to shoot this down himself should it go on his desk.
I think she’s over-complicating this.
What should happen, is educating the young Jews about the wrongs of what their country is doing to the Palestinians. What Israel is doing now, is similar in vein to what the Nazis did to them many decades ago and using the same template of an excuse to do it, like the US did with Iraq back in 2003. So we have two major wrong-doings of history coming into play and what the young Jews need to do, is overwhelmingly oppose their government and their leaders that are enabling this.
There, straightened it out for you and yet you were a speech-writer?
A lot of horror movie franchises would get retcon or some installments would outright be axed.
Friday the 13th would not need to go on for 10 movies. Get rid of Parts 9, 3, 5, X and 8. This is now going to be a compressed, coherent movie series of 5 movies where we attempt to establish a better comprehensible story involving Jason. Kane Hodder is the staple actor of Jason.
Nightmare on Elm Street, going to cut out Parts 6, 5, 2, and 4. Compress and re-write the story while retaining elements of selected pieces to build off from. The remake will not have ever happened. Freddy vs Jason would still happen but it would be involving the original creators of both Nightmare on Elm St and Friday the 13th and Kane Hodder will star as Jason. No cop out ending like the original version got, but the victor would not only be decided by final battle but also body count.
Halloween, take out 3, 4, H20, 2, 5, Resurrection and all of the Rob Zombie directed ones. Retcon.
Scream, that movie series feels more like a trilogy movie so that’s what it is going to be instead of all of these unnecessary installments.
Final Destination, same thing.
Saw, same thing as I felt the series ended beautifully with three movies but went entirely off the rails in later installments.
Puppet Master, I would honestly keep to 5, get rid of all of the ones where they focused too much on the Nazi stuff and the clash they had with Demonic Toys.
Leprechaun, just get rid of the ones where he entangles with the Hood and obviously the space one and max the series out at 2 films.
Hellraiser, keep it to two movies.
Maybe but he will brand any Republican who is against him as, ironically, a traitor.
Because that’s who he wants on his team, people loyal to him, regardless of affiliation. But Republicans are easier to dupe so they mostly fell in line.
Democrats need to do more than “Vote for us because we’re not Trump!” because that has only worked once out of the past 2 very costly attempts.
Democrats need to stop toeing the line.
Democrats need to do a lot more than what we’ve seen them do.
I am sick of anything that sucks up to them. Sports are sucking up to them. Networks are sucking up to them.
You know, people who have hated muslims since 9/11, aren’t being given anymore reasons to let off on that gas pedal. It is just making it worse.
He is not going to sign this, lol.
If we know anything about Trump by this point, is that he’ll say things and do the opposite. He’s not signing this, guys.
The issue is that, UBI is a contested subject. It is the answer to what’s happening with automation.
And nobody is touching it but lets continue giving these few people all the money in the world and little leftover for everyone to fight over.
