Should we include the health/sanitation implications of all the horse poop?

It also implies that we can keep the treadmill going forever even though AI investments aren’t producing anything of value. In reality the more we pour into unproductive investments, the bigger the crash will be when it comes.

Hopefully aid can too. Most people support that also. Restoring it certainly wouldn’t lose any votes for the D’s.

If it makes you feel any better, DOGE also cut cancer research which has both domestic benefits and domestic support. The idea that society’s benefits flow from billionaires and that government is waste needs to be exposed. One of our major political parties is devoted to implementing that bs.

No way. I’m saving my capacity for tonight.

The same reason WaPo didn’t fact check its conservative columnists. The same reason conservative candidates refuse to be fact checked. Once you fact check them, these arguments fall apart and the platform loses its ability to claim that it’s representing all sides of the controversy.

And look where we are.

Not sure this counts but I’ve seen Jerry Nadler give the prayer for our country at shul on Yom Kippur.

Not impressed. My observations imply that most bat-shit crazy beliefs can get at least 20% support in some public opinion poll.

I remember a time when Marines strongly opposed Nazis.

Having investors in a region control a country’s foreign policy. That’s always worked out well, hasn’t it?

I read that book already and enjoyed it. I’ll check out the blog post.

Ok. But is there a good source to learn more about what things were really like?

Your taking for granted the result of an argument that us laypeople didn’t even know existed. Is there a lay-friendly source to learn what was wrong with the idea of feudalism and what the real system was?

The idea that there was a massive, serious threat but that every single company was able to fix every problem so that nothing went wrong seems a little unlikely.

This is not hard. Journalists doing their job will count as woke and be eliminated.
