How was this not obvious when the panic set in with the pandemic.

It’s never about productivity, it’s always about increasing value.

Is it a multi species pandemic yet? I missed 2020-2021 so bad. I loved not being around people.

The amount of technical correctness in this post is out of this world

Man, Mao’s policies got so many people killed that “only” 3-4m people died of famine.

He’s got an incredible kill count.

This is making my brain hurt

That’s one thing I appreciate about Lemmy. Without a doubt you are all people of logic.

For a moment, I thought “hmm. What if we all said ‘No, I shot Brian Thompson’” sort of like what happened in Spartacus, but then I remembered that all 6000 slaves or whatnot were executed

The act must be committed with the intent to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion

No, see, that’s clearly false. The civilian population did not get intimidated or coerced by fuck and all, and the government wasn’t threatened.

So, nope. Not guilty.

I believe the test was done off the East Coast of Africa. It was actually recorded on the nuclear detonation detection satellite. It may also have been a joint operation between South Africa and Israel.

Cyberpunk dystopia, but without the cool ass shit, just a lot of ways to die horribly.

The types I have worked with and personally been:

Coincidentally there are 6 down votes on this post as of now lol

I mean I can give you the charts that show the split happens right around the time Nixon ends the gold Standard in 1971.

Yes, that Nixon.

I really need you and everyone else to know that the gold Standard was holding down inflation. The massive wealth disparities we see now are because of the US dollar becoming fiat.

The quicker we return to a standard of any kind the quicker things go back to normal.

This is not their intent. They want ownership of property, not gold. Property is the only thing in true demand. And only the wealthy can afford it.

Ah, yes, the holy Trinity.

The only thing that made less sense than a virgin birth or resurrection.

It still doesn’t make sense. Like from a narrative view either. It doesn’t help the story, or the belief it’s just a useless… Thing?

Even if he was rich, he did what we’re all thinking most of the time about the ultra wealthy and apparently because he was thinking it too.

I think the title of martyr can be applied to a prisoner as well. Usually a prisoner that isn’t allowed to return after his time is served. So even if they don’t kill him, the longer he’s held, the more of a martyr he is.

I’m surprised they haven’t already. They have said things like calling this extremism etc.

Unfortunately, that may backfire worse than they think it will. The moment they identify supporters of what he did as terrorists, then a lot more people suddenly become immune to further propaganda towards terrorism.

The smart thing for them would have been to shut up about it.
