If you follow the links, they refer to copy pasta’s of hatefull stuff including swastikas but no breakdown of what is counted, the use of the happy merchant (a meme with an antisemitic origin used to convey greed) and the use of pepe the frog in profile pics (pepe is a symbol of hate according to the ADL).

The issue I have with the whole here is that I don’t subscribe to the premise on which the analysis is based.

IF you assume pepe is a hate symbol, then each case it is used is an expression of hate and furtherance of that hate. I however reject the premise that pepe is a symbol of hate.

The use of the happy merchant is a bit more of a problem, because I see the antisemitic message it has. However I also see a lot of stupid people that don’t… and have seen the image used (probably in antisemitic context referring to greed) but people associate it with greed primarily… so this one is an issue, I think I refuse part of the premise, namely that the antisemitism part is a dominant factor when the image is used.

These are the 2 main examples, a lot more in the report that have similar caveats.

Yeah, it’s an interesting list.

Well the companies reliant on chromium can fund the non profit that maintains it as a stand alone org instead of Google deciding. Hell you could even argue they should fund a non profit that finances several browsers.

That’s fair. I’m from a small country with a very high charge station density… so for anything local it’s a no brainer. Plus I have a driveway to change on.

No we don’t have a free market and we should not want one. A market completely devoid of regulations ignores reality.

Was about to comment, this guy should be at the front section of the line.

Nope, here a lot of people are wising up too. And he is constantly fighting with unions. His company will be oblitherated by the Chinese EV companies.

And Cybertrucks won’t pass certification here.

A friend who works and lives in Thailand told us that ladyboy is a fairly common naming used there.

Alternatively Europe levies a security tax worth 2pct of Switzerland GDP.

The machinists got their concessions, Boeing staff should be 1 big union… but divide and conquer.

And that is not surprising if you look at the absolutely eye watering lineup they have. Chine heavily invested in these companies silently and gave them the competitive edge. Now they pulled up the curtain and they can provide cara with 200km range for under 15k and cars with 700km range for under 30k they have super high performance models, mpvs, vans, trucks, busses… everything.

And next up… wind turbines.

That’s the second addition this week: Suspicious deaths of notable Russians

Wealth accumulates sure, that’s why at a certain point taxes should put a brake on that and above an even higher point it should be predominantly taxed. Inheritance tax should allow for some generational transfer but capped at a sane point. And fuckery using foundations etc etc should result in all of it being forfeit.

His statement is unfortunately untrue and part of the Russian narrative (although probably the poster is unaware).

Russia is deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure to freeze out Ukrainian civilians in the hopes they will force their government to capitulate. This is the modern version of carpet bombing cities. Their ballistic missiles are plenty accurate and the only types of weapons that can properly damage hard targets like powerplants.

Ukraine is cold now, and will be colder in a few weeks. By products of power generation is heat, and used for heating homes.

Russians target hospitals, universities, cultural centres and locations with a lot of citizens. They even do double tap attacks (hitting a civilian target like a coffee shop and then 7 minutes later… once first responders arrived hit the exact same place again).

A random housing block far behind the front might be deviated ordenance… hitting powerplants with a kinzal missile is not.

The long range missile shackles where just taken off by Biden.

Such a rubbish stance. People want to be usefull. So if the basics are met companies will need to make sure they are not exploitative shitholes like they are now.

Absolutely there is a risk, but this risk is created not by inherent lazyness of people but the shitty/dangerous/ unfulfilling/soul crushing jobs, shitty middle management, asshole atmosphere and the hustle required. You have the effect right but the cause wrong.

This would in practice mean that shitty jobs need to pay a hell of a lot more… which is good. Then the MBAs can figure out if making the job less of a hellish place can cause them to pay less and where break-even is.

So tax trusts…

Treat your employees like family, exploit them.

No need to confirm anyone. Mike Johnson is in Trumps pocket and just send the Senate on recess so trump can appoint who he wants.

That way they can all wash their hands while doing nothing about it.

In all fairness, the US had defunct laws from the 1700 on the books no one bothered to repeal… guess which laws will now be used by the Trump administration.

The fact these laws where still on the books just proves their point… they will just now eliminate laws they don’t like… like child labor laws.
