the liaison of laundering! say it aint so chief.

I work seasonal in retail and it’s a pretty mixed bag this Christmas. The haves and have nots are easy to spot. I agree about half my customers are hurting.

I’m doing my part!

Absolute clown show of a prosecution. Can’t wait until we can dissect this one with hindsight.

I don’t believe any of that lol. I’m just pointing out that newsom is using his limited television time to proposition the 1% and not the 99% because he’s positioning for a presidential run. So I mean just keep throwing up oligarchs into government and let’s see how it plays I guess. Sounds crazy doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. Maybe if we just got a little more money next election we can win. And then we’ll start with those socialist policies and wealth redistribution away from Newsom’s donors.

I was literally stating my opinion on an article and it hurt your feelings. You commented and my response hurt your feelings. And now you’re projecting me as the faceless persons using politics to hurt your feelings.

Interacting with people is hard, maybe you should give up?

Are you OK bud? Do you really call me stupid and not even grasp the formation of your own words? Like having bad reading comprehension for your own thoughts is really something else.

Weird because I went and voted for Kamala last November. Newsom isn’t running for any office yet. He’s just being an online troll, and positioning. While I appreciate the attempt to update the political strategy…. Idk if being republican light is the answer. Here’s a strategy, try to win an election only on policy without billionaires funding you in a quid pro quo manner.

Oh, I’m super sorry I hurt your feelings, maybe if you weren’t strawman people no one would be so mean to you. I guess I’ll be more restrained next time. Or you can try, it’s never been my strong suit.

Here’s a policy suggestion. Remove citizens united.

Most of the political issues I’m dealing with stem from wealth inequality. That makes me a single issue voter. Perhaps that is childish.

Technically if you took out a bunch of bad loans the government would be bailing out the banks. Like 2008. Let’s ride!

FINALLY. Someone thinking about the billionaires.

lol, lmao even.

Yea, it would be interesting to have a global body like the UN working on this with public opinion. We can always be seeking a more moral and just world.

I’m in the USA: proof that a rich country will destroy their own history without much thought so ya it’s become increasingly nuanced as time progresses

Yea returning the stuff and allowing the origin countries profit off it would be nice. We lose a lot of history to war torn countries tho. Preservation has a cost and its own logistics. If you knew the item would be pawned off or destroyed; morally I’d like the history with someone who has the resources to preserve it and share it with as many as possible. International travelers can probably afford the hit. Presuming the effected people you describe can afford to travel.

That’s generally how you want to set up your tourist attractions. They provide entertainment and draw for residents and you pass upkeep costs onto the visitors.

I know right. Sorry had to do it to em.

AI replicates human speech. Humans replicate humans. Humans interact with AI. Convergence.

And it’s a problem that should have been addressed but a large part of the economy depends on these bots to generate rage for views. So no regulations coming soon because facebooks bottom line or what ever
