articles like this sound good until you realize that the grid often interconnects over multiple states. With pipeline infrastructure lacking. My guess is these gas plants are going to be built in states like Pennsylvania close to where gas

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the JnJ vaccine use the old vaccine technology compared to the newer Mrna vaccines?

The truth though is that when the generous pandemic stimulus ends, the labor shortage will also end.

Robinhood is expected to go public (IPO) soon. What does everyone think of the company now? I was going to invest but now I'm having second thoughts on it. Seems like the brand has been permanently tarnished by this situation overall.

I live in So cal and this is a super good idea. What many people don't know is that the cities have been big advocates for building Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU). These are smaller homes that are basically built in people's backy

This law is simply guised as fighting "hate speech" but in practice it is designed to eliminate political enemies.

My opinion is to abandon these "traditional" parties and go back to the fundamentals of what makes a society free and prosperous. Then vote based on that.

Still happening today. Except we call it cancel culture instead.

This is something that authoritarian regimes do to eliminate their political enemies through color of law. They create vague laws that only get applied to their political enemies. Really unfortunate to see this is the path Canada has gone.

The conspiracy nuts are crazy, I agree, but they are also opposed to oppression so they are our allies. Be wary of the "divide and conquer" strategy when it is being used by oppressive regimes and various governments.

Voters shouldn't be able to influence private landowning anyways since it violates private property rights. The whole point of owning land is so you can decide what to do with the land. If you want to decide what to do with someone&#x2

Just another scam like MLM where you get idiots to buy "equipment/inventory" to start their "business". The person doing the pitching is often just a sales man for the company they're saying to buy from.

Problem with gold is that it is also inflationary only difference is it is mines that "print" more gold instead of a central bank. Cryptocurrencies are better since they have geometric decay built into the algorithm to make them d

This is true but it is imperative that citizens have a reliable currency to use to do transactions. This is why I think it is imperative that we transition over to cryptocurrencies that are based on strong fundamentals that make money relia

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it but I would say a bigger problem is that the stimulus is encouraging people to not work which discourages production of goods/services. A lot of the inflation I've experienced it dir

except these people do go to other places and then people tell ISPs and the such to block those websites...see 8chan. Look at the controversy over platforms like parler and gab as well. This is why I think the ultimate solution is to have p

There are non-profit organizations or similar private organizations that are better suited for political activity. The workplace is not the correct place. I was also harassed by the "silence is complicit" attitude. Some other empl

Our work implemented a similar policy as well because politics was being brought up all the time and it was becoming a nuisance and some employees were basically harassing other employees. I have no problem with people being activists in th

Maybe figured that coinbase IPO would dominate crypto news for the day and any reporting on this would be drowned out, possibly?

If they want to launder the funds all they have to do is used a decentralized exchange to convert the bitcoin into something like monero. Monero has an encrypted blockchain and a bunch of other anonymization features. So once you convert it

There is lots of speculation now but I think eventually real-world applications will be made with crypto. At the very least, it will be likely that the bigger cryptos will start to be accepted by major companies to buy goods/services.

Identity theft and harassment. If you say anything politically that other people don't agree with then you could become a victim of violence.

Yup. That's why I pretty much deleted all my social media with my real first name, last name etc. Imagine getting into a facebook argument with someone and that person becomes so emotionally enraged with what you said that they go to y

Bingo. This is why I pretty much stopped using facebook and twitter. Total waste of time services. Since then my productivity has improved and my mental health has improved as well.

Ironically enough, I saw someone make a post on another site I read where they were saying in order to exploit cancel culture and doxing, they were working on a bot that would scrape public data from facebook profiles (mainly the name and p
